I love my epics more than the next and its great to see some higher levels come into the game (through GvG). However, I feel it has really created a huge decline in the titan market. Great for GvG'ers and guilds who can successfully compete in GvG's along with the ladder market but titan epics are already at the lowest we have seen (mostly from titan doubler not really being doubler. x4 is really excessive imo and I think it should be 1:2 not 1:4 regardless of level). So I thought about how can we bring some of our most beloved epics back into being viable again and came up with the following:

Create a new titan that is some big disfigured blacksmith.

The titan does not drop an epic. They drop a component to create new epics from what we already have available in the titan epic pool. There are a possible 9 component drops of which each 51% kill or TKP can obtain just one random drop. One for each of the item slots.

With this item say for example the BDB (big disfigured blacksmith) drops a solid iron ring. This iron ring can be used in a recipe as a resource or item to weld with a lestus ring. Currently, its stats stand at +1 stam gain and +2 xp gain with around +25 stam. Once welded with the BDB item, it could say become +2 stam gain +3 stam gain and +50 overall stam. it is not necessarly doubling what is already there but adding a set amount to the item to just enhance it further to continue making it viable.

The BDB item can have stats on it maybe like +1 +1 just for something or more like the blank shield. I just thought maybe its a way to bring back in those items that were once so viable and now almost useless. Yes lower level players have access to them at more affordable prices but they sold at a loss to hunters and those who are paying big prices for them.
