How to make my story feel more epic

​

Just as the title says. I have tried (am trying) to write an Epic Fantasy series, but it just doesn't feel epic yet. The ideas are very much high scale, but they don't feel epic to me, at least not in the same way as some other Epic Fantasy series do for me personally.

This brings me to my current question. How do I get that epic feeling for my story? because so far, I can definitely think of some epic scenes and moments, but those are a few. The first truly epic moment only really happens in book 2 at the end, in my opinion, and the others only happen later.

I guess maybe I could fix the question and ask how do I make book 1 feel epic?
