JIRA Groovy Script example,  can be used with free plugin MyGroovy.
To apply script to the workflow:
1. Use  script as Inline or Registry (script should have Validation checkmark)
2. Add validator on Transition
Script check Custom Field "Epic Link" for Value, if value was not provided throws error and  blocks transition.

import com.atlassian.jira.issue.Issue
import com.opensymphony.workflow.InvalidInputException
import com.atlassian.jira.ComponentManager
import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor
def customFieldManager = ComponentAccessor.getCustomFieldManager()
def cf = customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObjectByName("Epic Link")
if(cf){
 Issue epic = issue.getCustomFieldValue(cf);
 if(!epic)
 {
 InvalidInputException error= new InvalidInputException();
 error.addError("Epic Link should be set.");
 throw error;
 }
}

I tried the above code . but its not working.

What i am trying to do is

if the custom field is not selected then it doesnt matter who is the user

but if the user is wtuscan "and" the custom field is selected to YES then it should allow to create ticket

So, that script will only allow the wtuscan user to pass the validator. I think you'd want something more like

import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor

def userManager=ComponentAccessor.getUserManager()

!currentUser.equals(userManager.getUserByName("wtuscan")) || cfValues['Some Custom Field'] == 'Yes'

That should return true any time that the user isn't wtuscan OR the user is wtuscan, but they filled in the custom field with the value of "Yes". Does that make sense?
