From Karen Bryan at Massively:
As Massively reported this week, EverQuest II Game Update 63 is inching closer to going live, and it’s bringing some exciting changes. There are new zones, instances, quests, and lots of dragons on the way. For old Velious fans, the return of Skyshrine will be a welcome sight, although there’s new danger and turmoil both inside the city as well as through the land that surrounds it. We’re beginning to get more specifics on what is included in this update, and this week’s Tattered Notebook offers a rundown of what’s revealed so far.
The Withered Lands
For those who love questing, the Withered Lands will offer over 100 solo and small group tasks. You can reach the zone by talking to the New Combine Flightmaster on the Thurgadin docks, and there are several quest hubs scattered throughout the zone. The Withered Lands is also where players can zone to Skyshrine, the second major zone included in the update. Lastly, the announcement describes the Withered Lands as having solo, small group, and raid content.
One side point, the author writes that Nagafen is still safe.
I have heard reports that, to the contrary, Nagafen has been killed, using non-cheat methods! From what I hear it was on Antonia Bayle, and that members of Equilibrium were involved, which should shock precisely nobody.
And yeah, his loot table still sucks. But it’s the principle of the thing… 😉
