Out of an abundance of caution, all Altar of Malice mission quest givers have been despawned on all EQ2 servers. This started earlier this evening with Skrit, the Tradeskill daily mission giver but is now affecting all mission givers of all gameplay styles. Update: The in-game MOTD has been updated with this message: A bug has caused an issue with mission givers in Altar of Malice. All mission givers have been removed from the game. We will have them back as soon as possible. More as we have it…

Remember last July when SOE didn’t pay a domain registration bill? It was funny for a few minutes, but then we put together an article helping people Manually Map their DNS to access SOE Games, Websites, and Forums. When we posted this article, we asked everyone to PLEASE REVERT THE CHANGES AFTER 3-4 DAYS. Alas, people didn’t do that and have been experiencing trouble connecting to Daybreak servers lately. If you made changes to your Hosts file last July, please follow these instructions: Open your c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\ folder. Drag the “hosts” file to your desktop. Open the “hosts” file with Notepad, and...

Login Maintenance Continues; Don’t Get Too Excited About Double White Adorn Slots on New Heroic Gear
First up, this morning’s login server maintenance just passed hour four of its scheduled three hour window. The latest tweet indicates that there is no new ETA predicted… The general maintenance impacting logins is still in process. We do not have a new ETA for completion. Thanks for your patience. — EverQuest II (@everquestii) February 24, 2015 Also, those fancy new weapons we got with today’s update seem to have a few surprises. First, at least two of the spell autoattack Wand items lost their green stats somewhere along the way. Second, the new weapons have two white adornment...
If you’ve done the Shattered Seas signature quest line on a character or two and just don’t see yourself repeating it again, but yet you really want the ability to pop off adornments on your alt characters with the [eq2u]Adornment Reclamation[/eq2u] spell, you’re in luck. Three months after the launch of the Altar of Malice expansion, it’s now possible for a character who has completed the Shattered Seas signature questline (you must have earned the related achievement) to buy an HEIRLOOM version of this spell for their alts from the Ferrin Merchant in the tower near the Phantom Seas...
Today’s EQ2 Update Notes were posted yesterday afternoon, however a specific downtime notice for EQ2 was never provided. Meanwhile, a Daybreak-wide three hour maintenance notice was posted for 7-10am PST. Apparently we were assuming when we figured that US-based EQ2 servers would go down during the same time window as the Daybreak-wide maintenance. It’s possible that if you remain logged into EQ2 before 7:00am PST, you can stay logged in during the maintenance. PST: US-based EQ2 servers downtime — 4:00 ~ 5:25am Daybreak-wide login/account maintenance — 7:00 ~ 10:00am 10:30am ? EST: US-based EQ2 servers downtime — 7:00 ~...
