Task System - Whether you're on for a few minutes or a few hours, you can always advance your character by completing tasks using this new system!

All-New Content - New disciplines, AA's, items, spells, quests and tradeskills continue to make EverQuest the most-compelling and persistent online world ever created.

Extra spell slot

There's something rotten in the kingdom of Denmark

Fadaar · 08-04-2004, 04:35 PM

Going to cost a fuckton of AA I'm sure, Sony can go ahead and blow me in advance.

Dynalisia · 08-04-2004, 04:37 PM

I really dont care a single bit for an extra spellslot.

Thing I'm wondering about is what kind of retarded class names they came up with this time. I bet they're gonna a ranger an "Elite Archer" or something equally stupid.

DJk_zero · 08-04-2004, 05:06 PM

Sounds like they're taking many of the summit suggestions and rolling them into an expansion, for only $39.95 these changes the community has cried for - for years, can be yours!

At any rate, the game is tanking faster as every week passes. OoW reeks of desperation, putting it off a few months to help the current problems my ass. More like put it off a few months to mooch ideas so people will buy our next piece of shit.

A Lizard · 08-04-2004, 05:20 PM

Apparently fun gameplay, interesting new zones, non-sucky lore and varied mobs aren't included.

Disciplines and AA == content? That's such a novel interpretation. Even then I hope they're more imaginative than the incredibly lame copy-paste spells that are on lucy.

Jesus should strike dead the first born of every fucking idiot who buys another EQ expansion.

A bunch of high end guilds across all servers as well as some random people.

I belive this was one of them things that came out of the Summit.

But hey, we beta test the content anyhow, why not let us beta test the content before it goes live.

By "We" I would assume HoSS on Druzzil Ro. I have been wrong before though.

Amen! GoD was the last EQ product I'll ever put money/time into. I don't know why it took so long to realize that I'm paying to test someone's shit out.
