As I sat in my chair today, I thought: What does Everquest need more than anything? And like the small statue on the mantle above where I was sitting, the answer struck me like a ton of bricks. Everquest needs a nineteenth expansion. And before I could pull myself out of the concussion and contact Sony to pitch the idea, someone had already stolen and pushed it through.
First up: Everquest. Rain of Fear, the game’s nineteenth expansion, takes place directly after the events of House of Thule. Fresh from destroying a god, players will now find that crystalline shards are raining down on Norrath. If this means nothing to you, the expansion includes a level cap increase to 100, as well as thousands of new items, recipes, and spells. The expansion also includes new quests, raids, zones, and the ability to kill off halflings. And forget the rest of the notes, it’s about time those short demons got what was coming to them.
On to Everquest’s younger brother. Everquest II has unveiled its not-nineteenth expansion, Chains of Eternity. The expansion promises new items, a raised level cap, as well as new quests, a whole lot more loot, and new abilities to boot.
Both expansions are set for a November release.
