Written by Tipa
RoM’s classes include Warrior, Knight, Rogue, Priest, Mage and Scout (Ranger). If you’re an elf (the only player race other than human), the recent expansion added the Druid and Warden classes. Where’s the human love, huh? Once you level to 10 in your main class, you have the option of addin...

Meanwhile, back at the ranch Origin Systems…. Ultima Online Worlds, 3D follow-up to the spectacularly successful (but non-3D) MMO Ultima Online, has been canceled. Asked why this title, which would have taken the Ultima MMO franchise for the first time into the 3D arena, was canceled, Or...

Opinion: DOMO: Level 23 Thief/Musician, LFG

Written by Tipa
Let me back up. I’d unlocked the Musician job awhile ago, but had only played it just long enough to get the pet heal, then switched back to Thief, but now with pet heals and buffs. When I swapped back to Musician Saturday, my pet had leveled to 17 from adventuring with my Thief job, and so I went ki...

Opinion: EQ2: GU 49 Test patch notes commentary

17 Sep 2008 10:44:11 PDT

Written by Tipa
Spells which do not expire have been made uninterruptable. There are some exceptions which include spells which summon pets or have limited uses. This is cool. I’m not sure how USEFUL it is outside of PvP servers or as a shortcut to the Shard of Hate, but it’s good.

Opinion: The Best MMOs on the Market: EverQuest II

14 Jul 2008 07:26:44 PDT

Written by Ardwulf
I was never an EverQuest player. Oh, I was aware of it from the very beginning - it was seen as a corrosive element in the tabletop RPG community back then, an insidious and possibly Lovecraftian thing seducing away our players with pretty graphics and simplistic, childish gameplay. So it fe...

Opinion: Word Clouds, EverQuest and Levels

Written by Tipa
Stargrace’s peek into The Buried Sea expansion got me looking at the stuff they offer — even MORE armor sets! I have no clue whether we should work at some point on Dragons of Norrath armor, or hea straight to TBS armor, or see if Secrets of Faydwer has even ANOTHER set which makes the older stu...

Opinion: EverQuest: Down at the farm

Written by Tipa
The introduction of Defiant armor to lure people back in with top-of-the-line, raid quality armor, has changed all that. In a stroke of a pen, SOE signed away any reason at all to explore or try difficult dungeons. Defiant armor is SO GOOD that going to Nagafen’s Lair for the 40-ish armor drop...

Opinion: EverQuest 2: The Next Expansion

03 Jun 2008 08:49:34 PDT

Written by Michael
New Class: In the same vein as the Clockwork, a great addition to the texture of EQ2’s lore would be a “Gunpowder Soldier” class. A group of gnomes somewhere in the shards of Luclin have perfected the firearm over the last many years, and are now training all comers in its use. It’d be a unique ra...

Written by Michael Zenke
Filed under: Fantasy, EverQuest, LoreEverQuest's long and storied history includes a lot of interesting nooks and crannies. One of the most influential - especially for the nature-worshiping classes of EQ - is the mini-zone of Surefall Glade. The game's official site has a lengthy revi...

Opinion: TurpsterVision: Return of the King

29 Apr 2008 18:00:00 PDT

Written by Mark Turpin
So down to business, review time, and let me just state that I don't like giving bad reviews -- not because they can upset fans or developers, but because it means I've had a bad time reviewing the game in the first place. EverQuest was the granddaddy of them all before World of Warcraft came al...

Opinion: Using EQ2's in-game browser to file petitions

20 Jun 2007 00:03:22 PDT

Written by Karl B.
Now that an in-game web browser has been added to EverQuest II, filing petitions within the game has become a whole lot easier for players. If you haven't tried it yet or don't know how, here's a quick little how-to. Easy, eh? Try it out the next time you're playing Sony Online Entertainment's...
