EQ2
Posts about EverQuest 2, by Sony Online Entertainment in general.
Today Sony Online Entertainment set up a preliminary poll for their next Fan Faire. Now, as anyone can guess, I can hardly wait! Unfortunately though, there are three options in there for the month of June, in which I am scheduled to graduate, so I would not be able to attend. Soo, all vote for Vegas! (Well, if you really don't want to, I guess I can't blame ya if you choose otherwise.)
Aside from all that, I'm sure it's going to be great fun once again. I know it was last year. If you've never gone to a Fan Faire of...
Soo, I have been bussy since the last time I blogged here, but I figured I would make another post to give you all an idea about what's going on.
Mainly I have been playing EverQuest 2, in the new expansion Rise of Kunark. I managed to get to level 73, and go around a couple of the zones. I must give kudos to the EverQuest 2 team, as this expansion is awesome! Very well done. Lot's of new quests, including some big general quest lines, and quite the faction game around it. So far I have managed to do nearly...
Well, last week EverQuest 2 had their game Update 38. I have to say, there's some things I like about it, and some things I don't. To start off, there's the new "intro" to Kunark, which has you travel on a boat. Definitly kinda neat. Nothing complex or mindblowing, but a nice little tidbit that has you help discover the way to Kunark. If you havn't tried it out, even though you're playing EQ2? Go try it out now ;) It only takes like 10 to 20 minutes to finish it all the way through.
The next piece is something I...
Well, sort of. Things have slowed down, since school started again. Well, depending on how much you can name the final year in a Bachelor of Science "school". Basically it's just finishing up stuff, mopping it together. Then there's the internship that I'll be doing at the PlayLogic Game Factory.
So, all in all, busy busy busy arranging stuff.
Ofcource all the while still playing games. Had some fun in Vanguard in the beginning of the week, and tonight I've been playing EverQuest 2 and Legends of Norrath.
Legends of Norrath, by the way, finally launched this Wednesday. They reset all the scenarios,...
Yep, the next Game Update is coming up, and there's going to be more changes to the achievement system. This time the subclass specific ones, so there's a lot. Though there's some great stuff coming, there's also one group who's not as happy with all the changes: The scouts. And with that, to some extend the fighters. This because they're hitting hate transfers accross the board with the nerf bat. I say this will affect raids slightly, people will just have to adjust to the new settings, there's no man overboard.
Anyhow, on to the achievements. They're in the second post on the...
With GU36 we'll be seeing some changes to the Achievement system. I thought I'd give them a quick look per class:
Bard:
Overall buffs, there's a couple in there that are changes to the way things work. For instance Shield Focus (changed to Lend Shielding) now allows you to block an attack rather than get you stun/root immunity. Harmonized shot (changed to Messenger's Letter) now increases someone's hate rather than lower yours. These changes look to be more in favour of grouping and raiding rather than soloing, but it should add to the class overall.
Brawler:
Some major boosts in this tree, with the...
