And the next expansion is!!!

FAYDWERE AND ODUS!!!

There is also alot of hinting that the next expansion (September or October) will be Faydwer and Odus, and i color coded everything so you wont get confused!

THere is an elf in willowood for instance that ells you of a great war betweeen the elves and orcs, the high elf city is destroyed, and now all the elves live in the tree city of Kelithen

It was even in the lore for KoS

Tulfor snorted. "Aye, some vile magic back on Odus musta been unleashed what changed 'em. Someday if the seas are calm enough to go that far, I might jus' get to the bottom of that mystery. After I sail back to me homeland, o' course." (if you cant tell hes adwarf dwarves are from Faydwere)

In DoF they hinted to plane of sky, Shimmering citidel, harpies, Jenies and stuff the next expansion was Kingdom of Sky, now Kingdom of sky is hinting to Faydwere and Odus with that Quote and the Gnome crash site inBonemier is pointing to Ak'onon the gnome city

So for some background Dwarves, elves, and gnomes are from the forest continent of Faydwer, to the east across the ocean from freeport

Odus: is home to the Erudite, and Kera, A strange Continent, that was the smallest, with the stonebrunt mountains and the famous HOLE caused by an erudite civil war.

And there has been mention of Faydwere in all the lore for the expansions and the ad packs as ive heard, i dont read it all, really im surprised i know this much lol

Bah, So they are remaking their old ideas, Congrads for them, they should of done htis in the first place, why do you accept OLD CONTENT as new? It just doesnt make sense.

Go play Eq1 if you want GFay and Odus. The last thing this game needs is more splish splash zones with a new graphics model, and renaming it the same as the old. Oh wait thats the entire game. Nevermind.

This is just naother one of SOES mimicks to keep you paying the subscription fee, while they finish developing a game, that should of been like this at RELEASE. Sheesh.

Or am i the only one Outraged on how SOE told us on LAUNCH that the Quest for the Frogloks was actually in the game? Then months down the road, tell everyone that they just implemented it, after some people spent weeks searching...... These people should be sued, for violating the customer agreement.

sssshhh its ok, dont cry man dont cry, I'll silence my truths. But yeah, as you can see from the poster above, hes just not educated in the Arts of SOE... yet, Took me 7 years to understand their cruel ways.

Dude, you better stop smoking weed, its messing up your already messed up mind. Using old cntinents in a new expansion is not a conspiracy to keep us subscribing. You obviously have forgotten that EQ2 is in the exact same spot as EQ1, geographically. So how do new continents spring up, out of Antonia's ass or something. It kinda goes without saying they we are going to rediscover the old continents, bit by bit.

We shared one last night, you were wasted

Obadno · March 2006

Wow Monk, and all this time im sure most people have wanted Faydwer, infact most people love the idea of faydwere i know i do, i cant waut to see Kelithin again, and i want to know what happend to Unrest

You just cant find anything to complain about now, its quite funny

anarchyart · March 2006

Munk, you still on about taht stupid froglok quest? Try the PVP server today, how the game is now. It's really sweet, but bring along 2 gigs of ram.

Anyway. There will be a new expansion in the near future. They do need something to sell us. A reason to buy the expansion. A reason to pay another half year of subscriptions.

The easy way is of course "Add some zones, a background story and some new grind". This time it was 10 levels (easy) and 50 AA points (going to take a lot of time ). I doubt they'll increase the level cap to 80. They might, but I dont think so. Adding a new line to the AA tree and doubling the depth? More likely. Problem with the AA aprouch is of course added complexity. If the tree is deep enough you'll have 24*5 "classes" to balance. A mighty hard task indeed.

Another aproach could be 4 more character slots and totally new and uniqe starting zones for all races. Should keep people playing for a while.

Bobiin · March 2006

I would love to see kelethin again.

Nihilanth · March 2006

If you read the official forums, Faydwere and Odus would be a VERY welcome addition to the game and would make a whole lot of people extremely happy.

Sevenwind · March 2006

Oh yes Unrest, isn't it the zone that started the TRAIN TO ZONE!!! craze?

I would love to see Unrest, Mistmoore, The Hole, and everyone's favorite I'm sure... Kedge Keep. I hate that place!

Be kind of neat to explore maybe the ruins of Felwithe if that is possible. Should still be a good expansion if it true.

What kind of heritage quests items you think will come from there? Nightshade wreath? Dvinn's Dagger? Didn't Emp Crush drop someting too?

Obadno · March 2006

Yes, I hope kelithin is comming, i will live there, evewn if there are no player houses i will still live there!

I seriously doubt they will add more character slots. That would mean you don't have to pay for extra accounts, and SOE would NEVER allow a circumstance that touched on their desired profit margin.

Personally, I wish EQ2 would have been more of a world instead of a set of zones that didn't feel like a world. I mean EQ1 had zones, but it at least felt like a world. I never got that mapquest feeling from EQ2, but just a realization that if I wanted to go somewhere, there were several points that could take me there.

There was something great in the old EQ of running around at low level in areas you never should have been in. You really can't do that in EQ2 because of the way things are grouped and their aggro range. I kind of missed that. There are also almost no secret areas in the game unless you have gotten way up in level, and even there I'm not all that sure about that. With EQ, quite a few starting cities had secret caverns, and that was so cool, even if they didn't serve a purpose.
