    Coming this Tuesday, April 8th, along with the rest of EQ2's Live Update 44 is the Shard of Hate. It follows last year's Shard of Fear and Estate of Unrest free, nostalgia-drenched content updates. Unlike those other two, though, the Shard of Hate is a raid zone. EQ2 lead designer Akil "Lyndro" Hooper was kind enough to take some time out of his day to show us around the spite-filled roads and alleys of this small, deadly fragment of Innoruuk's demesne. You'll find the portal to the Shard of Hate in the dark elf section of Nektulos Forest -- go all the way east, then head north. You may see the Avatar of Hate lurking nearby, but he'll let you in. It's safe to zone in, but don't move around much; patrols come close to the zone in. Who rules the Shard of Hate? --->>>> %Gallery-19782%

    Pinski over at EQ2Flames brings us some news about EverQuest 2's new zone, the Shard of Hate, due to arrive in Live Update 44. The Shard of Hate follows last year's re-opening of the Shard of Fear. That zone brought single groups through one of EverQuest's most memorable raid zones. The Shard of Hate introduces the same sort of nostalgic goodness in juicy raid form -- though without the four hour corpse runs, we hope.Pinski reports at least six named encounters, one of which is a group of five named sisters. He also notes that the citizens of the Shard of Hate have some rather interesting damage shields. Read more of his perilous trip through Innoruuk's home in this first look at what is sure to be a fun time for EverQuest 2's raider community.
