EverQuest's Ancient Heroes game update brings a "classic EQ" experience
There are a lot of players and former players of EverQuest that would love to see a server that is locked down to just the first few expansions, or maybe none at all. While the latest game update, Ancient Heroes (which goes live today) doesn't bring a new server, there will be a new "classic EQ" experience introduced to the game. An NPC in the Plane of Knowledge will transform your character into a level 50 (the level cap once upon a time) decked out in launch-era equipment, and send you off to fight the Kobolds in Nagafen's Lair or the Frogloks of Guk -- or even to raid the old dragons, Lady Vox (pictured above) and Lord Nagafen. There will be new rewards waiting for those that choose to take up arms in old-school fashion.This character morphing is the primary focus of the Ancient Heroes update, but in fact, there is more character morphing to be had with some new Marketplace items. A Potion of Amnesia will allow you to change your character's name, and a Potion of Disgenderment will flip their gender -- both changes are permanent, though you should just be able to buy another potion if need be. The Witness Protection Pack combines the two new potions, for those situations where you've really driven your reputation into the ground and need to start afresh.
New pets for Everquest from LoN: Forsworn
Legends of Norrath saw its first expansion Forsworn released a few days ago, and along with the new loot cards that offer in-game items to use, there are new cards that grant pets as well. EQ Players has featured the pets that LoN collectors can look forward to claiming in EverQuest.There are three familiars that Forsworn introduces to EQ, the Familiar of Queen Eletyl, the Familiar of Lady Vox, and the Familiar of Zi'Thuuli the Granite Claw. These will be pint-sized versions of their mighty likenesses, and really, who doesn't want to roll with a miniature Lady Vox in tow?Pictures of all three of the new familiars are available at the EQ Players feature page.
