EVERQUEST II’s NEXT EXPANSION: VELIOUSTipa seems to be pretty convinced. I don't think it is all together a bad choice. What do you guys think?

I understand its something that was originally an expansion of EQ1, but not having ever played that I've got no experience there of it. But the original idea of a three way war sounds interesting if you can get really immersed in it. So from a non EQ1 player I'd need to know more about it to really get excited.
I really need to get my three characters to 80 though first to experience it, when I'm new to an MMO I do like to explore and take my time it seems, just too much to do already :)

Quote:We've heard that new quests are going in, and, as part of the tour, we found out where they start! Firstly, you can find quests out in Kylong Plains, on the docks. It is important to know that the quests are of an appropriate level for the zone they are in. Therefore, Kylong Plains quests are all from level 68 to 70-ish. Fens of Nathsar is higher, from 71 up to about 73, Kunzar Jungle goes from 74 to about 76 and Jarsath Wastes goes from roughly 78 to beyond 80. The Fens of Nathsar has 3 places to pickup quests: Sathir's Span, Rillis and then you can go talk to the mysterious army who are beyond Kurn's Tower.
These invaders are called The Order of Rime, and the area they live on at the north edge of the Fens of Nathsar reminded me of Everfrost. It wasn't mentioned how much of a part they play in the new zones, but Kiara did say they want information from the Emperor's Athenaeum. That's the only titbit we were given. I did ask if they had anything to do with the new expansion, and was told that question couldn't be answered. From Fens, we moved to Kunzar Jungle. Supposedly there are 2 areas here to get quests. One is over near the City of Mist and one is in the City of Jinisk. Finally, as we were running short on time, we were whisked off to Jarsath Wastes.
