Quests

2015

For 2015, the quests returned March 25 to April 8.

2014

For 2014, April 1st began with Bristlebane randomly changing the appearance of people in the Guild Lobby. It was the same as what happened in 2013.

Also, on April 1, the theme music you hear when EQ starts was changed. If you have the music off (like I do) you could have heard it by playing eqtheme.mp3 in your EverQuest folder. You can click here if you want to hear it.

For 2014, SOE has announced that the quests will return April 9 to April 23.

2013

April 1st is Bristlebane Day! Keep an eye out for an Emissary of Bristlebane in the Plane of Knowledge, who will have a task for adventurers level 55 and up starting on March 31st.

— March 13, 2013 patch message

I'm trying to draw a pretty picture of the Guild Lobby, but you keep messing it up. I made you much easier to draw now!' - Bristlebane

— March 27, 2013 patch message

On April 1, most characters in the Guild Lobby are invisible, except for their primary / secondary items and their name (Shadowman illusion). Some are tumbleweeds, vases, or treasure chests.

Bristlebane tells you, 'You'll be MUCH easier to draw like this!'

2009

Bristlebane Day, 2009 - Beastlord name change. (Image: massively.joystiq.com)

The classes got a rename.

The EverQuest team said this was "to correct some inconsistencies with many player's perception of class roles compared to their intended roles...[they] hope that the new names will help alleviate any confusion there might have been about their intended roles and class vision. We've also modified the various class titles as they change over levels in order to more accurately portray their progression through the game."

  • Bard = Jazzhands
  • Beastlord = PETA
  • Berserkers = AAAHHH!!!
  • Cleric = Rezbot
