Shadow of Fear

Last year, we launched the Rain of Fear expansion (EverQuest’s 19th Expansion) and in April, we will be continuing the Rain of Fear story with the Shadow of Fear Game Update. Shadow of Fear will be available to everyone that has purchased the Rain of Fear expansion. It will include some new zones while introducing some new storylines of godly proportion and you will have some Spell and AA lines that you haven’t had before. Stay tuned for a Beta Announcement in March. You were signed up for Beta for the Rain of Fear, then you will be invited to come back and we’ll have a small window to invite some of you that missed it last year.

Details

Shadow of Fear will feature two additional zones, including more raid content, spells, and all new AA.

Because there is no Non-Disclosure Agreement with the SoF Beta, we can present some details. Be advised, however, that all details are subject to change.

While there is no NDA for the Beta, we do ask that you still limit discussion of Beta to the Beta forums. Our developers are going to be very active in reading feedback in those forums specifically; if you post feedback elsewhere, it will be missed. Similarly, discussing Beta contents with people who aren’t in Beta isn’t very productive. If you want to discuss Beta, it’s much better to get involved in the Beta yourself. Once our signups are open we will be very quick in handing out invites, so don’t worry!

Zones

  • Plane of Shadow – When Cazic's essence erupted from Norrath, a fear shard pierced the temple of Vex Thal and entered the portal to Luclin’s home, the realm of twilight.
  • Chelsith Reborn – This shadowy version of Chelsith, the great seaside Shissar city, is built with power harnessed from a fallen shard.

Quests

A Third Prayer Shawl quest is planned. Currently (all information subject to change), it requires you to have either the Blessed Serilis Prayer Shawl (shawl gained without the Head of the First Creation) or the Sacred Serilis Prayer Shawl (shawl gained with the Head of the First Creation).

In addition, both regular and tradeskill quests are planned.

Spells

All classes will be getting some new spells / disciplines. Spells may be obtained in the same manner in which you got them in earlier parts of Rain of Fear. Rank I spells are available on the NPC vendors. Rank II and III come from turning in items to the Tomekeeper in Shard's Landing.

Tradeskills

The Plane of Knowledge is gaining a Tradeskill Hub. Run by the New Tanaan Merchant Alliance, the Hub will have merchants and quest givers for tradeskill gameplay.

  • New Tanaan Merchant Alliance - Grand Master tradeskillers can join the New Tanaan Merchant Alliance. This is a quest.
  • The Third Shawl - If you have either the Blessed Serilis Prayer Shawl (shawl gained without the Head of the First Creation) or the Sacred Serilis Prayer Shawl (shawl gained with the Head of the First Creation) you can begin a series of quests to upgrade your shawl.
