• Allakhazam: Death, Death, Death

During SOE Live, a contest has been held for a number of years involving an event called The EverQuest® Death, Death, Death Challenge, more commonly known as Death, Death, Death!.

The Challenge is a progression-based game instance where teams of six (6) players will have forty (40) minutes to defeat as many boss encounters as possible.

For a limited time before SOE Live, the Death, Death, Death! event will be on the test server, and then on the live servers. This is to enable people to practice. It is also open for everyone to experience it.

The quest is given by Tudasali, Emissary of Thurgadin, in Great Divide. He is found at /loc -1050, -125 (outside one of the guard towers just south of Thurgadin).

2014

This event will be available on live servers Wednesday, July 30 until Wednesday, August 13.

• EverQuest: Death, Death, Death Challenge Official Rules (2014)

“	As mentioned in Phathom's July Sense Heading post, 'Death, Death, Death!' is coming to live servers at the end of the month. It will start on Test earlier (this is generally standard) and it will also run much later (this is not generally standard for events run on Test). Feel free to test the event on the Test server or Live in preparation for the competition at SOE Live this year. There are new achievements and new titles for progressing in 'Death, Death, Death!' as well as some significant changes to the event.	”

Stone Cold Summer

In the lead-up to the Veil of Alaris expansion release in 2011, EQ added a limited time task "Only The Blind Will See" and the "Baga's Stand" mission. The task has eight versions, depending on your level. To request Baga's Stand, you must have completed one of the Only The Blind Will See tasks, but that is not needed to participate.

On August 20, 2014, they were brought back for a limited time.

“	In the early weeks of September, be alert for when Arima Fae and Helagan will need your help: Arima Fae is trying to research strange statues, but is being chased by a guild of thieves. Seek out Arima in Misty Thicket to offer your assistance. Meeka Gharn in the Plane of Knowledge can transport you there. This involves a task for all levels. Helagan is looking for adventurers to challenge a guild of thieves so that Arima Fae can continue his work. Seek out Helagan in Misty Thicket to offer your assistance. Meeka Gharn in the Plane of Knowledge can transport you there.	”
