For 2014, it will begin Wednesday, April 16, 2014, and run until Wednesday, April 30, 2014 at 11:59PM PDT.

SOE Live

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.

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.
