- The Spies Like Them mission should now more accurately recognize when all NPCs in the zone have been slain.

*** Events ***

- The guild window is now available to everyone, regardless of expansion!

- The EverQuest Team

As of 11:35 Pacific still can't log in. Is there a estimated time as to when we will be up and running again?

they really need to put the "login Server" on the network server page so that people know ehen they can start loging in.

SoE fails at customer service again.

Adding the login server to the network status page would be nice, but eqplayers is down right now anyway.

Many NPCs in zones released prior to Planes of Power have been modified. The most notable difference will be an increase in health and a decrease in the AC of the creatures.


Umm maybe I split hairs, but isnt a NPC a quest person/trader, and mob some one to kill?

- There is now a banker in Surefall Glade.

Praise Karana.. wonder if they put him/her there on the progression servers as well?

Surefall Glade wasn't released with the original EQ...

HOWEVER on the progression server i sure as heck noticed it.....
