Upcoming for May in EQ

Upcoming for May
Our next update is tentatively scheduled for May 11th. This update will bring more re-envisioning changes including changes to spread spells out better from levels 1 to 50 and tuning changes to just about every single target heal in the game, including pet heals. In addition, all beneficial spells that last at least 24 seconds will now inform their owner when they wear off.

New augments have been added to the Dragons of Norrath mission vendors. These augments can be used to upgrade the armor purchased from those same mission vendors.

We've increased the experience you gain when completing many quests in starting cities.

We are also making improvements to the in game email system. You will now be able to email multiple players at once and blind carbon copy players. Guild members will now have a pre-populated distribution list of everyone in the guild. This list is automatically updated so if a player joins or leaves your guild, your guild distribution list will update to reflect those changes. In addition, your characters will now all share the same address book by default. This address book is private and will be stored on your client. If you wish, you can assign an address book to any of your characters making it easy to keep track of your contacts. Each contact will have a notes field and you will be able to sort your contacts by guild mates or friends. You will also have the option to automatically forward in-game emails to the email address you have registered to your Station account.

Finally, don’t forget that Veteran rewards will make their way to you on May 13th. Please see the following link for details: http://eqlive.station.sony.com/lowsrc/news_section/newsview.jsp?story=50003
