Everquest: The Newbie Zone FAQ Frequently Asked Questions about Everquest

Release date 12 October, 2010. Main features are an increase in level cap to 90, expanded inventory slots (potentially 20 slots in a container), and player housing.

Details: 800 new AAs, housing includes trophies (in-game stat increases), 18 new raids, 13 new zones (all for 85+), 450 new spells, 17 missions and 120 quests.

Run speed spells now can be cast in a dungeon (but not mounts).

Changes during the year:

AA experience bonus increased dramatically (x5 at low AA), to cap at 2,500 AAs. Player characters now give extra exp in a group; mercs count the same as players used to (so group exp still increases with mercs, just not as much).

Experience on Zek and Firiona Vie was upped to +50%, and the character limit on FV was removed.

NPCs no longer enrage (but pets still do).
