EverQuest

If you can believe it, players have been using Norrath as their MMO stomping grounds for a decade. Sony Online Entertainment wants to celebrate by launching another expansion for the always popular EverQuest series.  Underfoot makes the 16th expansion to come out in the last 10 years, and after all this time, SOE still provides new and interesting content.

“Celebrating a decade of EverQuest throughout this year has reinvigorated our community and development team alike, and that passion is clearly on display with the latest expansion,” said Thom Terrazas, Producer, Sony Online Entertainment. “Underfoot presents a world unlike anything you’ve experienced in Norrath, providing a deep and fun experience for all our players.”

According to the press release that was posted on SOE’s site today, here’s what you can expect to find in Underfoot:

New Content: New areas for adventurers to explore including Brell’s Rest, Pellucid Grotto, The Underquarry, Brell’s Arena, The Foundation, The Cooling Chamber, Arthicrex, Lichen Creep, Kernagir the Shining City, Fungal Forest, Volska’s Husk, and Brell’s Temple. Players can travel into Underfoot solo, with a group, or in raids to complete new quests, tasks, and events to acquire new items, spells, tradeskill recipes, and abilities.

New Achievement System: Users can display and manage their progress through the world of Norrath. The achievement system allows players to track various categories of their advancement such as levels, Alternate Advancements, quest completions, and other progression tracking events. At the launch of Underfoot, players can track their General, Tradeskill and Underfoot progression Achievements.

Extended Target Window: Players can now track friends and foes with greater accuracy. The target window now lets players assign people or group roles to specific locations on the window for easy re-targeting. Users can track main tank, raid tanks, main target, main assist, puller, etc., or just put a specific player or NPC in the window.

Master Tradeskilling: Tradeskillers can create powerful new weapons, armor, food and drink items, poisons and more.
