I'm going to go through and remove a few of the more offensive comments.

I'd like to remind you once again, that I am very aware of how frustrating the situation is for our international community members. I'm doing my best to keep you abreast of the latest information I get.

Please strive to remain civil towards each other.

Only thing I can say is bring a friend if you want to mentor that low.

A few of the oldest elves might remember when it was spoken, but now only a few very accomplished scholars read and write it.

I'm going to have one quest give a respectable chunk of status and the next one give some coin.

The rewards for the Qeynos and Freeport quests are balanced. If you haven't got the final reward for the Qeynos questline, then you should think about the storyline a bit to figure out where to go next...

(When you figure it out, please don't spoil it too blatantly!)

  • The Spires event is no longer active. The merchants remain, and will continue selling items for tokens.
  • Strange events are afoot in Qeynos and Freeport! Intrepid adventurers should seek out Royal Librarian Brinn in Qeynos Harbor and Sir Tallen Yevix in West Freeport.
  • The festive bone trophy is now spelled correctly.
  • The "Sturdy Fruitcake" tooltip and examine description now has appropriate text!
  • The Crate of Explosive Materials in The McScroogle Corp. HQ now gives 12 explosives at once, instead of one at a time!
  • Vampires now only drop one size of incisor, which should make stacking them easier. However, any old-version incisors will remain until they're used up.
  • Brundun Cogspinner and Ellnie Shrewsprock have received a shipment of rare accessories they are happy to award to highly efficient hunters.
ITEMS

  • Hrath's Journal can now be turned into a proper book file that can be placed in a player’s house. Once you complete the quest “Hadden's Earring”, examine the item to turn it into a book.
  • Erollisi Day candies and Nights of the Dead treats now stack to 200.
QUESTS

  • The quest “Crates on the Nerves” will now properly show, and not show, the locations of the crates as you progress through the quest.
  • Lord Bowsprite now updates the quest “Unlocking the Elfin Lord”, even after completing it twice.
  • The quest, “Lore and Legend: Vampire” can now be obtained from body drops, just like the other creature mastery quests.
  • Defeating McScroogle’s encounter in the quest “Saving Frostfell” does not award AA, as such the star by his name has been removed.
  • The rusty rubble and useful gizmo parts that you must clean up for the quest “Gnopp's One Stop Shop” in Gnip Gnopp's Gizmo Shop now respawns.
  • The goblin that pops out of the "Bag 'O Goblin" you are given while on the quest, “Making Coins” no longer can be used in instances or guildhalls.
  • Gardy Ex-Giftgiver no longer acts as if he is going to offer you his quest “The Giftgiver's Dilemma”, after you have completed it.
NEKTULOS

  • The previous density of the harvesting nodes was low. The number has been increased. These include only land based harvesting nodes and each spawn point has the potential to spawn any node.
YKESHA’S INNER SANCTUM

  • Ykeshan footsoldiers should no longer attack banished players.

With so much information being posted in the EQII Official Forums at all times, it can be very hard to keep up with it and very easy to miss some real gems and opportunities to share. Have no fear though; the Treasure Chest is here to highlight interesting, unusual, and humorous posts, as well as opportunities to help your fellow player with a question or two!

You know the rules Gotta play nice and not feed the trolls, lest they get chubby.

Having nice polite discussions are terrific and debate is even better! However when things devolve to the level of cranky name calling and symbols in the place of profanity, it's time for the discussion to stop.

Thanks all!

The waypoint window is supposed to show you an actual waypoint for the piece.

Unfortunately, we don't have a cinematic for the crash and the fires starting in Freeport, so you come onto the scene afterwards and have to piece it all together.

Strange events are afoot in Qeynos and Freeport! Intrepid adventurers should seek out Royal Librarian Brinn in Qeynos Harbor and Sir Tallen Yevix in West Freeport.

The quest lines start with "Tinmizer's Magnificent Messenger" on the Freeport side and "A Lost Library Book" on the Qeynos side. They're heavily lore-focused, so watch out for spoilers on this thread!

* The Snowfall Cape and the Festive Snowfall Cape are now tradable!
* Adventurers only have to wait 18 hours now for Santa Glug to give them their next gift.

Thanks again for all of your time and effort going in to helping test this!
