I was thinking, and every expansion up to ROK has had heritage quests in it. Why did they decide to not do them in this expansion? They had plenty of things to choose from like The Fungi Covered Tunic and the Moss Covered Twig, just to name a couple. There were many great items in Ruins of Kunark in eqlive, just seems odd they decided not to implement at least 1 Heritage quest.

Also I don't consider the Epic Weapon quests to be the Heritage quests for this expansion simply because eqlive didn't have 24 classes so some weapons won't have the ability to be heritage, they would just be signature types. The Epic weapons (when they get put into the game) will also prolly not be available to all the masses like a Heritage quest would be.

So why didn't they put any Heritage Quests in this expansion?

Because SOE wanted to act like they were making a masterpiece but did a half assed job in the end. Weak raids...shitty content ideas...lack of delivery with the expansion...woo

I'm more excited for the LU that offers guild halls and the new skeleton models than I was for ROK.

The reasoning behind this was the epic weapon quest lines. There are supposed to be 24 differing quest lines and unique epic's for every class. The are also supposed to have Legendary to Fabled versions like the SoD with the amazing fabled version reserved basically for people able to raid and the legendary for people who group. So far I've seen nothing about when they would be ready, what a shock SOE can't even get it done in 10 month's. Too busy making sure they had "bigger" out door zones and enough solo quests to choke a shark this expansion starts to fall short once you've hit the level cap.

They sure dropped the ball on this exspansion. No epics at launch and no Hqs...

Hard to believe that 1 or 2 weeks of fires cause 2+ months delay in Epics. Makes ya wonder if they even have more then 5 ppl that work on this game. Year to make this xpac, and this is what we got, thats just great.

There is no heritage quests this expansion because all the EQ2 devs these days are wash outs from other companies and they don't have enough time for it?

to OP: ...because somebody prioritized nostalgia over revenue

Too true.

I don't know what the fuck they were doing to waste away those those 10 months. EoF was a breath of fresh air, and a great addition. RoK is a piece of unfinished shit. The kind that hurts so bad you just say "fuck it" half way through, and decide to squeeze the evil log out later.
