In-Game, Technical, and Account Support for the Holidays
In-game, technical, and account support for all SOE titles will be unavailable on December 25, 2008 as the Customer Service department will be closed for the holiday. Customer Service will resume normal hours on December 26, 2008. Thank you for your understanding and Happy Holidays!
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!
Because of all the great feedback that we’ve received from you, our community, the team has fixed some of the issues that you were most vocal about.
Quest Journal - Collection Quests
The collections section of your quest journal can now be sorted based on the following:
Ready to turn in status
Name
Level
Category
Progress
Additionally your collection quest journal will no longer reset to the top of the page when you add a new item! It will now stay on the collection to which you are adding.
Roomier Harvesting Depots
The harvesting depot capacity has been increased from 100 to 150! Your guild's crafters will now have more space!
Desert of Flames Drop Rates
The drop rate for Master level spells in DoF has been slightly increased to be more in line with the drop rates in the rest of the game.
Addresses for Player Housing
The house window will now display the address of the home below the name, making your home easier to find.
Your full house address and location will be shown on the Details tab of the Persona window, for those rough times when you can't quite remember your address.
Players who currently own a house will need to enter then exit their house before the data will appear.
Spell Effect Icons
The max player / detrimental spell effect icons displayed have been increased from 30 to 45.
Fabled Loot Drops
The twin dragons in the Pedestal of Sky now drop 3 pieces of fabled armor.
Are you looking for some delicious jumjum pie? Perhaps a potentially explosive clockwork mechawhosits? The Baubleshire is Qeynos' one stop shop for all things halfling and gnome related! Unfortunately for the poor dark elven immigrant, using the inhabitants of The Baubleshire as pie filling is frowned upon. Who knew?

Account theft isn't isolated only to those who choose to trade or share their Station accounts (which is ignoring the EULA!). As the Internet and online gaming population grow, so does the cesspool of scammers.

Sigrdrifa sighed as she settled into the tub of steaming hot water, the quiet of the bathing room providing a brief haven of tranquility in her sometimes chaotic household. Piping in the hot spring water had been expensive, but it wasn't a luxury to the paladin's way of thinking, but rather medical expense to help soothe her bruises and scrapes and provide mental peace and relaxation after battle!
The herbs scenting the bath oils in the water rose around her, helping her relax, and the steaming water seemed to penetrate and unknot each muscle. The paladin laid her head back on the folded towel at the tub's edge, her arms spread along the rim, and started to doze.
