We know you manly men out there cringe at the thought of being caught role-playing as an effete fairy, but you won't want to miss out on the new fae race in the latest EQ II expansion. The colorful wings are a big draw, but what makes the fae so sweet is their ability to glide. You can jump from anythingfor some serious soaring fun without taking any falling damage. The only downfall is that if you take any damage while in flight you'll drop like a lead balloon.
Fans of the original EverQuest will be thrilled with the return of everything from Crushbone Keep to Mistmoore Castle as Echoes of Faydwer connects the dots of lore between EverQuest and EverQuest II more tightly, introducing multiple zones with names that should be quite familiar to players of the original game. But a lot has changed since then. So don't think you'll just be waltzing into the old Dwarven home of Kaladim. It'snow over-run with hostile creatures just itching for a fight.
