Wow, we've made it another year!  Today marks the 6th Anniversary for EQResource!  It seems like no matter how long we do this, we always seem to find the site is more successful than we ever imagined!  Keeping up with the demand can be a challenge, and trying to implement the new features and content that our wonderful users ask for is an even greater challenge!  But with time, we are able to provide more and more.  With that said, we'd like to announce the newest feature addition to EQResource, Achievements!



This section can be found at https://achievements.eqresource.com

We don't have many guides in place yet for achievements, but we will be filling them in as we have time.  This section works similar to our Spells section, in that you can track changes made to the Achievements system on each EQ patch day!

In addition to our new feature, we are holding a Survey Contest.  This contest simply asks you to fill out a quick survey about your experience and wishes for EQResource.com, and in return gives you a chance at winning a sweet EverQuest Hat!  You can find all the details for this contest on the Official Contest Thread.

Thanks for another great year filled with EverQuest Fun,

Riou & Rorce

- Changed bard items that grant Amplification effects (Bloodfiend`s Throat Gem, Phosphorescent Rapier of Light, Shadowsong Cloak, and Voice of the Serpent) to unlock a passive AA ability which grants the same effects. The buff triggered by these items is now a shadow buff similar to other items that unlock passive AA abilities.
- Changed Bloodmetal Inlaid Gnollish Totem to unlock a passive AA ability which grants AC rather than applying a buff that grants AC. The illusion benefit is now a shadow buff similar to other items that unlock passive AA abilities.

- Look to the marketplace August 16th for the Ayr`Dal Heritage Crate. Each crate contains a random item. Trade these Ayr`Dal Heritage items to your friends or collect them all yourself!
- Adjusted the buff stacking of mount and illusion benefits that increase maximum HP:
- - Mount and illusion buffs that previously used slot 11 to increase maximum HP have been moved to slot 13 to allow AA abilities such as Pact of the Wurine or Pact of the Wolf to coexist with these buffs.

- The reminders for claim items and veteran rewards displayed when logging in will now only display once per week and only for level 5 or higher characters.
- - Note: The ability to claim items and veteran rewards remains unchanged. These changes only impact the messages displayed when logging in.
- Fixed a bug that prevented the player name left-click context menu from working correctly if chat timestamps were enabled.
- Added the option 'missingSpells' to the /outputfile command.
- - Running this command will output a list of any spells usable by your class up to your current level that you haven't yet scribed in your spellbook.
- The Claim window will now display information about the highlighted claim. Generally this will describe where the claim came from. However, in a few cases the information will also indicate what servers the item can be claimed on, if that item has server restrictions.
