Forteca Drunder opustoszała podczas gdy Rallos Zek i jego armie udały się do Plane of War (Wymiaru Wojny) aby przygotować inwazję na Easter Wastes! Pół-bogowie Tallon i Vallon Zek pozostali zamknięci w swoich wieżach, ogólnie mając w nosie na to co planuje ich brat. Tylko ich siostra, Sullon Zek, Pani Wściekłości, prawdziwa furiatka, jest świadoma tego co ma się stać. Uwięziona w swojej wieży, podjęła wielkie ryzyko aby sprowadzić do Fortecy Drunder bohaterów z Norrath.
Teraz wszystko zależy od nas! Nastał czas by walczyć z poddanymi Rallosa Zeka i zdobyć nowych zaskakujących sprzymierzeńców w czasie tej wyprawy, która może zakończyć wszystkie wojny!
Udajmy się do Fortecy Drunder i odkryjmy:
– 3 nowe zony grupowe: Spire of Rage – Strategist’s Stronghold – Tower of Tactics
– 3 nowe zony rajdowe x4: Sullon’s Spire – Tallon’s Stronghold – Vallon’s Tower (+wersje Hard, czyli razem 6 nowych zon rajdowych!)
– nowa zona rajdowa x2: Citadel of V’uul
Ale to jeszcze nie wszystkie z nowych zon…
Orkowie Ry’Gorr odkopali podziemny korytarz wiodący do zaginionych Crystal Caverns (Kryształowych Grot)! Niestety, ale jaskinie stały się bardzo niestabilne i mogą się w każdym momencie zawalić. Jakby tego nie było dość, to Królowa Drachnia znalazła drogę wyjścia na górę i obwinia krasnoludy Coldain o szkody wyrządzone w jaskiniach. Pomóżmy krasnoludom uratować ród Królowej uwięziony w Kryształowych Grotach, zanim sami zostaniemy tam pogrzebani na wieki!
– nowa zona grupowa (łatwa): Crystal Caverns: Collapse
Całkiem nieźle jak na zwykłe małe GU… 4 instancje grupowe i 4 nowe instancje rajdowe (nie liczę hard mode)!
To jeszcze nie wszytko…
Mieszkańcy Qeynos informują, że w mieście pojawiło się mnóstwo Ratong… Może mieszkańcy Freeport znają jakieś plotki z tym związane? Odpowiedzi znajdziemy w jednym z tych miast…
Nowy quest heritage pojawi się w naszym journalu o ile porozmawiamy z Grand Historian Elrid Wintershade w bibliotece w dokach Thurgadin.
Otworzył się również kolejny rozdział historii (sygnatury) o Fallen Swords. Gracze, którzy ukończyli quest: Fallen Swords: Here, There Be Giants powinni ponownie porozmawiać z Duality w Thurgadin…
