    In-Game Events & Items on Sale

    [IMG]

    EverQuest introduced new scary, spooky items into the Marketplace today, including items created by Player Studio artists. These items will get you in the spirit before the Nights of the Dead, the returning annual event where you can check in with special festive merchants in the starting cities and find seasonal Heroes’ Forge armor dropping across the world! Nights of the Dead in EQ begins in-game on October 28th.

    In EverQuest II, the Marketplace is getting ready for Nights of the Dead! New items are available beginning October 1, and the event will return to Norrath on October 8th. The annual event will feature new illusions, rewards, and a new recipe book for tradeskillers. There are also returning favorite quests and earnable achievements from previous years.

    Over in Landmark, new props and materials will be added to the game in the middle of October to allow builders to get ready for a special Halloween Build-A-Thon and in-game party! Be on the lookout for Halloween Island, a special location just for themed builds. More information about the in-game party will be available later in October.

    The Halloween fun has already begun in PlanetSide 2 with Nanite of the Living Dead. These pumpkin spawns will be available until November 10, so make sure you start harvesting those seeds so you can get your hands on special Halloween helmets! There are additional helmets, camos, and weapons available in the Depot.

    The Witching Hour returns to DC Universe Online today (October 1 at 4:00PM). Featuring new base items, feats, styles, and a new title, this in-game event allows you to earn special in-game currency called Spooky Bites, which you can use in Skeet’s Boo-tique for tricks, treats, and creepy items for your base or guild hall.

    Though it’s always a bit scary to be wandering around in H1Z1, this year the horror will be amped up even more! Stay tuned for complete details about what that means, but in the meantime (if you dare) head into Survival Mode and/or Hardcore Battle Royale and see just how many zombies you can find!

    So get ready to celebrate the tricks and treats of 2015! Happy Halloween!

    Cool news!
    This ought to be interesting.

    Do you know of a good program to use to record this ' Halloween Themed Video '?

    So we get 2 days before Halloween? Couldn't you make it a little earlier like 2 weeks?
    "Nights of the Dead in EQ begins in-game on October 28th.''


    AND!
    Looking at the photo:
    OK, That is Daybreak CASH..
    ETA on Game CARDS?

    Do you have EverQuest Daybreak Cash Cards?

    Shouldn't you have put up the EverQuest Cash Card on top, in the photo.. since you are posting in an EverQuest forums?
    H1Z1, DC Universe? EverQuest 2?

    No EverQuest?
    "Please note: Daybreak Cash is usable in any Daybreak Games PC Title. " I see this.. but still no printed EverQuest Cash Cards?
    Do you guys plan to kill EverQuest?

    JUST curious...

    Not sure what you mean; Daybreak Cash cards are game cards. These are just a sample. When they're coming to stores, we'll announce more details. These cards are usable in any Daybreak PC game. The art on the card doesn't matter -- so, you can buy the H1Z1 card and use it in EverQuest, DCUO, Landmark, etc...

    OH, sorry for the confusion :)

    https://www.google.com/search?q=soe game cards&biw=1680&bih=909&tbm=isch&tbo=u&source=univ&sa=X&sqi=2&ved=0CDQQsARqFQoTCJzb3Ku9osgCFdP9gAodjQIFsQ&dpr=1
    In those pictures of SOE game cards.. you can see ' 1500 SC ~or~ 30 Day Membership' , Redeem for Station Cash or Membershp, Redeem for 30 days of time ..

    But in the picture you showed.. it was only Station Cash.
    As I seen, I thought those were the NEW Station Cash cards.. and asked about ' Game Cards ' meaning .. a way for subscription :)

    There was Station Cash cards .. .and Game Cards aka subscription . AND Station Cash cards / Game Cards aka subscription.

    Station Cash cards were like this :

    I just saw Station Cash in the picture you linked.

    Again, sorry for the confusion.

    But, on the topic, what about having one with the words EverQuest ? :D

    Again, Sorry, I am under the impression you have these cards LIVE and didn't print out EverQuest 'Station Cash Cards' .

    Thanks for the reply .

    And sorry for Derd's comment.
    It happens.

    The designs are a little different...and we haven't revealed all of them. ;)



    More details about how these cards can be used will be revealed soon! Thanks for the questions; we'll work them into our messaging when it's time to make a full announcement. This was just a teaser!

    I have 2500 SC ones that have Landmark on them. They work.
  10. Xenthoxin New Member

    I hope these cards are easier to find, I personally never saw a single SC card, no idea why. Good way to get rid of my plat though, buy krono from baz, trade krono for DBC marketplace cash, yay more house items :D
