EQ Invasion Tour Reaches Boston!
The EQ Invasion tour finished its cross-continental trip from
San Diego to Boston with many stops in between and many tales
to tell. Our Invasion team met hundreds of players from many
different servers including Abakar of the Outcast Adventurers
guild on Rodcet Nife. This is what he had to say about EverQuest.
"The main reason I play EverQuest is due to all of
the people I have met from around the world. I have met
people from Italy, Japan, Israel, and other countries. It
is not so much the immersion of the game but the people
that keep me coming back to play more. It is much more of
an experience due to the fact that I play with actual people
and not just playing a game alone."
-Abakar of the Outcast Adventurers guild on Rodcet Nife

the road and pictures, check

Our

around here. SOE's very own BattleBot, affectionately known

dust pan.
Season 5.0 of Battlebots is here and on Comedy Central. You
can watch our bot ravage those who dare to face it. One opponent
has already succumbed as we continue to saw our way to the
finals.
To learn more about our bot and find out when it can be seen
