EQ2Flames
Aaah, EQ2flames. Where the children run wild, but the adults usually win. It’s a very interesting site. A web forum which is not controlled by SOE and has a very liberal policy regarding its content. As the name says, flames are fine, but there are a couple of common sense rules to keep the children in check. And guess what, the site works.
Nonetheless, people vent, have to blow steam, but only the truly socially inepts expose themselves. What remains is usually decent material.
And to top it all off, they have great guides, mostly in their class section. We will be addressing those separately in stand alone posts. Other notable sections:
- An active guild recruitment and looking for guild section
- The flames core “Center Stage” section
- Very active class sections
- Active server forum

EQ2i, The Everquest II Wiki
EQ2i is a major resource for every EQ2 player. Guides and articles span many subjects from achievements to zone descriptions. The information find in the articles is generally very good and accurate. The wiki is approaching 60,000 articles with daily additions and updates.
Of note are the quest guides which organized in timelines, a collection of quest sequences, usually describing a single zone, but also Heritage or Epic quest. Most often used is the Solo timeline, guiding through quests from level 1 to 90. Another significant timeline is the Dungeon timeline.
Additionally, there are zone, monster and class guides as well as tradeskill, spell and equipment guides.
The wiki is hosted by http://wikia.com, a host of so many game related wikis. Here’s the link to the EQ2i main page: http://eq2.wikia.com/wiki/EverQuest_2_Wiki:Main_Page

Everquest II Grandfathered Characters
After some discussion ensued among the F2P players over access to existing character with premium race/class combo, Everquest II producer Smokejumper announced this today:
*Every* character that was created before 12/06/2011 at 12:01 am will be grandfathered in without race or class restriction. This means that regardless of your membership level, you will be able to play any character created before 12/6 without paying for race- or class-pack unlocks.
For any player that previously subscribed to EQII Live servers, or as a Gold or Platinum member on EQ2X, we will also refund all the class/race pack purchases made after 12/06/2011 at 12:01 am and before the time of this posting (12/08/2011, 4:30pm) so that no one loses any SC due to this change.
