Had enough of the Shard of Fear?  Neither had we.  

So we cornered Everquest II’s Community Manager, Craig “Grimwell” Dalrymple, who was kind enough to confirm some facts for us here at Clockwork Gamer, and to provide two more exclusive screenshots of the upcoming Shard of Fear.

First, we wanted to confirm when exactly we might see the Shard of Fear on live servers.  Per Craig, “The Shard of Fear is currently scheduled to go live with Game Update 39 on October 17th. While there is always the chance that the update, or the shard will be pushed back, this is our current goal.”

When we pressed him for more details on the Shard itself, he was a bit more evasive.  Unwilling to divulge too many specifics, he basically confirmed much of what we already knew, that the Shard “will be a single group instance” and that it was, in fact, “persistant”.
Enjoy!
