New Adventure Pack: High Road of Shadows

Oriphanun Huntsilver’s journal, containing a fabled Nether Scroll, has vanished and the Harpers are in need of your help to retrieve it! Featuring a new adventure area and 5 new dungeons for characters of Epic levels 23-25. Available in the DDO Store on November 14th, and free to VIPs today!

– Travel the high road as you seek out the Nether scroll fragments
– Storm castles as you retrace Oriphanun’s steps
– Help the local Cormyrians fend off the Netheril Wizards

Head towards the gate to Kingsforest and look for the Harper’s Cart near the gate in Eveningstar to begin the search!

New Epic Destiny: The Primal Avatar

A new epic destiny is available! The Primal Avatar extends Druidic abilities and adds another destiny to the Primal Sphere. Like the multi-talented Druid, this destiny supports many playstyles and includes options for spellcasting, healing, and supportive roles. Primal Avatar also offers options to enhance Druidic Wolf and Bear forms, as well as enhancing pets and summons. With the Primal Avatar you can:

– Gather spirits to you and call upon them to bolster your offensive and defensive capabilities.
– Increase your Druidic or Ranger caster levels.
– Use your harnessed spirits to slip through the world unseen by your foes.
– At higher tiers, Call forth natural allies to enhance your party members.
– Draw inspiration and power from the four seasons, and unleash nature’s wrath on your enemies.
– Become as strong as an oak as you train in Primal Avatar until you can shapechange into a powerful plant-based form.

Primal Avatar is included in the Epic Destinies system. The Epic Destinies system is available as part of the Menace of the Underdark expansion, or in the DDO Store today.
