Stick to EverQuest II this winter, play a Vampire and ride an Ice Wolf Posted on 07 December 2010 by Allen Powers In a bid to keep players logging in through the winter season, EverQuest II just announced rewards for the next three months leading up to the release of the Destiny of Velious (DoV) expansion on February 2011. The instructions are rigid but rewarding: Players who have an active subscription on Dec. 14, 2010 and Jan. 17, 2011 and purchase the DoV expansion will get to unlock the Ice Wolf mount and a new Freeblood Vampire race. The first image of the Ice Wolf mount has been released for public adulation (it’s white, furry and has a mean face on), but the bigger question among the community is how the vampire race models look like. “Do they sparkle?” asked a concerned EQII player, obviously afraid of Twilight look-alikes invading the game. “The wifey’s going to call her vampire Edward or some such nonsense. I swear if these vampires look like anything from Twilight, I’ll go mad.” To make the wait for these two February 2011 rewards more bearable, SOE is giving away two bonus rewards on December and January that will be revealed just when the rewards are distributed. That’s Dec. 14, 2010 and Jan.17, 2010 respectively. Bad news for EverQuest II Extended free and silver members though — you’ll need to upgrade to a gold and platinum membership, or become an EQII Live subscriber to qualify for the three-month wide rewards. So go upgrade if you think it’s worth the wolf mount, vampire race and all that biting.
