DDO. News. Now.

• Does anyone know when my site was hacked? Sorry everyone. We'll be right back. #
• And, we're back. Sorry about that, folks. #

• Sorry, I was very sick the past few days. (Doing MUCH better now) I'll update with what I missed. Note, much isn't late-breaking news now. #
• Lamannia was updated, and the patch notes are available. http://j.mp/7yBwbC #

Lamannia was just updated, and when the Release Notes are first put up, it mentioned certain quests that were not available, but people found them in the Compendium. What is especially interesting is that two of them are listed as being Epic quests.

Given the organized nature of these quests and that they were briefly mentioned in the Patch Notes, they are likely quests that we will see some time in the future, and not just quests that were never finished. That said, this is all speculative, and it is possible that these quests will never be released.

• Storming the Beaches – Level 7 (NHE)
• The Tide Turns – Level 7 (NHEP)
• The Black Loch – Level 7 (NHEP)
• Spies in the House – Level 8 (NHEP)
• Bargain of Blood – Level 7 (NHE)

More info on them can be gained by reading the Story Arcs section on the page for what appears to be the central NPC to the quests, Taggert d’Deneith.
