While this seems to be another high end expansion I have to say it kinda looks neat. I have been playing eq2 and it sounds like alot of this expansion involves things that happened 500 years before eq2.
There is actually a zone in EQ2 called Mines of Meldrath . He is a ghost and you have to fight a bunch of his clockwork inventions and eventually he posses one of them and you get to fight him.
$40 is way too much though IMO, although I guess it doesn't really matter since I don't play the game anymore anyways.

Description:
Defend Norrath against acts of vengeance from enemies old and new! The clockwork armies of the evil gnomish necromancer Meldrath the Malignant gather in the Steamfont Mountains, awaiting his order to invade the kingdom of Ak’Anon. The launch of his great air fortress Mechanotus has torn open the earth, exposing new paths into unexplored regions of the ancient continent of Faydwer.
Rediscover Faydwer as you adventure in the nearby Loping Plains, home to the soul eating wereorcs of Bloodmoon Keep. Strive to end the torment of humans and elves cursed for centuries in the Hills of Shade. All the while, an ancient menace stirs east of the Dragonscale Hills, where the prismatic dragon Kerafyrm the Awakened plans his revenge.
