Wow sounds great and all in a game update! Thanks for making this game so great and keeping me engaged! I really enjoy how you have included something for everyone. As a non raider , heavy small group and crafting player I appreciate the meny ways to play this game.

Is EQII ending? No, it can't...what will I do with the itty-bit of free time I have? It's the only game I play any more... Say it ain't so... tell me I'm delusional and am reading something into the words that aren't there...Smiley: frown

The "endgame" is always the current top-of-the-content content. Like, where the content ends. With this GU the "endgame" gets new content (Skyshrine), moving the effective end of the game further out. Until the next time they add new endgame content.

So don't panic :)
Endgame?

Thanks for calming an "old" (56) woman's fears. Smiley: laugh
