Want to be there when the final kinks on the seventh EverQuest II expansion are ironed out? Well, then heed the call and register for the Destiny of Velious closed beta, which will begin promptly on January 5 next year.
By then those spiked eggnogs will have lost their potency and you’ll be focused enough to report bugs and other nasty inconveniences that managed to survive past testings. Destiny of Velious will not have an open beta for the general public so this is like the exclusive advanced preview of the long-lost landscapes of Velious and the hostile denizens that harbor its secrets.
Fan Faire 2010 attendees have a leg up because their registration will lead to a sure slot at the close beta. But all the others will have to pray to the RNG gods to get one a beta acceptance e-mail, which will be sent out between January 3 to January 5. Be sure to go online or at least keep that new e-mail-capable Android phone you got for the holidays right beside you so you can jump on the sneak peek privilege the second it comes popping in your mailbox.
If not, you can always amuse yourself with conspiracy theories on what the heck those Freeblood Vampires are up to.
