What is EverQuest Legends: Rulers of Kunark?

EverQuest Legends: Rulers of Kunark is the first major expansion for EverQuest Legends. It is sold separately from the base game and brings Kunark into Legends' own timeline. Instead of only encountering the ruins of a past empire, players experience the factions there at the height of their power and in open conflict for supremacy.

The expansion continues Legends' standalone approach: well-known locations and motifs from EverQuest serve as a starting point but are not rebuilt one-to-one.

Gameplay

With Rulers of Kunark, the maximum character level rises to 55. The main new long-term system is called Reincarnation: characters can be levelled up again to unlock additional abilities and higher stat caps.

Game Jawn also announces Aliases, Collections, Artes and Auction Houses. These systems expand the existing Legends approach of multiclassing, item progression and flexibly scaled solo, group and raid play.
