June 2026 Everquest Patch Notes and Other News

Hello and welcome to the game update notes for EverQuest June 17th, 2026. I think this happened yesterday. I got a little carried away with something else and forgot to do the video. Yeah, yesterday at 10:00. So, uh highlights updated progressive spell lines for the priests and the casters. Uh more details below. Laurion’s Song is now free to play. Uh so, that means you can level up to free to play. Uh and enter in uh one of the funnest expansions, I would say, in recent times. Uh items, the Shield of Elder Bark Bulwark and the Bark Hide Barrier and the Verdant Keep will uh should now have a type eight augment slot rather than a type seven. I’m guessing those are all rage shields. Uh when placed in housing, the Frost Reaver saber-tooth cat mount should now respect movement options. Stats on the Beatrice’s carved family heirloom have been adjusted. Uh see, quests and events, Trials of Smoke mission fixed players being teleported repeatedly when zoning in if their group is full. Year of the Darkpaw Oasis of of Fear heroic adventure fixed an issue where the progressive uh progress could break when you kill and investigate steps trigger simultaneously, right? So, if you’re doing it too fast, you might break it. Should be fixed now. Oasis of Jungle heroic adventure, players who die to the first barrel and miss the update can now hail the frenzied uh frenzied gorilla and reset the errand. Spells, berserker updated Di’Tak Khamak rage, uh line of spells to spread the damage over more individual strikes in order to avoid cases where damage cap could be exceeded. Also increase the hate override values where they were not updated. There should I don’t know why there is a damage cap on uh something like that. Uh while mounted casting a spell that requires you to be standing will fail and no longer put the item on the cool down. All right. Wizard adjusted the progressive abilities. Uh well, actually these are all the same, right? So uh yeah. So for wizard, necromancer, and all the priests, all of the progressive abilities rank one is now strength six, right? And then they all scale beyond that to a different range. So uh I would expect DPS increases or uh other goodies increased throughout that. Mercenaries increased spell focus damage of DPS mercenaries and remove the restriction that prevented them from applying to area of effect spells. So hopefully this increases caster merc DPS. Um cuz last time I looked at it was terrible. It was terrible after they did a patch where they nerfed it, I guess, and uh it was terrible damage. Um and the melee DPS was terrible, too, until I put a bard in my group. Uh melee DPS mercenaries now have access to higher level versions of thieves eyes, thieves vision, and thieves sight at levels 96 and 117. Miscellaneous, using {{}slash} use target command while holding an item will now prioritize trading with merchants and guild masters instead of interacting with them. The cap uh on how much vitality can be stored will now be properly enforced after being resurrected. Lorien song expansion is now free to play. Enabled free transfers of Mangler to other live servers. UI made a fix for non-US keyboards layouts inputting extra characters when zoning. Updated the advanced loot window in preparation of personal loot changes. There we go. That’s on the new uh TLP server coming out in August. Uh so all those got changed. I don’t know what that actually does. I have not logged on to EverQuest since I started playing EverQuest Legends. Uh previously updated fixed an issue that was prevented uh preventing tides of charms uh charms from the tides of time from working as intended. Fixed an issue that would uh offer all available level decreases when speaking to the priest would not offer all available level decreases when speaking to the priest of discord. Worn equipment will no no longer be placed in bags if it is associated with an expansion that has not yet launched on the server. Echo seems interesting. I’ll I’ll just say that. I don’t know what that would have uh Echo of Hate reduced the radiuses of the um wax oozes original radius was uh 30. They made it 50. This reduces it to 40. All right. Uh fixed an issue on Vinny Key that caused challenges to not evaluate levels uh properly. Avoidance abilities like shield flash deflection should be working again. Reverted reverted previous changes to the camera when mounted. Frost River corrected some instances where merchants did not sell berserker spells and added beastlord spells also in um All right, so there we go. That’s the the patch notes for this month. And then we got some news obviously it was already spoiled in the patch notes. Lorien Song is now free-to-play obviously. Uh you can go through that. It’s it’s a pretty fun expansion truth be told right. Uh now now in this is to me this is weird right? Like okay. So they’re free-to-playing Lorien Song but they’re selling the bundles for Terror of Lak Land which I think would have been perfect opportunity to sell the bundles for Lorien Song but uh you know maybe there’s a schedule there but uh if you do not have these uh the standard item is a mount this uh these two illusions for your pet I believe pet. No the never mind that is a contract for a mercenary. And the little bug is the thing and you also get a uh mushroom so you can teleport strictly to Umbral Plains and you get a painting which I believe is that one right there. Then there’s the additional item bundle which is uh the 40 slot bag. I believe it’s 40 slot bag. It’s it’s a large bag. The Elbear mount the Rock Hopper pet illusion the illusion for yourself to turn into a kiva uh you get the skyring bowl which is the uh thing you can place in the guild hall to teleport. And you also get the uh shadow weapon ornaments right there which were I think the pre-order bonus. And then it looks like here on Agnarr you can get the cosmetic own items only for uh altogether. Which is the uh the crawler the saddle the saddle the illusion and the other illusion there. Pretty nice. All right. So, there’s some other information there and then they also talk about the free trade free the free transfer off of Mangler to Area 52. There you go. And this is the news. So, that is everything for the game update notes for June 17th, 2026. Uh if I got nothing else. So, thank you very much for watching and please have a fantastic day.
