D&D Online: Eberron Unlimited Update Two Preview

MMORPG.com was given a guided tour of The Dark Dreaming adventure pack that launched in D&D Online earlier today, and have since taken the opportunity to put together a quick preview.

Whichever way the player chooses, they will eventually find themselves within the Plane of Nightmares again, and this time not through the dreams of a victim of the Path of Inspiration. Here, the Dreaming Dark has control over the physics of the realm, so players will find themselves in heavy gravity when attacked, while in other places find themselves lifted up by light gravity. That light gravity, in fact, is one of the most enjoyable portions of the entire adventure pack, as you must struggle to solve platform puzzles while being lifted up high, and sometimes dangerously so, and must navigate a safe landing.

There are, of course, many other challenges that will face the party as they progress into the Plane of Nightmares to fight the Devourer of Dreams, and the designers promise that you won’t be disappointed with the challenge and climatic end. The loot isn’t disappointing either, particularly for players who have gone through the Path of Inspiration adventure pack from the first update. Items that were found during that update with suppressed power may now have their powers unlocked through the Dreamforge, by collecting essences and other special items that, when combined, will unlock the true power of these items.
