Alongside the new dungeons and deep EQ lore that the developers have pushed out to EverQuest II with their latest expansion, there have been a load of new changes and updates to the game's crafting metagame. We touched briefly on those changes in our full on tour of The Shadow Odyssey, but Emily "Domino" Taylor dropped by the official forums to give more details. There she outlines her logic behind improving the overall crafting experience for non-combat players rather than focusing on a ton of new recipes or craftable items.EQ2Traders bears the responsibility of hosting several in-depth looks into the new crafterly content in the expansion. The site looks deep into the Far Seas Supply Division Headquarters, the numerous changes to the Isle of Mara, and the new instanced-based crafting content. The site also features a quick reference guide for players wanting to jump right into the expansion-y, crafter-y goodness. Click on through to these great resources for the full skinny on this sword-less way to pass the time in Norrath.

I've noticed a real lack of interest in EQ2 stories on Massively, all get a very low number of comments. Does EQ2 have a low number of players now? There's quite a lot to this game, but I get the feeling the last xpac was a little lacking and that EQ2 is probably on the wane faster that the original EQ, which seems to be going fairly strong today.

The servers have been really busy recently and especially on Tuesday when TSO was released. I'm on Nagafen server though, which is the second most populated server. I've heard some servers (Venekor for instance) are pretty much dead.
