Lower level player damage has been rebalanced to bring it closer to higher levels on a per-ability basis.

All US live servers will be brought offline on Friday, January 16, 2015 at approximately 5:00AM PST. Estimated downtime is 1 hour. EU servers will be brought offline on Friday, January 16, 2015 at approximately 1:00PM London Time. Expected downtime is 2 hours. There are no patch notes for this downtime. Login issues from yesterday appear to have persisted throughout the night. The issues cropped up after SOE got slammed by the players who purchased H1Z1 Early Access attempting to log in. This downtime may be related to that, but we have no confirmation. RadarX posted the following at 7pm PT Thursday evening: We are continuing to investigate outstanding issues which may prevent players from logging in to EverQuest 2. We hope to have this resolved as quickly as possible and appreciate everyone's patience. Thank you!
