A heads-up about some server downtime early this morning:

All EverQuest Live Servers will be down on Tuesday, October 16, 2012 at 3:00 a.m. US Pacific* for a Game Update. The servers are estimated to be unavailable for approximately 5 hours. Keep an eye on the EverQuest website and the forums for status updates and for news if additional downtime is needed.

Also, beginning at 1:00 a.m. Pacific Time* on Tuesday, October 16, 2012, Vivox Operations will be performing maintenance. We expect this maintenance to take approximately 3 hours. During the maintenance there may be periods of time where the Station Voice Services are unavailable.
