Bruce Ferguson tells us why Game Update 51 is a game-changing update for many players of EverQuest 2, with huge changes to the 45-55 zone of Lavastorm, a new duo instance, a promised 4x zone for level 80s, and plenty of content for crafters. Later in the Q&A session, we'll learn about plans for more solo content and zone revamps as well as a few hints about what we can expect from this year's FanFest in June.
