"1) Three new zones will be added to the game. These zones are not simply large tracts of land with little or no underlying theme but rather tightly organized and constructed "Epic Zones". We have never had zones like these before and we expect that the community will enjoy them immensely. Each Realm will get an EZ with new encounters and, of course, Epic Monsters to go with them. Each EZ has a cohesive story and setting. All encounters in these zones are related to one another in theme. You work your way through these zones like you would a dungeon, finding lower-level monsters on the outside, and much, much higher ones as you work your way in.
2) The EZs are constructed so that a wide range of players (levels 30-50) can enjoy them but please, don't get too close to the scaly things unless you are ready to get a tad singed. :) More EZs will be coming down the road.
3) Epic Encounters will be added to certain parts of the world. This is in addition to the EZs."
