The Scars of Velious holds a 85% rating on GameRankings. In the United States, The Scars of Velious sold 66,496 units from February 2001 through the first week of November. Plane of Growth also reintroduced the notion of Planar armor, providing a full set for most classes except druids, paladins, and rangers who went into a new second floor of the Plane of Hate. Those planes, just like the original Planes (Hate, Fear and Sky) required players to have reached the level of 46 in order to enter. Scars of Velious also reintroduced Ethereal Planes such as the Plane of Growth, home of Tunare (goddess of nature) and the Plane of Mischief. The completion of this zone by the first few players led to the first world changing event, where The Sleeper would awaken and rampage his way through Norrath. The expansion is also notable for introducing the Sleeper's Tomb zone, which could unlock with a key from a quest, and vanquish the four dragons that guarded a creature known as The Sleeper. Players could ally their characters with any of the three factions, and fight against the others to gain rewards exclusive to their chosen faction. The expansion introduced both Frost giants and Coldain dwarves to the EverQuest universe, and a group of dragons known as the Claws of Veeshan. One of these claw-marks is in a region known as The Great Divide, where the Coldain have established their home in the mountainside.
The title refers to three chasms in Velious which are said to be the claw-marks of the great dragon Veeshan. The expansion takes place on the antarctic continent of Velious.
The expansion is directed toward characters which have achieved high experience levels (levels 35 and up), providing additional powerful monsters to fight and a number of zones meant to be used by large groups of players.
Sony Online Entertainment (Verant Interactive)ĮverQuest: The Scars of Velious was released on December 5, 2000.
