Solo Raids, Pets, and Manastone
Community video covering EverQuest Legends solo raid instances, Plane of Sky progress, dual-class pets, Permafrost revamps, Manastone confirmation, housing, and tradeskills ahead of July 28 launch.
July 28 Launch and Solo Raid Instances
This community breakdown covers official July 28 launch timing, pre-order pricing ($19.99 + one month, then $9.99/month), and the headline feature: solo-capable raid instances with personal loot and difficulty scaling. Plane of Sky receives continued developer focus through the beta period that ended July 21, 2026.
Read our written solo raids guide and dungeons and raids page for zone-level detail. Pre-order beta progress wiped — launch starts fresh except reserved names per launch day guide.
Dual-Class Pets and New Stances
The video highlights all pets becoming dual-class, gaining abilities from two class lines — a major buff for Shaman, Magician, Necromancer, and hybrid pet builds. Pair with spell upgrades on pet summon lines and stances and invocations coverage of new Berserker stances and Spellblade invocation.
Plane of Sky now includes Berserker support. Permafrost on Faydwer received revamp attention during beta — expect refreshed named spawns and loot tables at launch.
Manastone, Housing, and Tradeskills
Developers confirmed the legendary Manastone is not in the July 28 build but will arrive later — not lost to classic EverQuest history. Player housing ships at launch, and tradeskills form part of the solo crafting loop with +50 tradeskill slots at level 50.
Expect post-launch patches every two to three months with new zones and unlocks on the roadmap. SDCC panel "From 1999 to EverQuest Legends" runs July 25 — watch for online recaps after the event.
