Massively has been hinting that Dungeons and Dragons Online Update 8 would be out soon, and now it is here! We knew Turbine would not let us down.
The siege on Lordsmarch Palace rages on in the Attack on Stormreach. A green Hag controls monstrous forces in this ever-expanding plot. Adventurers launch on four different death-defying quests stretching on, over, and under Stormreach, battling the evil armada from Droaam. Take defensive positions against an Ogre General and his army in the Assault on Summerfield; sneak out in the darkness of night and sabotage Droaam mine-laying ships in Blockade Buster; counter a sneak-attack in the tunnels under Lordsmarch Palace courtyard in Undermine; finally, battle through ruins just outside Stormreach where the villainous army is opening a portal directly to Droaam.
Beyond the expansive new quests, Update 8 features four unique cosmetic armor sets with 11 unique appearances each.
If classic good-vs.-evil fantasy warfare is your thing, you will want to head over to the official site and download the patch now! (Well, after you peek at the gallery, of course.)

Update 8 is another one of the recent updates to DDO that has been great. They have really turned things around and are giving their players tons of great content. http://www.ddmsrealm.com/ddo/ is a great place to get all the details on the new quest and gear. They have even started detailed quest walkthroughs in their new blog at http://www.ddmsrealm.com/blog/ .
I think one of the most interesting things about the U8 is the way they have made it so you can now combine most U7 and U8 weapons to get different improved weapons. Depending on how you combine them you can make a great weapon to suit your needs. It should be a lot of fun! I think I might make one of these out of the Hooked Blade I pulled: http://www.ddmsrealm.com/ddo/gear/IDetail.aspx?RareItemID=2586&SeriesID=43&QuestID=380
