GB Feature: D&D Online Six-Month Review

Now that Turbine's Dungeons & Dragons Online: Stormreach has received six months worth of new content, we felt it was necessary to pay another visit to the ambitious MMORPG.
Another major change is the favor system. There are various Houses in Stormreach, and each House has been assigned some of the quests in the game. When you complete a quest for the first time on a new difficulty setting, you get favor with the quest's associated House. (There are three difficulty settings. Completing a quest eight times on (normal) won't gain you any additional favor, but completing it on (elite) once will net you three to four times the (normal) favor.) Then if you gain enough favor with a House, you get some sort of bonus. For example, if you get enough favor with the Coin Lords, you get a new bag for your inventory, and if you gain enough favor with House Deneith, you're allowed to buy special equipment from a Deneith shopkeeper.
