I have been away from DDO for about a year, and it seems like there have been a lot of changes. I get tons of join guild requests now all the time! I stopped playing last year shortly after the Risia Ice Games ended, so if someone can summarize the changes since then, or point me to a link, I would REALLY appreciate the help! I have (2) main characters, one Dual wielding Khopesh fighter, and a Ranger hoping to become an Arcane Archer, so any changes that affect those character types would be most helpful. Here are some things I noticed already, please provide any info you can.

1. There seem to be items that require guild membership or guild level X to wear them?
2. What are Airships?
3. Are there new areas to explore, or new quests? (I am Free to Play, but Premium)
4. Cookie jars are neat, I bought one already, any other new containers, equipment?
5. Is there a Wiki or FAQ on Guilds, I want to understand how they work, what benefits, etc.

I know this seems like a lot of questions, I did look around the website and forums, but I couldn't find any info (maybe I didn't look hard enough?, or in the right places?)

Thanks in advance, I love DDO, glad to be back! :)

Ok, I did some more searching, and I found out about guilds and Airships.

I would love to know about any other changes since last year, like I said, particularly those that may affect Fighters and rangers (Arcane Archers)

Thanks.

I suggest you start reading the updates then.

Start at 8, and work your way back to when you left.
