Dungeons And Dragons Online: DDO News: Devspotting

Xundau has a brief post about what equipment slots are currently in game(there are 14). See the specific list here. Pretty standard list which matches well with previous games and PnP.

There's also a post on when you can rest. As it turns out, you can take a little nap no matter the time of day, as long as you find a rest area. Read the post here.

Xundau wants to know how important starting equipment is to you. Currently, characters start with a kit, such as a rogue getting leather armor, a shortsword, a short bow, and some arrows. You can throw your two coppers in here.

Lastly, some discussion on what kind of encounters to expect. There are no rats, and they're aiming to make boss encounters more than just bigger versions of their more mundane counterparts.
