Campaigns
Campaigns are like free expansions; however, they build on the world that is already available in Dark Age of Camelot. They are six month long story arcs of dynamic content. During the six month period, new content is added in two-week intervals to help further the storyline. Because these changes are dynamic, some story lines will come to a close as others open. Periodic flash-point events within the story will have great effect on the world, and as chapters conclude, the stories and parts of the world they affect may change dramatically. In some parts of the story, player participation will ultimately be the catalyst for these story and world changes.
A Dragon's Revenge- (Back in 2007) - Beginning in the winter of the year of the Labyrinth, the dragons began to act erratically. At first it was a mystery to the villagers living outside of Camelot, Tir na nog, and Jordheim, but in time it became apparent: the Dragons were on the move. No longer would they remain in their lairs, tucked away in the far reaches of the realms. Flying overhead, their enormous wings flapping in deafening rhythm, they were a terror never before witnessed in the small outlying villages of the capital cities. No village is safe from the terror of fire and ice raining from the skies! Striking without warning, they incinerate everything in their paths as the scholars of the realms struggle to discover the mystery behind these unusual attacks.
In this campaign players were asked to help fight off the powerful and growing dragons. Each dragon had spawned five adolescent dragons and recruited a powerful army. In a race to save the land, players had to fight off the evil Dragonsworn army, defeat the adolescent dragons, and save their realms by destroying the realm dragons.
The Dragon's Revenge Campaign introduced the powerful Dragonslayer equipment sets. These armor pieces and weapons are widely considered to be among the best equipment in the game due to the variety of stat increases they offer and their dual-proc nature. The Dragonslayer armor pieces have some of the highest utility in the game and feature a healing and ablative procs. The Dragonslayer weapon holds the same stats as the Champion weapon (introduced in Darkness Rising) though with a different pair of procs.
In order to gain these pieces of equipment, players must gain faction with their realms respective defenders (the Azure for Hibernia, the Dragonbane Svartalf for Midgard, and the Stonecrush for Albion) as well as complete a series of quests which ultimately end in slaying the adolescent and adult dragons.

Famous quotes containing the word campaigns:
“That food has always been, and will continue to be, the basis for one of our greater snobbisms does not explain the fact that the attitude toward the food choice of others is becoming more and more heatedly exclusive until it may well turn into one of those forms of bigotry against which gallant little committees are constantly planning campaigns in the cause of justice and decency.”
—Cornelia Otis Skinner (1901–1979)
