New quest give you new forms .. I.E. ratwere, wolfwere, gatorwere, tigerwere, and bearwere. These are Lycanthropes, or shapeshifters like "werewolves," and you can change from your normal form to these whenever you want. Its a new CM and a Permanent ability. As you CM you can make the forms better and they also give you stat buffs when you are changed into them. Stats depends on form you choose .. not sure what stats with what forms yet ... will let you know.
Okay now heres the deal ... there is a sixth one that they are not talking about ... some rumor it to be a "were-Hunter" or someone to kill the were's ... I.E. PvP introduced to our servers. No one will be 100% sure till they release the sixth one so I decided to stop questing and just wait. It would suck if the sixth would be way better or if you choose sides before you know there was one. Well whatever you do GL out there and have fun!! I'll try to get stats on forms A.S.A.P.

I got this off main EQOA site. I broke this into three parts. Here is the ratwere qst:
Starting NPC is 'shady swashbuckler' in Temby (SE). You shouldn't have trouble finding him. He is in front of a house on the west side of town. Speak to him. He will ask you if you are looking for some work. Ask, "What kind of work do you have?" He tells you he's in the import business and needs someone to make a pickup and delivery for him. Tell him "Yes, I'll help you make a delivery." He says, "I need you to go to Highpass Hold and meet with a representative of another merchant company" "one that owes me some favors." They'll be meeting in Highpass so don't leave them waiting for too long." "The deal can't go down unless all three parties are present." "Give this to the halfling as payment for our share of the goods and then return here with them" "so that I may examine the goods before sending them to Freeport." Then you get a popup: "You have received pouch of silver coins. You have received a quest." Your quest log should now say, "Find the shady trafficker in Highpass, exchange payment for the goods, then return to shady swashbuckler."
Go to highpass. In the room with the OLD bank and the historian, go to the SE corner. There will likely be at least 4 or 5 people already there. This is where shady trafficker and shady dealer spawn. They are on a 20 minute spawn timer. I believe they will be light blue to the last person that got the quest. Talk to shady trafficker. He will tell you, "Move along stranger, lest ye want your throat slit!!" You need to tell him, "I was sent by a swashbuckler in Temby to retrieve some merchandise." He replies by saying how he figured the guy would send a lackey to do the job and how he already turned the merchandise over to the highpass guards for inspection. He takes your silver coins. *NOTE: if you get to this point and do not end up with the merchandise(ie: you get KSed) you will need to go back to shady swashbuckler and relog the quest.* Now they start talking in say chat. Here is the dialog:
shady dealer: Hand over those coins and recover the merchandise for this courier so we may be done here!
shady trafficker: I'll hand over nothing! These coins will be of no use to you where you are heading
shady trafficker: Guards! Guards!

Name:
At this point the shady trafficker becomes attackable. I don't think you need to kill the shady trafficker to advance the quest. He carries no loot. You DO however need to talk to him. Also at this point, two white con Highpass guards will spawn. One of them(not sure which one) has the NO TRADE LORE merchandise you need. You must kill him to get it. Good luck with this part. I had to use all my pillars, taunts and grp buffs to keep aggro because I kept getting KSed by lv60's. I finally got it after about 10 tries. Now talk to the shady dealer. He will thank you for saving him and advance the quest. Now your quest log will say to return to shady swashbuckler with the merchandise so he can inspect it. *NOTE: You CAN advance the quest without the merchandise, but when you go back without it, he calls you a fool for losing the coins and not bringing him the merchandise.*
Return to shady swashbuckler with the merchandise. He inspects it, sees that it is good, and has you bring it to Raethi Slaerin in Freeport. This NPC is located in the merchant house just south of the arena in FP. Give the item to him, and he will give you a receipt. He also tells you that a man named Yindrius wanted to see you. Yindrius is outside the Spiteful Shield guild hall (the SK/CL/RGE guild hall). From the bank, enter the hallway and take your 2nd left. Continue east into the next room, and you will find Yindrius on the South side of the building.
Yindrius says he wants to repay you for your "involvement in this ordeal" and gives you 800 tunar. Now return to shady swashbuckler in Temby. He gave me 1,400,000 XP and a smugglers ring(35 charges). I've heard all over that the ring is an invs ring, but have not used mine yet.
Talk to the swashbuckler again. He says he might have another job for you. He sends you to MTG to speak with Rolby Rumblebelly from the Deeppockets about the attacker. He says to be careful what you tell him as he may not be trustworthy.(I only got the option to describe the attacker to Rolby, nothing else) Rolby is inside the main building in the middle somewhere by a garden. Talk to him and tell him about the attacker. He says it sounds like a halfling who used to be a Deeppocket until just recently named Hulo Bottletop who left to join with an all halfling/gnome/dwarf organization.
Return to shady swashbuckler and tell him. He says the leader of said organization is Cogwhisker. He tells you to go find out what he knows about Hulo Bottletop and if he was acting under their orders. If he was working for them, you must ensure that such action does not happen again (in other words, kill them).

Name:
Cogwhisker, gnome bandit, dwarf bandit, and halfling bandit all spawn due East of DM at the bandit camp (bandit hills(w) I believe) in an empty tent on the West side of the camp. The respawn on Cogwhisker is 1/2 hour. The respawn on his buddies is 15 min. They first appear as neutral lv30 mobs. Talk to Cogwhisker. He says he will give you info if you give him 5k.
If you give him the money, he tells you to go back and talk to shady swashbuckler. Unsure if you can continue quest by paying him off.
If you DON'T give him the money, and instead tell him that you will beat the answers out of him, him and his buddies turn into were-rats. Cog is yellow to you, and his buddies are white. They all have A LOT of HP for their respective levels. I think he has a lifetap of some sort that procs once in awhile(sk?). Any that can see you at this point will aggro you. Here's how I did this(after numerous failed attempts to take on 2-4 of them together):
I targetted Cog from outside tent. I hit 'square' as I was running by the tent. Keep moving away from the tent as you're advancing the conversation. By this point you should be far enough away to not aggro any of them. Run around to the back of the tent(a respectable distance away). The new Cogwhisker will walk (on top of the tent itself) around the back of the tent ONCE. This is when you need to pull him if you want him by himself. Body pull him, as I'm not sure a taunt wouldn't draw all 4. If you don't pull him then, he will walk back into the tent and stay there until he despawns in about 5-10 minutes. One time I was able to run(with all 4 on me) up a hill a little ways before I died. I noticed when I went back, they were standing in a grp of 4 on the hill where I died.
However you kill him, it doesn't matter. As long as you get the XP you can advance the quest. He doesn't drop anything. Evil Cogwhisker lays on the ground dead and says (in say mode): "You have bested me. I will tell you what you need to know." A second cogwhisker spawns(the original, non aggro one). Talk to him. He tells you about Hulo and 'allows' you to leave.
Return to shady swashbuckler and tell him about everything. You gain 200 faction with the Topi Di Ombra (that you don't get if you pay off Cog). That brought me up to 0 faction. He sends you back to Yindrius in Freeport. Yindrius sends you on a quest to kill ratweres and bring back 4 tails. He says he will pay you for every 4 you bring him.
I went to Ferran's Hope(s) to look for ratweres, as I heard they spawned there. I found one after an hour of looking and killing mobs. He was red to me. He killed me. The next day, I set out for Wktaan's 4th Talen. I found 4 ratweres in about 20 minutes by killing wildlife there; 2 white ones and 2 dk blue. They gave +10 faction with Topi di Ombra each(and negative faction with ratweres). I went back to Yindrius. Before I got a chance to talk to him, I get a popup. Yindrius is telling me I have been diseased by these creatures. He says it's no big deal, that many of the Topi di Ombra have become wererats. But, if I am scared, I can take this silver potion and it may cure me. I drank the potion. I got -500 faction with Topi di Ombra, bringing me down to -460. I then talked to Yindrius and turned in my 4 tails. I got 800 tunar and +20 faction (bringing me up to -440). He then asked if I'd like to continue collecting tails. I said no. Now he is red-faced(-440 fac) and won't talk to me at all.

Name: NovalyOk first part of bearwere is to get blood from flurry and paw the two bears...they are to the right of Castle Lightwolf on the hill. They are 30 min spawns you will get a pop up after go back to Kiev Bearclaw. Second part go to Anu Village zone (c) look for a hill with rocks in a circle on top of the hill. You'll get a pop up, so run around the hill till you get it. Kill two bears they are called Infected Bears(these are also 30 min spawns), get the organs and go back to Kiev Bearclaw. Anu Village is North of Castle Lightwolf. There are two ways to get there. 1 go round mountain, 2 go thru gate. GL and its best to have a cleric or tank with you or both!
