New Player Question

When playing in a group and you enter an area that has a lot of players in it, sometimes a notification will sometimes pop up and say that you and your party members are on different tiers or layers. Is there any way to get everyone on the same tier/layer?

 

Week In LOTRO

 

Black

  • Went from level 20 to 79 in fishing! Starting to catch prime fish now, but the Trout Master Title is managing to elude me.
  • Trying to take advantage of the welcome back weekend to get my Minstrel Tonick from 110 – 115. Got the title Well Preserved at 111!
  • Helping brother-in-law slowly through his 100’s
  • Got the Puzzle Goat from Northern Mirkwood

 

Teriadwyn

  • Got around to doing the Allegiance daily quests for the Dwarves: first quest was the Ale Kegs in Talath Urui, which is the best quest ever! Dwarves continue to be better to work for than Elves.
  • Warden Meledhriel took Pineleaf and Black alts hunting for warbands in the Wold, then ran the Tham Mirdain instances.

 

Sanswinda

  • Went scourge hunting in Northern Mirkwood with PLOI.
  • Led an unauthorized cheese hunt.
  • Danced with Thranduil.

 

Pineleaf

  • During the Field Trip, we headed into the Lone Lands to deal with some goblins.
  • On Crickhollow, my warden attempted to tank a couple skirmish raids.
  • My Gladden Lore-master demonstrated how quickly a menagerie can kill a skirm boss

Greetings everyone.  I have been a longtime fan of yours, and have heard you on various LOTRO podcasts on and off for years now.  As a warden and lover of skirmishes myself, Pineleaf is my LOTRO hero. What servers do you all usually play on, and is there an official Lotroplayers kin and server?  I would love to run some skirmishes or explore middle earth with you guys sometime!

 

Keep up the great work!

    Concerning player question. If you are in fellowship and in different layers in the same area just click an icon with like 3 squares on your screen. It lets you transfer to your fellowship leader layer. If you are not in fellowship you need to join fellowship first.

    Here’s what I see when Pineleaf’s Loremasters pet attacks the 21st Hall boss (1 minute in) (It’s from Shrek 2)
