Week In LOTRO

 

Teriadwyn

  • Grrlz of Middle-earth witnessed Radagast’s Epic smackdown of Ivar and finished out Book 2 of Volume 1.
  • Teriadwyn took a crack at the Howling Pit with Pineleaf and Sans, failed spectacularly.
  • Saryssa finished up in Edoras for now and set out to help more folks in Western Rohan. Finding it’s lots harder to kill things in Western Rohan than it was in Wildermore, even at level 88.

 

Cyndars

  • Very briefly played my new mini today. She’s almost level 19 and has almost completed The Shire deeds.
  • Nothing, new puppy duty.

 

Aerindys

 

  • I have been running around with my baby Beorning and have absolutely LOVED IT, especially running around landscape as a bear (sorry Teri!)

 

 

Pineleaf

  • Anor warden completed the early parts of the Lone Lands as well as the central area of the North Downs.
  • During the field trip, we quested in Wildermore.
  • Burglar finished working in Stangard and headed to the camps east of it.

 

Dwarrow Scholar

  • Winterstock with the Rolling Kegs
  • Leveling up while on the stream on both Anor and Laurelin (Runekeeper, Champ and Guard)

  1. LOTRO Players.. As ever, thanks for everything you do! However, I have to ask..You have the Dwarrow Scholar on your show, He reveals he created an entire written Dwarven Alphabet variant for SSG…He describes his wonder at finding his language in-game used to paper the walls of the room that holds the Black Book of Mordor, and he even relates that he spent a huge chunk of time translating all of that message for his own personal enjoyment… AND NOBODY ASKED HIM TO SHARE WHAT IT SAID! REALLY?!? C’MON GUYS! Maybe it’s not too late to ask him if he can share the text as an article on the site for those interested who don’t mind spoilers??? (BTW, you can’t claim you didn’t ask because of potential spoilers because you put a spoiler alert on earlier in the segment already!

    Cheers to all. Braag, Son of Balin, Proprietor of the the Light the Beacons podcast (perhaps coming up on Episode-100 at some point soon!)
