New Player Question

Is it better to stack physical mitigations, tactical mitigations, or some kind of combination of both? Does it depend on the class you play?

Week In LOTRO

 

Teriadwyn

  • Teriadwyn finished out the dwarf story so far, and also beat up a bunch of trolls. Feeling very good about PvE Champion DPS.
  • Saryssa did some more work on the Scavenger Hunt! She hasn’t finished Year 3 Trifles because instances are hard, but she did get Year 5 done.
  • Welldressed Killingmachine made it further into Angmar. He stopped at the dwarf area briefly, then headed to Gath Forthnir and even the Volume 1 version of Carn Dum.

 

Celebathien

  • Celebathien attempted to complete the anniversary instances. The twins stymied her by being the twins.
  • Morchandir fiddled around in Bree. Took a picture of The Darkest Assassin in the World returning. It led to conversations about future photo ops of his antics in Middle Earth.
  • Khillien helped take down a rank 15 Hunter in the Moors with his pack. Delightful noms.

 

Aerindys

  • Light week this week – the only thing I was able to do was some warging in the Ettenmoors.

 

Crister

  • Working through Remmorchant – we are feeling really good about the first boss, have gotten as far as getting the two daughters down on the second boss.
  • I will finally be dealing with being banned in Harwick on my upcoming vacation.
  • My kin has a group called the Bear Buddies and we are going to be having our anniversary (I believe our 5 year) by getting together and beeing up stuff.
  • Our former kin leader, who has returned, tricked me into becoming his son, and he has vowed to wear that title wherever we go – trying to emancipate myself currently!

Gwaerendes

  • The Yellow-line hunters launched a lot of fireworks – some of them skills!
  • My lightning RK is also a Master Blaster, much to my amusement
  • Gwaer – Master Herbalist, soon? Mordor update, and….

 

Sanswinda

  • Finished the new epic book so far on Sanswinda and continued helping Beornings on Amelora.
  • Ran through Osgiliath with the Field Trip and made it to Minas Tirith!
  • Went warging and nommed lots of things.

 

Pineleaf

  • My Anor warden finished rebuilding Hytbold. I have not run the final instance as I want to finish up the Sutcroft quest line first.
  • For Friday Night Fights, we ran Battle of the Deep-Way and Fornost Earth Wing.
  • My dwarven minstrel on Landroval quested in the Lone Lands in response to a challenge from the Friday Night Fights
