Sapience took the official forums with a post detailing some upcoming downtime.

 

On Monday November 18^th, all LOTRO Game worlds will be brought down at 6:00 AM Eastern time (-5 GMT) as we prepare for the release of the Helm’s Deep expansion. In addition, the LOTRO Store will be taken down at 5:00AM Eastern (-5GMT).

Release notes will be made available during the downtime.

 

There was no uptime stated in the post, so I’m not sure how long it will last.. it would be a good idea to keep an eye on the twitter feed to see when worlds will be back up!

So, what are going to do with your time, as we wait for the Helm’s Deep?

1. Go back and watch/listen to Episode 20 Of LOTRO Player News. Where we talk about things Helm’s Deep and our experiences in the beta

2. Review all the class changes Helm’s Deep Class Changes: A First Look Index

3. Watch Peter Jackson’s Vision of the Battle Of Helms Deep
