Quote from Itamar on YT

Maybe I am blind but couldn’t find an episode on role-playing in lotro…it is something I am thinking about trying for the first time in my mmo career (been playing mmo’s for longer than I care to admit)

Week In LOTRO

Andang

  • Did a PvMP stream to celebrate 500,000 views
  • Continued going to past areas
  • 2 hours of Professor tech support

 

Iogro

  • Hit lvl 85 with my Rune Keeper
  • Took my Hunter into Central Gondor
  • First episode of LOTRO Players News 🙂

 

Maven

  • Sunday Great Barrow SUPER FUN (Karv will talk about it?); did it again on Tuesday, very different experience!
  • Moved the kin house to Thorin’s Hall and also moved my own houses to the same neighborhood
  • Running my LM around Lone Lands to get rep and deeds

 

Karvett

  • Leveled Arkenstone Champ to 21 in case Lotro Academy stuff happens. Named him Forthwyth UndHenceforth.
  • Ran Great Barrows with lower level group with people new to their classes. Last burglar standing at Barrow Caller in the Maze.
  • The Family Line inspired me to play my Lore Master again… questing through Eregion without an LI staff.

 

Teriadwyn

  • Broke a quest in Osgiliath with Teriadwyn, so I had my first experience chatting with a GM in-game.
  • Fornost with no-longer-level-50 group.
  • First recording of Academy as co-host! Also first field trip.

 

Pineleaf

  • During the Field Trip my Captain finished Central Gondor and started Eastern Gondor.
  • Ran quests in North Lebennin on Laurelin. While fighting some Haradrim, I had a goat threaten to attack. The goat then attacked the scout and left combat as soon as the scout was dead.
  • Ran the Silvertine Lodes with my Beorning.

“YES: I don’t even play PvMP but keeping all factions happy in LOTRO is a great idea…and maybe one day I will be joining in the fight as well.”

“This was not documented in the patch notes for Update 16, but you can now only get Black Dye from a guilded scholar, it was a Critical chance before on Rust Dyes.

Managed to sell some already this week.

  1. Burglarious isn’t a made up word, by the way. I’m just at that part of your podcast so I don’t know if you correct yourselves later. It means of or pertaining to burglary, or behaving like a burglar.

    Karvett, thank you for your kind words. Its nice to hear a synopsis of the story. I hope you enjoy the next 25 parts. Enjoy your LM 🙂
    Also, Iogro, thank YOU for what you said about the series. Your series is very informative, excellent writing, and the pics you choose go so well with each part. There is so much put into each part I have to read it a couple of times just to make sure I didn’t miss anything.
