Week In LOTRO
Andang

Karvett
- This week is Adventures with the Karvlettes: Middle Miss – Dad’s playing a girl!

- Ran with Big Miss in Lone Lands – the Pink Crusader and RK Verde
Teriadwyn
- Got to Rank 6 with Terifluffz the Warg!
- Ran around Lothlorien with my elven RK, Lashillien. She’s up to level 62 and back in Moria. /sigh
- Burglar Saryssa had so-so luck with the RNG: some sweet gear dropped in instances, but the treasure hunt has been unkind.
Pineleaf
- Arkenstone Beorning headed into Forochel with Teri and Drac.
- My ring bearer reached level 49 and started Eregion.
- On Windfola, I continued to run Thievery and Mischief.

“I chose other.
But it’s so simple. Andang has not run out of poll ideas, or this poll would not be here, so clearly I cannot choose the option in front of me.

“Hello Lotroplayers!
I have a question for the gang at LPN. I am always looking out for more good podcasts, which can be difficult to find. Seeing as we have a similar interest (Lotro) what non-Lotro related podcasts do you enjoy listening too? I am a regular listener to “the nerdist”, and “Henry and Heidi”.
Barnabras from the chat
P.S. I have been seeing Kaleigh Starshine out in the Moors this week! I mourn everytime she is defeated….Keep bringing the fight Starshine!!!!”

Thank you for all your kind words regarding The House of Beorn story. I’ve been hearing some great feedback and I hope you continue to enjoy it!
Keep with the pee jokes and urine trouble.
I can’t believe I missed the live chat with a Pvmp topic! For me the Pvmp element of the game is a great change of pace to the Pve aspect of the game. How many time can you make a new character and run the same quests? Fighting against other players provides a new and unique challange. The key to monster play is being comfortable with dying. You will die a lot, but don’t worry it doesn’t hurt. I am already up to 1600 deaths, and I am only rank 11. I usually play when both raids are out, and it is adrenaline charged.
Thank you for the kind comment, Barnabras! And great show, everyone!
All I can say is, after listening to this episode, I will be running, hiding, fleeing, whatever I need to do to get away from any wargs I come across… 🙂
Did anyone else hear Pineleaf utter the phrase “whore licking good” or was it just me?!?!!
Hey! Thanks for the plug by the way!!!!
