Braag left a comment on LOTRO Players News Episode 147:
FYI, there is a literary reference for the fountain in Edoras, although you can still argue that turbine might’ve interpreted it to be a bit more grand than Tolkien described:
“The travellers entered, walking in file behind their guide. They found a broad path, paved with hewn stones, now winding upward, now climbing in short flights of well-laid steps. Many houses built of wood and many dark doors they passed. Beside the way in a stone channel a stream of clear water flowed, sparkling and chattering. At length they came to the crown of the hill. There stood a high platform above a green terrace, at the foot of which a bright spring gushed from a stone carved in the likeness of a horse’s head; beneath was a wide basin from which the water spilled and fed the falling stream. Up the green terrace went a stair of stone, high and broad, and on either side of the topmost step were stone-hewn seats.”

Great show, somehow Pineleaf was extra awesome this week. As for the hunter being revamped, perhaps it has something to do with Pvmp. I know when I see a hunter, I rub my hands together and think “allright free lunch”. They are the most underpowered of classes, except maybe the Burgalar. A well geared and skilled gaurdian, however is almost unkillable.
Chickens don’t craft. They outsource it. But got to read to whom.
Check the Instance Finder Panel – they are listed as “Epic Battles”. So, whoever coded that, doesn’t seem to care what Vyvyanne wants to call them…
Great show all, I really liked the academy Crafting, as a very new player looking forward to 2nd part. Just Up date from my first comment I am loving levelling my first character and working my self to rivendell. But after to listen to your moira Review(Great job again) Really looking forward to see it for my self
P.s Also want to say a thank you to pineleaf for his Beorning lets play on youtube as been using it as guide when get stuck or not sure where to go
