Week In LOTRO

 

Teriadwyn

  • Aria’d LM completed the last of the Mirkwood skirmishes, so she is finished with Volume 2 except for the epilogue.
  • Frolicked in the Moors on Arkenstone, escorting Cyndars’s new baby warg. Hit all of the points needed to get her good Grams map.
  • Took advantage of the sale on character slots to buy 5 more so that my pages will even out again, then made a new hobbit hunter on Landroval: Avecwinda.

 

Aerindys

  • Due to real life I have not been able to play much, so I mostly just did a lot of jumping off of bridges to avoid mobs in the Waterworks.  

 

Sanswinda

  • Went on a mission to discover where you can ride a hobby horse, and had a disappointing time discovering places you can’t ride a hobby horse.
  • Argued futilely with the stable masters who are still randomly refusing to be helpful, and went trick or treating.
  • Admired the new warning signs in Jarnfast while helping the dwarves, before enjoying a trip to the Moors.

 

Pineleaf

  • Sunday group made its first attempt at a Tier 3 skraid after update. Splat.
  • During the field trip, we helped some glass blowers in the North Farthing.
  • Helped Bingo take care of a curse at the Eerie Acres.

Featured Comments

Anorean left a comment on last week’s LPN:

“Pine pants” made me burst out laughing . My biggest pet peeve is not being able to give elvish or dwarfish names to legendary items or crafted items. What gives? My high elf lore master couldn’t name her pet, the kalpa kita, the elvish word for icicle (I wanted to use Sindarin Aeglos as opposed to Quenyan Helen) but I’ve run into this issue repeatedly when crafting jewellery. Names are important and it interferes with my fun. …
