Teri’s pick of the week: Summer Nights by Cosmetic LOTRO

New Player Question

Are the NPCs that phase in a new mechanic of the game (re: Lyndelby) or have they been around a while?

Week In LOTRO

Aerindys

  • Mainly worked on my main champion who is now Level 77.
    • Lheu Brenin is a son of a hamster. Enough said.
    • Went through the Prisoner of Isengard segments of the Epic Story for the first time. Those were awesome and I took a ton of screenshots. 
    • Fangirled all over the Rohan camps in the Gap of Rohan (around the Heathfells, below Nan Curunir).

Celebathien

  • Visited Lyndelby on Khelevorn and discovered it’s populated only by chickens. Chickenby.
  • Went Roving Threat Hunting with the Grrlz. We only had one death and had to hunt for them. I think they knew we were coming.
  • Ran the fellowship Weathertop instance with ALL THE DPS with the Academy. No goblin was spared. Though seriously, Candaith, we just healed ourselves but you’re still playing up those wounds? Faker.

Gwaerendes

  • I discovered that I am still not a tank.
  • My Hobbit yeoman decided to leave Bree.
  • What Gwaer accomplished this week: MM & Wells, and interior decorating

Sanswinda

  • Finished getting rep to rebuild Hytbold and went housing item shopping throughout Middle-earth.
  • Did some deeding in the Barrow Downs and got more Brie.
  • Worked on plugging holes in armor and am not keen to redo this with raid armor should I ever get any.

Teriadwyn

  • Axli and Friends finally got to Dunland. Focused on the epic story in Volume 3, at least for now, so they’re already in Galtrev instead of still helping people in the Stag Clan Village.
  • Laurelin!Teriadwyn did a few quests around Stoke but still isn’t ready to move on just yet.
  • Ran with the field trip through retaking Weathertop, trying to remember how to RK.

Pineleaf

  • My Anor warden attempted to speed along an evacuation and gained two houses.
  • During the field trip, we headed into the Lone Lands
  • During Friday Night Fights, we ran Storm on Methedras, Bells of Dale, and Defence of the Prancing Pony.
