Hello again, dear LOTRO Players! Ravi here, once more!
I think I may have been slowly graduating from a new player to a relatively seasoned player because the other week I had a fun experience that involved me answering a bunch of questions from a new player!
Someone messaged me in-game out of the blue ( bc world chat is disabled for new players until level 20, I think?), and among other stuff, they asked me how to get a mount. (Mind you, we were both FTP)
That was what caused the adventure, because it turned out that they did the Little Extra quest part 1 and bought the lil 10point quest, but never cashed it in in the intro. And by the time we talked, they were out in the open world. So with a quick check, I confirmed that our way now led to Mossward, where the dwarf will grant the starter horse even to FTP folks! buuuuut the problem with Mossward is that it doesn’t have swift travel for FTPs. XD So what happened was that we simply ran there, my higher level character protecting their lvl12-ish one. I loved doing it!!!! Would work full-time as an escort for lowbies to get them to Mossward. XD The best social time I’ve had in the game so far!
So, courtesy of this experience, a new player question: How can one get a horse? Especially on a FTP account???
And especially nowadays, since a lot of things changed even within the last couple years (myself, back when I started, I honestly saved the 95 LP to buy riding trait from the store and was in the process of saving up silver to buy a horse when the 15th anniversary dropped me a free one). I understand things are easier these days – so what’s the best way of action? e.g. if you sadly miss your chance in the intro area… is the only option hauling it to Mossward on foot with or without the kindness of strangers?
Thanks again for the good podcast!
Ravi (the eater).
