New Player Question
What all do you have to do to become “Skirmisher of Middle-earth?”
Week In LOTRO
Teriadwyn
- Teriadwyn finished the new area! Except for bonus quests that were added later, because she is DONE helping bears. For now, anyway. Smaug’s diary unlocked!
- Saryssa finished Snowbourne questing and started the Hytbold rebuild in addition to making her way to Wildermore. Already Kindred with the Sutcrofts, so lots of Hytbold already completed.
- Made a new OP furball for my niece to play so long as she reads all of the quest text out loud. Butterflye the Beorning finished the starter instance.
Cyndars
- Ran the RIFT for the first time yesterday with seven other people (some GRRLZ, some LPN, and some Academy folks)
- Opened the Resource Instances on my main character, Cyndarina
- Power Levelled Emerallina with the GRRLZ on Sunday. She is now at 102.
Pineleaf
- For Friday Night Fights, I was leading the high-end group and they asked for something exotic. I therefore chose Survival: Barrow Downs, Rescue at Nûrz Ghâshu, and Protectors of Thangúlhad.
- My Anor warden headed into the Northern Barrow Downs and made several visits to the festival sites. I now have all of the dances available on the server.
- My burglar headed into the Great River.

Hello to Pineleaf and the Angels! Been enjoying LPN for a while now, keep up the great work!
The New Player Question this week regarding the Traveller boost skills was a great one. I’ve never picked them up, and have been kicking myself for not doing so years ago. The reason for this “self-kicking” lies in the missed opportunity to snatch them ALL up in a package that was offered before Free 2 Play was around. Pineleaf will correct me if I’m wrong (I know you will, Pine…), but there was at one time a bundle purchasable through the LOTRO store for several thousand Points that included all 3 Travel skill cooldown boosts along with 3 additional milestone skills. Not only that, there was account-wide version for additional Points.
Like I said…still kicking myself…
Take care, ‘Players!
