Week In LOTRO
Aerindys
- Did some PvMP with Cyndars, Sans, and Grey in Osgiliath with my baby warg
- Ran the Epic Volume 1 Prologue on my Beorning and found out just how OP the Beorning really is.
Teriadwyn
- Yet more skirmishes. Finally beat that warg with the ridiculous bleed.
- Other Champion started the long, long road to guilded cooking.
- Saryssa the burglar reached level 91 and finished up in Aldburg, off to Fenmarch.
Sanswinda
- Ran some T3 skirmishes to kill harbingers.
- Reached level 47 on Anor.
- Started guild rep work on Anor for my tailor and woodworker.
Pineleaf
- Many skirmishes. The highlight during this was when in a solo Ford of Bruinen run, an extra elite defiler spawned.
- During the field trip, my connection to Arkenstone was dodgy, so we ran Tinnudir quests on Anor instead.
- My burglar finished questing in Parth Celebrant, which will conclude my time in the Great River region.

I got another question this week that I hope will be seen in time for next week’s show. Is it worth my time to make a separate trait builds for soloing content and for grouping up? If not then what do you do to balance your characters for the two forms of play?
