I'm hoping to reach kindred standing with the Galadhrim in order to acquire the mount, but I can't seem to find a task board anywhere in Lothlórien. Am I missing something obvious?
Thanks.

No, you're not. Neither the Galadhrim nor the Malledhrim (in Mirkwood) have task boards. I don't know if you're overlevelled or not, since finding low level groups isn't easy across the board, but the easiest way to farm Galadhrim rep for me has always been running the instances (Halls of Crafting & Dar Narbugud, mainly).Quote:

Much obliged, Laurelinarien! I suppose there's no point in asking why these two areas are excluded, it's just SSG being weirdly SSG. :D
Which I'm now doing, but instead of wandering the beautiful Golden Wood as I'd expected, I'm now lost in the long dark of Moria! Thanks for the tips.Quote:

Ah, please excuse my (honest) mistake... thank you for clarifying.
The Task Boards where created after the creation of Lothlorien. They didn't abandon something that didn't exist yet. The task boards started with the creation of FTP system & they where meant of a way to assist to raise reputation, not the main source of it. I clearly recall that back then the devs said that Lothlorien didn't need task boards because that area have plenty repeatable quests, some that can be done more than once a day. That was added to the deeds & direct reputation granted on from kills on Lothlorien instances pack. So instead of assigning a handful of tasks for the FTPs they made a few repeatable quests free to everyone.Quote:

Correct, not all zones have task boards/not all reputations have task boards. Some zones have task boards for more than one reputation. Consulting lotro-wiki can help you figure out how to gain specific reputation. Not all reputations are the same, but these are the 2 ways to usually go about it:
Main Pattern to Gaining Reputation with Task Board Available -
- [1]Quests
[2]Deeds
[3]Task Board (If Needed)
Main Pattern to Gaining Reputation without Task Board Available -
- [1]Quests
[2]Deeds
[3]Daily Quests and/or Mob Kills
