Even good looking Minas Tirith inspired PvMP gear in Ettenmoors at LvL 100. Since then it's gone mostly downhill on designing good looking gear in my opinion.

Speaking of which...

Revised Captain of Gondor outfit, using a combination of Dunland and Ettenmoors armour pieces, with the cloak and steed from the store. Probably been done a million times, but it just had to be done :)

Your Screenshots looks really nice. Well done !!!

Yes, I agree. I too really like that chest piece and those gloves from Ettenmoors. I also use it to create a Minas Tirith outfit as You can see in a reply I made in this thread from back in August 2018:

As I said before, it is offered as a reward in Chapter 8: Before The Doors Of Durin (part of the Moria intro, the chain of quests that both gives You the Legendary weapon skill, as well as access/entrance to Moria. However I think that particular quest rewarded a choice multiple items, so You have to chose the one You want.

For the two-handed version Kaeneth gave You info in an earlier reply on how to obtain that. It is quite possible that this one-handed version can also be crafted and share the same skin with this quest reward sword called "Survivor's Blade". Not sure.

I hope You will find this useful.

And of course I also use the same mount and cloak. :)

I don't normally use the sword that I use in that image with the outfit. I only used it there in that reply as someone was looking for a similar looking sword.

Yeah I’m not sure why they look so dark. They seemed brighter on my PC when I posted them than they do now on my phone.

I have turned up the brightness using my phone’s editor - I think I might have lost some of the image quality now but see how these look:

https://lotrostuffhome.files.wordpre...2114.jpg?w=768

https://lotrostuffhome.files.wordpre...2115.jpg?w=768


Jacket, gauntlets and leggings of the causeway, medium armour vendor at Glan Vraig in the Ettenmoors. For some reason, the heavy version of the chestpiece doesn’t have the right tree on it and the gloves don’t have one at all, which is a shame as I earned about 9000 commendations to buy the three pieces and it isn’t the best choice for the captain to wear. But if you are a medium class, you can equip this stuff and have blue three slot level 100 essence armour with audacity bonuses too...
Cloak (and steed) of the Citadel Guard, from the store
Shoulders are “Hyrde-Axle”, part of the guardian style set in Dunland
Boots are “Nightshade boots”, part of the Dunland Hunter-style set.
The sword is crafted - Elven greatsword, I think, either tier four or five.

Both the Dunland pieces are available from a range of different quests. Use Lord Funk’s link above if you want to see all the possible combinations.

Thanks!

But more importantly, where did that shield come from? Shields seem to be the most awkward item as you can’t even dye them - I really wish they could be dyed as it would make outfit matching so much easier.

The shield is from a box called "Shield Of The Valiant" that I bartered for Ash back in Mordor. I think You can get the box for Figments now though. Not 100% sure. Once You have the box, You click to open and can chose from a number of shield cosmetic skins for either in Your hand or on Your back (same skins for both options)

Here is one of my edgy high elf, Aurthiel's, outfits! A pretty yet still emo (hopefully) party dress!

https://i.imgur.com/Ex3TOBe.jpg?1

https://i.imgur.com/Rahocib.jpg?1

Head:: Simbelmyne Circlet, dyed purple.
Neck:: Yule Scarf, dyed black.
Dress:: Short Sleeved Elven Dress, dyed red.
Cloak:: Cloak of Mordirith's Bane, default.
Sword:: Champion's Great Sword of the Third Age.

Jeebuz, really need that Norcroft one for my Captain, Warden and Guardian. Game still has its surprises...

This is my best effort to create a mean looking hobbit. Most of the outfits (and faces) seem to look quite comical on hobbits and I wanted to try and do something that actually makes him look like he means business:

https://lotrostuffhome.files.wordpre...28105135_2.jpg

https://lotrostuffhome.files.wordpre...28105245_1.jpg

Head: Dolen-Helm, grey dye (Dunland quest reward)
Chest: Dreng-Breost, grey dye (Dunland quest reward)
Gloves: Dunland Marcher's Leather Gauntlets, black dye (Dunland quest reward)
Plain cloak, grey dye (Outfitter)
Daggers: Swift dagger of stone-cutting (looted somewhere in Moria)

By the way, I have a question for all of you - does anyone know of a good pair of trousers with NO belt? I have a great shirt and waistcoat that I use, but that has a belt with it too, and it looks odd having two belts. Any ideas? Ideally a pair that will dye very black.

Define "no belt"?

Elven Gear has belt, but not as protruding as Rohan gear, for example. Many trousers or leggings waistline are hidden by chest piece, which in turn has a belt.
In the LIDB I find 97 "trousers" 17 "pants" and 814 "leggings". Most with images, but also many reused designs for different levels.

Thanks for the reply!

I mean no visible belt at all. The shirt/waistcoat chest item I want to use (“Lavanham”, a light piece of blue gear from Isengard) is one that doesn’t cover any of the leggings/trousers/pants at all, and it has its own belt as part of the item. Therefore if the trousers have a belt visible, it looks like the character is wearing two belts.

Btw TheArtilleryman and Marancil. In case You don't know there are also some shield skins to barter for with "Newfound Coin" that You gain from doing daily LvL cap Featured Instance Challenge.

https://lotro-wiki.com/index.php/Item%3ANewfound_Coin

When You've earned enough of those You can go to the NPC Quartermaster (Featured Challenge Rewards Vendor) and barter for special cosmetic skins as well as 115 gear. Also a rideable/mount "Elk Of Felegoth's Night" and some pets.

https://lotro-wiki.com/index.php/Qua...ewards_Vendor)

3 different shield skins can be bartered there. All 3 shield have 2 versions each as well. One for the back and one for holding in the hand.

Shield Of Rohan

https://lotro-wiki.com/images/d/db/S...ohan_Kings.jpg

Shield Of The Westfold

https://lotro-wiki.com/images/3/3e/S...e_Westfold.jpg

Shield Of Faldham

https://lotro-wiki.com/images/e/e6/S...of_Faldham.jpg

Elk Of Felegoth's Night (not to be confused with the elk of felegoth's glory)

https://lotro-wiki.com/images/thumb/...%27s_Night.jpg

Personally I think the shields all become a bit too large when held in the hand on a male race of men character, but the backslot cosmetic versions looks nice. It's all just a matter of taste anyway.

I just though that maybe You did not know of these as You did not know if the other shorld skins from that box, so maybe You will find this info useful. :)

So many nice outfits. Thanks all for sharing.

Are they actually thus labeled in the box? Hoom, the devs don't know their own content... That is not a shield of the Wold, the green helm symbol is Norcrofts. And the red wheat symbol is Sutcrofts, so that's obviously no shield of Norcrofts. The Aria of Valar era when everyone skips Rohan to know the difference.

Shabby leggins has a rope instead of belt, but I guess you're looking for something without any waist support. It dyes very black though, and soaks up any dye color well.

What's the belted waistcoat you have in mind? Perhaps it has a matching leg piece meant to go together.

You are right, but the Norcrofts span over Ethengells, Faldham and Cliving. All except Cliving have their own symbol in addition to the Norcrofts one, which is also the Cliving Banner. Ethengells has a Statue from Argonath and Faldham has a Caparison. Cliving has the Helm we see on the shield.

Frankly considering Hytbold is so close to Faldham I find it odd it's part of Sutcrofts, but that's another story, same for Eaworth wchich is in the Entwash Vale with Thornhope... both could arguably be part of Norcrofts.

The Excessive Luminosity. Armour of the Lady's Defence {Dar Narbugud set} Dye: Black.

Server: Ithil{Legendary}
Extraordinarily gorgeous armour, fits perfectly for my Raven black Goddess.

Cloak: Legolas's cloak

I do love the green leaf, Fits her Emerald Green Doe eyes!

It is from ToO. It has a different name (Lavanham) but it looks like this:

Not sure, as that image I just found by searching and added it so You guys could see the shields. I used the box I bartered for so I can't see what each shield skin is accually labeled as in-game.
