In 12-mans, yes. In 6-mans, no.

Every instance in the game will tend to have at least one tank and one healer. And the set of all instances is much larger than the set of all raids, while...

So with the Minstrel rework on Bullroarer, it seems clear now that the future of LOTRO is classes having two specializations and one "passive" tree. Which is going to be controversial, inevitably,...

I just wanted to highlight these comments, because I think they really get at what I said earlier about the class not really living up to its theme. As it is, we have a lot of upkeep to fill out our...

It's been ages since I played in any organised sort of way, so I won't say too much for myself there. I will say that I think Captain has a very sound conceptual identity, but the gameplay doesn't...

I'm coming back to the game after a couple of years off, and I just want to say how amusing it is to know that this is a legitimate discussion in the game now! I was a big advocate for Captain...

I could do either day. I'll be there!

IMO, U23 did make things a bit better for Captains. Self-healing in red line is definitely lower than I'd like, but at least mobs die faster than they respawn now. :rolleyes:

There's also the further question of whether people are slogging through this #### just because they spent money on it and feel obligated to. If people are finishing Mordor out of obligation and then...

The updated Old Forest looks spooky as heck. :eek:

Exactly, WoW is sub-only. If I want to play WoW, I have no idea but to pay whatever Blizzard wants me to pay. I have no choice in the matter.

With LOTRO, I have a choice between sub+expansion or...

The only thing I want from my subscription is access to all the story content. No arbitrary "everything but expansions" nonsense. If I'm paying a sub, I deserve everything the game has to offer....

Soloing Mordor with Yellow spec is doable, BUT:


Most of the trait points in Yellow are either useless or unnecessary for soloing, so don't fill out the whole tree
The entire rest of your...

This part can't be emphasised enough. The Radiance mechanic in Mordor means that gear from outside Mordor is complete junk inside Mordor, regardless of how good the stats are.

So, the issue I have with Barad Dur is not an abstract question of "difficulty", rather there's a very specific Bad Game Design Trope that you inflict on the player:

The quest requires you to...

This is one of the reasons I honestly don't like expansions that much. You need to have enough "stuff" in the expack to make people who shell out for it feel like they got their money's worth, but...

The wording does suggest that the instance cluster is not included with the LP purchase. (It is with the expack purchase.) Most likely they haven't decided on the LP pricing for the instance cluster...

The Standard pack not including High Elves wouldn't be so bad if the race would be available for LOTRO points immediately. Instead, according to the FAQ, neither the expack or the race will be...

No LOTRO Point purchases for either the expack or High Elves until winter? Way to insult your loyal subscribers.

Well, it's an expansion, and expansions have always been about double-dipping into...

Yeah, but it was in closed beta for quite a few weeks before then.

Overall, I have to agree with the OP. Secret World Legends is keeping their NDA in place right up until launch, and I think that...

It's because they're using Skype. My employer uses Skype for teleconferencing, and we have the EXACT same issues. Our networking team has been working with Skype for months trying to resolve it, but...

If you equip the horseshoe and then double-click all ten scrap papers in the last light of Durin's Day, all will be revealed.

The "Eye" debuff usually signifies a condition that either gets progressively nastier the longer it stays on or else a condition that causes a really nasty effect when it expires. Some challenge...

ITT: People proving why it's a good idea for devs not to play under well-recognised character names.

I finally got a chance to start the Scavenger Hunt quests, and wow. Right in the feels, man!

(My only wish is that one of the future hunts involves visiting a bunch of Bards and Class Trainers....

Disarm seems to be a lot more common than Stun. Stun I usually only get on some of the (intentionally) tougher mobs like Trolls.

Anyway, Disarmed is easy to clear now with Muster Courage. I...
