"•The different versions of the Tactics buffs now stack with one another."

I don't understand this at all. It's my understanding that "Tactics" is the buff you receive when using the Sure Strike...

/agreed

Completely.

I agree. But it's par for the course for Turbine these days. All they do is keep marginalizing our effort and penalizing us for success. I'd probably be a lot happier if I just gave up and just...

One of my kinnies was saying that in order to get Challenge Mode on any scaled instance, you had to do it on level (which means 95...)

Is this true? I can't find it in a Patch Note (though I...

As has been said over and over, the outage wasn't Turbine's fault, and they fixed it as quickly as possible.

I've been a LOTRO player since Beta 1 and can count on one hand how many times...

That said, I'm not convinced that induction reduction is working the way it should. I may be tripping over animation confusion, but it often appears that my speed isn't where it should be. /shrug

No changes. Well played RKs and Champs still roflstomp our DPS most of the time.

It has been suggested that Hytbold might be used for things beyond it's current value as a 44 day time sink. If that's true, then it would behoove us all to get it rebuilt, so that if it's needed...

I used my 65 First Age all the way up to 85. My effectiveness wore off quote a bit toward the end, but it was never really a problem. The levels come fast enough that it's generally not worth the...

In the original Thorog fight, there was literally (not virtually) nothing for Burglars to do but sit on Thorog's ledge and pop a conjunction on him to prevent him from healing between phases. It was...

I got my set before Update 9. In your case, it may be worth while to save your Hytbold tokens for rebuilding Hytbold, and use Skirmish Marks to buy the level 85 BG set.

There's no right or wrong. I run with 3 Huntsman and 3 Bowmaster, and I'm just biding my time till Update 10 comes out to see if there's anything worth upgrading to.

It wouldn't be LOTRO if someone wasn't telling me I didn't know how to play my class. (I started my Hunter in Beta 1)

Ebbing Ire is a skill that's been in since release. At that time...

Or..a Hunter can do his job and wait a few seconds for the tanks to do their job. This is a solution for a problem that doesn't exist. Other than to say the only problem is that Hunters love...

As evidence that you're generally right about how Hunter's aren't desired, I can tell you this...

My Hunter is my main. Except for Gold gear, she's generally got about the best gear available,...

PUG'ing isn't Raiding... just sayin'.

And Raiding kins don't have the same prejudice against Hunters that PUGs do.

You think bad and stupid players should be able to finish content and get loot?

erm... Whiskey Tango Foxtrot?

Quoted For Truth


at 85, my morale flucuates between about 7800 and about 9400 unbuffed, depending on whether Im wearing my AGI gear or my Morale gear.

Don't. Just wear the quest reward gear till you hit 85. When you hit 84, you'll start rebulding Hytbold, and the Hytbold set will become your near armor of choice.

I've been pugging Durchest a lot. Even though Viaticus does a full BG clear 2 times a week or so, it's fun seeing other people's strategies.

Some people have said that the Durchest farming is out...

So based on all this, I think wwe can safely conclude that things are cruising along, same old same old, at Turbine.

Awesome.

When you say "our dev"...who are you referring to?

That's basically the conclusion we came to last night. Problem is.. Turbine is the only company I know of that bottlenecks DPS thtough animation. So, again, the overall question is how does this...
