You can do the equivalent when you're soloing. Pull the entire group and kite them away from their starting location, then Riddle the mob that you intend to burn. HiPS, and all of the mobs except...

In the old days before trait trees, you had seven trait slots to fill with improvements to your skills. The skill traits had colors. At least three blue Gambler line traits would cause Startling...

Sorry to bring up an ancient thread, but this just happened to me, too. Since this post was at the top of the list for the Google search, I figured I'd post to help other folks out who have the same...

For longer fights, I find Quick Knife too squishy. You may want to give Gambler a try.

Bosses generally don't allow you to mez or stun. You will be able to tank better if you do three things. ...

Gambles are kind of tough to wrap your head around. Once you get used to them, however, The Gambler is a very viable tree. At high levels, you get amazing crowd control, the most powerful debuff in...

As I was reading through the thread, I noticed that there was a lot of stuff that made sense for burglars at higher levels, but that may be a bit confusing for folks that had never played a burglar...

Unfortunately, I think this is a difficult question for most of the people who post to this forum. As you mention, many folks are high level, and as such have been playing a long time. Due to the...

I've always kind of hoped that the devs might start using content specific maneuvers to encourage the use of Burgs in group play. Think Draigoch, but rather than requiring the FMs, they just make...

Also, don't forget that you can reset your traits for free at any time with the "Re-specialize" button on your skill tree page. Don't worry too much about what will happen two levels from now. When...

angrymnky, the short answer is ... do whatever you want!

There's no, I repeat ... NO ... cost for changing stuff around. Just click on the "Re-Specialize" button on the bottom of the skill tree...

I'm getting the impression that Hedge Your Bets is more for partial Gambler builds, for example while you're leveling up or if you're building a balanced burglar with skills from all three trees. If...

The legendary item legacy that increases the duration of All In appears to be bugged. The current hypothesis is that the time window for killing mobs to prevent the penalty does not expand to be the...

Upon slotting the "Sword Thief" trait, the "Burgle" skill is modified. The Burglar now has a chance to steal the target's primary weapon, disarming it and limiting weapons based attacks.

As...

This is your chance to practice your perma-mez. Use your Mischief stance to get a 30 second cool-down on Riddle. When the enemies come charging in, be sure to select the Lieutenant and Riddle him. ...

Blind Fury is most useful when soloing. It allows you to choose a location to fight a ranged mob, rather than chasing it around and fighting wherever you happen to catch up with it. This sounds...

As you mention, it is extremely hard to have one character complete all content without outleveling it. This is because, with the exception of Moria, Turbine has basically made at least two and...

Don't worry about it too much. At 85 your mainhand weapon will be your Legendary Item, which doesn't add Physical Mastery outright. Your off-hand weapon will be one of several with nearly identical...

Out of context quote. The full quote is:

"So great a fear did [Celegorm] set in their hearts that never after until the time of Turin would any Elf of that realm go into open battle; but with...

I'd settle for one change. Exploit Opening works on every boss. Trip, marbles, Exposed Throat, conjunction starters for other classes ... the bosses can still be immune to those. But Burglars...

When soloing crowded areas, I like WPS as as opener on a mezzed mob. If you're not in stealth, it's much better than Cunning Attack. Mez a mob from stealth, and use CA or Surprise Strike from...

Hmmm ... What's a burg without stealth, debuffing and CC? A dual-weilding melee class with completely different trait lines? Presumably one that has better DPS and maybe a little bit of AOE? If...

Unfortunately, I think the tracking items are one of the biggest sellers in the LOTRO on-line store, so I only see one solution. Anti-tracking items in the LOTRO on-line store ...

This is how burglars fight. It doesn't involve poison. (Movie spoilers to follow.)


After that there was a deal of commotion in the spider-colony, and they forgot the dwarves for a bit, I can...

Lao10 give good specifics for high-level burgs, but lower-level burgs need a bit more generality.

The first thing that you want to do, after you apply Reveal Weakness from stealth and then get...

"My Preferences" (upper-right near the language flags), "My Forum Settings", "Edit Ignore List" (left side of screen). It hides the main post, but not the responses. You can't see the pebble, but...
