Den of Pughlak

I just want to stop by, to thanks the devs for making this instance feel very lighthearted with the bright exotic plants, bioluminiscent effects on walls, Aurora borealis underground, colorful mushrooms & toad kissess that make your toon see strange dreams like Crawlers comming out of the kegs, Mad Cows, Purple Oliphants aka Spectral Mûmak (dumbo dream reference) & glow in everchanging colours even after finish the instance. & what is best you can carry some exotic keepsakes to decorate your home! Everytime i run it im laughting from the begining to end.

It's by far my favorite of the Gundabad cluster.

Have to agree: best instance in Gundabad . Cool plants, sweet lavender, luminous frog as drop. And totally funny, crazy area Thanks for that devs!

I just got a wild idea inspired on this instance: Add a new cosmetic pet to the game: Baby Spectral Mûmak. Will could use the same model as Baby Mumak but in a purple spectral version.

I took a screenshot for the players that are still too low level to go in this instance but wish to see a teaser. My well travelled turtle cosmetic pet Operation-Unleashed & me, went to visit Pughlak boss again. You can see that he is concern about our presence.

Similar to the Halls of Memory, this space was a lot of fun because it was an opportunity to just to crazy stuff in it. We don't often get to lean into the surreal in LOTRO. Sure - the game is a fantasy game, but it often has a very grounded look and feel to it. Den of Pughlak was an chance for us to go a bit wild - get our own version of "The Upside Down" into the game.
