14.2 - Bullroarer Focus

[xRaina]

Hello everyone!

Welcome to Bullroarer for 14.2! Along with a number of bug fixes and adjustments, there are several bigger additions to take a look at this weekend.

The Dead Marshes
Return to the Caves of the Avorrim in West Gondor and speak to Dorthaneth to begin your adventure into the Dead Marshes.

Collections
Using shift C or via the arrow menu, open the Collections menu to view and inspect Mount and Pet collections.

Skirmish Traits
Higher level skirmish soldier traits are now more potent. These adjustments were made to impact mitigations, armour, power, and morale. DPS and Tank typed Skirmish traits received the most attention. Threat and healing were not adjusted. You can also purchase access to more tiers of Skirmish traits via the LOTRO store.

Make sure to check out the Patch Notes posted for this round of Bullroarer for any smaller changes to take a look at while on the server.

Please post your reactions in the Bullroarer forums and be sure to file any bugs you come across! We look forward to hearing what you have to say about the development done for 14.2

Note: Bullroarer has had a database wipe. All previous characters are gone. Please use the Bullroarer Character Copy to copy your characters over to the server, or create new characters using the Eyes and Guard Tavern!

Thanks for your all your help, and I'll see you on Bullroarer!

I was wondering if there is any word on the Gondor, and Hytbold, housing items that have the wrong hook listed. I really want to get them, but not until they are fixed. Any word on them would be nice, other than "we're aware of it." :P

Any chance to see some fixes for lokalisatione (There are still some things for example the daylies in Tarlangs Crown or all armoury in Dol Amroth -> DNT - Something!).

Collections - I like the idea, although it's annoying to see store-only mounts included.
I expected to be able to click on the icon and summon the mount/pet - I hope this will be added.

The Dead Marshes is an interesting "maze."

The map only partially works -- no locations (including the main camp) show up.

No deeds? Nothing showing up in quest log as yet.

Got a "strange" title when I first logged in with a level 100 Copied character (Kindred with everybody except Wildemore Survivors) -- "Kin to the Free Peoples" -- "You have completed the 'Rider of the Free People's collection."
No reference to it in the Deed log that I can find. So I have no idea what I did to achieve it.

Concerning the frogs cosmetics pets, I didn't found where to get them. Using token from Dol Amroth to get them does not fit in my sense. I would rather see them acquired when roaming in the marshes, for completing quests like the flowers one or with an hidden deed.

I wondered the same thing when I got the title, then I found that the info is under the new "collections" tab. You get this title when you've earned both the World Renowned steed and the Elf Ambassador steed.
