    Start of Stream - 00:00:00 to 00:11:39 - Early Stream Info:

    • This is largely what is discussed from the "Content of the Stream" Section.



    Cordovan checking Twitch Chat - https://www.twitch.tv/videos/1164443668?t=00h11m40s to 00:14:44 - Twitch Q&A:

    • Cordovan Comment: "It sounds like we may have a bug with the new Valar, I can write that down, copy it into a notepad and follow up after the show here today on that. Someone is saying the new Valars are having a Gating issue trying to get through the Moria Quests."

    • Cordovan Comment: "There is one question that I could follow up on as well. Someone on the Forums has pointed out that currently Essence Reclamation Scrolls can be used to unslot your Traceries, that's not in the Guide here because I wasn't aware that is something we are intending to do. I've heard from Raninia on that, that what we're going to be doing is introducing a new Item that essentially works like the Essence Reclamation Scroll but it is currently working as intended actually that you be able to use Essence Reclamation Scrolls in addition to Mithril as a way to unslot your Traceries if you want to. Now I actually think most people aren't going to want to, for the most part you are just gonna to want to overwrite your Traceries with better Traceries that you get but if you have maybe a bunch of Alts for example you may have some benefit in unslotting your Traceries and doing it that way. So that's going to be an option for you however."



    Cordovan checking Youtube Chat - https://www.twitch.tv/videos/1164443668?t=00h14m45s to 00:19:30 - Youtube & Facebook Q&A:

    • Cordovan Comment: "I don't have word on the LI Bridles, sorry."


    • Question: What elements of the New LI System will be launching first? What parts will be implemented subsequently?

      • Cordovan Answer: "The LI System will debut with Update 30.3, we'll continue to respond to Feedback with patches beyond. No one expects us to be one and done it's a big System that has tendrils throughout the game and while we are working to get as much of that in place as we can for Update 30.3 I think the clear reality is we are going to miss something and then further work is going to need to be done on things like LI Bridles and Conversion of old ingredients, that sort of thing. So that will work be taking place in the following weeks and months after Update 30.3 is released."



    • Question: Reconsider putting EC & OC in the OG spots in the Moors.

      • Cordovan Answer: "I'm going to have to try to decipher your comment on Youtube. Reconsider putting EC & OC to their OG spots in the Moors. I'm gonna have to follow up to find out what EC & OC is talking about there."

        • Note: Cordovan gets info that EC & OC is Elf Camp & Orc Camp in the Ettenmoors shortly after this.



    • Question: Where can we find LOTRO on Youtube?




    • Cordovan Comment: "Yes, we will be having Conversion of Imbued Legendary Items with Update 30.3, I think that's the question you are asking."


    • Cordovan Comment: "Legendary Guild Recipes in the future? I can pass along that feedback."

      • Note: Not sure what this was in reference to and where the Feedback came from as Cordovan was bouncing between Facebook, Youtube and Twitch.




    • Question: I'm a New Player should I wait until the patch to get my Legendary Weapon?

      • Cordovan Answer: "You don't have to, it is true that brand new LI is only going to get you so much under 30.3 but it will get you something. So there is really no need to wait, that said we are only a couple weeks away so I guess it depends on how far away you are to getting your first Legendary Item. It might not hurt just to wait if you wanted to but at the same time you could Convert as well if you wish. I think either option is fine based really on how close you are to completing and playing that content but I don't think I would feel the need to complete that Content."




    Cordovan checking Twitch Chat - https://www.twitch.tv/videos/1164443668?t=00h19m31s to 00:23:09 - Twitch Q&A:

    • Cordovan Comment: "We have mentioned quite a few times that we have no plans to bring a Server to Europe again, sorry."


    • Question: So you will not be able to level a Legendary Item (Current/Old Legendary Item) then break it down?

      • Cordovan Answer: "Not after Update 30.3 is Live, there might be some minor updating you can do to your Old Legendary Item when Update 30.3 is Live but you will not be able to Reforge it. So whatever you can do up to needing to Reforge it you will largely I believe still be able to do but the intention is that System will be dead in 2 weeks here so you know. You'll be able to keep equipping them like we say in the Guide here but you'll be able to equip your existing Old Legendary Items, you cannot however have a Old and a New Item at the same time. That's to do with property stacking, additionally updating your Old Legendary Items will not be possible once you do go through with the Conversion process."



    • Cordovan comments on the Elf & Orc Camps in the Ettenmoors and will check on what possible changes might be coming with Update 30.3


    • Question: If you have unused Relics from previous Expansions will they be obsolete?

      • Cordovan Answer: "You'll be able to in the future Convert them most likely and we'll have more information with what you can do with them. So obsolete to the extent that they don't have a use under the New System is correct but I would not as previously stated not get rid of that stuff. Just hang on to it for now or use it."



    • Question: Will Lore-Masters ever be able to walk with their staffs as walking sticks?

      • Cordovan Answer: "My guess is that would be a little bit of a physics and animation challenge to make that work in a way that really worked. I mean it's a cool idea, I could just imagine it's just gonna be poking through the ground a whole bunch and what have you if we were to try to do it and I'm not sure you'd find that perfect spot where you wouldn't run into an issue."




    Cordovan checking Youtube Chat - https://www.twitch.tv/videos/1164443668?t=00h23m10s to 00:24:09 - Youtube Q&A:

    • Cordovan is asked about Legendary Items and if we'll be able to Convert LIs individually. Another person comments that it is currently a One and Done Process atm.

      Cordovan Answer: "I know that some additional work is taking place between now and then related to the UI, related to quite a bit of work to the Conversion so I think we'll have more information as we get closer to it."




    EU Servers - https://www.twitch.tv/videos/1164443668?t=00h24m10s to 00:24:42 - Cordovan Response:

    • Cordovan Comment: "Yeah I just want to say Harvain we've never had a plan that I'm aware to bring a European Server to the Lord of the Rings Online, at least not for years and years and years. Sorry, I know folks would like us to do it, some people would but it doesn't seem likely."

      • Note: I have a follow up Post with this Thread for LOTRO Community Manager Cordovan due to conflicting information given by SSG here in 2021 on this topic and just to clear this up and get a definitive stance from the SSG LOTRO Team for the LOTRO Community.


    Champion & Rune-Keeper Bugs on Bullroarer - https://www.twitch.tv/videos/1164443668?t=00h24m43s to 00:25:10 - Cordovan Response:

    • Cordovan Comment: "I know that we've been hearing from our Champion and Rune-Keeper Players about some of the Bugs that they have seen on Bullroarer and we know that we have some Balance work to do there and presumably that work will be able to get done in the relatively near future."



    Cordovan checking what he talked about - https://www.twitch.tv/videos/1164443668?t=00h25m11s to 00:26:31 - Cordovan with more Info:

    • Bullroarer Preview for Update 31 not too far away, roughly set for Later October.

    • Trailer for the Brawler Class on Youtube and then an in-game Brawler Class Trailer sometime next week.



    Cordovan playing through Azanulbizar - https://www.twitch.tv/videos/1164443668?t=00h26m32s to 00:38:20 - Cordovan answering Q&A:

    • Cordovan Questing through Azanulbizar for the Blood of Azog Quest Pack.

    • Fate of Gundabad Expansion is available to Pre-Purchase. Link: https://store-new.standingstonegames...tro/expansions

    • Question: Will the Legendary Item Vendor at the Skirmish Camp be deleted?

      • Cordovan Answer: "It seems unlikely that we would quote "delete the Legendary Item Barter at Skirmish Camps." That doesn't, why would we do that? I don't think that's likely to happen. If we need to address that particular Vendor in a way that is not being addressed with the release of Update 30.3 then presumably that is something we can do in the near future. It doesn't seem likely that we would, delete, I don't think we're deleting much of anything in terms of where you got old stuff. If we need to do some additional work we can but for the most part the plan is to largely, places that you are getting LI stuff you will continue to get LI stuff."



    • Cordovan Comment: "The Pelennor Barterer does not have Empowerment scrolls or Crystals, well Empowerment Scrolls and Crystals are going away so that's why that wouldn't be on Bullroarer, if we don't have a replacement for it yet than presumably that is something we'll be adding in the near future."


    • Cordovan Comment: "PvMP Creep Carry All or raise the amount of Items stack to like you guys did with the Crafting resources. I think if there would be a benefit to a PvMP focused Carry All that is certainly something we could look at. I have not heard of any plans to do that but if there is value there why not right?"


    • Question: Is there limitations on what Races that can be Brawler?

      • Cordovan Answer: "The only Limitation is Beorning cannot be a Brawler because the Beorning is essentially hybrid Class-Race but otherwise anyone else who wants to can be a Brawler."



    • Cordovan Comment: "I've seen some comments about concerns about having to hoard Cosmetic looks that might be going away because there are so many Cosmetic looks in the LI System and not all of them are going to be immediate used upon launch. There all going to be coming though I wouldn't be hoard anything but do what you want. Any Cosmetic that has value to Players will undoubtedly be coming back in the future, because why not right?"


    • Question: Any chance for Dwarven beards to be tucked into their belts?

      • Cordovan Answer: "I think there would be again a visual change there will how our avatar models work to make that consistent to where that wouldn't poke through and having a thing poking through that area of your body might have some negative feedback associated with it shall we say but sure, it's a cool idea anyway."



    • Cordovan Comment: "What makes you skeptical about the Cosmetics is that there is a number of nice ones in the Database already with no way to get them. I would love to see a list of which ones those are and pass them along to the Team. I mean the thing about a game that is as veteran as LOTRO is that eventually things get lost in the shuffle sometimes, get rediscovered and reused and it sounds like we have some opportunity there so perhaps its something we can look at in the future but having a list of specifically what those Item names are would probably be the easiest way to reuse them. The LI stuff you know, it's pretty obvious what we have and don't have but for historical items that maybe no longer are around it would be cool to look those up by Item name and perhaps see if there is an opportunity to reuse them in the future."


    • Question: 2 Factor Authentication?

      • Cordovan Answer: "That is a topic that comes up pretty regularly, that is something we absolutely want to do, it's a matter of being able to carve out the available time to do it but it is something we absolutely want to bring to the game in the future."


    • Housing News?

      • Cordovan Answer: "I don't really have any Housing news that I'm aware of. I had one thing I wanted to follow up with Scenario on today and that is the status of the Housing Hook Consolidation, I think that is set for Update 31 but I need to double check on that because I haven't really heard anything about the Housing Hook Consolidation in recent weeks as all the conversation has been about Brawler and Legendary Items."




    Cordovan answering a Question - https://www.twitch.tv/videos/1164443668?t=00h38m21s to 00:38:50 - 2 Factor Authentication:

    • Cordovan Answer: "No, that's not true, you were saying just a few months back it was an absolute no on 2 Factor Authentication, that's not true cause I would be the one saying that and that's what I've been saying for a couple years now that we absolutely want to do 2 Factor Authentication. The reason for that is we absolutely want to do 2 Factor Authentication it's just a matter of making it happen."




    Cordovan fighting in an Instance - https://www.twitch.tv/videos/1164443668?t=00h38m51s to 00:42:10 - Female Dwarves:

    • Cordovan Comment: "Someone is asking if we have Female Dwarves, we do. More explicitly with the Stout-Axes than others but that is something I would like us to do more with in the future."

      • Cordovan comments about Gimli's line from the movies, that LOTRO should have Dwarven ladies looking like how they should and how the movie line has caused so much hassle.




    Cordovan Questing through Azanulbizar - https://www.twitch.tv/videos/1164443668?t=00h42m11s to 00:55:36 - Cordovan answering more Q&A:

    • Cordovan keeps Questing through Azanulbizar, the Blood of Azog Quest Pack.

    • Question: Do you get an in-game Mail when purchase Fate of Gundabad?

      • Cordovan Answer: "Gosh, I've seen your comment, I've been racking my head on that one. I don't know if you get an in-game mail or not. I don't actually know the answer to that one, I can't remember if I got an in-game mail when I picked up Fate of Gundabad or not."

        • Note: You don't receive an in-game mail once purchasing the Fate of Gundabad Expansion, the Player Account will receive an E-Mail on the provided email said Player Account uses to confirm the Purchase of the Fate of Gundabad Expansion.

        • If you are logged in while Purchasing any Expansion, it is best to Log Out & Exit the Game, relog in to receive said Bundle you purchase.

        • The First Player Character logged into AFTER purchasing the Fate of Gundabad Expansion will receive any 1 Time Items (so make sure you are on the Server you WANT these on).

        • Then every Character logged in after purchasing will receive any form of Items in their Inventory if said Bundle provides such.



    • Question: Should we Max Current Legendary Items before Update 30.3 and should we hold onto Current Legendary Item Components?

      • Cordovan Answer: "I don't know that I feel so strongly that you should go out of your way to max out an LI between now and the release of Update 30.3 if you were not already going to be working to max out an LI between now and Update 30.3 anyway. I think what you are looking at is on the Forums, I had said something about we're not looking to try to encourage Min/Maxing or you know kinda Gaming the System for absolute tweaking the best benefit and I know some people wanna do that anyway and that's fine but my advice is to what you should be doing is to do what you are normally doing and don't worry about it."

      • Cordovan Answer: "However, since a lot of Old LIs will no longer be able to be updated upon the release of Update 30.3 if that is a concern to you then yeah, you would want to get some work done on your LIs between now and then. And in terms of the stockpiling of Shards, Empowerment Scrolls, that sort of thing, yeah I would not trash them. In general I don't believe in trashing much of anything but I know that with Inventory being what it is you may have a desire to but at the very least you don't want to do that yet, at least what for the Conversion System to come out."



    • Cordovan Comment: "If you have a bunch of Essences in your bank, should these be trashed? Hang onto them, hang onto them, you never know. At least what until the Ingredient Conversion System comes out in which will be in the near future but is deliberately not with the release of Update 30.3, we wouldn't have time to do it and it's not really mission critical."


    • Cordovan Comment: "We would love to expand Wardrobe and Bank space too, if we can do that you know we're gonna try."


    • Question: If you do not buy Fate of Gundabad will you still have the New Legendary Item Update?

      • Cordovan Answer: "Yes, yes. This is a System that is coming in with Update 30.3 and Update 31 in the future, we are doing additional LI work for Update 31 too but is not linked to your Purchase of Fate of Gundabad."



    • Comment: Someone finally got their account back and SSG "locked them for some reason".

      • Cordovan Answer: "We did, we did, we posted about it on the Forums, put it in the Launcher and a bunch of things like that but yes, we did in fact actually announce that and the reason that we announced that is because what it was we force reset the passwords for people who had not updated their password in 7 years, 8 years, something like that. So if you had not updated your password in that length of time as an Account Security based on best practices for people who know such things we did force resets on people who had not changed their passwords in like a decade because you shouldn't be using the same password for 10 years on any game account, email or anything ever."


      • Cordovan keeps talking about such for a little bit longer but has answered the question with the above answer. If you need help with resetting your password and account credentials you can contact Account Support for assistance.



      Cordovan final Comments & Answers - https://www.twitch.tv/videos/1164443668?t=00h55m37s to 00:58:22 - Cordovan ending the Stream:

      • Question: Any word on the Goodies from Previous Expansions for LIs will work in the System?

        • Cordovan Answer: "I will have to check with the Team to see if I can provide that info. The intention is that anything from previous Expansions can be addressed in the future with the upcoming Conversion Process."



    • Cordovan explains what he does at SSG for LOTRO, he is the LOTRO Community Manager.

    • Cordovan begins to explain Scenario's Casual Stroll and comes under attack.


    • Cordovan wraps up the Stream, thanks everyone for watching and to have fun.



    End of Stream.

      • Note: I have a follow up Post with this Thread for LOTRO Community Manager Cordovan due to conflicting information given by SSG here in 2021 on this topic and just to clear this up and get a definitive stance from the SSG LOTRO Team for the LOTRO Community.

    LOTRO Producer Raninia did comment on EU Servers to Host LOTRO back during the July 2021 Louey7 Interview that while it's not off the table there is an ongoing conversation as of back in July 2021 for seeing if EU Servers could happen and an area where EG7 might be of help due to being located in the EU.

    Link to Interview with time stamp of when Question & Answer is stated: https://youtu.be/1WktrKTeQCA?t=3055

    As far as I could find after searching for nearly 2 hours there is nothing stated about this by SSG since July 2021 with any other comments on EU Servers to Host LOTRO since July 2021 but I admit that the LOTRO Forums isn't always perfect when trying to find specific posts and based on how Cordovan stated his response it doesn't seem like LOTRO Producer Raninia and Cordovan had talked on such.

    If SSG could talk about this and provide a definitive answer on this topic would be appreciated.

    • Cordovan Comment: "Legendary Guild Recipes in the future? I can pass along that feedback."

      • Note: Not sure what this was in reference to and where the Feedback came from as Cordovan was bouncing between Facebook, Youtube and Twitch.


    That was in answer to my question. I wanted to know if there were going to, possibly, be any kind of recipes related to the new LI system for crafting guilds in the future. I probably could have worded it a bit better than I did. As it stands, at least for now, Guild crafting is being gutted. There doesn't seem to be anything in place to take the place of Legendary Item and Relic crafting. I'm kinda hoping that there will at least be some unique traceries we could craft on down the line. No time soon, I'm sure 'cause they kinda have their plate full.
    Very nice. Very evil.

    Crafting guilds need attention...

    Crafted LIs start at Level 60-65 (supreme tier) and is available with artisan of the crafting guild and it also has crafted relics.
    Each tier beyond that point also has crafted relics and third age, second age and first age LI recipes.

    What is going to happen with those recipes, the quests that reward the pages for crafted relics, quests that reward sealed/fused relics, quests that reward rusted dwarf tools/khuzdul tablets?
    What's going to happen with the various Celebrimbor and Elder King symbols? What's going to happen to the special cook drinks that give LI exp boosts?
    What's going to happen with the quests that offer LI titles in Echad Dunnan, Dolven-view, Galtrev, Hytbold, etc?

    Also, thank you for your hard work Harvain!

    Bringing back the old EC,OC to their original locations would be the preference. Ditching the Delving doors in those camps and removing the invisible wall barriers as well.


    Imo, Anything else concerning EC,OC will be waste of time.

    I hope they go back to their old positions. i dont think it will fix all of the problems the moors has right now, but if it can serve as a slightly safe spot away from the back doors and one-shots, then that will be more than they are doing right now. Currently they only server as a place for people to do a little bit of pve.

    Oh, also please disable back doors in combat like you did with the TA back door(only going from the keep to outside, for some reason).

    "Now I actually think most people aren't going to want to, for the most part you are just gonna to want to overwrite your Traceries with better Traceries that you get but if you have maybe a bunch of Alts for example you may have some benefit in unslotting your Traceries and doing it that way. So that's going to be an option for you however."

    Aren't they all bound to character though?

    This is just for the records!

    Server Populations: Based on your feedback, we’re taking measures to get everyone onto the more populous servers, so that finding parties is easier and festivals and live events are more fun. We are working on both improved server transfer tools and upgrades to our environments to improve playability. Also we will be moving our European servers back to the EU! More details on this coming soon!

    Then this one:

    Just to confirm, yes on Monday all the US AND EU servers will move to the same datacenter in New Jersey. Further move dates are still to be determined. Due to contractual obligations and logistics it was a safer call to do it this way and then re-evaluate once more data is gathered.





    But this one is neither forgotten not forgiven:

Based on this early information we believe that players will be best served by us focusing on improvements to the new datacenter, rather than moving the EU servers to Amsterdam.

    Since 2012, Dev Team can fully changed, you need more information about Orc Camp, Elf Camp, and TiR/LUG Rez positions OLD (before Update 8) placement?

    I don’t care where you move them or if you move them, so long as you let us keep our gv camp. Who wants roaming small group/solo action anyway when you can have all your fights at gv except for a couple of hours twice a week (if a freep leader shows up) for RvR?
