This all looks good.

Only thing I didn’t like was reading about the elimination of Vocations to allow players to mix and match whatever Professions they want. I know that this will be greeted positively by many players but I think that choices should have consequences not all of which should be positive or synergistic.

I do hope the crafting revisions will result in more recipes – both “automatically” earned as a crafting tier is unlocked and learned from dropped recipes – through those tiers that have little to none of such recipes.

I’d also like to see all but the current level-cap crafting tier items to be craftable using nothing but Universal Ingredient Packs. Currently, UIPs become nearly worthless long before the final crafting tier. UIPs do cost LOTRO Points, after all, and anything created with them can only be used by characters of the creator’s account and sell for only 1 copper each which prevents UIPs from upsetting auction house values or devaluing gathered resources.
