Win it before you can buy it! - Mount emotes

[Sapience]

All weekend long we'll be running lotteries for the brand new, unreleased, Mounted Rear Up emote. That's right, Mount Emotes are coming to the LOTRO Store! Enter the lotteries this weekend and you could win it for free, before your friends can buy it. You'll have a few weeks to show it off and brag before it hits the LOTRO Store.

Check back often as new lotteries will be starting randomly throughout the weekend and on Halloween!

Fantastic! I like the direction that the lotteries are going.

[TheFrank]

This is great!

[AdrianBLB]

Awesome! I wish there will be a video sneak preview!

[Sapience]

By the way, this works on all mounts including goats. If you win, make sure you post a screenshot of your favorite mount using the emote!

[Rinn_EU]

I really like the idea of emotes in the lottery, not just mount ones but others too! =) I noticed the /fishslap one was there earlier, hoping to win that!

[Pyres]

This is fantastic! I really want this emote! Other things I'd like to see in the lottery would be new hairstyles, new flashy mounts, and rare cosmetics.

[Reillan]

I like this, too, I just hope they'll have some way to earn them in-game at some point

Slightly disturbed by the chance to win the "mount rear emote".

Whenever I have been near a horse's rear, all that it has emoted has been rather disturbing.

Any news on /read or /jazzhands?

[Rouven]

This is awesome!

Participated in Lottery? Check.

Now all that's left is ... WIN

Good luck to everyone on Crickhollow!

Hey guys, just an update. There are THREE new emotes that will be available in the LOTRO Store in a couple of weeks, all three are mount emotes and all three will be available in the lotteries this weekend not just the Rear Up emote.

So keep an eye out and Post up screenshots of your mounts doing the emotes!

[Margy_EU]

Yeah, I won a mount and emote. Thanks.

Do you win an emote token that you can transfer to any of your toons? I hope so, otherwise it would really suck to win this on a crafting or vault alt that never gets played, and not win on my main.

[Margy_EU]

I couldn't transfer it. As I took it from the mail, it was in my emotes.

As with all lotteries, if you don't want to win it on a given character - don't enter them. I'm sure others would appreciate the improved odds.

I won the mount + emote combo too, and it's awesome! (And a good excuse to level up my captain some more so he can show it off) Thanks!

[BelamanthDE]

He, my captain also won it! I'll post a pic of a rearing Steed of Night on Monday, when I will be able to get online again.

[Laire]

I just entered and I'm crossing my fingers that at least one of my toons wins it :P Double-crossing for my top 5 toons xD

[Lenuleos]

"We can't fix bugs that have been in the games for years, we don't know how to properly secure a database, but - hey, we have lots of time to put emotes together to sell in the store!!!". WTG, Turbine. Foot meet gun.

Will this emotes also be optainable via an ingame option except the store? (a new fraktion/tokens to farm like in enedwaith) or are they store exclusive and this lottery is the only way to get them without spending Turbine Points?

I guess they will be lottery/store-exclusive only, so they can get a bit more cash from something that should be ingame already or atleast obtainable.

[Quavosh]

IMO the mount emotes are terrific and clever additions to the emote. Kudos to the Dev(s) who were involved in getting this ingame. I was pleasantly surprised and excited when I came across this news. I'm keeping my fingers crossed I might be fortunate to win one of the lottos for the emote as it will be awhile before I'll have the luxury of spending TP (I kind of wish it the mount emotes weren't store exclusive items and instead a faction or an event/quest reward but certainly understand it being such the case).

btw Good luck everyone with the lottos
