(hope it's not a spam as I'm posting this to more threads) I added preview of Reveller's Gilded cosmetics on all races and genders, as dressing room preview from the Store is currently broken for these items.

Thank you very much for all the work you did to help us choosing.

Hi i always liked this thread, there is a lot of awesome cosmetics here!

I just wanted to show some of my ideas, hope you like it!

This is how i picture an old King of Arnor:



This one is a try for a citadel guard of gondor:



This one is like an a gondorian captain or knight:



A try of Elendil:



any tip or advice to improve the designs is welcome!

sorry for my english i come from Argentina.

Very nice sets ! They do really fit in their role. Could you tell us which armor parts were used ?

[Jadzi]

Given how this keeps coming up, methinks a little more specificity is called for. :P

[Jadzi]

Of course, there are other heavy boots that are very similar to the Shield-master's Boots. Tier 6 crafted heavy boots work nicely - for instance, [armour]High Officer's Boots[/armour].

Here I substituted them into the Gondorian Captain/Knight outfit, along with the Ost Dunhoth Rune-keeper helm (specifically, the [armour]Lesser Mark of the West Hat[/armour]).

awesome, I love this! probably the craziest outfit I've ever seen in LOTRO, and it still looks matching

[Evusik]

this outfit is a result of my attempt to create outfit using Rift armour (newly available in its cosmetic version from skirmish cosmetics vendor) and also a matching outfit for Reveller's Gilded steed. in both cases I wanted to avoid superficial combinations of pieces which obviously go together well, but everybody would use them the same way. I hope the result is not too "noisy" in the end...

[Sir_Richard]

I like the Rift armor

[gildhur]

One of my more recent minstrel pics. I particularly like that I didn't have to dye everything the same colour to end up with a coordinated outfit.

GAH! JEGGINGS! KILL IT WITH FIRE!!!

Just posting 2 screenies of 2 of my warden's most recent outfits.



Pieces for the Black outfit are a mix of warden/cappy/hunter/burg OD pieces, with Orthanc warden shoulders, and Turchol, clock from Thadur in Northcotten farm, and cappy boots from BG, all dyed black. White outfit is all burglar Od pieces dyed white, and cappy OD boots dyed white as well, though you can't seem them well.

still trying to figure out how to take screenies where the full character is in there without having to zoom out too far.

Oh my, that is lovely. +1

[khazatar]

This is my Lord of Ithilien look. Since he's from Ithilien he's also a Ranger. The real inspiration for the knight armor look was the amazing Tarchar. That helmet is in my opinion the best helmet in the entire game. It looks like a realistic helmet from the films. Especially the amazing wings on it. Just look flawlessly Numenorean, which I find odd since you get it from a mirkwood barter vendor.

Wow they both look so good! Want 'em

[Isilmacil]

This is one of my cappy's current outfits, which was inspired by Eldacarion's citidal armour look, but with a couple adjustments.



(this one I had to edit a bit to get the contrast to match what I took in game compared to how it turned out )



Anyway, besides whats been included in Eldacarion's outfit, my additions are as follows.

Shoulders: Hyrde-axle dyed white.
Helm: Cry of the West Helmet dyed white.
Boots: Cry of the West Boots dyed white.
Cloak: Defender's Cloak dyed white.

Also, I need a better monitor so that my screenshots turn out as good as they look when I take them in game

[Sir_Richard]

what's the easiest place to get a hood-and-mask piece like the above hunter? I'm starting a burg(from lvl 1), and I'm curious as to where I can get one.

[Lyzau]

what's the easiest place to get a hood-and-mask piece like the above hunter? I'm starting a burg(from lvl 1), and I'm curious as to where I can get one.

The easiest Hood is the Traveller's Hood from the Lotro Store, but it doesn't have a mask.
The easiest Hood & Mask is the Makeshift Ranger Mask, you get it with Marks from the Skirmish Cosmetics vendor, but it's super ugly and I don't recommend it.

The first really good mask comes from Northmen Medallions, you have to be level 65 or higher to grind those instances, and you need lots and lots of medallions.
The next good hood & mask comes from the Epic Story Volume III, book 5. You don't get there until at least level 70.

Another nice Hood, similar to the Traveller's Hood from the store is the Hood of Night, available for Marks at the Skirmsh vendor under "Halls of Night".

http://lotro.northshield.co.uk/ always was a great source - the store decos you can browse and try on in wardrobe. The best-looking hoodies are highish-level barters (65 and takes some grind as I recall) from Enedwaith, sady. They dye really well and they don't get too much clipping.

EDIT I'm such a slow typist =) ^what Lyzau said above^

[Lothirieth]

The easiest one you're going to be able to get it the Makeshift Ranger's Mask at the skirmish cosmetic vendor. There's also the burglar's Rift helm which you can check out. I think it's called the Thrillseeker's Helm. It's also available throught the same vendor.

Other hooded/mask pieces you're seeing are likely the burglar's helm from the Ost Dunoth raid which takes Medallions of the North Men which you won't be getting until you're 65. There's also a cosmetic reward from the epic quest line in Dunland, but again, you're going to have to be progressing through a lvl 65-75 area.

edit: meh for broken forums. Took forever to post this...

[Sir_Richard]

Thanks for the info!

[Marguerita]

Couple of questions. Firstly is there any way to get northmen tokens solo or with a very small group please? Secondly, does anyone know where this cloak comes from please?


*without hood please
Thanks,
-Esty

There is a solo quest, that you can take at Harndirion, asking to kill 100 undead in Ost Dunoth (that can be done outside the instance) giving each time 20 medallions of the North.
That quest is repeatable daily. And you can do it by killing some of the undead outside of the instance (one hour and lot of patience) you will have to repeat that each days to gain the 120 or 90 medallions needed.

There is of course the raid group, in which you can earn if you succeed at least 100+ medallions and also complete the daily quest in it. But even if this is a 65 instance, be prepared for some hard fight.

Good luck for which ever way you choose !

[Lothirieth]

You can also do the 3-man instances Stoneheight and North Cotton Farm for those medallions. My lvl 75 champ soloed t1 very easily. You'll also get some ixp and relics out of it.

As for the cloak, I can only think of Randirchol (drops from the mistress in DN) but it has a hood. I know I've seen the style elsewhere, but can't remember. :/

I'm looking for this as well. At this point though, I don't care if it has a hood or not. Please let me know if you end up finding a way to get it, outside of the instances.

[Evusik]

today's outfit is the last of the mount matching outfits series I have been doing during the Galloping Gala. I won Perlino Steed in a twitter giveaway, so I had to do something about it!

I know the hooded version as Burglar's Cover - drop from Dorozg The Beast-Tamer in Grand Stairs. outside of instances, I don't know and I'd be also grateful for information about the hoodless version
