From a distance, Barad Tharsir in Barandalf seems peaceful enough and a weary traveller might be tempted to visit the pristine beach it inhabits. It seemed safe and quiet, but it wasn’t. Far from it. Tearose travelled to Evendim often and when she recently spoke to the Wardens of Annúminas in Tinnudir, they asked if [...]

virtues

So after a long, painful two week grind i finally achieved 10 in all my equipped virtues. This also means i will now be making the grind to get my radiance gear*… I also joined the Numenorian Guard, the sister kin to Sons of Numenor for those who want to take the next step into end game raiding.

So what does all this mean to you? well to put it plain and simple…. More group/end game content here at the blog. I will be heading into every end game instance from the deep dark of Moria, to the dark forest of Mirkwood… and beyond.

Our friend Michael, who sent us those great pictures from PAX Prime yesterday, had some time to stop and speak with Turbine staff. He gathered some great information and asked some questions to share with us. Thank you Michael!


PAXlogoPAX was very busy today. It was a sea of gamers – all excited about this years biggest titles. They had the full Lord of the Rings Online (LOTRO) team Patience, Sapience, producer, and more. They were all very kind and as open as they could be.

There were no new announcements. With F2P right around the corner, the whole team is focused on September 8th and 10th launches. Turbine is applying much of the lessons learned from the DDO launch to ensure a smooth transition to F2P. When pressed for specifics, they commented the four new servers vs. DDO’s two and said that additional servers were ready should the need arise. Furthermore, Turbine has been staffing-up hiring customer service reps as we as development team members. This is to support the expected influx of new players as well as to develop new content. In general, Turbine plans to monitor everything very closely.
