I’m sure many of you by now have seen the image of the upcoming dragon in LOTRO with the Isengard expansion but I wanted to talk a bit about it. For me it looks amazing and is certainly what I think of when I picture dragons and brings back good memories of battles with Thorog. And based on what mechanics we’ve seen Turbine pulling out for the new instances, I’m very interested in what all Turbine has up their sleeves for what this nasty will bring out for us. I’m a D&D fan and have all sorts of fantasy influences, so I’m all about dragons and love to see them in games. Now granted, I wouldn’t want Turbine to break the lore (which would have issues with anyway), but if they can find ways to do it well I love it.
Now for some reason I can’t quite understand, it seems to me that many are jumping out of the woodwork to protest this dragon, but not Thorog or even when Draigoch was initially announced. However, Berephon has been amazing on the thread and has posted many times on this exact subject.

A while back, I mentioned a new horse that was using an appearance from an existing horse. When first added to the game back in November of last year, the “Prized Angmar’s Free People’s Steed” had an identical appearance to the Dunedain War Steed earned by completing several Eriador instance deeds. This was later confirmed to be a bug, and we were told that it would be fixed in a later patch.
With the announcement that Bullroarer has been patched with Update 3 content, I decided to see if this horse had been updated with a new appearance yet. I am happy to confirm that the horse’s look has been updated! I think it’s rather impressive looking and I can’t wait for the patch so my captains can enjoy their "new" horses.

Our very own Punggo asks:
How would you rank the lvl-50 dungeons on a scale of 1-10 according to difficulty? I have an alt nearing 50 who may have a good group to run dungeons with, unlike my first two toons I took past 50.

So over Monday and Tuesday I managed to do a few Skirmishes – even managing to fail one I have done successfully before :/. Finished off a few deeds with those skirmishes, and moved my way closer to a new level and a new look for my soldier.
The big thing for this week, though, is the Lord of the Rings Online Spring Festival. It started up yesterday and will likely run for about a month or so (no guarantees). Read beyond the break for more.

I was planning on writing this on Friday, but time sort of slipped away
. I did jump back into Lord of the Rings Online Friday and managed to get some things accomplished, I finished off an Armor set and quest line and completed some deeds.
Read on for more! (I break the posts up to keep the front page semi-clean and to keep more posts on it).

So this morning I once again jumped into Lord of the Rings Online and went to work on improving myself. This morning I didn’t do any skirmishes, but decided to try and get through some more quests in Angmar. I also have a screenshot of the swords made for me by a kinship member a while ago, I promised many months ago to put them up here and finally have one so

Angmar back in it’s hay day used to be the place where dungeon-crawling raiding end-gamers would spend most of their time during the “good old days” of Shadows of Angmar. This region offered many ways to spend your time running through quest, dungeons/raids, hunting for ore, wood, and beryl shards. This look at the Angmar Hub will consist of a brief overview of the dungeons and raids available to any would be adventure seeker.
