I’m sure many have already found these but I at least wanted to toss in a few comments as I go through them. I will be going through the armor sets and the Warden class here in the next day or so. And remember, these are just the first set of notes so get on [...]

Lore-mastery: Lore-master legendary items in Isengard

A while back, in fact quite a long while back as it was before update 2, I wrote a guide to lore-master LI legacies on the official forum. While the info in there still stacks up fairly well, with Isengard and various patches, there’s been enough changes to the LI system and to class mechanics Related posts:

Lore-mastery: How to do damage as a lore-master

PB — Sun, 28 Aug 2011 23:43:50 +0000

One of the biggest misconceptions about the lore-master class is that they are a ranged tactical nuking class, like a fire mage or archetypical magician in other fantasy games. However, while it’s true that lore-masters can put out fantastic burst tactical damage with some flashy skills, especially in AOE situations, due to the fact that Related posts:

DocHoliday — Tue, 10 May 2011 18:24:26 +0000

Just like the previous posts on Champions, there’s been a pretty hefty thread going on the Warden boards talking about what folks would like for the class. It actually is a pretty interesting read, and has already grown to over 7 pages. For me, I think the biggest issues with the class are: Lack of Related posts:
