Welcome to Pineleaf’s Pictorial Primer to Skirmishing. In this series, we will look at each of the skirmishes you can run in The Lord of the Rings Online™. In this first volume, we will take a look at the skirmish that is set right in my own backyard: “Trouble in Tuckborough.”

Trouble in Tuckborough

In this series, we will look at each skirmish in turn, including its scenario, layout, mobs, bosses, and encounters. While I discuss the lieutenants you will be facing, I will leave a detailed analysis of them to a later volume.

Kaelin and LassieIn our last segment (for now) of the current soldier cosmetics, we take a look at the Man cosmetic items.  I would like to thank Kaelin of my Kinship, The Council of the Secret Fire for their help with the gathering of these photos.  It is very much appreciated! Remember, that each cosmetic costs 1 specific Campaign Mark and 77 Skirmish Marks and can be purchased from a Cosmetics vendor at any of the Skirmish Camps.

Thanks everyone who made these possible!  As we see new updates I’ll be sure to add them, but until then…. Happy Skrimishing!

Rift Cosmetic Clothing In this section, we take a look at the new Cosmetic Items for sale through the Cosmetic vendors that are located in the Bullroarer Skirmish camps.  In order to find them, set the “Filter by Profile” drop-down menu to read “Rift Cosmetic Clothing”.  These new items include a cloak, a top hat, a fisherman’s backpack and the Rift helms! All of these items are wearable by all classes (even the Rift Helms) but are not purchasable with the existing Campaign Marks.  It looks like with the new skirmish “Rift Rescue” we will also be obtaining a new Campaign, and along with it a new Campaign Mark, the Lefnuilan Campaign Mark.  This campaign currently only contains “Rift Rescue”, but I would assume that there will be future Skirmishes that will fall into this campaign released as Volume 3’s books are released.
