This is one of those games where you are always running short of *something*, usually space! For progression, and tournaments, you will want to be able to build your goods at roughly an even rate. I say roughly, because although the goods might be coming in at an even rate, you may be using one…
Farewell Dimzad
I mentioned something about life throwing a curveball, it ended up being far worse than that. Dimzad (my husband) was diagnosed with late stage cancer on the 20th December. He had shown no symptoms until then and was only 45. The hospital did their best but it was too advanced and he passed on the…
happy new year
well, this was going to be the year when I posted regularly (again… i know, i still believe that at some point in time i will) but life has thrown a curveball and I have no idea what the year will bring. So i can’t promise that or even aim for it. I will be…
#lotro barrows and festivals
I keep veering between racing* to 50 and a must do all the things, completionist playthrough on my main on Ithil (I switched servers in the end as that’s where my Kin ended up). I’m currently trying out a compromise of getting all quest / exploration deeds done and slayer deeds at least the first…
#lotro another lore-master

#lotro hunter mirkwood outfit
I wanted an outfit for my Mirkwood elf for when she visits Felegoth, I wanted her to fit in and look like she belonged. I’m not convinced I managed that but what I did manage was to basically recreate my Minstrel’s outfit… doh! anyway, I liked the shots so… Back: Cloak of the Wind-Singer (dyed…
#lotro Lore-master solo PVE build (U23)
NB. This is a compilation of the advice I have found in various places and the things that seem to work for me. I’ve not had any problems soloing (including resource instances and similar in Mordor / Grey Mountains) with this setup. Having said that, there is always room for tweaking and improvement – if…
