6-Month Update

Image
  6-Month Update Expansion:   The announcement for  Kingdoms of Harad  was given at the end of September and surprisingly did not have a FAQ with a list of details of when and how much the expansion will be offered in the Lotro Store. Scenario started his Casual Strolls through the expansion regions  each week in the beginning of October. The virtue cap was increased to level 100. Like before, many questioned why there was only a reforge at 151 and not 156. The item level of the legendary items would gradually increase from its initial 555 count as more content is released. When the initial instances released, you could reforge again at any time between 151 and 160 to increase to the new 560 cap. Just make sure you have enough gold for the upgrades.

Numerous players were ...

Crown of Hamat Quest Pack:   Crown of Hamat  is an unusual extension of the game. There are 10 missions, one 6-man instance, and "50 new quests and deeds" with no additional landscape or chapters in the Epic.

They are bi-daily, indicating that you can only do five missions one day and the other five missions the next. They award you three of the content pack's Hamâti Urgûl coins.

 Kinparty 2025 12:00pm -  Light the Sky:  As we waited for Everen to get connected, the group decided to get things started by shooting off some fireworks as the sun began to rise over the horizon. Some of the baubles from  Legacy of Morgoth  was placed to set the mood.  12:15pm - Scavenger Hunt:  Everen started things off with his traditional Scavenger Hunt. He would list three hints with about a minute pause between and the first person who would reach his character to the appropriate place would get a point. The longest trip to find Everen was the one that required traversing through Goblin-Town . The hints are listed down below: 1. My current seat has witnessed scenes of woe/The fellowship was broken down below The Horn of Gondor sounded, but in vain/When on the hillside Boromir was slain But though the ring has long since taken flight/Look for me now atop the Hill of Sight 2. Here stands a tower of arcane design,/Four welded pillars of the Dúnedai...
