So I finally upgraded my gaming rig and I've had this game for like 5 years but unable to play it. Are goons still on Landroval? Might try and join up this weekend. What's the hip class to play as these days? Was thinking a dwarf rune keeper dude. Are they fun?

I’m in as Hellhammer the dwarf champion. If I could get an invite sometime I’d appreciate it.

Corin Tucker's Stalker posted:I'm installing the game for the first time in like... ten years??? Geez, I am ancient. I just began playing last week after trying the game in like 2014 and only doing a few quests and then quitting. I started a champion but got kinda bored and then rolled a hunter and I'm having a blast. Running around plinking things with my bow is great fun. They also have run speed boosts and other things. She's up to level 23 now. If you're playing on Landroval give me your in-game name and I'll send you some money and any low level stuff I still have lying around.

I’m really enjoying the game. I felt I was leveling too fast so I bought an item from the store that turns off your XP and it’s been nice so far. I’m going back and doing deeds and quests I had to skip over because I was out leveling lots of areas. I’m at level 30 and joined a kinship since the Nazgun was dead. I only ever saw 1 person online at most so I was invited to another group and they’ve been nice so far. If you’re on Landroval send me your name and I’ll send some money and some level 10 leather or armor for you to get a head start. I’m Maaike the hunter ingame so goons feel free to hit me up.

So I’m level 38 and just got to the Trollshaws but I’m not a fan of the zone. Too claustrophobic. Is there a better area to go to to blast out the next 10 levels before heading to Moria? Misty Mountains? What’s a fun zone y’all would recommend with some good questing?

Yeah I’ve already done everything there is to do in Evendim, I liked that area. Even got to kindred with the rep there, my first one. Got a pretty horse out of it too. Looks like I’ll check out Agmar and Farochel

gyrf posted:Hah. You’re in for a surprise when you hit the Lothlorien epic quests though. Can you elaborate a bit? I got friendly with Lothlórien just to access the city but then jumped into Mirkwood as the rep rewards seem better. I’ve spent a day there and upgraded a lot of my jewelry already. Lothlórien seemed to have a bunch of junk repeatable quests that I figured I could skip.

I got the premium wallet last night when the servers came back up. Can’t beat that discount.

I don’t think we know what the hell is up with the servers. Saying it’s because of more people isn’t for sure. It could be the new wedding update broke a bunch of poo poo. The servers being up and down for 5 days tells me even SSG doesn’t really know what’s wrong either.

there are so many quests, overleveling entire zones is definitely a thing and you will have to skip a bunch of it, so try not to worry too much

I got my hunter to around level 95 before I burned out on the game, but it was tons of fun.

I might jump back in and try a beorling or something. I played for a few months in late 2020 and got a hunter to around level 100, they're fun and the fast travel is so good. Any other classes that are fun and got a rebalance or anything?

Now is the best because there’s so many new players being all “help I just created my first character and I clicked a thing and now I’m level 120 and no idea what to do, help”

I have a level 96 hunter on Landroval I've came back and started playing again. I quit after struggling through Rohan years ago and never got to see any of the Gondor stuff, which people say is pretty good. So enjoying the Dol Amroth area right now. IGN is Maaike so say hi if you're around. what level are you? I have a lvl 20 champ sitting around if you're in that range to quest with

the epic battles are pretty bad until you get to at least level 100+. the rewards aren't better than rep gear you can find and rewards from missions you can do a lot of at earlier levels

landscape is incredibly easy, you can do the first 20 levels or so completely naked and still mow through things edit: you can manually change the difficulty settings on a legendary server if you're a VIP, something I wish they would implement on all of them Demon Of The Fall fucked around with this message at 16:18 on May 12, 2022 |

you can level to cap without stepping foot in a dungeon or in a group of people, so yeah. very chill solo game for shutins and dads

would def recommend starting a hunter as the first character. the instant ports to basically anywhere on the map are awesome for first time players

# ¿ May 12, 2022 21:46 |

the game is basically f2p until level 95. quest packs, past expansions, just logging into a new character gets you like 3 expansions immediately in your account.

My beorning is super fun. You can solo anything in the game and can tank, dps, and heal easily. I don’t think their AoE heals can be beat by any other class.

Yeah I made a second chat window and put quest dialogue, combat details, and loot in there. Saves the main chat window for everything else.

Opiumden34 posted:I haven't played too much of this game yet, but I cannot decide on a class to level. Runekeeper and lore master look like I'd enjoy them, maybe beorning? Don’t think you can go wrong with any of those. It takes like 2 days to level to 20, try em all out and see how it goes and which you enjoy

Dick Trauma posted:I have dabbled with this game a few times since launch. I think what wore me down was inventory management (especially if like me you want to craft) and the character graphics, which I thought were sub-par even when the game was new. all content up to level 95 is free, if you haven't played in a few years, would definitely recommend trying it out again. I've been enjoying my last few months playing since coming back.

If you rolled on Arkenstone for less lag, you’re probably gonna deal with the opposite. Pretty sure it’s the largest server and often has lag issues
