    The Contrast ��

    What's with all the unexpected vitriol targeted at other users on this sub lately?

    Posted: 23 Jul 2020 02:50 PM PDT

    I get that the servers are down and people are upset, but I am seeing a lot of people angrily posting here on this sub that don't ever engage with this sub otherwise and it's kind of bizarre for a couple reasons in particular:

    1) These aren't the official forums so they are angrily screaming into an echo chamber

    2) This sub is one of the nicest gaming communities I've ever come across, but the past couple weeks have uncovered some extremely angry (and I assume, based on the insults) young Redditors here.

    I was essentially called a cuckold and a Red Pill male in the same comment thread by two allegedly different users. The insults don't bother me, but the sudden shift in tone and what is acceptable on this subreddit *does*.

    Am I missing something here besides adults overreacting and losing their minds over a FREE video game? Before we get into paid subscriptions, clearly SSG will offer some form of reimbursement to those folks based on their own prior behavior.

    Go outside! (But wear a facemask.)

    Your unrealistic dreams for LotRO

    Posted: 24 Jul 2020 12:01 AM PDT

    The title says it, what's a feature/storyline/whatever that would go through the roof of all your expectations for LotRO (or the new Amazon MMO).

    As a cyclist and a lover of Middle-Earth, I'd love it if the game engine could somehow be connected to Zwift/Bkool/Rouvy/likewise services. It's already happened as a mod for GTA, and I'd think that it'd be really cool if it was somehow possible in SSG's Middle Earth world. Imagine cycling up the switchbacks when heading out from Rivendell, imagine coasting through the vase lone lands, imagine doing an interval training up the Minas Tirith ramps (this one really gets me going), imagine doing a lovely tour through the Shire. There's a lot of possibilities! I'd even be okay with the graphic being a horse whose speed you control.

    I know this is particularly farfetched, but I want this to be a thread for the dreamers. What's your wild LotRO-ideas?

    Large Crafting Carry-on advice please.

    Posted: 24 Jul 2020 01:51 AM PDT

    The crafting carry-ons are at 35% off in the store this week so i decided to purchase to one for my explorer main.

    I was wondering, firstly, if it was worth getting a second carry-on as 50 slots, while a fair bit, doesn't quite cover all the gathered mats? Second, are there any non-obvious tips to using one? I use my main to supply my alt crafters, and so at present simply have the carry-on on auto-gather.

    Thanks all!

    What else are you playing?

    Posted: 23 Jul 2020 11:32 AM PDT

    What are y'all playing these days besides LOTRO, expecially during the down time?

    I've mostly been enjoying some tabletop gaming, either playing solitaire or reading up on RPGs I'll play later, such as: * Four Against Darkness * Treasure Awaits * Tiny Taverns

    An interesting thing I have noticed during this downtime is that I don't really want to play any other PC games šŸ¤·‍♂️ guess I'm just a LOTRO addict again. But I still enjoy the LOTR Adventure Card Game from time to time.

    What about y'all?

    Another question about Expansion quest and Expansions

    Posted: 23 Jul 2020 10:54 PM PDT

    I just don't understand the difference between 'expansion quest' and 'expansion'.

    For example, if ai buy 'Expansion quest: Helm's Deep' do I have everything that I need for that region? Do I get anything more if I buy 'Expansion: Helm's Deep'?

    What do you guys recommend?

    Gifting In The LOTRO Store?

    Posted: 23 Jul 2020 12:14 PM PDT

    Is there anyway to gift like say an expansion to a friend or maybe points? I have two very good friends that have fallen on bad times due to covid ;P. We are at the level for the next expansion and they don't have money to pay. Anyway I can get it for them?

    Twitter hacking, SSG issues, some small businesses I shop, and now Garmin. I doubt any of it is connected significantly it’s just surprising how much has been happening that’s internet-related.

    Level 16... what to spend gold on?

    Posted: 23 Jul 2020 02:35 PM PDT

    I've got a ton of gold and I'm not sure what to spend it on. The vendors sell grey junk, and the auction house doesn't have any stuff for sale at my level. Should I use /trade to try to buy crafted gear? (When chat works again.) I've got friends playing, but they have no interest in crafting it seems.

    Server for returning PVE Player

    Posted: 23 Jul 2020 08:43 AM PDT

    Is there a go to server with many established fellowships for PVE and with higher population? I'm returning after several years and want to have a real go at end game content this time. My other question if anyone can help is which tank class is preferred? Is guardian the only class than can main tank or can others like the captain and beorning do the job? I'd like to fill that role as that's my go to in MMOs.

    What should I play????

    Posted: 23 Jul 2020 07:01 AM PDT

    Alrighty, I'm sold on playing this game finished downloading, now is there a meta or something? Are there class/race combos that are blatantly better or are they balanced in general? And is there any classes that have a easier time finding raids?

    Advice for returning player

    Posted: 23 Jul 2020 05:25 AM PDT

    Hello all, hopefully you can help me. I used to play LOTRO a lot: from 2007 to 2013 (last thing I did was complete the first Rohan expansion) with maybe 6 players between lv 65-85. These were on the Snowbourne server. Obviously I've returned out of curiosity to have a look and this server is no more, instead Evernight seems the obvious choice.

    I understand there is a way of transferring characters, but currently it is unavailable?

    Effectively my questions are: 1. Is there anything else I can do to transfer my character, as I hope they aren't lost entirely? 2. What's going on with the game now? Is it still going strong? 3. Did People move to Evernight from Snowbourne?

    Thanks very much.

    Bombadil PvP Server Character Transfers

    Posted: 23 Jul 2020 07:17 AM PDT

    Have SSG given any updates on when we will be able to transfer our Bombadil server characters, I know that character transfers as a whole are currently unavailable, but I was just wondering if there has been any communication from SSG on the matter.
