The Fanatical Swordsman

Hello all, this is just a little update on what I’ve been doing and what is going on in the LOTRO community. I plan to post another installment of How to Harness the HUD soon, so keep an eye out for that.

There was a patch yesterday fixing some of the issues that have been plaguing us. The list of known issues that still need to be addressed after the patch is here.

I, for one, am happy with most of the fixes, however, the Halls of Night jewelry was Bind On Equip before, and now it will be Bind on Acquire. Small setback for my hunter, who still seems to be having issues with Nightmare.

I am happy with having the Rift skirmish back. I was planning to get the cosmetic hood for my burglar with one of my level 65 characters, but it was closed right after I decided to do that. I may post pictures of my adorable hobbit burglar after I am done.

I am not happy, however, about Inn of the Forsaken being closed. I really hope that they fix that soon, as that is a really fun way for me to make 3 gold coins on my warden. I also was getting ready to try it on my captain at 65. Apparently, there was a bug with people getting kicked out of the instance or something. Complainers…

I have decided what I want Ardaheru (my captain) to have for his armor.

Healing

1. Helm: Helegrod
2. Shoulders: Helegrod
3. Chest: OD alternate set
4. Arms: Helegrod
5. Legs: Leggings of the Long Lake (Lost Temple, I think)
6. Boots: Helegrod

Solo, DPS or Offtank

1. Helm: OD alternate set
2. Shoulders: OD alternate set
3. Chest: Hauberk of the Rugged Clansman (Odothuilan Campaign)
4. Arms: OD alternate
5. Legs: Leggings of the Long Lake
6. Boots: Helegrod

This is at least what I’m thinking. Not sure, things may change. I also may not run OD enough to get all of the Tokens required.
