My son, who was born about 4 years after the game came out, wanted to play. I'm hooked again. Picture doesn't load but yes, LOTRO is the only MMO I've ever hit the level cap on. There's just something deep and infinite of Middle Earths atmosphere which I find intriguing, despite its flaws. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LadyCrimson Posted May 14, 2020 Share Posted May 14, 2020 ^ Loads fine for me at the moment. Can you play that MMO solo? I don't mind not being able to do group-dungeons or something, but is general gameplay soloable, like WoW was? “Things are as they are.

Hurlshort Posted May 14, 2020 Share Posted May 14, 2020 Just now, Keyrock said: Can you play an orc, or do you have to be a filthy do-gooder? They have something called Monster Play, where you can be a Warg, Orc, and some other baddies. I haven't played much with it, I think it is more of a PvP type option. https://lotro-wiki.com/index.php/Monster_Play_Character It's really more geared towards following in the footsteps of the Fellowship and cleaning up all their messes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's been improved a bit over time I love the game so I'd suggest that you stick with it.

Keyrock Posted May 15, 2020 Share Posted May 15, 2020 Who's got 2 scaly thumbs and a second destroyer? This guy. Behold my Split Rattlesnake: I had been saving the really hard to get components for tier 3 (highest AFAIK) engine and hull mods for this exact occasion. The engine mod increased thrust in all directions (forward, reverse, strafe, and turning speed) and the hull mod decreased mass (without decreasing HP) and drag, further increasing thrust. That took what was already an exceptionally fast and nimble destroyer right past ludicrous and straight to plaid. I also did basic shield mods on all the shields. No weapon mods yet since I don't have the components, but even stock this ship has massive firepower. Believe me when I tell you that I earned this ship. I got the money when I went into Zyarth Patriarchy space for some Xenon cleanup duty. The sector I was cleaning up was right next to a Xenon core sector and they sent a nearly infinite number of fighters and frigates at my Odysseus destroyer while I bombarded their stations. They damn near overwhelmed me with sheer numbers many times (they actually did a couple times but save scumming to the rescue). This is now the flagship of my fleet, and it's starting to look like a real fleet. My military stands at 2 destroyers, 4 frigates, 2 heavy fighters, and 3 scouts. I'm not quite ready to roll into a Xenon core sector and go to war, but I'm getting there. I can definitely defend my own space, that's for sure. 1 RFK Jr 2024 "Any organization created out of fear must create fear to survive." - Bill Hicks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LadyCrimson Posted May 19, 2020 Share Posted May 19, 2020 (edited) Would anyone like some trash loot? (I stuff it into "town stash" so other chrs can sell it. Nothing else to use up my 7000ish Eridium with) See this insect-body and weirdly petal-ed head creature? It normally flies and that's all you really see, in distant form. The petals are very closed (didn't even realize the head was like that). This one glitched in the ground and thanks to Photo Mode .... .....apparently, they have a face!

melkathi Posted May 26, 2020 Share Posted May 26, 2020 It should say "slain". Slayed is rapidly gaining popularity, but there are still enough of us around who know that to slay is an irregular verb.
