Finally!

I finally got to be part of a LT HM kill! \o/ It was great fun and I'm so glad I finally saw it. This is actually my first on level, end-game raid boss kill. I didn't start lotro until about 3 months before Mirkwood came out, so every other raid I've done has been overlevel.

A very kind friend has been helping me work through Dungeons in order to get my metadeed horse (only 2 more elves to go!). Given I'd gotten the LT deed done, I coerced him to go into Dungeons later that night and had more luck. Got my Ernil! *cheers*

All in all it was a very good night! :D

Jam session

I joined xhii from rollonehundred tonight for a small music session.

She introduced me to the Songbook plugin. (http://www.lotrointerface.com/downloads/info380-0.61.html) It's really awesome! No more /playlist, trying to look at it whilst your chat continues or alt tabbing. Everything is in a nice list for you. All you have to do is select the song you want and hit play.

This little music session kinda awoke my rp tendencies again. I love participating in it, but right now there's just far too much to do ingame! Hopefully I'll be able to squeeze some in here and there. :)

What's that smell?

Got a new title last night on my LM:

And it came with an epic housing item:

The devs really have taken this boar thing to the extreme! :P

Angmar pretty?

I wouldn't have ever thought it could be. :P Angmar is definitely my least favourite part of the game. It's downright ugly and has horrible ambient sound. I begrudgingly do the Fem quest line on all my alts as it's decent xp that's much needed at that level, but always leave as soon as I can. I did most of the quests on my first toon and that was enough for me!

I've had to go back to grind out Rangers of Esteldin rep though, but was surprised to catch a part of it that actually looked pleasing to the eye! Well, I think it's mainly the colours. :P At dawn near some orc camps, Angmar can actually look pretty. Nice surprise. :)

Epic BG run

So last night I joined a Watcher raid with people in kins our kin is allied with, then did a SG race (two groups racing to see who could finish first). It was quite late and someone joked about us having enough people to do BG...converted to a raid and got together 12 people. But funnily enough, we ended up going in. We started the raid at 4:30am my time! ^^ (click for full picture)

We nearly wiped on the guantlet due to someone having pc issues, but managed to stay alive in order to get people rezzed! So on to Durchest we went!

Some of us wanted to do HM, but our leader wisely made us do EM due to lack of radiance...and well because it was damned late. To our suprise we got him down!

Now you'd think we'd stop there right? Because it was like 5:30am. But some of us jokingly ran on...and we continued! \o/ The bits with the sorcerers went surprisingly well. The leader even commented we were doing better than his own kin often does! :P This bit of the raid is always stressful and boring for me. Babysitting a sorcerer!:

And then it was on to the Twins which we also got done in EM. We finally concluded the raid at 7am! :D :P


All in all, it's pretty awesome a pug cleared through the Twins in the wee hours in the morning! :D

Creepy...

Mass graves in Lotro?

Poor hobbits!

New look!

I finally joined The Pretty Robe Club! I managed to win the BG chest last night and get my LM a shiny new robe! Love it! Now to go stick it on my hunter or champ as well. :P Wardrobe ftw!
