Searching for rangers, part II

Well, talking about the rangers and their own problem in Eriador, there's a lot to say. This chain quest is not just great for all the stories inside, but also for the rewards that you can recieve, certainly they are not going to make you raid in any way, but at least they are going to help you seriously in dungeons and some raids. Besides, there's a small intro for the Stat Legacies, which are always good enough.

After you help and gather all the rangers in Trollshaws, well.. you actually dont gather all the rangers in Trollshaws, just one and he is the one that have to gather them all, you are sent to Lone lands, to Candaith, who for some reason have one of the most incoherent quests ever... you have to do it to see how bad idea he has, but anyway, it's fast and perfect for speed duties.


"So.. yes, I should let you go half-orc, seriously... he deserves  that..."
Maybe, while you were reading th books or maybe watching the movies, you always had the curiosity about the rangers and what were they doing while Aragorn was fighting in the war of the ring, were they scratching their belly? playing poker? doing some farming? Possibly most of them, but this chain quest allows you to see the dedicated few rangers that were actually fighting for the middle earth sake.

And yes, that's a hobbit stuck in the bush...
This quest is a bit nostalgic, you have to walk for zones that you have walked in before, heard (or read) about old important characters, end some unfinished matters and see what happened with other's life after all the fighst and drama and plots. Some of them makes you think about several things, like the one of the statues in North-downs, they were still adoring a statue of Amarthiel while is well know that Amarthiel ended as a good, noble hero after Narmeleth borke free from that evil spirit... well. maybe the statue is a icon of Amarthiel's spirit and not body... nevermind, I'll let them worship it without any question.


Amarthiel's statue... somehow...
Mordririth's statue... somehow...

Witch King's statue... again.. somehow...

Despite the other chains of the game that involves ridings and painful minutes traveling from one side toanother, this quests offers you, as a part of the reward (That you have to pick) a fast map to travel from side to side in seconds and free. Its a fast quest chain, and lets you see what its happening in the others zones of Eriador while the rangers are summoned and how their choices affects others, a good tle to hear while you have a great ale and you are sitting in front of a cozy fire.

And its necessary to continue with some of the plot in Enedwaith, which I highly recomend it a lot. I guess that it's better to complete the epics books at the moment rather than wait few levels to make everything more easier, somehow, the story gets a bit ackward and you may loose the grip of the drama... I had, in one moment, some sort of troubles with Aragorn in Rivendell, I had done already the quest about let them walk to Eregion and few months later I was, again talking with Aragorn in Rivendell... creppy enough...

Well, gotta go, good luck everyone! I'll see you later, have a great hunting as well :D
