Lots of things happened.

Hello everyone! How are you all?

I´m sorry for dissappear for so long, real life stuff was keeping me away from the game and honestly, part of the expack as well. Many things has hapenned since the expack came out and I have a short time to say them all.

I got a bit disappointed with the fact that I was already in Isengard in level 71, not because it was quite fast, which it was, but with the fact that I was not capable with Varsalla to success on the quests in there at such low level; and it was worst when I read on the General and OOC Chat that everyone was having those troubles as well. i felt like when I was back on Moria at middle 55 and I couldnt go any further without standing against some goblins that, by any chance, were going to allow me to walk normally inside the Mines.

Dunland was a exciting zone to leveling, remind me a lot of Moria, one big map with differents zones and towns and several quests... yet, I got tired with the different layer option that got activated randomly. I know that it was for our own good, to avoid latency and stuff, yet, latency was something impossible to avoid, the expack was there after 5 months of announcent... and I died twice thanks to that... I dont know how exactly, but in two  layer changes, I appeared dead... But the quests on Dunland were more than great and each one was worthy of, sadly, somehow fast... And several weird deeds that I haven´t checked again... people was also complaining about this, but not so sure if it was necessary to complaing about or just look a bit better inside he hostile lands of the Dunlands.

Some of the places were even greater than usual...

Nice weather, lovely day, no mobs in the roads... almost no mobs at all due everyone killing
them for quests...
Dunland is a good zone to level up yet, it is not even hard as Moria was, maybe its because its located in a open space while Moria is all underneath a gigantic mountain... or maybe because Moria was jst simple more harder than Dunland. But one thing its for sure, only Dunland is what I liked fo far. The Gap of Rohan was quite disappointing and Isengard... well, I´m still lvl 73 and I haven´t seen too much of it, but I´m sure that all Orthanc is almost out of reach.

Galtrev, or how I call it: Lagtreg.
I wanted to come back and write several times, yet I had no related thing to Lotro and that could have not been fair with all the Lotro readers, I spent all my time watching series like Doctor Who, recommended by a good friend of mine, Castle, since the season just started, Modern family (same deal) and waiting badly 30 Rock while I was watching Community, which I found really funny and enjoyable. Also spent a lot of time playing Role, I think that I finally have a solid group to play at least twice per month which is what we need, basically.

 But well, I´m back in the game and I´m ready to face any challenge that it has reserved for me, so far, I have done something that may be wrong but it was necessary, I left my old Kin yesterday, The Order of the Silverflame to join Hispania, I have many friends in the real life that are inside that Kin and many of them are really close to me, so hearing them talking about how good the kin is and how great could it be that everyone were inside the same Kin had a effect on me. Hopefully, its gonna be a good choice.

I have to go, yet, the Order of a Silverflame deserves a post that I´ll be writting later, today or maybe tomorrow, depends on how badly is my day of work today, for the moments my friends, good luck! and it is good to see you again! :) Happy hunting!

Eating hobbitsesRWAR!

Ah, monster play... I know that I said that I was not gonna play monster play unless Varsalla was already top level again and I had, as well, the Warg... Well, I have the Warg and it's called Angaraloth yet Varsalla its not lvl 75... Its lvl 71 and she is at the doorstep of Isengard askign herself what did she did wrong to be in there at such low level.

I'm not so sure how it happened, but yes, I'm quite trapped with her in her leveling duties and I'm not looking forward to group right now. I have done all the quests in line and I decided only to stop in the Orc's caves in the gap of Rohan... because that's just insane at lvl 71, all the quests there are 74 - 75 and too many mobs for one simple Minstrel to handle them all.

So, I decided to kill my anger... doing PvP... and I got the Warg and the Apareance slot (I know, the most useless perhaps, but I wanted to have a different look) and started to slay humans, elves and hobbitses. So dwarf I haven't seen the Dwarves but soon they will fall too. Soon. When I was looking what to buy I did a small research about all the classes and definitily the Warg was the best for me. The spider looked wuite amazing but the looks were quite silly and the last look on the Warg its just awesome... 

Angaraloth Shadowhide...

The first impression was funny... Wargs can talk! At least with other Wargs, but they... have voices too! Ok, honestly, this part was quite scary and creepy but I decided to move on, got many quests and started my long road to from Unranked to Rank 1. The quests are simple, at least the solo quests, since its all gather and simple kills, nothing else, well, maybe a bit of scouting but that's just one time quest I think.

Angaraloth, the enemy of all thing that zise is no much higher than a hobbit.
Quest in this side of the game are somehow bloodier than in the normal, free people side. Search of rwood and roots its one thing, but "Bring me 10 hobbitses feet and 10 legs, 10 elven ears, 10 human legs and 10 dwarven beards" that just too amazing to be true. All the quest that requires a item that you have to find in the wilderness its barely not a pain to complete, but there are at least 20 quests that involves only killing (To gather things and to get some deads).

There are few things that I didn like about the Monster play, for example, the potions... I didnt make a excelent search but I got the potions that I saw as the best and they only rewards you with 500 morale top... and I have 8.3kMorale... and the free people could have more Morale and their potions rewards 1.5k appx. Another thing is the damage, I think that Varsalla is attacking better than this guy and I read on the OOC (The only channel that they use) cmplaining about this as well. I'm rank 3 now, and I have a extra 3% of attack, hopefully this works for something

RWAR HOBBITSES!!!!

Me, posing for the pic :3

RWARARGARGARGARGRGRAGRAGR!
The Warg is, so far, amazing. I got killed twice, one while I was attacking the hobbittses, some human burglar went and help them... Geez.. was horrible, I was already injured by the two Hobbits Hunters, but not badly, like a half of morale perhaps, maybe a bit more and this Burglar stunned me and killed.. it took him a bit, not so sure if he was hitting hard or not for a lvl 74 or maybe that armor boost that I got was a good choice, but the deadly part was the stun that I had locked on me. I just couldnt move and by the time I tried to run and escape, I got the coup the grace hit that killed me. :( 

that was the second death, the first one was at hand of a Rune-keeper that I helped to kill a hour before, I guess that he was looking for vengeance and he got his part. Same place, killing Hobbitses... Yes, as a Warg, its my DUTY! to kill hobbitses in their home, steal their food and eating their gardeners and farmers... I was attacking this time the other side and I got a small misunderstand with a overpowered hobbit that was standing at the door of his house. The rune-keeper arrived, did few spells, some of them were nasty and, meh, I was floating on the river as a puppy corpse... :(

Sniff, sniff... Nope, I'm lost...
The Freeps have the game in their hands, somehow, those two deads that I got was the usual strategy: Wait and let him get wounded... I applied it all the time... Well, the Runekeeper did not waited too much, he just flew into battle. just looking for vengeance... filthy elf... But why I say that? (The freep part with the game at their side) Well, I had a encounter with a hunter today earlier and he almost killed me twice, was great in fact since I escaped fast (Disappear + run skill) in the first time and the second I just went into some goblin gate and the hunter decided not to follow me. But that hunter... he was hitting quite amazing, all his hits were no less than 700 and the best two where of 2k with fire damage, he left me in the second try like in 500 morale or so. And then he killed the quest giver that I need it.

Had to wait for this guy like 15 mins or so >.<
Trolls will never learn...
So far I'm excited with PvMP, and Varsalla, until I gather a bit more of will, will remain in Isengard doorstep thinking about what she has done.

WEll, gotta go, good luck everyone! and see you tomorrow :3 Good hunting and eat a hobbit feet! they are tasty :3
