Summary: Layanor, Chris and Cari talk about some Breaking News brought to us by a listener, and how awesome Layanor is as a possum. Listen now: What We Did This Week Cari- Quested in the Wold. Killed a War-band no goodies. Decided to go back to the epic quest. Layanor- Rebuilding is now very slow. All quests at kindred take 10 tokens to rebuild something. It will be awhile. Jumped back into the moors and had fun! Renown was low but the commendations were flowing like syrup on pancakes. I got two rings and new boots from the NPC and that brought my morale down to 15k but boosted my Physical Mastery to almost 20k Did some testing for later Did You Know™ Chris- Continuing to quest in the Wold. Busy week was busy. News Breaking News Argendauss reports that Fornost Wing: Earth is shut down as of today 11/20 with no advance warning from Turbine. People were exploiting the boss by resetting and returning into the dungeon. Players could get 600 marks, 150 medallions and 6 seals every two minutes, and a Seal of Empowerment about every five. Turbine Point Cards Update Gamestop pulled them all and they have been “pennied out” which means probably destroyed according to my source. The Bullroarer Test Server Will Be Up Again Next Week to Test Update 9 Some of our “instance questions” will be answered The XP Disabler will be in the build and has been revamped based on feedback in the Riders of Rohan Beta. Open Tapping will be spread throughout Middle-Earth and may have some new changes. New Samwise Gamgee Starter Pack in the LOTRO Market http://store.turbine.com/store/turbine/en_US/pd/ThemeID.28979900/productID.258048600 The Bay Steed & Riding Skill 4th Inventory Bag Currency Cap $9.99 Turbine says it’s a $25.00 value Applies to all characters on an account! The bag is an account unlock of the bag. That’s a pretty good deal since the bag unlock is 995 TP per character in the store. Steed of the Captain 1995 turbine points Skin color is wrong and will be fixed in update 9 The War-steed equipment appearance is different than the regular steed. Out of the store 11/29/12 Did You Know™ Two features I like to use in the game are not mapped out on the keyboard. You have to go into your key settings to set them up. The first one is the mount and dismount key. Open up your Key Mapping panel in Options and do a search for Dismount. You can set the key to anything. I never use the strafe keys. I strafe with my mouse. So I have changed the Q key to mount and remount. This option will put you on whatever horse you had last. Even your War-steed! The next did you know is a adjusted suggestion from Lindendir. Rohan introduced more quick slots for us to use. You can hit the arrow on your UI to switch between them. This is useful for Rune Keepers that want their healing and dps skills separated. It is also useful for guards to have when tanking or dpsing. Turbine did not set these to any hotkeys. Open the option panel again and do a search in key mappings for quickslot page. You have two keys here. Quickslot page up and Quickslot page down. I put these on my page up and page down keys because they were assigned to page up and page down on the chat window, and I never use that!
