Re-Rolling on Landroval

[grigorian]

Ari said there may be some interest in doing a once a week from the beginning adventure in LoTRO.

I am definatly up for it. When Ari, Gack, Kul, and I did the books it was a HUGE blast.

I would have no problem organizing this adventure if there is interest.

Count me in, Grig. LOTRO is worth going back to in my opinion.

Any regular night except Tuesday nights is good for me and I will make a concerted effort to be there!

Heck, I believe my Guardian has a cottage there that I can re-activate as a 'clubhouse' if we need one.

It would be great to build up a group starting from level 1. At first thought I'd be interested in playing a Loremaster or Warden (or any class that the group may need, really!)

[cirig]

YES! I am there. I didn't get to experience any of the fun stuff there, because you were all so much higher level than me at the time.

Ok cool! This is a go!

We have 4 and it would cool if we got at least 2 more. If more than 6 want to do this it is doable. It will require a little more coordination.

Please post roles preferred. LoTRO is pretty flexable and even an all ranger group can do an admorable job, so pick what you like to play more than worrying about balance.

As a recap there are the following classes with the standard classifications.

Minstrel - Prime Healer
Guardian - Prime Tank
Hunter - DPS/Travel
Champion - DPS/Second Tank
Captain - Second Tank/Second Healer/Buffer/Pet Class
Burgler - DPS / Crowd Control / Fellowship starter / Stealth
Loremaster - Crowd Control / DPS / Second Healer/Pet Class
Rune Keeper - Choice - Healer or DPS - Runekeeper can be both healers or DPS before the fight starts
Warden - Prime Tank / Lots of Styles - (IMHO Best Solo Class in the game)

My plan is to play a Guardian

I will also try and create a poll for the best Day and Time.


I am looking forward to this!!

I'm a go.

Some of you that have played a lot in Middle Earth may have a preference for the class you want to play this time through. My criteria for a class is mainly that I want it to round out the skills of the group. I'm going to read up on races and classes a bit. Feel free to claim a race for yourselves. I'm sure there are several that I would enjoy playing.

Weekend mornings are good for me...Saturday a bit better than Sunday. That's when it's easiest for me to get a dedicated stretch of time. However, any weekday evening is doable most of the time with a little planning.

[Morreion]

Cirig! Welcome aboard! And Echo too!

OK, to talk about classes a little more. Grig will be a Guardian, so tank is covered. For those of you not quite knowing what class to roll up, the following are (in my opinion) important classes to have in a powerful and diverse group:

Minstrel or Runekeeper (primary healer)
Loremaster or Burglar (crowd control)
Hunter (swift travel & group porting options)

It would be hard to have an effective ready-for-anything group without healing, CC and fast travel roles.

Been reading up a bit. I'd be glad to check in with a Hunter if no one else has designs on that class.

[ariesel]

Heyeeeee! <gives Cirig a big hug>

The hunter is a lot of fun, Echo. I think you'd like it. A few of the book quests would be major pains without a hunter.

I honestly don't know if I want to play something with which I am very familiar, or pick a class I've never played before. So, I'll look at classes again and see what strikes me fancy!

[Rakul]

Everyone stop looking at me... I'm still thinking!!!

;D

Hurry up, Burglar!
