Just to clarify, since someone else was confused about this in this thread too, Finesse gives a flat rate reduction to your BPE, not relative.

So 10% Finesse penalty means your total BPE...

First off, I hope the OP does realize that not all mushrooms are hallucinogenic drugs...people do, you know, eat them and stuff...



Pipe weed=tobacco, and alcohol is alcohol. Those both get...

But why? Why do you invest time and effort into your LI if you dont want to? What is it that you DO want to be doing when you play, that you cant do without first maxing out your LI?

This is...

LOTRO's setup kind of discourages adding low-level content in new expansion zones. Since we're bound to a geographical map of Middle Earth, and the constraints of lore, you cant add in stuff for...

Well I'd hate to be dependent on the presence of a Burg, with the appropriate trait, to be a viable tank. Still, its good just to see that Turbine is adding Finesse debuffs, something we've needed...

Dont know if anyone's tested this in PvP or PvE, its not something you can do with a simple dummy parse though...but maybe someone knows the answer :)

Finesse reduces enemy BPE proportionally; if...

Thats a bit of an oversimplification. Reck doesnt turn you into nearly the glass cannon that people sometimes seem to think it does. Reck is just Warden, shaded towards offense. Det is Warden,...

Endgame, with crit-crafted armor and teal-level jewellery (no raid pieces), and a SA club and javelin, I'm able to easily survive T3 solos and duos, not even necessarily traited 5 blue and in...

I dont think the MMs between Isengard and the High Pass are navigable, except for the Caradhras Pass, which in the game is currently not passable, either.

Heading north from MM to Gundabad is a...

Well, assuming it makes your autoattack inducting, would this make all your other instant skills inducting? Heals, interrupts, etc.? Wouldnt that make it nigh-on impossible to fight more than 2-3...

Geez why not just put them on a vendor for 50s? If you cant be bothered to acquire an item through its intended mechanic, then dont ask Turbine to change the game just to suit you. If...

We only need new trait slots when they add new traits. Traits are equally useful at all levels, they dont scale down as you grow, requiring augmentation.

They are, however, a tradeoff mechanism -...

How do you know, though? You cant just wait to find out when they bail on you mid-fight. Do you ask every person you group with? Why should there have to be a litmus test for joining a group, why...

This idea is often brought up in various forms - sometimes for bonuses, sometimes for rep, etc. - and the counterargument is pretty cut-and-dry:

Heritage is a cosmetic feature. All it determines...

Powerleveling in LOTRO doesnt work like other games, where you just twink your gear and go kill stuff over-level for hours. LOTRO powerleveling involves getting multiple streams of XP working in...

RMAH is RMAH, even if you cant "cash in your chips". If Turbine wanted to make something available for cash, they'd add it to the Store, and cut out the middleman.

The system you're describing...

I dont think we're using the kind of long polearm spears that would have been designed to repel cavalry. Any spear long enough to deter a horse would be too long to use in close melee quarters for...

Checking back in on this thread...



Thanks for the addition :)

I want to add a couple thoughts to that, though - I had trouble writing a good prebuff macro, because latency varies so much...

What happens when the level cap goes up, you lose the title/mount till you re-grind all your alts? What happens if they add in additional classes?

Thats why they usually break down meta-deeds...

Its difficult, yes, but not impossible - moreso for some classes than others, admittedly. The only way to see +5 or higher on mobs in a quest is if you're taking quests that themselves are red to...

Yeah, what you've just described is called an "economy" :)

I've never, never had a problem finding a crafter to make me weapons or armor pretty much on-demand. I stopped working on my crafting...

The "L20 is when you get your first group content, so the titles only go that far" argument pretty much closes the case.

However, to add another dimension....if Turbine extended Deathless titles,...

Lorewise, yes, I can agree with the OP's sentiment.

Game-design-wise, though, all this would do is severely limit the pool of players available to run an instance. Most players probably wont take...

Do you really want your maintenance being done by a tech who had to drag his butt in to work at 4 in the morning on a Monday? :)

You know it would be the new guy, too...
