Thread: Surviving the night

Here are the Rulers of the dead deeds in the lorebook:

http://lorebook.lotro.com/wiki/Speci...c=&minl=&maxl=

"Objective: Find Defeat twenty Lieutenants in one Skirmish session"

The requirement is to kill 20 lieutenants in a single session, for small fellow, fellow, raid.
I know I've done that, but the deed remains invisible and untriggered.

I think these deeds are bugged and incompletable at this time.
That means you can't complete "surviving the night" deed either.

Also, there are no deeds beyond "bane of the dead" or "bane of the lieutenant" in the lorebook (tier 4).
On Elendemir a bunch of us are on bane for lieutenants, but further behind on the deed for killing mobs.

AHA! At least that is a breakthrough. The catch is, is it *possible* to defeat 20 LT's in one skirmish setting. The first LT doesn't start until 5 minutes, and even if you killed them all, i'm not convinced 20 will SPAWN in an hour.

Does the deed accellerator work? That would speed it up if it did...but boo. Also boo for it working at 57 for deeds (if that works). I don't mind *insane* deeds (and this one is -- well -- insane)...

Correct me if I'm wrong; but I believe anyone who is interested in these deeds is probably a completionist and does not believe nor agree with deed accelerators...

We killed 37 lieutenants in a 6 man level 65 survival skirmish last night.
Didn't open the deed for rulers of the dead.
Think it's just bugged.
Will try to kill more than 20 in both 3 man and 12 next, shouldn't be a problem

Finished Bane of the Dark Lord (raid), which requires you to kill 1000 lieutenants.
There's no tier beyond this. Need to kill 9500 more mobs to finish Bane of the Dead (raid).
Further behind in Small Fellow & Fellow deeds. Two others are about where I am.

I filed a bug detailing how Surviving the Night is not completable, because rulers of the dead is not completable.

Gratz!

I'm chasing the 'Defeating the Dead - Small Fellowship' in order to finish the meta Defeating the Dead, then I will start working on slayers....

I'm just on tier 2 on all sizes. Just about even on everything....

So is the Surviving the Night not inclusive of the 4 tiers of slayers?

Yay! Rulers of the Dead is fixed. They didn't express this in any notes but killing 20 LTs in one run is now up and running.


It's staged like Defeating the Dead with 5, 10, then 20 LTs.....

I just finished Rulers of the dead deeds for 3,6 and 12 man...

which gave me the surviving the night meta deed complete.

Still have bane of dark lord 3/6/12 to do, which requires you to kill 10,000 mobs.
Not really trying to get it done, just too far to go to bother. 3 man in particular would take ages

What lvl do you unlock the survivel: barrow downs?

Level 45.

Wish the slayer deeds had rewards that made more sense....

80 SMs for completing tier3 raid slayer tier? It's like a slap!

Does anyone know any good trick how to kill 250 mobs in Small fellowship run? if we kill only LTs we manage to kill about 30-35 of them. If we kill only regular mobs we manage to get about 150 until the end. 250 seems so impossible in 3men group.

You need to kill as many as possible as early as possible while they have lower morale. Run very DPS heavy, taking Herbalists as soldiers ideally. Really push it for the first 20mins. You'll need either a WDN or a CPT to kite later on.

As a MNS I suggest you go in red traits with a WDN and a CMP if you can. DPS as much as you can, dropping to heals only when you get a nasty selection of Lts or too much damage. A WDN with 5 blue, capstone and the ability to spam Conviction on the run makes life about 1000 times easier. A CPT can also do it, but in my experience have to be *really* good to keep aggro from a top-rank Herbalist or a CMP doing as much AoE as you'll want them to do.

Lts count for several kills towards the 250 btw, I think they count as 5.

wow, didnt knew that.

time to get more bds runs goin ... kinda lack of grps latley (at least on snowy)

Anyone completed this in last months?

Question: the lvl70 extra deed, how does it work now with different lvl cap? You have to do it precisely at 70?
