Thread: Steed of the Rune Keeper - WIN IT BEFORE YOU CAN BUY IT!

The Steed of Rune Keep is coming soon to the LOTRO Store, but you can win if before you can buy it! Lotteries will be running randomly all weekend long!

Don't forget to follow us on Twitter to keep an eye out of Flash Lotteries featuring the Steed of the Rune Keeper!

Here's a picture. I don't know where it came from.

Hope i win it !!!

Won one on my 48 RK . And the real beauty is it EXACTLY matches her outfit. Thanks, Turbine.

Don't have an RK that I actually play.. but I'd still like that horse on any of my characters. It's definitely another winner. That's 3/3 for the class mounts as far as I'm concerned. Now if only there was actually a way to get them in game. :/

It's already long over. These type of lotteries and flash lotteries only last for two or three hours and are usually run on the EST clock. If you're in Europe your best chances are to check in the evening and during the night.

There will be more this weekend.

Here's another on the Horse, a bit more light. Some very nice detailing.

Does anyone know what armor set the dwarf rk in the pic is wearing?

It's the DN set (lvl 60 raid in Moria). If you win coins, you can barter them for armor pieces in Caras Galadhon.

I won it on my hobbit burglar (thank you for lotteries!) and his next steps are (1) find a helpful elf to explain to him what are the funny letters on his new pony and (2) get a new outfit that goes with it so he doesn't look so silly. Once these are complete he's going to be using it forever, because it's a beautiful mount, for any class. It might well get me to play him more often. I especially love the books bundled onto the back.

Got a pile of coins from two 75 chars and a 65, so my "baby" lvl 38 RK thanks you - she will ride in style one day

Who would have ever thought "BUY IT" would mean "real money" (TP) and not just in-game gold

^^Anyone with half an inch of sense and no Agenda to spread? Please go back farming for lootbox keys

I entered a Lottery on Friday with all my characters (not the Steed of RK lottery).
That lottery doesn't end until Sunday night at 11 pm.

Since then I have checked off and on all weekend and have not seen ANY available lotteries for the Steed of the Runekeeper.
Why haven't I been able to enter the Steed Lotteries?

Is it because I already have entered an active Lottery and so I cannot get any others to open up to enter?
If so that's messed up!

same as axiss .. got into lottery on friday been checkin every day may different times for the runekeeper horse got into the one that was on friday for it by like 2 or 3 mins before it ended and then nothing since ..
where are the rest of the lotterys for this horse ?

It's awesome , won it on my rk, thanks turbine

I guess these loto's are over? have not seen one all day

Yeah... a bit disappointed that "all weekend long" meant one Friday lottery and then one RK only flash lotto on Saturday. I suppose it is possible that they are including tomorrow as part of the weekend because it's Martin Luther King Jr. Day in America...

Last RK horse lottery I have seen was early Saturday. I checked every two hours since then, but no other lotteries appeared. All weekend long was a bit short.

Here's one for you

Event timing never was Turbine's strong point.

No, that's obvious from the 'housing inspection' and the 'herd of steeds' recently.

Therefore, folks, please do not change your behavior for very slim chances.

It just strikes me as odd that a multi-million dollar company cannot get 'events' right, cannot be clear on what to buy where, advertises 'included' expansion parts which later turn out to be free and so on.

One would think that being 'strong' in those areas would result in more enthousiastic players/buyers?

Lotteries have won all weekend long as promised, but they have not all been long and they have not all been open to all levels. They were random, some restricted to the RK class exclusively, and some as long as a full day while others as short as an hour or two. Not to mention a coupe of 30 minute flash lotteries.

The first symbol is "L," and the second symbol is "K." Not sure what that is supposed to mean, but I've double-checked it. IF it was supposed to be "RK," it should look like this:

Yeah... what in the world was that all about and did anything come of it?

I will be watching for this all weekend...maybe I will win, since I have not won any lotteries since the 23rd of December!! Either my chances are very good, or very very bad. I would love to win this on my RK though!! Oh I guess they are over, sigh, I did not see one. Oh well maybe they will have them again this weekend !

Huh! They have just put up two Steed of the RK lottos - one flash, one normal. I guess they're doing more this weekend too!

ETA: yep more lottos this weekend

*taps microphone* I CAN'T READ THAT FROM SWEDEN, YOU HAVE TO TYPE LOUDER! *coughing fit*

Nice! Time to enter lottery =)

I remember when the Guardian Steed came out. My guardian characters were given extra entries in the lottery as it was fitting their class. Why not extra entries for Rune-Keepers to win their class steed?

OMFG!
I won this steed on my lvl33 guard!
Its awesome!

There were - last weekend. Hopefully there are more this weekend.

YAY!!

Bout time I was beginning to think no one was winning these things. The white goat was the only one I have seen so far in Riddermark. ((before you could buy it)) We are convinced Ridd get's left out of all the fun stuff - hoping to see anyone win the bloody thing on our server this weekend.

Again congrats Vellard!

I've won one on my Lvl 28 hunter, but it's not yet showing in the mounts tab? Perhaps I'm doing something wrong, or maybe I've the only invisible one?

for me it was an item in the bag that i had to click. so better check your inventory.
