    Updated Mini guide/wiki page?

    What documentation outside the game has been updated with how the Mini works now?

    Lotro-wiki used to be my favorite source but it seems nobody did the work yet.

    The Lorebook presents the skills in an unreadable order.

    The guide in the sticky hasn't been updated either.

    Anything else?

    What's missing in Lotro-wiki? It seems to be covering all the changes with Isengard though I haven't check the numbers. It's not a "guide" though, you have to figure out on your own what's a good way to use the skills.

    Also there is a new players guide for minstrel if you click the guide tab on this site(there is a low level guide there for all the classes).

    Claudie-wans guide bottom of the page thread is still one of the best though it is pre-U6. I would link but it is annoying to do on phone.

    What information are you looking for on lotro-wiki that's not there? I did a big update after RoI and some little ones for the few things that changed with Update 6. I admit I haven't completely cross-linked all the interactions between traits and skills and legacies, but as far as I know the Minstrel information that's there is all current. If you disagree, I would like to know so I can fix it up.

    The famous Cloudie-wan thread is here: http://forums.lotro.com/showthread.p...se-of-Isengard. For an in-depth overview of how the minstrel works post-RoI, I don't think there's anything better out there.

    Re: Updated Mini guide/wiki page?

    Just to echo what's already been said here, that Lotro-wiki seems pretty current to me although there's the odd result (or lack of one) that pops up from time to time. It's still, to my mind, the best reference material out there. It isn't a guide though, it's an information resource; for the best guide to playing a Minstrel on the whole of the internets then Cloudie-Wan's guide (linked above) is the place to look.

    Hm, I must have been mislead when I checked the edit history on the wiki, it looked like no significant changes have been made since the code changes. Maybe I was reading it wrong.

    Thanks guys.

    Re: Updated Mini guide/wiki page?

    Ah yes, that's because the main Minstrel page does not actually have much on it directly, so the updates wouldn't show up there. Instead it's more of a summary that pulls from other pages, so the info only has to be entered once and not manually copied everywhere it's needed. If you look at the history for http://lotro-wiki.com/index.php/Minstrel_Skills for example, or at any of the individual skill or trait pages, you'll see the relevant edit history.

    I have a radical thought. Maybe I should just play the bloody thing?
