All
the Steeds!
One of the coolest things I have been
working on lately is my Stable of Horses.
LOOK. For your convenience, It has its own tab right at the
top of this blog.
There are links to pictures of all of
the steeds in lotro (or currently, at least 74 of the 89 steeds I have in my
stable… and counting, I'm working on it).
You will hear more about it next week
also because I am trying to make it an uber Horse site that people actually
want to visit! :D Friend Ravanel taught me how to make “Pages” on my blog so
that opened up lots of possibilities. And friend Tomeoric taught me some basic
html so that I could really sharpen its sleek look.
Give me your feedback and thoughts on it!
Deeds!
With less than 20 days to go and
Summer festival about to begin, I made a final press to get through as many
deeds as possible. “With a little help from my friends”, a la Beatles, I have
been chipping away at it.
Some of the things that got knocked
off lately…
Annuminas: Glinghant and Haudh Valandil, 75
Challenge mode. Only Ost Elendil Challenge remains.
Thank you Daweirdo, Morthin,
Caramelkr, Rileigh, and Mudflapthefirst!
Fornost: All four wings of it, 75 Challenge
mode! I went to Fornost as a young elf, but this was my first adventure back
since the revamp. Some of it was surprisingly difficult! I guess that is why it
is called “Challenge”.
Thank you Belegnost, Caylia, Nydhogg,
Baroon, and Amoniel!
This shot looks way too much like the
Moors… watching the horde preparing to roll in on top of us while we just hope
for the best.
With the final Fornost boss dead, I
can look out over the compound of the enemy knowing it was a job well done.
Dar
Narbugud: Getting
closer. There are 10 trolls in DN; and the slayer deed requires a killing of 60
trolls. Using a double-slayer-accelerator scroll, that is three full runs
through DN (yay math). That isn’t terrible, but with one run down, several deeds
were completed already. So basically, 40 trolls (or 20 trolls on double time)
stand between me and my Wild Mountain Goat and the title “Saviour of Lothlorien”.
Thank you Riders of Rohan and my friends!
This was one of the first times in a long time that I scheduled a raid (so it
was meaningful that people showed up, hehe). Yay Nimitar, Macmerkin, Nidw,
Macswife, Leirandir, Dandur, Vysion, Aradost, Ubermorgan, Morthin, and Minya!
Gate
Crasher: After
Nimitar and Dandur lead us through a steam-roll of DN, I arm twisted a few to
come kill the two troll guardians of Isengard (finally!). I am now Supergirl,
the Gatekeeper! Just as a note… don’t take these trolls lightly; I disregarded
their ability lay the smack down and got flattened once (my own fault for bad agro
management and running from healer and tank, lol).
Yay for the addition of Jastirria,
Minlor, Shorimar, and Taisholae!
Lost
Temple: Goodness, for
a level 65 instance, the last fight against Ferndur is a doozy. Do not underestimate it. We
won, but lost the Challenge mode. See the next picture? The Challenge mode =
when you are struck with a nasty disease (yellow eye), you stand near the dead
bodies on the ground, the disease explodes in a nasty disease cloud, and the
bodies revive and assist the boss. You cannot stay in the cloud or you die. The
Challenge is won when every single body is revived and killed. Unfortunately,
we didn’t dial back the DPS enough to not kill the boss before we could get all
the bodies up and moving. Next time.
Thank you Nimitar, Dirtdiver, Sailanarmo,
Nitefox, and Eldjarn!
Hidden
Deeds: The only
hidden deeds (other than the stupid Golden egg) that I had not done were the
Carnivore deed and the Emote deeds. Thank you Lalatheriel for all the meats and
Daweirdo for the final stew and emotings. I have finished 13 of 16 emotings.
Carnivore hidden deed: This deed was
modified within the past year with the removal of one of the meats from the
game, and the Stew of Kings has been substituted.
The 16 emote hidden deeds are: bored, beg,
rude, bow, cheer, salute,
kiss, scold, laugh, cower, angry, flirt, thank, mock, surrender, confused.
Rules: They do not count in instances, they cannot be incremented more than 5
times per day (some are less), they must be done TO you.
Solo! There is not much left that I can actually
solo at this point. I soloed Nala-Dum and Lumul-nar to finish the deeds, I made
progress on the Eldgang reputation (via Nurz skirmish and a Rift run), and am
plodding away at Riddles Beneath the Inn (up to 43 of 83 Riddles).
Saruman: It was not in my scope to
beat the Tower of Orthanc T2 before Rohan. That would have definitely cut into
my festival time. Lol.
Yay to
my Riders of Rohan team that lead us to victory against the Tower of Orthanc T1!
Yay team: Vysion, Meledie, Clide, Memendil, Hybridd, Macswife, Dandur,
Hahmburglar, Norinrad, Taradanag, and Hendred!
My friend Lothirieth posted something amazing… A win over Saruman T2; one of the very few in the world. Check her out!
I think
that is what it looks like when a Giant Eagle smiles…
From
Danania to Aegthil:
Taken back a bit, I had not replied to
it yet, and the next day, I discovered this post…
The title alone says so much. Go read what Aegthil says.
In the words of Sally Carrera, “I
create feelings in others that they themselves don’t understand, and blah,
blah, blah, blah…”
Welcome to my home, Aegthil. You do know
you have Competition, yes?
Here is the podcast in which
Mysterixox expresses her adoration that I am Awesome…
And here is Goldenstar showing her
love…
Are you ready to Bringiton??
