Vorn

I am the most casual of LOTRO players.  I have characters on a variety of servers.  Most are less then level 30 except the one captain I parked on the edge of Rohan about 7 years ago.

@Vehirt THAT WAS AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks!!!   Hope your stress abates!!   Oh for the tyranny of finitude that just doesn't allow time for all the gaming I want to do

@CheekyMonkey66 and @Vorn, I know you both voiced a desire to be a part of this. Do you guys want some help getting caught up to level 30? Or are you already there?

I did, but have been overcome by events.  Don't think I'm going to have the time to devote to this game at this moment; which is a pity as I've always wanted to do group content in it.  I have very little discretionary time for gaming right now and am putting the time I do have into SWTOR.  So many games, so little time

Thanks for remembering my interest, however!!!

My lowbie is only lvl 21.  So not sure I'll make the deadline due to limited play time.  No worries though!

Landroval!

Thx! I’d heard some rumor of starting over on a new server and I didn’t want to do that.

I think I have someone around there...I need to confirm what server we are on, please.

Another game I wish I could make time for...I have a character on the edge of Rohan but that's as far as I got.

I'm on Landroval.  I log in occasionally.  I have a captain on the border of Rohan who was a completionist character, well, as far a one could solo. I quit the game right after Rohan came out and never made it to the warhorses part and now I remember nothing about how to play him;  Also a new captain who I kinda sorta have re-figured out how to play somewhere around Bree and the Barrow Downs.

So I noticed these things during the Gree event called Crystal of the Nightmare Fury.  Funny I've never noticed them before now, or just skipped over them as something else I don't understand. @Rama and I were talking about them last night.  They aren't cheap to craft:

But, the benefit is +20% to damage/healing/endurance.  I just want to make sure whether or not I'm expected to be running these as I have not.  They last through death but not after leaving phase.  With my DC issues on Tuesdays (thank you crappy Navy wifi) probably not a good idea for me.  If we no longer need the Encryptions for the guild ships I'll start saving them for these or donate to those who might be able to craft more readily for their use (these things bind to legacy I think).  

@Katalaw

Awesome set of expectations!  Appreciate the thought you put into these.  Since I only have the one raiding character who is a melee DPS (he has 248 tank gear too, I just haven't made time to learn how to tank yet and MM isn't a place to learn, lol),  probably best to put me as an alternate.  I don't have discord so I'll PM you a number you can text me at.  Past 11pm Eastern will be tough me for me in any case as I have a 0700 meeting with the boss every Wednesday that requires a certain amount of coherence.

I will be online tonight.

The goal of this group is still Master Mode. 

@Hippy No way I can do 10K dps which is why I said I'm happy to back up for when you need another DPS for whenever you do veteran mode and need a fill-in.

So how about this! I have a busy next 3 weeks coming up with preparing for finals for college. 

 

Tank 1: @Tyrlo

Tank 2: @Aravail

Heals 1: @Sayuri

Heals 2: @Katalaw

DPS 1: @Orig Wrangler

DPS 2: @RaVem

DPS 3: @Passiflora

DPS 4: @BattingChart

 

 

I can fill as a back up just in case since I have to focus up a little more for school. 

LMK if you need a melee DPS backup for vet mode. I’m still looking to increase knowledge of the mechanics.

Just saw this.  Looks like you have your 8.  I can back up as melee DPS for HM/Vet only.  I don't have enough DPS or skill for NiM/MM.

For those of us who didn't know what the legendary server was, here's a link:

Sorry I missed Tuesday, was doing hurricane preps with the fleet and then moving to an alternative place to live for a week.  Didn't see anything on the calendar though.  Are we in hiatus?

Add me, please.

Northroyal Human level 80 Captain

Valmilandril High Elf level 21 Captain

Well rats, here I am available after a two week hiatus.  However, I would never try anything without fearless leader and the divine empress, for I know that where such pride and presumption walks, shame and loss follow close behind!!!

Best wishes on your re-creative or othewise activities!!!

I think i have a 16 and an 80.  I don't play the 80 because I've forgotten how   But will endeavor to lvl up the 16 (same class so eventually I'll remember how to play the other guy).

I could do Thursday.  I was happy to finally get past Torque for the first time.  I'm still having too much down time on my attacks from chasing bosses and not standing in fire and not attacking while not standing in fire, etc.  I haven't really learned the patterns yet to keep the melee damage up more.  The verbal cues were helpful and you guys gave me the easy jobs, for which I am grateful. 

I was a distant 4th in our DPS.  If you have to replace me to finish anything--that is entirely ok--all about the team in my book.  Gear is good (though I may switch some augments to drop alacrity since it's below the cool-kid threshold and add more crit), rotation is good, latency, button pushing and fight knowledge is lacking.  Really appreciate the patience and teaching though from all you vets.  I think that's how we deepen the bench of folks who want to try harder stuff.

I'm iffy for this week due to work.

Are we a go tonight?  I see lots of open slots.

Will update this weekend as I can’t edit the sheet on my phone.  Thanks!!
