Lord of the Rings Online announces River Hobbits, Mariner class, and stat squish
What are folks thinking/feeling about the upcoming updates?
I hadn't been planning on rolling up any new characters anytime soon (have way too many alts already!), but the concept art for the River Hobbits sure does look cute...
But I'm more interested in the coming crafting changes, personally. Really hoping for the ability to customise and/or add crafting skills outside of the fixed current professions.
Also cautiously hopeful about the lag fixes seemingly coming this week?! Most of the time lag is a minor irritation rather than a huge issue for me, but around festival time? Especially right now, in Minas Tirith (Midsummer)? Ugh...
You're viewing a single thread.
The river hobbits will be a racial variant, not a whole new race like they did with dwarves, right? Either way, very excited.
I'd read it as a new race, just as with the stout-axe dwarves. But I could be wrong!
Oh that's exciting. Might mean a new introduction area too, then.
Haven't seen any mention of a new starter area (and given that we got Swanfleet/Cardolan in Before the Shadow as an alternative starter area, I think it's probably unlikely we'd get another new one so soon) - but you never know!
They ARE teasing a new River Hobbits-themed housing area, though.
Mostly, I'm hoping those hairstyles might be available to Shire Hobbits at some point. They look awesome!
