Got an invitation last night by e-mail to do some fellowshippy stuff in LotRO with Doyce and Kate, so made preps to do so. Kate, alas, suffered from technical difficulties, but Doyce got on and he brought an added Champ of the same level to join our Cap/Champ combo.
And, yes, it was a lot of fun. We had to backtrack one mish in the epic storyline, but that wasn’t that big a deal, then we proceeded with it, and eventually it brought us to the “berserker Ranger you have to run ahead of to keep safe” mish, which we managed to pull off with only a minor misstep or two.
In the meantime, we were picking Doyce’s brains for gameplay advice, tips of this and that sort, and so forth. We had the voice chat enabled, which made that a lot easier.
We played around three hours or so, then called it a night. Many thanks to Doyce for the drive-along.
Tonight’s the last full night of the trial period. Still not sure what we’re doing, but I feel like we’ve given it a good try-out. We’ll see.
Tonight I would love to come along and play with you. My lowest level character is a level 18 elf minstrel — aka, a healer. I heard you guys were interested in having one of those around!
Well, there are times it would be handy …
I’m off playing my third level monk (karate class) until 8:30 or so, local, which pushes it a bit late for you, mebbe. I’ll mention it to Margie, though, and plan on hopping on after I get home.
I have my class tonight, too, so I won’t be home before 8ish, then still need to eat, shower, etc…
Of course, if you two decide to keep playing, then we don’t have to squeeze in a game tonight, we can play whenever we want!
LAN party at our house, February 2nd!
🙂
Well, heck, if you’re going to be out here then, can think of another game that needs some more playtime …
What server are you on? My main character (Solonor, natch) is a level 48 minstrel on Landroval.
Cool! We’re mostly on Landroval (but in the low teens). I need to get a character list in the side bar some time.
