Ok, well im a Lotr fan and im hoping on getting this game beta or when it comes out.

Anyway first question i would like to ask is, why does everyone seem to all be wearing the same orange and white cloak, if you watch the www.youtube.com videos you will notice that basically all the characters wear that same cloak, is it a special cloak or something

second question is, can you name all the professions you can be in crafting.

third question is, is there lots and lots of items in the game, and also can you make potions to do different things.

4th question, do you think they will ever do player housing in the game, cos i think it will make the RPG aspect a bit better

Thanks in advance :D

    I have joked about the Orange/White cloak throughout beta. There were not a whole lot of cloaks as quest rewards between levels 5-20, and the few you could get looked the same. I think they did this on purpose to make the preorder cloaks appear even cooler...



    Eh.. Go to warcry or somewhere for a breakdown on crafting. Too complicated to explain..



    There is a good bit of items.. It certainly isn't as dismal as Guild Wars, but probably not quite as varied as WoW. This will get better over time.



    I would assume player housing is going to be a high priority after the game is launched and running smoothly. But I could be wrong.







    Man.. it is almost no fun when people are seriously inquiring about the game rather than just being trolls/wowfanbois.. :)

    Here are some crafting guides to give you a good introduction to what crafting is all about:

    If you have more questions, just ask on the forums there.

     

    There are actually cloaks of many colors and designs as quest rewards.  I suspect the one you're seeing is a reward from Barliman Butterbur which has some decent stats for lower level characters.  You see it alot because alot of people got far enough in quests to get that cloak and they're all wearing it cause...it makes them semi-uber.

    There are tons of items in the game.  You cannot have enough space to hold your stuff and will have to sell off the extra.  Its a real treasure chest of goodies.

    Loremaster has recipes for a couple of healing potions that are also dropped from npcs and are available as quest rewards.  Definitely they're not a potions master.

    Yes, I think they will add player housing to the game.  How soon, it is hard to say, but yes.

    Lore Masters per se are NOT potion makers... that falls on the Scholar craft profession.... The way it works is that any class... ie lore master, hunter, champion etc can be any type of crafter....
