A few questions

in Lord of the Rings Online
I have been looking over the game and am seriously thinking I'll be buying it by Wednesday, however I do still have a few questions I can't seem to find answered on the official site. Perhaps I've overlooked them there, but I figure it will be easier to just ask here.



1. What's the death penalty? XP loss, WoW-esque running to your body, equipment durability loss, something new?



2. How valuable is crafting in the game? Is it worth it and/or able to make high demand items?



3. Is there actually a healer class? I looked them over and didn't see any.



I think that's it. If I happen to come up with any further, I'll post them as well.

    I'm afraid to say this but everything you have asked about is out there in spades. I really couldn't even begin to touch upon how many threads there are in numerous forums that answer your questions in great depth.



    However, as a quick thing:



    You don't die per se but you "retreat" (which means the screen turns grayish silver and you have to hit the retreat button). You then spawn at a particular area and have your stats lowered for about 10 minutes or so.



    Some crafting is valuable and some not. Depends. And I haven't seen any high lvl crafting yet so I can't answer this.



    Since you don't have health but "morale" the healer class is the Minstrel. However the loremaster as well as the captain have the ability to raise morale in game.

    I figured it was out there somewhere, but after going over the main LoTRO site and clicking through everything on their "Codex" and "Player" info as well as game systems, there was nothing at all posted about it. Sorry to re-run the same old questions in yet another thread, but that is the sort of thing you would think they'd put up on their home site under the appropriate headers. Guess I'll be picking the game up then. Thanks.

    1.  Death Penalty



    Equipment durability loss



    2.  Crafting



    I don't know yet.  I am still an apprentice.   Right now they are still tweaking things dealing with the economy.  There will be a major update to many things regarding prices because things tend to be expensive in June sometime.



    3. Healer class



    Yes, there is one.  The healer class is the Minstrel.
