What some people call clunky, I find to be more rhythmic. Having almost predominantly played a captain throughout the lifetime of LOTRO, I've found a rhythm with that class's combat. The timing and queuing of skills contributes to that rhythm. LOTRO…
I'll only speak to a captain because I mainly play that class...
The captain is first and foremost the buffing class. So, your first job in a fellowship will be to buff the party and keep them buffed. However, if specced properly, we can dish …
Okay, based on some suggestions via this thread, some friends, and "professionals", I've revised my list. It's about 500 bucks more, so a bit beyond what I initially wanted to spend. However, I think I'm better "future-proofed", as much as one can b…
The third option is best out of the ones you listed. However, memory prices are droping rapidly at the moment so I recommend, if you have the money, go jump a step up and get the DDR2 1066 (PC2 8500). Your motherboard needs to be able to support it …
A lot of cases will work for you. There are a plethora of sites out there that you can use to browse for cases. Pick one with the design aesthetics you like because more than likely it will fit your purposes.
As to a monitor, I hear Samsung is a g…

Also besides Cleffs great advice you should be getting a Velociraptor drive since you can afford such an elaborate system. Why not go all out.
You have a good point.
My guiding principle with this system was be…
Thanks for the replies and the heads up about the incompatable case/power supply. I didn't even realize there was a way to check for that - or that it would be a problem.
So, if I go for a 1000 watt like Ekibiogami recommends, would a Corsair modu…

I briefly tried out LoTR with a buddy key someone emailed me and it seemed to me that there's really not much in the way of magic in LoTR. Was I just missing it? The closest class to a mage seemed to be more of a …
I see recruiting now and again in-game. At least on the Elendilmir server.
Yeah, you'll have much better luck over on the official forums at lotro.com.
Give these a try:
Allakazam
Official Lorebook
If you're having trouble finding a location, NPC, etc, the following sites are very useful:
MEHQ Dynamic Map
Arda Online Google Map
Hope that helps.
One more level and you'll have the option of creating a Monster character and engage in PvMP. However, it's not a perpetual feeling of unease and the chance of death, because it's in a segregated region, and your monster character isn't "your" chara…
I was on last night during prime time and man, it did feel empty. I didn't attribute it to WAR when I noticed, but that might be the reason. WAR has some very nice and innovative features - namely the public quest system, that have the potential for…

The only people who play LOTRO are hardcore fanboys anyways. That game doesnt have any endgame at all, just a huge grindfest and OK PvE. But all the PvE is designed to be played solo so why not just go play a GOOD R…
A goat? A freakin' goat? ROFL !
That's funny. That's really funny. Oh well, c'est la vie.
I have no problem with fast travel from Eregion to Lothlorien, and I suppose the mounted travel in the mines is alright considering it's not a horse/pony, …
Thanks for all the replies. If I do end up going with a single card solution, I might not bother with the Nvidia motherboard anyway. It's really designed for the higher-end market and with the 3x PCI-E slots, a multiple card set up. I'll end up look…
Indeed, the best way to go about learning the lore is to read the books. However, I have found in recommending people to read these books is that some really enjoy them, and some don't like them very much at all, mostly because the writing style isn…
