Spring Festival Mount 2013

May 21, 2013 by Cosmetic Lotro

The Lissuin Steed comes in two versions: the regular festival horse and a set of war-steed cosmetics. The normal horse is available for 40 Spring Leaves at the Quartermaster on the Festival Grounds or at the Hengstacer Farm. The war-steed cosmetics are available at two different locations. Caparison and Leggings at the Quartermaster for 20 Spring Leaves each, and Halter and Saddle at the vendor in Bree near the Boar Fountain for 80/80/80 flowers each. You need to do the […]

Spirited

February 22, 2013 by Cosmetic Lotro

I was actually going to do a low-level outfit for my hobbit warden, until I saw this week’s sale being announced and noticed that the War-steed colour and equipment dyes are on sale! As you may know I find the base price of the war-steed cosmetic features way too high (especially since these prices are per character) and refuse to buy them at full price, so whenever they are on sale, I am interested. My lore-master’s steed got a colour […]

Tribal

February 7, 2013 by Cosmetic Lotro

So when Ketani mentioned on Twitter last week that there was a new store exclusive Steed available in the Lotro store with actual silver colored armor, I knew my champion berserker would finally have his own “class steed”. I never bought him the champion steed because it’s just not my taste. I was always hoping for something more heavily armored, and it finally arrived! Just like any other store exclusive steed (or reputation steed for that matter), it comes with […]

Golden opportunity

December 28, 2012 by Cosmetic Lotro

Like many of you who are serious Festival fans and participants, I finished my Tier 3 Yule Festival deed a few days ago. In a previous post I had stated my reservations about the huge grind required for the War-steed Appearance traits, and now that I have completed it I can recount my experience. I have completed the deed on 4 of my characters, a 5th is still in progress. The festival has been extended until January 3rd allowing for […]

Laurë

November 26, 2012 by Cosmetic Lotro

I have a golden steed! And her name is Laurë, which means golden light in Quenya. Thanks to the unannounced Lotro store sale this weekend, with 50% off steed color dye packs, I’ve been able to furnish my main character with all possible color options, and my alt characters with a few selected packs. Everyone is at a loss as to how long this sale is going to last, as it isn’t announced anywhere on the store page, and while […]

Riding south

November 1, 2012 by Cosmetic Lotro

My lore-master is from Rohan, so I changed her outfit to something more Rohirric (ok I admit, I change outfits about every three days). Because of the severe clipping and deformation issues with all the new crafted armour pieces I used an Isengard piece. Overall I still like the Isengard pieces better anyway. I really hope Turbine will fix the deformation bugs because with all those distortions, outfitting is not a lot of fun. Last week I finished the first […]

Melody of Battle

October 28, 2012 by Cosmetic Lotro

My minstrel reached level 85 last week and is pretty much set up in Rohan to do daylies, warbands and… well that’s all for now I suppose. I’m trying hard to find new looks but there isn’t a lot of variety in the new Rohan armour. On top of that, many of the crafted chest pieces have deformation issues. For example the medium crafted Eastemnet chest piece that she is wearing here makes her legs look like she’s suffering from […]

Tattered

October 22, 2012 by Cosmetic Lotro

Since my last post about my disappointment with the warsteed dye colour system, many players have expressed similar sentiments, especially those players who derive a lot of joy from the outfitting system in Lotro. There is one more thing I would like to address, before I leave this issue behind and just accept it for what it is. Let me make absolutely clear that I am not on a crusade against the Lotro store. I am not encouraging anyone to […]
