The Lord of the Rings Online major update has been released

Before the Shadow, as they decided to call the 34th game update, contains many changes. But the main of them - is the admission of heroes to all activities in the game, regardless of the level, as well as modification of the pumping system, which has become more traditional. Tell us more about what else has changed in the MMORPG based on the works of John Tolkien.

Among the activities available to users in the add-on appeared "Raids" - they are opened by the item included with Before the Shadow. Also, the heroes can take part in the battle "Death of Karas Helebren", where the ruler of the Eregion Kelebrymbor is fighting against enemies of the elves, but does not notice the threat in his own fortress. For those who don't remember, in Tolkien's stories it was Kelebrymbor who forged the Rings of Power at the instigation of Sauron - and thereby did the forces of evil a favor. There are plenty of neutral opponents in the world of the game, such as the inhabitant of the Black Tomb, who was awakened by the magic of the Angmar Warlock King. According to the developers, they came up with activities for characters of all levels.

Also, the pumping system has changed. When you create a character you can now skip training, automatic attacks stopped advancing skills, and the class traits are now developed for the appropriate points. Their maximum number is 98 at level 140. This also led to the refinement of all classes, but especially serious changes befall beornings, thieves and minstrels. Added and small, but very useful innovations. In the quest tracker, for example, you can track ten quests at once, rather than five as before.
