pmac1328 Posted March 24, 2008 Share Posted March 24, 2008 hey bman, can u tell me anything about LOTRO pvp, or theres not much of pvp? i read somewhere its alot about quests mainly PvP in LOTRO is an isolated entity. there are currently 2 zones in which you can PvP. The way it works isnt complicated, but different from other PvP systems. It's not a system when you create a typical character and can go to the prescribed zones and beat on other characters. The people you would be fighting are what are referred to as "creeps" (player made mobs). Players can create mobs from the login screen that allow you to fight against the regular players (freeps) in the PvP zones. Much like a regular toon, creeps can be created as a specific class with specific abilities, which can be advanced over time. As a creep, within the PvP zones, you can quest, kill free people (normal PC toons), and take part in siege battles. There are also some number of keeps and hotpoints that creeps and freeps fight over. There're lots of specifics to it that would be too in depth to get into, but to summarize, it's an isolated PvP where you create an evil character that you can customize/advance as you achieve certain goals and kill regular players. It's interesting and can be fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spaceelf Posted March 25, 2008 Share Posted March 25, 2008 the point was I don't think you can now. For normal accounts its 300 for Founder accounts its 200. I'm on a founder account. And I'd really like to keep coming back to this game whether or not I'm done playing it everyday someday... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tiagosilva29 Posted March 25, 2008 Share Posted March 25, 2008 Bloody hell, I'd rather have money to eat, and some saved for my children. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spaceelf Posted March 25, 2008 Share Posted March 25, 2008 Heh heh. That's kinda the point in some ways though, I don't really want to be still paying for this three years down the road. Although I have no children, so there is that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BoDEAN Posted April 19, 2008 Share Posted April 19, 2008 oh well thats not a game for me then I guess, I need alot of PVP in a game :x The pvp in this game is horrible. Hours just shooting arrows at creeps, who run away after you hit them 3 times, then come back healed. Repeat. There you have the PVP mechanics.

+longgonebn Subscriber² Posted July 8, 2008 Subscriber² Share Posted July 8, 2008 As some know I started playing again. I never got into finding/buying clothing to make my character look cool, but now he looks really stupid. Where are the best places to get sweet clothing, and merchandise and stuff like that? Or do you really have to be a high level to do that, level 12 at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
