This Changes LOTRO. - Hardcore Mariner On Max Difficulty

[@michalisbouas7249]

What a way to go! I hope you had fun, I enjoyed the video style with a bit of a storyline :) Currently playing level43 difficulty 7, self sufficient mariner (not HC) and having a blast! I like yellow early on but pick up the blue line heal regardless of the build I'm in. The stuns and CC in yellow along with fire breath early on means you can take on multiple enemies and get out of sticky situations. I switched at red around lvl25 and it's working well since then! Hopefully we see Loueyrendil reborn and make it to level20!

I dont usually watch live streams but I saw this live and it was the best, looking forward to the next. BTW loosing all that crafting was the worst :D

[@thermight3154]

Thanks for this. Ive been gone for yars but curious about the new class and difficulties and this was a nice fun intro

[@iiillliii9971]

What a tease :D I thought we'd finally find out what happened

[@jitterbug6665]

Such an entertaining stream haha, would be here for the journey continuing in the future

[@vviiddeeoo]

Hardcore mode is so weird. It seems like it would be against all that LOTRO with it being "about the journey not the destination" but for people that have already played LOTRO, it makes the journey so much more impactful. The only destination for Hardcore is a deleted character, so you are forced to focus ONLY on the journey

[@Ashock88]

I got to catch part of the stream. It was really fun!

[@rpgs6218]

Would be nice if lotro had a permadeath setting built in

[@Квазар-э7л]

Зачем?)

[@Beriathan]

Have you considered naming your cat "Louey's Bane" 🤣 Hopefully you will get it next time, you were doing pretty good!

[@Louey7]

Some already call her the balrog, so Louey's Bane seems quite fitting ;)

[@jisboncasckett5191]

Can't wait for part 2!

[@MrWhybull]

Nice story telling!

[@belwynne1386]

Sounds like fun! I may try this, too.

[@guardian7284]

Can't wait for the next stream!

[@briantremblay9157]

Hey man a little off topic, but I was wondering if you could maybe do a video on Motes, and the quest behind them?

[@knifesedge]

AFK deaths are the number one reason for me not getting the Undying title

[@BeauManners]

Plz continue this thank you good sir.

[@TheLotroNerd]

now they just need to add pvmp servers where you can go anywhere as a monster. like everyone wanted back in 2007!

[@keizhardy931]

Hello, does anyone have a link or video where I can follow a new Guardian guide? I have seen that the class has new changes because I read some guides for the class but apparently they are old, the skills in the skill trees are arranged differently, so I would like to play with a Guardian by myself and later in the end game participate in groups for dungeons. What's the best way to play solo and/or with a group? It can be the same build or it would be better to re-spect at some point?

[@davidpiening3827]

My only question about this journey is I know that there are some spots where the game forces you into deaths (defeats actually). Will you ignore these? Also, the fighting animation of the mariner looks really good.

[@Louey7]

This particular challenge is only to level 20. If not, I think those would probably be ignorable!

[@Harry-uq9qd]

logging out when you're afk should be allowed and is common sense! :)

[@dubya85]

because when i think of lord of the rings i think of mariners .... RIP

[@grimmgeezer7911]

You don't know the history then.

[@m__y-t-s]

"Eärendil was a mariner" -- JRR Tolkien, over 100 years ago.

[@dubya85]

@m__y-t-s yes I get that. The point still stands. Just your guys comprehension of what I'm saying is off. His world doesn't have any level of focus on mariner style fighters/armies. Like what we have from lotro - a swashbuckling pirate type character. That is not middle earth. That's more akin to rings of power lala land.

[@aboomination897]

You wanted that char to die, admit it!

[@Jedittee]

So youre doing Ironman challenge?

[@jisboncasckett5191]

Isn't ironman challenge no gear and dying is allowed?

[@vviiddeeoo]

I think it's a bit different with hardcore, but similar effect with tier 9 vs no gear. Louey did a naked challenge back with Dwarf warden a while ago, don't know where that went tbh

[@Jedittee]

@@jisboncasckett5191 Nope. Dying = delete, no use of action house and trade, no boosts etc

[@Grotmaggot]

IF YOU DIE YOU DELETE

[@OdeeOz]

Hardcore game play of only 11 Minutes? Not very detailed and complete for the character class leveling up along the way... 👎

[@Servidor_Publico_do_Ancapistao]

Dude used universal packs to craft items, where is the hardcore in that...?

[@Louey7]

The intro crafting quests gives 3 per vocation!
