Soon the next big expansion for the MMORPG The Lord of the Rings Online will be released, introducing the land of Mordor. A new update is now preparing for this.
Update 20.1.2 serves as the foundation for the upcoming expansion, which currently has no name. This addon will lead the heroes’ journey to the land of Mordor, where the dark Sauron reigns. There, the Ring is to be destroyed in Mount Doom.
To prepare for all the innovations necessary for the addon, an update has now been released in The Lord of the Rings Online. This changes some things “behind the scenes”, for example, to ensure the increased level cap that comes with the addon. This also involves changes to the heroes’ stats that need to be considered.
The Cash Shop Returns
This should not affect the current stats, but should allow developers to make changes more easily later. However, the update brings some other changes as well. This includes the return of the cash shop to the game, so you can access the shop directly through the game again. Previously, it was only accessible through a website.
Improvements to the effect of the fireworks you received for the 10th anniversary of the MMORPG and a jubilee vendor in the town of Bree, who has some interesting items for sale, are also included in the update.
Mordor is Not the End
The Lord of the Rings Online expansion, which introduces the land of Mordor, essentially represents the end of the official story.
However, the developers want to expand the game beyond the book and will likely continue the story in their own way.
