The MMORPG The Lord of the Rings Online (LOtRO) has received a new DLC. In this, the dwarves enter a war, leading to a great battle on a staircase.
What kind of DLC is this? Even though the War of the Ring in The Lord of the Rings Online is over, the adventures in the fantasy world of Middle-earth continue. In the DLC “War of the Three Peaks,” Prince Durin, son of King Thorin Stonehelm, leads an army to Gundabad. There, he aims to reclaim the ancient homeland of his people.
A tremendous battle ensues. The orcs, who have settled in the fortress, naturally do not want to give it up without a fight.
The dwarves go to war in LotRO!
What special things await you in the new adventure? The dwarves must fight their way into the fortress. However, it is necessary to ascend a long staircase, which is defended by the orcs. At the end, the Gate of Winds is to be opened to deliver a crushing blow to the orc hosts.
In an enormous battle, you support the dwarves on this staircase in their fight. The instance “Shakalush, the Stair Battle” is designed for 6 players and offers difficulty levels between Tier 1 and 3. Tiers 4 to 6 are yet to follow.
These contents are also included: The DLC offers you even more content:
- The raid Amdân Dammul, the Bloody Threshold for 12 players
- New missions in the Elder Vale for one to two players of levels 20 to 130
- Updates to classes and items as well as quests and adventure areas
The upcoming new class Brawler is not included yet.
When does the DLC come out and how much does it cost? The new DLC “War of the Three Peaks” for the MMORPG The Lord of the Rings Online has been available since October 20.
The standard version costs 16.99 euros. A collector’s edition with mount and additional items is available for 49.99 euros. An ultimate fan bundle with even more items can be purchased for 83.99 euros from the store.
How is the DLC received? On reddit, the DLC is already being discussed. There is a prevailing opinion that it offers good content for the 16.99 euros and that the contents are quite enjoyable.
However, players consider the prices for the collector’s edition and the ultimate fan bundle to be excessive.
The MMORPG LotRO is continually expanded with new content. But fans will likely have to do without a classic version like in World of Warcraft.
