this system makes me think this game is super casual... if u get some weapon on level50 and that will be the weapon for the rest of the game? the fck, or im misunderstanding ? or its like midgame content, leveling 50-90 or beyond with that legendary until u get something good on raid? im playinf last 3 days atm, was wondering if people even raid in this game.. or if i picked server where people actually do that kind of content, Evernight EU

Really helpful and insightful. An excellent overview. My only query is regarding Minstrel LI traceries. You went straight from lore master to rune keeper. Did I miss it somewhere else in the video? Also have you considered breaking the separate class overviews into separate bite size videos or pair them with trait point (blue, red and yellow line) videos for each class? I would welcome more videos on blue lines for different classes. I currently have beorning, minstrel, rune keeper and captain (hint, hint). :) Cracking video as always, thank you!

What a great guide, thank you! This will be extremely helpful for my kinmate who's been on a hiatus. Personally I am grateful for the advice on not feeling obligated to max out all traceries constantly. It's especially difficult to do so when you've got multiple toons with LIs. (Sidebar, I can't believe I ever complained about hitting the Ancient Script max ...) There was so much useful info here, I really appreciate all the effort you put into it.

@vviiddeeoo

59:17 this needs to be repeated so much no just for LIs. I see so many people say that only one build that works and because it works for that one thing then it works for everything. I build my yellow champion different in solo content and group content. Many things that are good and useful for group content are useless and wasted in solo content. Solo matters with speed and now actually success with landscape difficulty. Same with group, though traits or traceries you'd never pick for solo because you got no use out of them suddenly become autopick for group content. Sorry I'm just annoyed at all these best guides and people who parrot bad advice lol.

I came here, because I've been getting legendary xp from festivals and wondered what it was as a new player lol. My level 59 is still questing in the Trollshaws. So maybe I'll get to Moria by 70 or so. I'm doing the story in order the first time. But I need to learn the legendary item system it seems soon. I'm guessing I'll go with a one handed sword first, as I like to dual wield on the champion. Do you use your legendary weapon to max level? Or does it become a costume piece instead? Like in ffxiv our relics are just glam, cuz they don't keep up with new expansions and level cap increases, especially the first ones from ARR.

One thing I noticed (I haven't seen yet if you go back and mention it): you show dragging the LI onto the Flam icon to open the Legendary Item panel to manage and upgrade it. You can also Shift-Double-Click the item to do the same thing. I find that quicker and easier than dragging the icon onto a target, your mileage may vary.

This is great. A few clarifications please. 1) Whenever I drag my LI to the flame icon, it overwrites the LI I already have open, but you seem to have both open at the same time. How do I do that? 2) I saw in your rewards track that you were scrolling left and right without having to drag the teeny-tiny handle. I can't find a key/mouse combo to do that, can you let me know how? Keep up the great work. You are my GoTo source for LOTRO info and are great for the community. Keep it up!

For 1), you might be seeing that I have the tooltip open for multiple LIs (the h key anchors tooltips). I can still only have 1 LI open. 2) The little dots at the bottom, above the scroll wheel, you can click those to quickly navigate to certain levels!

@@Louey7 Thanks! I'm a little bit farther into the video now and you said that leveling the traceries was wasted as they reset when you replace them. I was under the impression that you were leveling the "slot", not the tracery. Timestamp 25 minute mark. Lotro-wiki: "Item Level increases applied to a Tracery slot remain on the slot even if the Tracery is unslotted. If another Tracery is then slotted in that same slot, it will inherit the upgraded Item Level. " (Repeated at 27:40ish)

Your best work to date! Somewhere we can point players to that will hopefully reduce their chances to get hit by it's many pitfalls. :) Would rather you didn't refer to the early 115 level first go at it, as arrival into a new range is the optimal time to switch over/invest. Fully maxed ILIs at 116 are still superior to new LIs maxed for some class/builds. Lucky you have another server to go on to show flaming a tracery as your main account fell into that initial over capping AS trap and back to the wall as far as managing it goes. You may want to follow up with the means available to manage AS once you discover it. And the mules required to cover the yearly cycle of a cap rise. It's a pity SSG didn't explain it to us 20 months ago ofc. But then they would be better served following your advice than internal mis-understandings of it all.
