Lord Of The Rings Online Nerfs Delving Difficulty And Debuffs At Higher Levels

January 12, 2023 Marc Marasigan Comments

Standing Stone Games has tweaked Lord of the Rings Online’s infamous new Delving System to make it a bit easier for players to complete at higher difficulty slider settings.

The latest game update, Update 34.1.2, has nerfed several Delving debuffs including Sauron’s Defence I, which no longer auto-stacks, and Sauron’s Eye I-III, which have had their Dread spread reduced to roughly half of their original values. Dread has also been reduced overall in higher tier Delvings. Malices at high-level variant four Delvings have also been tuned down to make them less punishing and a bug that caused monster damages to multiply rather than add has also been fixed.

In addition to the Delving adjustments, Update 34.1.2 also removed reputation requirements for all housing decorations and new housing items have been added to the Delving, Swanfleet, and Cardolan vendors.
