Lord Of The Rings Online Nerfs Fate Of Gundabad Instances And Fixes Yondershire Quests

Lord of the Rings Online tweaks Fate of Gundabad Instances and fixes up Yondershire quests in its latest patch.

The bulk of the patch is aimed at reducing the difficulty of Den of Pughlak with various nerfs to damage-over-time skills as well as reduced stat scaling and lower health, damage, and defense mitigation for sub-bosses. Several mob and boss skills have also been either removed, made less potent, or made dispellable.

The Assault on Dhurstrok and Adkhât-zahhar instances have also received a balance pass which includes reduced overall damage from bosses and a reduction in the potency of their skills. Some boss skills in the latter instance, however, will now be cast more frequently but will have their damage-over-time effects removed.

As for the new Hobbit zone, players will now find it easier to find sickle flies in the Gamwich Game Hunter quest and will be able to advance the Patrolling the Yondershire Wall quest even while they’re mounted. Yondershire locations have also been added to the Stable-masters Collection and missing map notes for the region have been fixed.

Over on the Anor progression server, the Ettenmoors have now been closed as PvMP shouldn’t be available below the current level cap. The max level of Legendary Items on the server has also been bumped up to 449.

The latest patch notes can be found on the Lord of the Rings Online official forums.
