Lord Of The Rings Online Rolls Out Yondershire And Class Changes On The Test Server
Standing Stone Games has opened the Bullroarer test server once more to give Lord of the Rings Online players time to test out the new Yondershire zone ahead of its opening next month. Yondershire is a new zone to the north of the Shire where reclusive and troublemaker Hobbits have chosen to make their home.
“Since the time of Bullroarer Took, the Yondershire has squabbled with the more comfortable parts of the Shire. The upstart Lotho Sackville-Baggins aims to bully the local Hobbits, but they’re none too keen on his designs. Explore the Yondershire, and experience some more delightful Hobbit adventures, our first expansion of the Shire in years!”
Players will also be able to try out various balance changes to several classes, including the Beorning, Brawler, Champion, Guardian, and more importantly, the Minstrel. The healer support class has been given a much-needed overhaul to align his abilities with the current build and bring him back into the meta.
The Bullroarer build will also include a long list of fixes, tweaks, and adjustments and will polish up existing content in preparation for their permanent addition to the base game. The test server will be open until 11:00am PDT on Friday, March 25th.
You can check out the full beta release notes on the Lord of the Rings Online official forums.
