Lord Of The Rings Online Opens The Gates To Umbar On The Bullroarer Test Server

Standing Stone Games has rolled out the third and presumably final test phase for Lord of the Rings Online: Corsairs of Umbar on the Bullroarer test server. The latest beta build now includes the titular port city of Umbar and all its associated quests as the studio prepares for the expansion’s release next week.

The upcoming stat adjustments are also live for testing with buffs to main stat values and changes to stat allocations across the board. “Main Stats no longer give Outgoing Healing directly to classes which benefit offensively from Tactical Mastery,” Standing Stone explains. “Classes which gain no offensive benefit from Tactical Mastery may receive two points of Outgoing Healing instead of one point of Tactical Mastery.”

Corsairs of Umbar will officially be arriving on the live servers alongside Update 38 on November 8th. Standing Stone has confirmed that the crafting revamp will be included in the update, amid rumors that its been delayed.

You’ll find the latest Bullroarer release notes on the Lord of the Rings Online official forums.
