Frodo's Friends

Dec 18

level 117

Our first night questing in Eryn Lasgalen. We only did Black Book quests and ended up in Laketown.

NO MEETING next week because the 25th is Christmas Day.

For January 1, 2022: BB 6.5. We will do some of the quests in the Dale/Laketown area to earn enough rep and currency to get level 345 gear.

See you guys next year!

January 1, 2022

(we did not meet up on Dec 25 Christmas Day)

We decided to some limited quests in Dale/Laketown - not for gear since most of us already have better gear - but to get enough rep to earn the RETURN TO DALE skill, and also to enjoy at least some of the content of this zone before moving on. We did the first Dale-Huntsman's quest (avancs) and BB 6.5, and then whatever quests popped up in our travels.

For next week: BB 6.6 and scourges/RT's of Eryn Lasgalen/Erebor.

PS Today is Tolkein's birthday!
