Take your first gander at LOTRO’s High Elves

Over on the Bullroarer test server, Lord of the Rings Online has welcomed its latest race to the game. High Elves are now available for players to preview, although it remains to be seen if this race is cosmetically and functionally different from the current Elves to be justified as an inclusion.

LOTRO Players posted its initial impressions of the race, which will be able to roll every class except for Beornings and Burglars. High Elves look slightly different (particularly their hair) and have several useful racial skills, such as a revive and an out-of-combat run speed boost.

The premium race also boasts a new introduction, with the High Elves fighting as part of the First Alliance way back in the Second Age. An untimely wound by a Nazgul blade results in the player character being taken to Rivendell for a long period of recuperation, leading to the present era.

Check out the High Elf character creator after the break, and stay tuned for our LOTRO Legendarium column later today!
