Lord of the Rings Online tidies up Mordor with a post-launch patch

Expansion launches come with all sorts of messiness, and it’s up to developer to clean (or ignore) the issues that a great deal of its playerbase is experiencing. For Lord of the Rings Online, today’s small update attempts to tidy up Mordor by fixing some bothersome quest issues and activating The Burning Mountain resource dungeon.

High Elves, the new race for the expansion, are getting a lot of touch-ups as well. While their passive skills continue to remain missing, they can get the the undying titles, use quest-related mounts, and show up properly in the barber UI.

The team also apologizes for dominating lowbies in Bree-land: “The very high-level wights in the Barrow-downs were only supposed to appear at certain times. They’ve been reprimanded and should no longer constantly appear there, eager to feast on unwary, lower-level characters.”
