If you’ve ever wondered which class is the most popular in Lord of the Rings Online, Squirle over at LOTRO Players has your back. By compiling a lot of observable data from the European server Evernight, Squirle managed to come up with a possible picture of how LOTRO’s playerbase is spread out.
Unsurprisingly, both Hunters and Champions are the most-played classes with a combined total of 45% of all characters when this data sample was taken. Rune-keepers and Lore-masters were seen out in significant numbers during the pre-endgame leveling process while Beornings, Burglars, and Wardens were vastly underrepresented.
The informal survey also looked at how many players were in each level bracket. What’s notable here is that a majority (64.4%) of players were still leveling to the cap while only 35.6% were at level 130.
“While there might be more conclusion to be drawn all these numbers are from one server over one week of LOTRO,” the author said. “[It] might be interesting to see how these change over time. Details such as how many of the 130s are in a raid would be needed to support claims that Guardians really bad at the moment.”
