We’ve got a week to go before Lord of the Rings Online: Corsairs of Umbar launches — unless it gets hit with another delay, of course — and SSG is in the home stretch of testing this year’s big drop. The third beta for the expansion went up on the test server yesterday, and this time it was embiggened to include the titular city of Umbar and all of its quests.
The studio continues to work on its stat adjustment with the beta, buffing main stat values across the board and changing how stat allocation works in some instances: “Main Stats no longer give Outgoing Healing directly to classes which benefit offensively from Tactical Mastery. Classes which gain no offensive benefit from Tactical Mastery may receive two points of Outgoing Healing instead of one point of Tactical Mastery.”
And in case you heard a rumor that LOTRO’s crafting revamp was delayed, SSG confirmed that it is still on track for Update 38.
