Champions of the LOTRO universe

The Tolkien“>Lord of the Rings Online: Shadows of Angmar as we all know, is home to various classes like the Lore-master, the Minstrel, the Captain and so forth. It is needless to say that each class has its own merits and strengths. But if you are the type of player who is all about combat, we highly suggest that you pick the Champion class.

The class was clearly developed by Turbine Inc. with Tolkien’s immortal rhymes in mind: “His prowess was such that none in Gondor could stand against him in those weapon-sports in which he delighted, seeming rather a champion than a captain or king.” True enough, the Champion focuses on nothing else but destroying enemies.

While the Champions have the ability to use various weapon styles at any given time, this class often find itself in trouble when facing enemies alone. Only available to races Men, Elves and Dwarves, the Champions skills and traits are as follows:

Skills of the Champion

• Wild Attack: A damaging attack.  This increases fervor, allowing the use of other Champion skills.
• Flurry: An attack that increases the Champion’s attack speed and fervor.
• Blade Storm: A 360-degree area-of-effect attack.
• Champion’s Challenge: A taunting cry that forces the target to face and attack the Champion.
• Savage Strikes: A double attack.
• Blade Wall: A frontal area-of-effect attack.

Traits of the Champion

• Call of the Wild: The Champion’s Wild Attack generates additional threat and she gains a small amount of natural armour.
• At the Ready: The Champion’s base block rate is increased and she gains a small amount of natural armour.
