LotRO Dev Diary: Quests and Deeds

Over at Game Trailers, they’ve got a new video up that explores more of the world of J.R.R. Tolkien‘s Middle Earth through the perspective of Jeffrey Steefel, one of the MMORPG’s executive producers. This time, they’ve got a video showing off the differences between quests and deeds in The Lord of the Rings Online.

As you’ll see in the video, Steefel explains that there are over 1,500 quests for people to get into through out their adventuring life, ranging from the mundane to the epic. With quests that can take anywhere from 10 minutes to “hours and hours,” that certainly means you’ll be doing a lot of things to advance your character.

Speaking of advancement, Steefel also explains the nature of deeds, whereby characters can gain additional skills and abilities by performing certain activities or specializing in certain things your class can do. For example, they said, lore masters can acquire a new skill that allows them to summon eagles through the repeated use of their other summoning skills.

In any case, you can learn more about skills and deeds by watching the video. Enjoy!
