Patch notes for Book 10: The City of the Kings
The patch notes for Book 10: The City of the Kings, the second free content update for Turbine Inc.’s The Lord of the Rings Online: Shadows of Angmar MMORPG, have been compiled and posted on the official LotRO forums.
Since the total number of patch notes is pretty big, we’ll just focus on a few parts of Book 10. What follows are the patch notes concerning the new area called Annúminas as well as some of the new content included in the update.
- New Area: Annúminas
- The main theme in the area is one of battle over the ruins of the past. The Rangers are far out-numbered by Angmar and its troops. The players are coming to help turn the tides in this struggle.
- The area around Annúminas is full of rolling green hills and fields, leading the edge of Lake Evendim (Nenuial). Upon the banks of Nenuial lies the ruined city of Annúminas, long abandoned by the Men of Arnor in the days of Amlaith, who moved the seat of power from Annúminas to Fornost.
- The city of Annúminas was one of the greatest achievements of the Men of Westernesse, built during the reign of Elendil. Great works of architecture spanned the city across multiple levels, though nearly three-thousand years of weather and abandonment have left much of it in ruin. Where once were beautiful gardens and tall spires now are pools of filth and decay and jagged ruined towers.
- New content
- Three new Annúminas instances
- New Ered Luin reputation Dungeon
- New Barrow Downs reputation Dungeon
- More integrated Events: Ettenmoors Events, Annúminas Events (three)
- More special game Events: Trestlebridge Invasion, Ost Guruth Invasion, Tale of the Shipwrecked Mariners
- New Ettenmoors quests
- New Annúminas quests
The complete set of patch notes, broken into manageable sections, can be found via the Read link below. Book 10: The City of the Kings is currently scheduled to become available on Tuesday, August 21.
