"As you think, so shall you become"

       Ok I just started playing LOTRO. I was intrigued with titles you get for reaching certain levels without dying.

    If you make it to level 20 you get the title "The Undying" god thats cool. 

   Now that said, I have played almost every class to level 10-14 and then I die trying to do the Blackwold quests in North Chetwood. I'm about sick of the game now because it doesnt seem like I can solo ALL the quests and I don't know which ones are soloable or not.

     Am I putting to much pressure on myself for something that has ZERO impact on my character besides looking like a bad ass? Im at the point of quitting what i thought would be the MMO to hold me over until WAR, but after repeating levels 1-12 four or five times, the game is making me sick.

   And before you say its because I suck, that is not the case. I just think im trying to do quests my level that are impossible to solo until I outlevel the mobs.

So yea any tips or links to leveling guides would help me in giving it one last chance.

Oh yea the classes I havent played yet are Minstrel, Burglar, and Champion. I rerolled the left over classes twice trying to get this title.

Dont put so much pressure on yourself and relax. It makes the game much more enjoyable. Forget the title theres other ones that are cooler. Like Enemy of the Dead, Bane of the Burrows or Enemy of the Night Etc. Plus there are other ppl that have undying so its not a big deal Dont let it be a game breaker.

My Guardian is Undying, and when you reach that goal it feels awesome ! and you feel like you can finally get on with the game ! You would be selling yourself very short quitting at such low level, just don't do that quest and move on to Saddle quests, then come back to that one quest you keep dieing on at level 20

 

There is no rules on how you do the chapter quests, yucan level to 50 and then do them all in a row if you wanted

I got so much
trouble on my mind
Refuse to lose.

Many many players have the undying title (including me) but people rarely display it ...

There is so many titles you can earn.... like Troll slayer , Shire Brewmaster , the clumsy ....etc

so just move on...there is so much more to see and do...

If you are that worried about it, do the few quests in archet or the dwarf starting area then head to the shire, you can get to level 10ish easily without killing but a couple mobs. 10-17 or 18 fairly easy finishing up shire quests then nab a couple of the first easy quests at the forsaken inn. In all honesty, the Undying title is neat your first time but after that it wears off. Alot out there have it and just dont have it showing simply because there are alot better titles out there.

Some people like this title and it is a goal...if it is a goal then go for it.  If you are doing it because you think people will think you are somehow a good  or better player then forget about it.  I know a lot of players who don't like players that are going for undying because when things get rough they run away during the fight to try and keep their chance at their precious title.

As for not know which quests are solo or not, how about looking at your quest log where it tells you whether they are solo, small fellowship, fellowship or raid.

And my suggestion, play Mini...they are a blast.

Why would you care about having the title "Undying" when you can have a title like"Pie Eating Champion Instead". A much cooler title IMO.

Game hopping since 2003.

Anyone would be bored after repeating the same content 5 times in such a small time period. Fellowship quests are usually indicated by a funny little icon in your quest log that looks like three bubbles but is suppose to be 3 heads (asin a group). You dont h
