Lord of the Rings Online News - Update 2 Launches

Posted by Suzie Ford on Mar 21, 2011  | 35 comments in our forums

Turbine has announced that Update 2 for Lord of the Rings Online has been (or is being) deployed on all servers. The new update brings Volume III, Book 3: Echoes of the Dead online as well as a host of major updates to several important game features. There are new instance "clusters", new skirmishes, new content and the Spring Festival is live as well.

  • The Epic Story Continues with Volume III, Book 3: “Echoes of the Dead” -- At the conclusion of Volume III, Book 2: "Ride of the Grey Company," a great deal of intrigue surrounded the dwarf Nár: what compelled him to speak of the Paths of the Dead when he seems oblivious to everything else? The Rangers have decided to investigate the library at Zudrugund before continuing their journey south.
  • New Instance Clusters
    • Northcotton Farm – 3-player instance featuring two tiers of difficulty with an optional Challenge Mode quest
    • The Town of Stoneheight – 3-player instance featuring two tiers of difficulty with an optional Challenge Mode quest
    • The Lost Temple – 6-player instance featuring two tiers of difficulty with an optional Challenge Mode quest
    • Glacier Fortress – 6-player instance featuring 2 tiers of difficulty with an optional Challenge Mode quest
    • Ost Dunhoth – 12-player raid featuring 2 tiers of difficulty with an optional Challenge Mode quest6, two 6-mans and a 12-man raid
