Posted by Keith Cross on Jun 02, 2009 | 0 comments in our forums

Turbine has posted a new dev journal revealing their plans to improve the crafting system in Lord of the Rings Online.

There are some significant enhancements in store for the crafting system in The Lord of the Rings Online: Mines of Moria Book 8, and we’d like to take time to provide the details for those who love to make stuff in the lands of Middle-earth!

Continuing right along with the goal of creating a better LOTRO experience for players both old and new, in Book 8 we are updating the levels of crafted armour, jewellery, shields, and weapons to improve the frequency at which equipment upgrades are available to users of crafted equipment. To provide a smoother transition for all, we are making special arrangements for all currently-equipped crafted gear. This change will affect most crafted equipment with level requirements up to 50, so we've included some fancy tables below to provide all the information you need.
