The Lord of the Rings Online test server, Bullroarer, has been updated with a patch that is causing quite a stir in the community. The current patch is the first in a series that is part of the major class balance the team is planning to deploy in the coming months. Six classes have come under scrutiny and more than a few talents / abilities have come under the proverbial microscope. Tactical Relics are also on the docket for rebalancing.
General Class
- Any classes with Trait changes will have their Trait points respecced when this update goes Live. However, for the time being on Bullroarer, you will have to manually respec your trait trees in order to properly utilize the changes.
- Traits - Traits which offer bonuses to primary stats are more potent from levels 106 - 115.
- Physical Mastery from class traits has been increased.
- Tactical Mastery for class traits has been increased.
In this build, the following classes see significant changes applied for feedback:
- Champion
- Guardian
- Hunter
- Lore-Master
- Minstrel
- Warden
Other components available for testing include the Anniversary Event, Summer Festivities and other general improvements and alterations.
