The Lord of the Rings Online has had a few events kick off this week, with the third attempt of its Combe Forester Event live this morning. Additionally, this week has seen the return of the Harvestmath festival in Middle-earth.

After first being shown off in the summer, with it originally supposed to launch in August, then September, the Combe Forester Event is now finally live in Lord of the Rings Online. The event takes place in the town of Combe, nearby Breetown, with players competing in various Foresting activities, whether it be chopping wood, skinning beasts and more. Players will earn Ribbons that can be used to unlock cosmetics, such as outfits, emotes and more. Additionally, the Forester Event also features a first look at the new Forester Tools as part of the upcoming crafting changes being made in Update 38 (i.e. Corsairs of Umbar). 

The Combe Forester Event runs from now through October 22nd.

Harvestmath, meanwhile, kicks off this week, bringing the beloved fall festival back to The Lord of the Rings Online. The annual fall festival takes place all over Middle-earth, from the Bree Festival Grounds, to The Party Tree, and so on, bringing fall fun, quests, deeds and more to accomplish from now through November 2nd. Returning favorite quests such as the Haunted Burrow make a return, as well as the quests from everyone's favorite drinking buddies, the Inn League and Ale Association.

The Harvestmath festival runs from now through November 2nd, with players able to earn rewards, including new ones including a Forest-spirit cosmetic set, and more.
