Guide to Ram Duath Quests

By Darkgolem



Ram Duath in Angmar is a place of turmoil.  Blogmal Orcs and
Angmarim travel with siege equipment east and south to the North Downs,
while the earth kin of Lehma-Koti attempt to survive living in a
crossroads between Angmar and friendlier lands to the south. 
Heroes of the free people can find plenty of opportunity to help these
amiable giants by dealing with the dark and evil orcish forces found to
the near Lehma-Koti.



All the quests in Lemha-Koti (except for Men of the Hills) lead toward
the orcs of the Blogmal tribe, or the evil Angmarim men or goblins
beyond.  Simply travel further down the road to the east and you
cannot avoid finding (in time) the locations you wish.  The
hardest quests here are Mistress of the Dark and the Far Reaching Hand,
both of which really need parties, and The Goblin's Treasure is
difficult too, unless you have friends.  The rest of the quests
are
somewhat solo-able to a prepared adventurer.

(Author's Note: The skull is

the east.  It isn't an easy place to get into, there are several
orcs
near the skull.  However, many of them are patrolling, and can be
picked off one by one.  This leaves you with three orcs total to

Morcheryn dwells in a cave on the east side of Ram Dúath, where
the other merrevail can also be found.



The Earth-kin scout has asked you to seek out and destroy the leader of
the Merrevail for the safety of his people. He also suggested you take
friends.



(Author's note: the entrance to
the instance is along the right wall
where the Morroval's are found.  Inside are bats (normal) and
morroval (not normal).  If your fellowship can handle 3 morrovals
at once, than you can handle this quest.)
