of Middle-earth.



Two
New 3-Player Instances

• style="font-weight: bold;">Halls of Night:
  Level 40-65 - This story draws from the tales of Frodo, Sam, Merry and
  Pippin and their experiences within the Barrow-downs. Nightmare, an
  ancient Barrow-wight, has trapped your spirit within his mysterious
  dreamscape. To wake you must battle against the evil that haunts this
  dream realm, or risk sleeping forever!
• style="font-weight: bold;">Inn of the Forsaken:
  Level 20-65 - Tales have spread across Bree and the Lonelands of the
  noises that fill the Forsaken Inn when the moon is high. Travelers tell
  stories of a stolen ruby necklace hidden within a maze of twisted caves
  and protected by traps, riddles, guardians who never sleep, and a ship
  marooned deep underground.

Two
New Skirmishes

• style="font-weight: bold;">Attack at Dawn:
  Level 30-65 - Esteldín has long been a hidden training
  ground for Rangers and Free People against Angmar. It is a site the
  enemy has been desperate to discover and stamp out. While many scouts
  have been stopped, a lone goblin has learned the location of
  Esteldín and reported it to his masters. You must venture
  into the hills of Dol Dinen, and confront the attacking force before it
  can threaten the sanctity of Esteldín.
• style="font-weight: bold;">Icy Crevasse:
  Level 40-65 - With the aid of the Gauradan and Dourhands, Angmar is
  planning its next attack! By funneling icy winds through the great
  Forochel crevasse and down into Evendim, they plan to freeze the lake
  and march straight through Tinnudir to Annúminas. You must
  head to the frozen North and stop this sorcerer, before the chill winds
  freeze everything.
