This discussion was started by Serithor. It compliments the developers on their fine work with housing and questions why players can't currently buy superior crafting stations for Kinship homes. Scenario dropped in to join the discussion and explain why crafting stations haven't been included with player housing and the complexity behind making that an active option. The developers are playing it safe and that is a good thing. Turbine has been effective in their implementation of new mechanics and that is one of their more endearing features. This is a great thread to ask similar questions and possibly get an answer with Scenario lurking about.
The disaster that is Tale of Heroism now
With balancing changes and class adjustments there are always a few who have a hard time adjusting or just want to scream nerf. This is one of those threads. However; this thread sheds a few points of notable mention and Zombie Columbus has even joied the discussion to shed some feedback and address a few issues regarding these new Minstrel changes. One thing is for sure. Strategy will now play a stronger part in grouping for the Minstrel. No more limitless heals. The terror.
This is a fun little thread that draws the attention of Jonathan "Berephon" Rudder. Turbine's self proclaimed residential lore monkey is always willing to answer a few lore related questions in this thread and has done so again this week. All you people with lore questions would do good to visit this thread. It is fun and informative and you can even get a few answers that you might be lacking as it related to the lore of Middle-earth.
With player housings launch came a few bugs. The amount of hoooks listed on the housing signs is incorrect, but Patience as posted the correct information for everyone on what houses contain how many external hooks here.
Has Minstrel DPS really been increased?
This thread questioned whether or not the Minstrel damage output had really been increased or not. From several Minstrels in this thread you can gather it has, but Zombie Columbus even dropped in to add some information to this discussion involving "War Speech" and a few other areas of interest. It is a pretty civil discussion and a good place to ask a few of your questions about Minstrel changes.
This is a thread I think everyone should be aware of to avoid a similar problem relating to a problem with graphical settings corrupting the game client.
This is a useful little thread started by Aklouie. It lists several bugs relating to the Book 11 update and is being updated as they are fixed or more discovered. Join the discussion and if you have a known bug not listed, feel free to add it.
This thread discusses some of the skills a Minstrel uses and how they might affect his ability while soloing. Zombie Columbus dropped in to share a few things about Minstrel instant cast skills and other instants that use induction times.
