24 weeks for a deed?! or when it starts to get too much

Finally getting the Savious of Mirkwood on Silirien (after defeating Lt for the first time and with Challenge), my desire for deed completion burns hot anew.

And this is when I realise that Ost Dunhoth deed will take at least 24 weeks to complete!!!
Seriously, what the fcuk? Almost half a year?
And this too only if you raid every week and successfully and your raid leader decides to kill the adds in different order each time.

Adding to that insane amounts of tokens required for the loot... Even if I decided not to focus on itemisation too much (I want my life back), I do see what Turbine is doing and I don't like it a bit.

Protector Of Thangulhad

I enjoyed the collection of dark poetry I came across here.
Very well written. A bit too harsh but good poetry is good poetry. That sorcerer is not getting it back..!

Forded Bruinen

"If you want him, come and claim him!"
Actually, I profoundly dislike Arwen, especially in the movies (she stole my Glorfie's horse and sacked him out!), she is a flat, empty shell with no character, no characteristic apart from an extreme Luthien-wannabe... but meh.

Silirien will not let Glorfindel get hurt. Only please don't tell Rhyaewald she still cares.

Stood at Amon Sul

Weathertop is on the other hand one of my favourite skirmishes.
Maybe its because the escort is - for once! - actually quite useful and skill-wise impressive? Maybe because of the general feel and pace of the fight?

Gondamon Siege Breaker

Not much to say, really. One of my least favourite skirmishes, probably because the encounters gave me the most pain here. One specifically - I always seem to get the gate dwarves (including Agi Gatebreaker) and so far I've only seen the goblin once...
I have my own theory about randomization seeds being generated once per character and reused which would lead some characters with unequal, polarised seeds...
All it took for me to get the goblin was to pair up with a friend who - on the contrary - was getting him all the time. He lead and goblin showed up. Try this for some of the more elusive encounters!

Tuckborough Troublemaker

If you live forever, you inevitably get bored and start doing really silly things: messing with poor little hobbits' minds, to name one.
Bad, bad elves.

Elves are wonderful. They provoke wonder.
Elves are marvelous. They cause marvels.
Elves are fantastic. They create fantasies.
Elves are glamorous. They project glamour.
Elves are enchanting. They weave enchantment.
Elves are terrific. They beget terror.
No one ever said elves are nice.

Terry Pratchett

Stopper of Thievery and Mischief

Yes, I've saved the red squirrels from the grey flood, I am that awesome.

PS. Please note the extremely rare to Middle Earth example of large, see-through glass windows.

Defender of the Priancing Pony

I guess every male of the race of man or hobbit, or any dwarv regardless their sex dream of the title and of the day when they'll acheve it, or respectively cherish the memory of the day they did.
I am an elf, and a female thus I can't understand what the commotion is all about...

Lothlorien Goat

I was very sceptic about the Wild Goat as a reward for becoming Saviour of Lothlorien - elves on goats? Over my dead body!
But apparently I am quite easyto convince with enough of aesthetic stimulation. Andthe goat's visual apperance is simply... amazing and totally elf worthy. And if I need to use a bloody goat, it's better be a pretty one and if it also matches my outfit, I am more than happy.
And it does! the goat is in great synergy with my all-time favourite Annuminas set.

In other words, I am in love yet again. And with a goat!!!

Rescuer of Nurz Gashu

I love Titles, I collect them with passion.
Thus I hope I will be able to overcome my legendary laziness and create a series of posts showcasing at least some of them.

Rescuer of Nurz Gashu shall be the first of the series, if it ever comes to be.
I must say I do enjoy the skirmish (mosly). While quite dull and boring while solo, you get to look at in from a completely new perspective if in duo or bigger fellowship! Only `but` is the annoying dialogue at the end... do I really have to stand there for a minute every time listening to it, is that neccessary? Well, at least I get a decent chance of finally getting Kindred with Eldgang on my Rune-tard.

Anyway, beware: Silirien the Flame of the Rift! or something. Burning hot, as usual.
