LOTRO 'Riders of Rohan' expansion coming September 5
Lord of the Rings Online is getting its fourth major expansion, the Riders of Rohan, on September 5. Pre-purchasing the expansion nets you a few special perks and baubles.
The Lord of the Rings Online has announced release plans for its fourth major expansion. The Riders of Rohan expansion will hit on September 5, but pre-purchases get a few special goodies separated by tiers.
The basic edition includes a Roharrim mount, and an in-game title. Pre-purchasing it before the release date gets you a box of four level 20 statted cloaks to choose a bonus power, and a Rohirrim appearance once you hit level 20.
For you more committed LOTR nerds, the Heroic edition gives the mount, the title, a cosmetic chest piece, and the Quest Packs from Evendim, Moria, and Lothlorien. Plus, pre-purchasing gets you the level 20 cloaks, a 25% stat boost through level 75, and the Rohirrim appearance.
Finally, snagging the Legendary Edition will net you those extras, plus a 6th Inventory bag, a Crystal of Remembrance to add legacy status to a legendary weapon, and a War-Steed appearance for your mount. Pre-purchasing this version makes those four statted cloaks from the other versions level 75 instead, because that's how a Legendary rolls.
The main thrust of the new expansion is (appropriately enough) mounted combat, but it also adds a large new play area and raises the level cap to 85.
