UPDATE: The Test Server with Elf Avatar Update did release on the Test Server 2 hours after this video release as predicted!!! We have passed 200 subscribers already in under just 2 weeks, it's incredible! Thank you all so much for the support!
They desperately need to update the UI scaling, so many friends rolled on the legendary servers just to quit because tyhey couldnt read their inventory. It would be so huge for the game.
Elrond - also you are now my go-to for this game, as my girlfriend and I have just started playing for the first time and every time I go searching for info you've been the one who has something addressing the topics. So, good job buddy! All the best.
Hopefully it is both of them, but they also didn't update Dwarfes with Stout-Axe I guess, or give sliders to Hobbits with River Hobbits. Not that I mind that, but hints to me that these races are handled separately then.
I just hope the Burg will get his well deserved rework. Compared to all other classes on Mordor currently lvl 50 it is lacking in every aspect :/ Elrond!
I'm definitely looking forward to the rework as I really like elves. I'm curious how it retroactively applies to characters you've already made. Would you need to visit a barber to remake your character in the new system?
You think they will ever fix the intermittent lag issues? Like..ever? It's been an issue for so many years, at this point you'd think they just cannot be bothered anymore 😑
that would need them using a new engine and or straightening out the programming spaghetti code IMHO. Which would effectively put the whole team out of action for producing new content. As new content is the money making part of LOTRO i doubt they will ever as it will mean a long down-time in income
"May be similar to Men update" -- please no. Men update was a disaster, and complete waste of devtime. Skin textures are ugly as hell, "new hairstyles" were almost exclusively either something that -should have been- part of Umbar instead of that refresh, soft-modern hairstyles and more traditional options for the game were not expanded upon. People lost customization they had, like scars that were removed, and overall it was big miss. Not to mention god damn bearded women for no reason except to stroke dev's virtue signaling nobody asked for.

It's apparently coming - hopefully soon!
Sounds like they're running 4k which isn't supported, best off running 1440p
Hoping every race gets an update 🙏

Appreciate that a lot - sounds like dumb luck though haha
Welcome to middle earth!
Thank you for these informations😊 Elrond! ❤
Appreciate the update!
Elrond!
Great channel and information!
Elrond!
Thank you!
Anyone else notice that the elf face concept art debuted at comic con was earily similar to how Severlin looks like IRL?
Elrond, Finally!
Appreciate the update on this...sure hope it includes High Elves.
Elrond!

Elf is now looking nicer than himans!! 🎉🎉
Elrond. Also returning player here
Awesome, welcome!
I just hope the Burg will get his well deserved rework. Compared to all other classes on Mordor currently lvl 50 it is lacking in every aspect :/
Elrond!
2 classes are rumored to be reworked at start of 2025, one of them likely Hunter since that was scheduled for this year
Elrond looking you up in his lore books

I think it automatically switches
You need to, if you are not satisfied with the horrid abomination the automatic conversion does...

Elrond!

Hard to say, these are matters you can only guess unless they state something officially.

this is alredy on server test
Oh Test Server just opened today !!
Elrond!
hi there, checking in on lotro occasionally: are there UI changes yet?
Not yet, it's in the works - I will update with a video as soon as there's news.
Elrond 😎

2024 and no UI update forcing players to play on a resolution that is as old as the game itself :D
It's already in development though
Thranduil.....because he's better then Elrond

The female human avatars are horrific
Are they? I found the sliders to be really good. But sliders allow both great and terrible looks equally
These avatar “updates” are simply the result of DEI pressure, disguised as updates. Good luck to serious role-play community.😅
Right? No new proper hairstyles, but 30 options for dreadlocks and soft-modern hairstyles instead
They are making the elf black and Asian.
