Kismet News LSN - Right Click Pet Skills!
Posted by Lord Kismet on Monday, June 30, 2008 (04:09:33) (9 reads)

- LSN (learn something new) Series. Smile

Right Click the pet bar skills, on both the Loremaster & the Captain, your pet will auto use those skills. You don't have to watch if your pet is using his/her skills.

I've always found it a little distracting to be checking up on my Herald to see if her skills where back up, in the middle of watching all the cooldowns of my Captain attacks. Now no need to worry, just right click to turn on the auto skill use!

On a side note, as im sure i'll get this question, my herald "Lahesis" is named after one of three Greek Goddesses of Destiny. Wink

Kismet News LM Crew hits 40+!
Posted by Lord Kismet on Monday, June 30, 2008 (03:44:55) (11 reads)

The team pushed forward to hit past 40. Most of us have had our Loremaster's since open beta and they have been neglected.

What is the LM Team (aka the Loremaster Team)? Just a group of us got together to dust off our alts and go for 50.

The Loremaster class is amazing and with four LM at once attacking a group, they can be knocked out in no time. We did alot of running around in North Downs, Evendim & in the Misty Mountains. Also tested out some attacks such as the March of Ents which takes out a group of mobs with its AOE stomp attack. Notice Guru & the Ent stomping their foot together...lol.

After discovering that we need Shire Sweet-Leaf to rez people, i thought i'd farm some with Kismet since he's a GM farmer. I started with 100 fields and realized about 1/2 way through that is way too much, lol. Instead of getting around 400 for everyone. I ended up with enough for 2400 worth after getting tons & tons of crits on fields. I think we are set now, Razz

Kismet News Congrats to Members! 6-29-08
Posted by Lord Kismet on Monday, June 30, 2008 (02:43:16) (9 reads)

Congrats to Hesrai (aka Sharde) on reaching Grand Master Metalsmith!

Also congrats goes out to Tellus as she got a Recipe for this dagger as a drop and asked Kismet to make her one by suppling the materials & a beryl shard. It was her first attempt. She got a critical success & the "TellusBlade" is born!

Kismet also had quite a week with finishing his deed for +5% critical chance. A captian trait called "Expert attacks" which works well with Devastating Blow Skill. I have sadly been neglecting this Skill and used it the other day only to discover this deed.

Also after endless grinding of Rep items and sending them all from my alts to Kismet, he has gotten Kindred Reputation in all the major city areas!

Some Bonus Info! Was looking around to find out where to make the Fishing poles and discovered the patterns in Esteldin. I sent the word to Monde, one of our many Grand Master Woodworkers, to make some critical versions which give +5 Fishing!

Kismet News Kismet's New Machine
Posted by Lord Kismet on Monday, June 23, 2008 (19:38:16) (17 reads)

As most members know i've been waiting around to get my new machine for over a year now. Apple has been doing some major upgrades to just about everything. All my graphics software is Mac based so I needed one that would run OSX & Windows at the same time.

My wait was very worth it as I went with the brand new Imac 24" with Nvidia 8800 card and wow is it amazing. Its good to note that i've been playing on Low Rez for over a year so its like a whole new game..I marvel at the amazing graphics at 1900x1200.

My first log in was in Forchel. I turned all my settings to max & anti-alias to 8x and thought i'd see if it was playable. Not only is it playable but it plays better then my previous machine did on low rez!

I've Uploaded FULL REZ PHOTOS, warning these are 1900x1200 photos...but they show how massively large the playable screen is.

This is by far the easiest install & setup. Was flawless, pulled all my info from my previous machine, started up bootcamp (free program that comes with it, that lets you use a "Apple/Mac" machine as "Native Intel machine"), installed XP, used Mac CD to install drivers and i was off and running! Was easier to install windows on Mac then on PC, rofl! Even my wireless network kicked it without a hitch!

So what was the cost? just over $2300. Its an all in one machine that looks like a Massive monitor or a big TV. Huge is a understatement compared to my previous machines, I had not looked at it in the store so it was quite a surprise how large the monitor is.

Here is the specs for you spec lovers: - Imac 24" - 2 gig ram - Nvidia Gforce 8800 GS w/512mb - 750gb drive - Apple Wired Keyboard & I use my Logitech 8 button mouse.

Kismet News Where has Kismet Been? Part One...
Posted by Lord Kismet on Monday, June 23, 2008 (19:07:58) (19 reads)

Hi all,

I've been getting some wonderings where has Kismet & The team been? The better question is where have we not been...lol. I took a break from the news as i was getting a bit burt out on it, due to the issues I was having moving stuff between machines and keeping up with my twins.

In fact i've gotten to actually play the game more in the past year then in all the years beforehand because of the low Kinship running overhead. My aplogies to members & those who where waiting for me to post stuff..sometimes ya just gotta take a break to get back into doing stuff like our site & news and such.

Here is a just a small sample of all the fun we've been up to.. Had to split it into two parts...so here's part one... and/or Click here to see the LARGER PHOTOS plus a few bonus ones.

LOTR Online News new instances coming to LOTRO this summer
Posted by Varwe on Friday, May 30, 2008 (14:36:25) (63 reads)


For those who have been at level 50 for a while and have been wondering when new "endgame" content is coming, you have your answer!  In the Stratics Dev Chat with Turbine LOTRO developers a few days ago, it was revealed that Book 14 (expected to be published sometime mid-summer) will bring not one, but THREE new level 50, 6-man instances to LOTRO.  In addition, Book 14 is going to bring some revisions to the current instances in Angmar and Annuminas, among them the addition of new deeds associated with Uru, CD, BG, and Annuminas. 

If you want to read more about this and other topics regarding LOTRO's future, check out the full dev chat transcript

Kismet Twins Arrive

Hi all,
been out all week because the Kismet Twins showed up a bit early on Monday, April 7th. Both girls are healthy and beautiful (daddy bias, :P). Mom and babies are now home and resting up after their big adventure. The twins are a handful, but a joy. I'll see you all in game.
