It may well be possible now for us to raise enough people to go after that turtle that haunts the depths.

It states that it does additional fire damage, but doesn't give an idea of how much. So, we decided to investigate, as one of the others on the run was an alt of a loremaster, and took down some numbers before and after I applied the scroll. Looks like it's an additional 5% damage.

Judging by the response last night I suspect many people also dislike the place too. I still have three quests left - defeat the library master, cleanse the four (or is it three?) monuments and a third one I can't recall now as I'm not in game (spirit master possibly). Visited last night with Sina and Dwaigrim and had a very painful experience. Individually the spirits are easy to defeat, they just happen to come in groups ...

In Fellowship and Raid the mechanism for following someone's target is awful. The whole thing seems to be geared around having lots of Windows up and focusing on the information in the windows rather than the pretty graphics. The Raid Assist Window is clunky, displaying target's target and clicking on those is messy. Another problem is when the Target Picker changes targets which has happened recently in a couple of groups. Leader says follow ...

They use their survival skills to guide companions and lay traps for enemies. Hunters are at their strongest when attacking from a distance, but are able to defend themselves in melee combat when needed." So we will start with the guiding companions: Hunters are well known of their skills to take people quickly around Eriador. On top of the ...

Anyway, here’s the Loremistress from my point of view. Debuffs Sign of Power command. This slows the enemy, their attack duration is 20% longer, and they lose 0.8% from their parry.
