First off, the internet keeps going in and out around here. Netgear internet service keeps going down and back up again - so for the last 5 days we've hardly had internet in this area of Missouri. So says the snow causing it but how do people in Russia, Canada and even Greenland keep up their internet then with all the snow in their area? LOL. Okay lets blame the weather then; we might have 3 inches of that white stuff on the ground without ice. At any rate, the Netgear service can't handle it here - thus leaves us with barely any service so venturing in Middle Earth ain't happening to much and most likely won't until spring time. I can barely post or look up anything online as it is.
Anyway, during what time I was able to get online for the last 5 days: I broke down and ground out 595 TP (took 2 1/2 - 3 days to get it with internet going in and out) in order to open up a third character slot on the servers. Easy way to grind this out is in the Shire I found out! A total of 35 TP for completing 75 (easy) quests in the Shire plus the Pie, Post-Master and Brew-master quests give 15 or 20 TP for the 3 of them. Not including the slayer-deeds, Sights of the Shire and the Farms of the Shire deeds. I believe it was 120? TP in the Shire per toon and can be ground out within about 4-ish hours (with a higher level toon). At any rate - not too long to pound out the 595 TP in-spite of the horrible wintertime Netgear service.
With that 3rd toon slot: Faron and Abelia's son Ahron has decided to join them on the Crickhollow server. He's a level 13 Hunter and aspiring Yeoman. I still have to grind out 95 TP now for his horse trait skill.
Next will be to grind out TP for MoM. 1495 TP for just the area (without all the the extra goodies). The other choice is to 2495 for MoM area plus opens up the Rune-Keeper, Warden, Skirmish Traits maxed out (Rank 15) and 2 extra character slots on each server. So I'm trying to decide which to do - take just the MoM quest pack for 1000 TP less OR do I keep on grinding out deeds for that full deal. I would love to have the extra 2 toon slots per server plus that Rune-Keeper which is 795 alone! Would be cheaper in the long run to keep pounding out deeds but oh boy that is a lot of TP to stamp out and longer to wait to get to Moria! I have a feeling I'm going to grind out the full 2495 but we'll see.
Faron is actually my only toon ready to go to Moria -- so I could simply grind, grind and bump and grind some more to ready my other toons for MoM as well. They all need the Traits anyway.
And speaking of Faron - I just started him in the Woodworker's Guild. For some reason I kept thinking I had to make a choice between the Guild and my Kinship - but someone recently said "NO - they are different"..... so to make a long story short Faron is way behind in the Guild - so I can continue to have him make emblems for the guild until he makes kindred standing with them for to gain his legendary recipes for his legendary weapons as well as fish and finish his unfinished deeds. In a way, Faron is NOT ready for MoM anyway. So I might as well grind out the full 2995 TP for the full package deal for MoM.
Anyway if Netgear will ever get it in gear and keep the net on around here we might have internet service so me and my BF can do something again online. LOL. In the meantime I guess I'll stare at the ceiling some more - nothing else to do. I've read all my books at least 3 times each, seen all my movies several times each and never anything on TV. Yep 7:42 in the morning and ZERO to do but to post a little on the net in between it going out and stare at the walls.
To the other players online now - have fun and kill at least one Warg for me will ya. :) And stay way from Netgear if ya want internet service in the winter. LMAO!
