LOTRO Midsummer Festival (Minas Tirith)

Описание: Lord of the Rings Online (LOTRO) introduced a new festival (Midsummer) this year! Each day you are asked to complete ten quests to help celebrate. You can do this in 30 minutes (or less!), and in this video I show a path to do it (along with a few bonus side quests) and lots of little tips and tricks I have picked up along the way.

Note, my audio cuts out from 52:45 to 56:40 due to hardware issues during the (optional) search for the Cloudyheads members. Turn on subtitles for a rough approximation of what I was saying!

A handy reference for stable masters in Minas Tirith (Midsummer):
Workers’ Tier (1st Circle)
Soldiers’ Tier (2nd Circle)
Craftsmen’s Tier (3rd Circle)
Players’ Tier (4th Circle)
Sages’ Tier (5th Circle)
Masters’ Tier (6th Circle) - Called "High Stables"
The Citadel (7th Circle) - no stable master, use High Stables. Dismount as soon as you load, turn around and run back through the tunnel, then turn right and go up the ramp.

The Route:
