The Aegean Eagles are a multi-ethnic LOTRO kinship. Founded by a group of friends on Gilrain in 2007, moved to Snowbourn in 2009 and now based at Evernight server. The company's idea, 11 years later, still sparkles. Welcome, friend.
i spent like 5 hours in total so far on Bullroarer. To check out the landscape and also the new armour and of course the new essences. If you don't want any spoilers, don't read any further. I could not take screenshot of everything yet. I gonna try to give you more in the next couple of days and weeks. If you have some screenshots for the kinnies to add feel free to show what you have After all don't forget all the things you see is on Beta- Server. So things might be changed before they get life in the end.
Let's start with the new armour. As soon as you hit level 106, your ratings will be changed, which means you become quiet weak. There is new armour for level 106 i guess from quests, I could not figure that out yet since i don'T quest on Beta. But that is what i saw in the tavern, you could take the armour. We also gonna have different armour sets 2 of them especially for minstrels and guardians for example there is a healing - set/ tanking set and a dps - set. Also various armour - sets which i did not have a look into yet. A lot of purple stuff. but ofc also the good stuff, teal. A new stat has been brought into the game 'The Light of Earendil'. SInce the deeper you get into Mordor, you get a debuff which becomes stronger as well 'The Shadow of Mordor'. As I noticed yesterday it tiers up to IX. This debuff makes you weaker. Means: your incoming damage is increased and not even by 1% it depends on how deep you are in Mordor. it goes over 30- 40% if i saw that correctly. If you use the new armour which is going to grant you the Light of Earendil you will sort of work against all these negative stats. The higher your Light of Earendil - stat is, the lesser you incoming damage is gonna become. That means if you level up and upgrade your armour steadily you gonna become more powerful, by leveling. You also gonna notice that our stats have massivly changed. The stats are huge on essences and also on the relics. We gonna notice a different side of the game now.
What i brought here to you is the endgame armour. (Healing Crit defence i sloted by excident since some essences have the same appearance and i just blindly put them -> noob)
Let's move on to the essences and relics for level 115. I only made screenshots of the teal - versions, since i thought this is probably what we are all interested in the most. Since we plan on doing endgame, don't we? There is no morale - essences anymore in the game. Everything is based as before they brought out the essences, on vitality now. But if soomeone is interested in the other essences, like green and purple ones, just let me know and i gonna make a screenshot of them as well.
Crafting Guys, there will be new recipes for all craftings. We gonna be able to craft sloted jewellery again. Which is, as I saw it the best in the game. Also we gonna have new food introduced with level 115. But NO! new hope tokens.

Landscape We are playing in the time after Sauron's deafeat. That is why you don't see Barad Dûr in it's full size anymore. Same goes for Mount Doom. Mount Doom has been broken open and seems to be way smaller. Since they said on twitch they would not give us the Epic to be available i guess they have some special surprises for us in there Probably gonna see all these things before they get destroyed.

Good job Andhy! The stat increases look ridiculous right now, i hope they don't screw up with the final balance. Also check this that confirms what was roumored (note the max lvl)

Mind no bonus is active from a 10lvl or below armour concerning you character level
I Also noted that Relic stats have been decreased since Andhy was on. Seem the best relics now contain 371 of main stat instead of the higher in earlier pictures.

Hey Guys, spend some more time on BR in the Tavern.
NOTE: BOTH POST ARE DUE AS 22'TH JULI ON BR. - Relics have already been nerfef since i last checked
Last visuals of the armours in the Tavern. PLease note that some armour sets for all 3 catagories have no visuals. THs affects the Abyss/Wyrm armour sets for all.
Otherwise there seems to be 3 different visuals, and they all appear in several armour sets.
Last Medium set:
Lights as requested by Nenu (in my opinion, they look rubbish but were we go). Last Set is the best t3 dps and support with gear (not slotted tho!)
Medium gear available. Again note 1 set for Bear and 1 set for rest of the agi mediums.
I took a look at relics and essences, just to be sure.
Furthermore i play cappy by far the most, so i sat a new char up. Made LI's, geared it
Please note that in a dps test, the captains sure strike made my critical rating reach 25 % (51k)
Support/Tank set
Stat %:
Critical Rating: 6.4 , 3.5 and 7.6 Finesse: 15.9 Physical Mastery: 188 Tactical Mastery: 170 Resistance: 29 Critical Defense: 63.2 (please note that +7 must be added on top due to yellow) Incoming Heal: 5 Block: 17.8 , 22 , 47.2 Parry: 19 , 22.3 , 47.4 Evade: 102 , 15.4 , 40.7 Physical mitigation: 60 (normal cap) and 32 (Orc-craft and Fell Wrought - Ettenmoors) Tactical mitigation: 56.8 (all)
Finally, i tried Dps on the training dummy in galtrev to look for any improvements. I did find some.
Note that the posted is done with 3 anthems of 4.3k and 7.3k tact mast (My friend didnt max his LI's). Furthermore it wasnt my best run, managed solo to go above 50k but, tbh, dunno when the training dummy lets you out of combat so plugin stops counting seconds... :3 My Best atm with 6 maxed mini anthems is 49k including armour bonus etc. conclusion is there is improvement i think

Thanks Obalind for the extensive presentation. Armour appearances suck imo, especially light armour is a joke. Even i have problems wearing this torn shit Check this guy's reaction at 2:22

I Agree mind (yani). light is a mess, if you colour heavy the same colour it actually looks good in my eyes, and so does medium, but overall, nothing to fancy - as said, abyss/wyrm sets are missing visuals, so maybe they get better xD
