Thank you so much for this guide! I fell in love with the rune-keeper class long ago but didn't try it until 2 years ago and got into it this year, so a lot of changes have happened. I love your videos, watching you enjoying the game it's amazing.
after a 7 year break i have got back into the game and this video was helpful for my Rune Keeper build, but I am only level 36 at the moment; but its still useful
I dunno if my toughts are beeing noticed. I have already send the Lotro Team a really Short idea of a concept of how the runekeeper should change. I Think that the runekeeper is sadly no fun anymore After the three coulor skill tree change. My concept overall was about mixing some Elements in every Single tree and creating some Combo skill with that. For example for the RED tree you could Mix fire and lighting and making flamable lightning storms that can ignite the ground. ( damage tree) Or for the blue tree you can Mix ice and fire to create an evasive healer achetype that can make healing fogs After using a fire skill and a ice skill afterwards so you unlock a Combo skill. Maybe the yellow one could be a boardI controler that could make use of slowing ice spell and destructive earth spells maybe creating an erea that can slow targets and pin them. Think that concept could have a lot of Potential because now the runekeeper is only fully using one Element with no diversity and fun at all. (My opinion). Hope this idea will inspire some people and create a room for discussion.
I think that is a neat idea, but I would likely unrealistic for it to ever be implemented to the Rune Keeper class. Perhaps an idea for a new class in the future, though? We don't have too many casters or too many elemental based classes yet.
Hello Louey. Thank you for all the info you give to the community! I Started 1 month ago and mainly using your videos as a guide. I have a question for you about the Attunement addon you have in this video. Whats the name of that plugin ? much better than the standard one. Thank you!
I do not use an addon for attunement, but now that you mention in, there might be a setting to change it? I feel like there used to be a separate UI element for the attunement, whereas it is docked for me now (same spot as fervour/etc)
Great video, one think i always forget to say is that when you hover over your stuff, it always shows the info at the bottom of the screen, its pretty bad. Thanks for the vid.
Ahh, that's where I just have my static tooltips normally set to. I'll try somewhere else for the next one. Another thing I noticed was the trait tree itself takes such a small portion of the screen and that is what I am looking at most of the time, a bit odd. But I'll look into the positioning of things for the next one!
I tried watching the video, but I am a beginner with the class and I can't find anything that explains Attunement and how its used and when its used. Everyone talks about just skills and tree spec, but I need to know how attunement works. Can you tell me. Or was it in this video and I missed it somewhere? I tried watching other TH-camrs on the same subject but no one will explain.
Could you tell me which virtues you recommend in general? I see a lot of conflicting information when I read about virtues. Some people say go all in on main stat/mastery virtues when you're playing DPS or heal specs (wit + honesty/valour + wisdom/determination/zeal + confidence and loyalty or fidelity) on the other hand, some people say load up on mitigation virtues at all times. What's currently optimal for end game content? Cheers.
For current level 130 meta for DPS, most use 4 DPS virtues (wit, honesty, wisdom, confidence), then Loyalty tend to provide the most value at that level. For lower levels and some previous end game caps, tactical mitigation and morale virtues provide a larger benefit, so it really depends on what content you are doing and what level you are. Also even for level 130, virtues are flexible if you need a particular stat that is not covered by those 4 DPS virtues and Loyalty, you could swap some for a stat you need.
Sorry about that! It picks up the vibrations from my keyboard a lot because all it has is the table stand (same surface as my keyboard). Hopefully I can update some equipment to fix it in the future!
@@Louey7 lol its cool I know that life. Used to have a blue yeti on a table stand before I got a mic arm. Was funny though cause the first time I heard it I was like "what...?" then the next time it was loud enough for me to physically turn around in my chair and look around lol. Was like that old knocking prank video back in the day! :P great video btw!

Yellowline is my favorite RK line. Glad to see it updated.
Thanks, also for the written guide. I am actually new to lotro and after investigating the classes i thought runekeeper looked most interesting.
What I knew before: zap zap zap zap zap zap ...
What I know now: how to zap zap zap zap zap ...
Thanks, yellow line has gone through changes especially with not using consumers like back in the day

Red line RK guide too please!

Louey7 do you have a similar video on red RK?
Thank you for this guide, it is very helpful!
Nice! Keep them coming!
That thumbnail perfect colours

@@Louey7 Thanks a lot, mate. Your content is excellent.
Your mic vibrating scared the crap out of me. Thought someone was stomping up on me from behind!
