I had no idea thatLord of the Rings Onlinewas five years old but its anniversary is fast approaching and so is a big old party for you Middle Earth dwellers to enjoy. Oh, andfree loot, which is the best kind of loot. The anniversary festival has started and will run up until April 30th.
For all you basic members, you’re going to get a special 5th anniversary cloak plus a whole load of fireworks. Now that would be enough for me (just the fireworks actually) but Premium and VIP members will get a whole lot more; depending on how long you’ve been playing, you can get your hands on potions, buffs, and even a Portrait frame commemorating your years in Middle Earth.
There’splenty of eventsto keep you busy as well, from horse races to “Better Beer Battles” which sound awesome. Between the 24th and 30th of April you’ll also get a double XP bonus for all your exploits. It seems thatLOTR Onlinehas carried on well aftergoing free to playand I think there’s going to be plenty of players who are going to enjoy this birthday party.
