I've got an Elven Princess - I wonder whether she's a Noldo?

I got about 120 Runic Cheese. Going to hunt the Acolyte.

This should be interesting.

Also, I caught my first Lich.

EDIT: I just got the Acolyte. That was fast. I now regret having made all those runes into over a hundred pieces of Runic Cheese, since I only used about 8 pieces... But there's no way I could have known... I guess maybe I should go after the Chrono or something?

You can never have too much Runic cheese, IMHO. acolytes are good to hunt for the loot they drop, so you should have no problems using it. Plus, you still need to catch a Chrono. And I don't think you need Runes for anything else except maybe the RP? Can't remember.

I don't know what the "RP" is, but I need 60 Runes to make the Ice Maiden.

You'll also need stale super brie for a lot of crafted traps later on. Runic is one of the few cheeses out there that will turn into stale super brie upon going stale. It's definitely a good idea to have a small stash of it at any given time

We didn't place in our 2 day warpath tournie (and it's entirely my fault ). I'm hanging out in the warpath for a few more minutes because I've got a streak of seven, and I want to deal a rather stunning blow to wave 1 before heading out .

I'll probably head over to the seasonal garden to see if I can try attracting a leprechaun.

Not a single prize mouse has been attracted to my trap.

As far as I know, only Ithil, Ara, and I have attracted one.

Still waiting for the Call to Arms.

Hey Dot, you already have it. I can see it in your inventory.

@Ithil, oh, you'll use it. Aside from what other have mentioned, there are also Forgotten tournaments

I don't know what the "RP" is

Reaper's Perch, only uses 6 runes.

@Varna,

We didn't place in our 2 day warpath tournie (and it's entirely my fault ).

I don't know about that. Friday was just a bad day for the whole team. We were all busy. I know I was offline a lot and when I'd sign in I'd be the only one there. It's ok next time we'll get it.

I'm currently on the Huntington trying to snag a Relic Hunter. After I get a map I like, I'll be joining you in the SG to get my amplifier back up.

I would like to know how Ithy is attracting so many event mice

I've been hanging out in various places around the Kingdom... decided to head to the Slushy Shoreline and get more parts for bases... 4 more Wire Spools and I can build the Spiked Base.

I could actually build one of a few things if I payed for the parts, but I'm gonna wait til after Halloween in case there's an event trap associated with it.

Hey Dot, you already have it. I can see it in your inventory.

. . .

The irony of this situation is that I actually checked my inventory several times to see if I just missed it being dropped. You must have magic finding skills or something.

Oops, thought you had the Ice Maiden already. In that case, don't worry. It's super easy to collect more Runes. The Grove is the best place, I think, but the mice in the AR also drop them (but not as much) and you'll sometimes get Runes in a Mysterious Chests. Just depends on how quick you want them. I would use up your Runic in the AR, and then go back to the Grove and just hunt with Ancient until you have 60. Or, save your Runic until you have a better base/charm setup for Aco's (they are tough little things!). Up to you.

And in regards to stale SB+, I've found that I've gotten far more Stale SB+ from Free Gifts of the Day than I'll probably ever use. So I've never had to purposefully stale the stuff, thank goodness. I'd be so bummed if I had to; SB+ is too expensive and Runic is a bit of a pain to get.

I realized that I haven't posted in here in awhile, so I might as well give a brief update. Not much has changed for me. I was recently able to acquire my Golden Tournament Base, which makes me SUPER happy. No Champ charms yet, but I'm trying to scrounge up some tokens to buy some, lol. It's harder now because I can't tourney at work anymore.

Thanks to some DragonBane charm sales, the splitting of the cost of some Rare Dust that I bought and other stuff, I've become decently rich. I'm happy, because that means I'm fairly well set-up for Event Season, which is great. I will be ranking up to Lady soon; hopefully within the next week or two depending on how much time I can spend in the Cove. Just over 30mil points; I think my next point goal is 35mil for one of the Zugwang traps? I don't remember. Either way, no rush.

Looking forward to getting some new areas to hunt in, and to getting some Champ Charms so I can finally try my luck at Balack.

I have a question, has anybody heard whether or not they changed the way you attract the Relic Hunter? Or rather, tweaked him? I thought that with the increased number of relics you had in your inventory, the greater chance you had to attract him. I had 13 relics yesterday when I started farming for him on the Huntington, and have attracted him once. That's a far cry from when I had 6 or 7 relics and attracted him almost five times in a row.
Anyways, I know they've done some tweaking on the treasure hunts, I was just curious if this was one of the things they've tweaked.

I'm betting it's less than a week til the Halloween event starts. Yay! Event season. (We say this every year but then at the end of event season everyone is sick to death of events. )

I attracted him with only one relic - but I guess that's just luck, a little luck dropped at beginners to keep them happy and hopeful

My current goal is to become a Master as soon as possible - after that I can be more laid back and quietly learn how to do more sophisticated tasks

I had a total of four relics today, and nabbed two relic hunters today in the seasonal garden. I don't think there's a correlation between number of relics and attraction rate of the mouse.

Switched over to the forbidden grove in hopes that I can attract/catch a Leprechaun.

Ithil may have gotten lucky attracting so many mice in the FG/AR out of us Nwebbers, but the Warpath is handily winning on the MH forum (as far as I can find) for attractions/catches. Now that may simply be because more people are hunting there in the first place, but that's where Ara attracted her Leprechaun. Two days left!

After complaining about not snagging a Relic Hunter I finally caught four five of them. I started a new map, still trying to help my one last friend going for the trap, but this one has a Black Widow on it so we'll see if we keep it or not. Hopefully with a full group hunting in the Lagoon we'll catch her relatively quickly.

So, the game is currently down. Server issues again. Methinks that this will mean either glitchpaws will enter the game OR we'll see some sort of boost in the prize mouse attraction rate as a reward.

*hopes for the latter*

EDIT: They posted on facebook that the game was back up. . . but it's still not working for me.

I don't think it ever went down for me... though I've been trying to get lotro to work all day, so I may simply not have noticed...

I have yet to get a wire spool to drop... talk about bad luck!

Well, tomorrow is the last day with increased prize mice, and I didn't attract a single one. Hopefully I can nab one tomorrow. . . but I doubt it
