How to Make the Best Class on LOTRO

"Lord of the Rings Online" is a free massively multiplayer online role-playing game. It takes place within a realm of medieval fantasy based on the "Lord of the Rings" books and movie series. Like most games of its kind, you create a character and choose from a variety of different classes. You can choose from the following: burglar, captain, champion, guardian, hunter, lore-master, minstrel, rune-keeper and warden. Each class has certain strengths, weaknesses and roles. With this in mind, creating the best class possible will maximize your performance and overall experience within the game.

Instructions

- 1
  Establish your role. Before you choose a class, decide what your preferred play style is. Some characters are better suited for heavy melee fighting -- or "tanking" -- such as the champion, guardian and warden. Other classes provide support, such as the burglar, hunter, minstrel and rune-keeper. Support classes keep a safe distance from the battle, providing ranged attacks, damage bonuses and healing.
- 2
  Upgrade your equipment. Different classes use different weapons and armor. As you advance through the game, you gain access to better items that boost your ability to harm, heal and defend, among other things. Obtain equipment appropriate to your level in order to maximize your performance and maintain the best class possible.
- 3
  Gain skills. As your character's level increases through quests and combat, you unlock new
  
  class-specific skills. These regularly provide you with powerful special attacks, bonuses and other useful abilities. To obtain a skill, go to a class-specific trainer and learn the ability for a small fee. Upgrade regularly to keep your chosen class strong.
