In another Developer Diary by Tim “Raskolnikov” Lang, we take a look at the Burglar changes that are upcoming in Rise of Isengard.

In this article I take a look at my experiences with the Burglar from levels 40-50.

Orion posted another class blog yesterday discussing some proposed changes concerning the Burglar and the Warden class. It appears that Raskolnikov will be heading up the Burglar changes and that Orion will be heading up the Warden class.

I’ve said it before, but I’ll say it again: Burglars are underrated. I’ve heard stories of Burglars healing groups with their Fellowship Maneuvers, which despite their difficulty, I feel are probably one of the most integral and underutilized aspects of grouping. So what makes them so unattractive?

So you used to play World of Warcraft and now are interested in this amazing game called Lord of the Rings Online. You loved your character in WoW and would like to play something similar to that, if possible. This post is to try to help you find that similar class in LOTRO.
