Posted on10. Aug, 2010 by Goldenstar.
Honestly this post could be summed up quite simply as “Not Much” but I thought it worth a post to describe the smaller more subtle changes currently in beta.

Death From Below for Minstrels
Posted on29. Jun, 2010 by Bryandt.
Death From Below is a solo instance in Thangúlhad, Mirkwood granted by the dwarf Vatnar. Completion of this instance rewards with you one Malledhrim Gold Star Emblem. It’s currently one of the toughest solo instances in the game and can be a real headache for certain classes, such as the minstrel. However, it can be done. This is how I handle it.

Minstrel Healing: Communication
Posted on02. Jun, 2010 by Goldenstar.
This is the final post in my series about the different things minstrels (or in some cases all healers) need to think about when healing a fellowship. See the other posts concerning Healing Priorities, Threat Management and Power Management in case you missed them! Today’s topic is focusing on communication which is something everyone should [...]

Minstrel Healing: Power Management
Posted on26. May, 2010 by Goldenstar.
A healer out of power is not a useful healer. A healer needs to really learn to efficiently keep health bars up while maintaining a good power pool throughout a fight.

Minstrel Healing: Threat Management
Posted on20. May, 2010 by Goldenstar.
Today we’re going to talk about threat management (sometimes called “aggro” or “hate”) which is something every player should be managing in a fight. The tank wants threat, everyone else wants to stay under the tank’s threat.

Minstrel Healing: Healing Priorities
Posted on18. May, 2010 by Goldenstar.
I am not saying I’m a great healing minstrel but I started in LOTRO as a minstrel class and minstrel still is my main. I am not a big fancy raid healer but I do a dungeon or raid when I can and I believe I have some tips I can share to the up [...]

Project Altoholism: The Minstrel 20 – 30
Posted on17. Apr, 2010 by Merric.
For my second character to take through the Lone-lands I chose the Minstrel. I really wanted to keep my perspective even through my leveling experience, so I wanted to try a character that was less reliant upon melee and more reliant upon ranged combat. So with that in mind, I equipped him with new gear, [...]

Drive-by Heals Can Kill
Posted on14. Jan, 2010 by Goldenstar.
I have been a “drive-by healer” in the past. If I notice someone struggling to kill a mob or running away, I’ll step in and give them a boost with a cheery song. I assume that my little ditty helped the player finish what they were working on and being quite proud of myself will carry on my merry-merry way.

Minstrel Crowd Control
Posted on06. Jan, 2010 by Goldenstar.
I come from old days of MMO play where the plan was to divide and conquer. Separate the mobs into as many little chunks as possible and have your team cut them down one at a time.

I Don’t Always Listen
Posted on01. Jan, 2010 by Goldenstar.
People have been kind (brave?) enough to take me to heal their instances in the past. It’s confession time for Goldenstar and this may make everyone who has ever fellowshiped with me now, or in the future cringe: I don’t always listen to the boss fight strategy.

Outside LOTRO: Tolkien Inspired Bard
Posted on27. Nov, 2009 by Goldenstar.
Our thanks go out again to Heiko for sharing these YouTube videos of Colin John Rudd who has put some music to Tolkien’s lyrics like Galenswerd is doing with his Lonely Mountain Band project. However, while Lonely Mountain Band is 100% Tolkien work, Colin John Rudd has a mix of music types in his extensive postings on YouTube.
