LOTRO Legendarium: Could LOTRO use its monster player classes for something other than PvP?
- Lord of the Rings Online created monster player classes for PvP due to lore restrictions preventing Free Peoples from fighting each other.
- The upcoming Angmar Sorceress class raises the question of diverse uses for monster player classes beyond PvP.
- These monster classes, like Orc Reaver and Spider Weaver, offer unique race/class combinations distinct from standard player races.
- The idea of player-controlled monsters was previously explored in the original Middle-earth Online concept.
- One suggestion is to create a special PvP server where monster players can engage in free-for-all battles in Eriador.
- However, large-scale PvP may not align with LOTRO's player base, as evidenced by previous unsuccessful PvP server attempts.
- An alternative proposal is to allow monster players to undertake missions outside of the Ettenmoors, expanding their PvE experiences.
- These missions could involve tasks like infiltrating fortresses or seeking artifacts, potentially influencing PvP with buffs or siege equipment.
- Another suggestion is to introduce challenges like stealth runs for monsters in different areas of Middle-earth.
- Exploring quests and storylines for monster players beyond the PvP zone could add diversity to gameplay, though it may be a challenging prospect.
