Follow the Fellowship from the start
Just as Blizzard is cashing in on nostalgia with “WoW Classic,” a re-creation of the original era ofWorld of Warcraft, so too is theLord of the Rings Onlineteam working on a classic rendition ofLOTRO. Dubbed “legendary servers,” these shards will allow players to start the game all over again and begin the journey of the Fellowship anew with equal footing. Initially, legendary servers will cap at level 50 (it’s currently 120 on normal servers): a number that will slowly rise over time (something that differentiates it fromWoW Classic).
Publisher Daybreak notes that transfers are currently not open for the upcoming legendary servers and that both versions of the game (legendary and modern, which yes,continues to be patched) will continue to be updated side by side.
