Book 13 to feature new armour set vendors in Angmar


The revamp of Angmar that was featured in Lord of the Rings Online's Book 12 patch brought about a number of new armour sets that were obtained from quests in the area. However, some of the pieces of these sets were made available through quests that were already in the game prior to Book 12, which meant that a lot of people had already completed those quests and have been unable to get those particular new items. This has left some ticked off people with incomplete sets, and no way to do anything about it.

A solution to this problem has been found, and according to this thread at the official forums, new vendors will be introduced with Book 13 that will sell the armour pieces. Part of the requirement to use these items will be to have completed the associated quest that they originally came from. They won't be cheap either, seeing as this approach makes it possible to "double-dip", as MadeOfLions puts it, on the quest rewards. Expect the new vendors with Book 13 in Aughaire and Gabilshathur. The thread that broke the news contained a lot of player requests to have a similar system in place for other quest sets, but who knows if this would be considered when there isn't a particular problem to fix, as there was in this case.
