Turbine's games are all down for maintenance today, with <a href="http://www.lotro.com"><em>Lord of the Rings Online</em></a> getting the full treatment during its downtime. The first post <em><a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/tag/mines-of-moria">Mines of Moria</a></em> patch to drop onto the live service hits today, with an impressively lengthy list of changes. We <a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/2008/11/26/mines-of-moria-patch-1-release-notes-show-turbines-humorous-sid/">discussed these patch notes initially last week</a> when <a href="http://forums.lotro.com/showthread.php?t=191971">the official notes</a> showed up on the boards, both because of their length and the humor shown in their writing. Most interesting to this blogger are the improvements to Guardian threat, making them competitive in <a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/2008/10/20/massively-in-moria-hands-on-with-the-warden/">the new world of Wardens</a> and their shouty-taunts. <br /><br />Today all those new tweaks are actually going live, with the game servers slated to come back online at 2pm EST. That's no time at all to wait, and <a href="http://forums.lotro.com/showthread.php?t=191971">working through the patch notes</a> might take you just about that long. So, go check em' out or read back through <a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/category/know-your-lotro-lore/">our Know Your LotRO Lore</a> columns to pass the time. See you in game!<p style="padding:5px;background:#ffffcc;border:1px solid #ffff99;clear:both;"><a href="http://massively.joystiq.com"><img src="http://massively.joystiq.com/media/feedlogo.gif" alt="Massively" style="float:left;padding:0 5px 5px 0;" /></a><a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/2008/12/01/lord-of-the-rings-online-down-for-first-post-moria-patch/">Lord of the Rings Online down for first post-Moria patch</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://massively.joystiq.com">Massively</a> on Mon, 01 Dec 2008 12:30:00 EST.
