Shelob09/20/2020
You think that one who can spin living darkness and wants to
consume the world has happy thoughts?
Ar-Pharazon-V09/20/2020
You just gotta believe.
Shelob09/20/2020
I am. Which is why I'll get older than Sauron.

[4:13 PM]
International Talk Like a Pirate Day.
Yes, it infiltrates our game worlds, maties.
[4:13 PM]
That was the 19th, but still affecting our games!
Ar-Pharazon-V09/20/2020
I can add to WoW that the vote for a new unique mount idea is over,
and the big tree won, should be interesting
Varda09/20/2020
Fangorn should be delighted!
Ar-Pharazon-V09/20/2020
Does he play?
Varda09/20/2020
He made a face.
[4:14 PM]
No, he's a big tree.
[4:14 PM]
He can escape.
Ar-Pharazon-V09/20/2020
Yes, but still, gotta play to get it
[4:14 PM]
It'll be free for Shadowlands players, I think.
Varda09/20/2020
Lord of the Rings Online:
[4:15 PM]
Very pleased to say that Irmo now has his warden, Yrmo, maxed at
level 130!
Ar-Pharazon-V09/20/2020
Grats!
Shelob09/20/2020
I spotted the following people in LotRO this week:
Varda, Irmo, Nar, Lenwe (briefly), Fangorn (briefly before meeting).
Arien dropped in somewhere as well, I think.
Varda09/20/2020
Huzzah! It let us game together in nasty instances. : )
Arien Valar09/20/2020
Grats
Varda09/20/2020
Good to get to see each other!
Irmo09/20/2020
<smiles radiantly> 3rd lvl 130 after Varda and Fangorn
Arien Valar09/20/2020
I did yes when was it .. Monday night ?
Varda09/20/2020
After a long hiatus, he came up fast!
Arien Valar09/20/2020
or Tuesday .. one of them anyway
Varda09/20/2020
Anyway, we're delighted to have another 130 to play with. : )
Ar-Pharazon-V09/20/2020
We're gonna be so far behind.. in a week or two we'll drop from 120
to 50
Varda09/20/2020
oops : )
[4:17 PM]
LotRO Beacon Issue # 176 is out.

He doesn't plan to play there much, but he brought his presence. : )
[4:20 PM]
Any other gaming news? Valarites you've seen?
Ar-Pharazon-V09/20/2020
Well, Fladrif shows as having been on bnet this week
Varda09/20/2020
Starcraft 2: Fangorn, Eowyn, and Faramir.
[4:20 PM]
O good! Hi to the ent.
Shelob09/20/2020
Doing pretty well on the LotRO front. Got to level 30 and
completed epic 1 book 2 this week.
Varda09/20/2020
Eve: Pallando, Sauron, possibly Shelob?
Shelob09/20/2020
On my new Rune Keeper that is.
Varda09/20/2020
Very good, Shelob!
Shelob09/20/2020
Sorry, too busy with LotRO to play EVE.
Varda09/20/2020
It's hard to play more than one MMO and do them both well.
Shelob09/20/2020
Well, that and school
Varda09/20/2020
Right, and all other real life. Work etc. Leaves us only a
certain amount of game time.
[4:23 PM]
Any other news? Don't want anyone left out.
[4:24 PM]
On to
[4:24 PM]
top
Tolkien!
There has been some posting on the forum
story, for those who haven't seen it lately.
[4:25 PM]
We're slow, but we keep working on it.
[4:26 PM]
Anyone present for Tolkien, please type Manwe.
[4:26 PM]
Manwe
Ar-Pharazon-V09/20/2020
Manwe
Irmo09/20/2020
Off to sleep I go, Namarië all
Varda09/20/2020
Sleep well, Lord of Dreams!
[4:27 PM]
Wonder what a lord of dreams dreams of.
Ar-Pharazon-V09/20/2020
Namarie!
[4:27 PM]
Probably something fractal.
Irmo09/20/2020
Not going to tell anyway
Varda09/20/2020
Leave them guessing, Irmo! : )
[4:29 PM]
The various Valar had all sorts of interactions. They didn't
just solo.
[4:29 PM]
They sang and played instruments together in the song of creation,
and later worked together (or against) to bring that imagining into
reality.
[4:30 PM]
The Valar worked with each other, and with Maiar.
[4:30 PM]
They had to have massive numbers of stories that we will never know,
of great importance to the world.
[4:31 PM]
The stuff we make our folklore from. Where did this come from? Is
this a giant footprint filled with water to make this lake?
[4:31 PM]
Can we think of some of those interactions?
Ar-Pharazon-V09/20/2020
Yeah, strange how those giants only tend to leave one footprint with
none other to be found.
[4:31 PM]
Are they using a giant pogostick?
Varda09/20/2020
That explains a string of ponds?
Ar-Pharazon-V09/20/2020
Of various sizes, sure.
[4:32 PM]
First interaction that comes to mind is Manwe and Ulmo creating rain
Varda09/20/2020
My thought as well. : )
[4:33 PM]
And to everyone's surprise, Melkor's cold plus rain made beautiful
snow and ice.
Ar-Pharazon-V09/20/2020
Oh yes, beautiful ice, as many of the Noldor can attest to
Varda09/20/2020
Some pretty things are best left on the shelf.
Ar-Pharazon-V09/20/2020
Just sometimes a bit too slippery?
Varda09/20/2020
Yavanna made great trees that dripped pools of light.
[4:34 PM]
Aule made sparks from his hammer and anvil.
Shelob09/20/2020
Like Elves, Varda?
Varda09/20/2020
Varda took from those and made stars.
[4:35 PM]
Elf on the shelf, heh.
Ar-Pharazon-V09/20/2020
Is that what your pantry looks like, Shelob?
Varda09/20/2020
Orcs in the webbing?
Shelob09/20/2020
Mostly Orcs aye.
Varda09/20/2020
Pairs of Valar worked together so closely that they were married
couples.
Shelob09/20/2020
Some other tasty morsels, courtesy of Gollum.
Varda09/20/2020
Namo in the Halls with Vaire the Weaver.
Shelob09/20/2020
Varda and Manwe chief among those.
Varda09/20/2020
Something like the Norns - weaving fate, snipping threads.
Shelob09/20/2020
Aule and Yavanna, even though it often grieved Yavanna that Aule
provided the children of Iluvatar with the tools to use and bend all
things natural to their will.
Varda09/20/2020
Together, Manwe and Varda had greater range of sight and hearing.
[4:39 PM]
True. And that caused her to make yet more great things, like the
guardian ents.
[4:39 PM]
And Children of Iluvatar that took care of the things of nature.
[4:40 PM]
And some that taught various trees to speak.
Shelob09/20/2020
Aye, there were some interesting interactions between Aule and
Yavanna.
Ar-Pharazon-V09/20/2020
Eh, typical marital quibbles.
Shelob09/20/2020
Osse and Uinen come to mind as well.
Varda09/20/2020
Tulkas the laughing wrestler with Nessa the dancer.
Ar-Pharazon-V09/20/2020
I was thinking of Osse and Uinen, but wasn't sure if they were
siblings in that phase of the story.
Varda09/20/2020
Married couple, aye.
[4:45 PM]
It can get complicated. Namo and Irmo are brothers, together called
the Feanturi, the masters of spirits.
[4:46 PM]
Sometimes we hear of sleep being called the little death.
[4:46 PM]
Their sister is Nienna.
[4:47 PM]
She teaches pity and may well be the source of hope.
[4:47 PM]
Gandalf in the books would refer to Pity with a capital P.
Ar-Pharazon-V09/20/2020
Conversely, death being the big sleep.
Varda09/20/2020
Right : )
Shelob09/20/2020
Nah, just a temporary stopover at Mandos.
Varda09/20/2020
Nienna brings wisdom and strength to those that are inside the halls
of Mandos, when she visits.
[4:49 PM]
Vana is the wife of Orome.
Shelob09/20/2020
Were Arien and Tilion related in any way?
Varda09/20/2020
Orome is the hunter, while creatures love Nienna and flowers spring
up around her.
Ar-Pharazon-V09/20/2020
Wasn't Vana or Orome also a sibling to someone else?
Shelob09/20/2020
Vana was related to Yavanna, right?
Varda09/20/2020
For the Arien and Tilion story, I'll refer you to this that takes
you next to Tilion:
[4:52 PM]
http://valarguild.org/varda/Tolkien/encyc/articles/a/Arien/Arien.htm
Arien
Article on Arien
[4:54 PM]
Vana, before it was decided that the Ainur did not have children,
was the daughter of Yavanna.
Ar-Pharazon-V09/20/2020
Aule's stepdaughter?
Varda09/20/2020
I would assume his daughter, but that needs checked.
[4:56 PM]
Irmo's wife is Este, don't think we mentioned her yet.
[4:58 PM]
Fittingly, her name means "Rest".
Shelob09/20/2020
Namarié everyone. Time for bed!
Varda09/20/2020
So the dreaming and resting go together.
Ar-Pharazon-V09/20/2020
Namarie!
Varda09/20/2020
Namarie, Shelob!
Ar-Pharazon-V09/20/2020
To rest, perhaps to dream.
[4:59 PM]

Varda09/20/2020
Thank you!
[5:02 PM]
sparkles happily
Arien Valar09/20/2020
oh did you see my request for help by the Way?
Pallando-Valar09/20/2020
..Aiya!
Arien Valar09/20/2020
in Lotro i need some back up for the catacombs under osgiliath to kill the head of the
remaining enemy forces .. they are non elites he is a signature but
they are quite dense and the hunter is still under 105
Ar-Pharazon-V09/20/2020
Aiya!
Arien Valar09/20/2020
so if you have an alt around that level would be sufficient :)P
[5:12 PM]
aiya Pallando
Varda09/20/2020
Aiya - back. Hi Pallando and Arien.
[5:24 PM]
I saw. But isn't it bed time? : )
[5:25 PM]
Not sure what part of Osgiliath you needed help with? Underground?
[5:25 PM]
ah, yes, ok.
[5:25 PM]
Do you want to run now?
[5:25 PM]
I can join you.
Ioreth09/20/2020
I really need to buy the expansion so that I can level
Varda09/20/2020
That would be lovely. : ) Aiya Ioreth
Arien Valar09/20/2020
When would be a good time then ? it is a bit late but i dont think
it would take too long
Varda09/20/2020
If I take my hunter, it should not be bad. Still re-tooling her
stuff, but she can still rock along.
[5:32 PM]
I just went back into LotRO
Ioreth09/20/2020
Anyone run lotro on dual monitors - more specifically ones
that are different sizes (laptop with larger external monitor)
Varda09/20/2020
I do, but it's a TV instead of monitor
Ioreth09/20/2020
it thinks that it should be the same resolution as my laptop
monitor. I suppose this means I have to make my external monitor my
"main" monitor
Varda09/20/2020
Mine shows 1 and 2
[6:04 PM]
Select one to change it's settings
[6:05 PM]
Then on mine scroll down for resolution
Ioreth09/20/2020
my laptop is 1920x something my external is like 3300x something if
I play on the external I need a magnifying glass as it won't do any
wider than 1920
Varda09/20/2020
eww the squintiness
Ioreth09/20/2020
I suppose I need to buy all these expansions or if I just do
monthly does it include the matterial?
Varda09/20/2020
Expansions are a buy
[6:14 PM]
Sub gets everything in them
Ioreth09/20/2020
Looks like I'm three behind.
[6:14 PM]
so if I'm sub I'm good?
Varda09/20/2020
sub helps a lot
[6:21 PM]
ah, saw you going off. Sorry to have missed you.
[6:21 PM]
Promoted you so you can go to the kin house at will
Ioreth09/20/2020
working on the monitor thing. it is so uncomfortable in tiny mode
Varda09/20/2020
Aiya Eonwe. : )
Eonwë Valar09/20/2020
Sub does not get you the expansions, if that's what you mean.
[6:21 PM]
And heya all.
Varda09/20/2020
Sub is not the same as expansions, which are big additional areas.
Ioreth09/20/2020
is there a particular one I should start with?
Eonwë Valar09/20/2020
Are they offering you all of them at once?
[6:23 PM]
If memory serves, sub gets you access to the zones and maybe the
ability to level, but not to the quests, instances, etc.
[6:24 PM]
It's been a while, so I'm not 100% on that though.
Varda09/20/2020
A sub gets all that is inside that expansion that you have
Ioreth09/20/2020
no, they are like 2500 coin each, so it would be at least 7500 coin
to get caught up
Eonwë Valar09/20/2020
I mean, do you see them each in your list, or is it just showing you
one expansion?
Ioreth09/20/2020
I looked on the store
Eonwë Valar09/20/2020
Aye, the one inside the game, since you said points, correct?
Ioreth09/20/2020
was three expansions, I think one quest set, and a couple other less
expensive things
Eonwë Valar09/20/2020
Does it show you all three expansions in the list to purchase, or
just one of the three you're behind?
[6:28 PM]
Ok.
Varda09/20/2020
Does not show it if you have it
Ioreth09/20/2020
I could buy all three, wasn't sure what order they come in. I think
Mordor remake is most recent
Eonwë Valar09/20/2020
Minas Ithil is the most recent.
Ioreth09/20/2020
No use getting that one until doing the one that I left off at
Eonwë Valar09/20/2020
Aye.
[6:32 PM]
I don't think I've ever been more than a single expansion behind, so
I wasn't sure if it showed all the ones you're missing at once, or
just one at a time, with the next one you need being the one shown.
Ioreth09/20/2020
I'm behind 3, just been puttering around on my level 95 hunter - and
dying quite often
Eonwë Valar09/20/2020
I know how that is, heh.
Ar-Pharazon-V09/20/2020
Right, after playing 2 hours of this flashgame... time to do the
gaming report
Varda09/20/2020
I'll mention that Arien and I creamed that instance together.
Ar-Pharazon-V09/20/2020
Yay!

is the first game! A sort of sandboxy game which is all about
leveling up, exploring, acquiring abilities and doing as much as
possible within the space of a day; on subsequent days experience is
reset but more easily gained, and eventually you'll explore your way
to the end of the game

Based on games like Infectonator and Necronator from the same
creator, it's a strategy game where you keep spawning troops and
heroes with generated gold to conquer all the buildings in each map.

You can upgrade troops, heroes, support attacks, and your economy by
medals you get from completing objectives.

And the troops get experience too, up to level 3.
[8:58 PM]
The story in this one is more complex than in the other games, about
a hypothetical extension of the second world war as a relic of great
power is found by the Germans, allowing them to start their
offensive once again.

is the third game, a fantasy fighting game where you fight your way
through levels against various enemies of random types, you can
spend reward money from each area you travel through to buy upgrades
and fighting moves.
Kongregate
Warlords: Heroes
Fight your way through 4 episodes of fantasy
battle. Buying fighting moves, amour and hiring henchman to assist
you on your journey.
Features:
- A game based...
[9:00 PM]
Can be a bit complex, and the survival and gladiator modes are quite
luck based.. took me many attempts to get the badge for 25 kills in
a single survival run.
[9:00 PM]
But the campaign's pretty good
top
[9:01 PM]
Heroes of the Storm:
Level 428 now, after getting Stitches to level 5. It's quite relaxed
without the pressure of brawls every week
[9:03 PM]
Hearthstone:
No new levels there, but the brawl's pretty fun, with random cards
which change their prices randomly every turn.
[9:04 PM]
Did pretty well with the Demon Hunter, opening up with some high
cost cards and playing them as soon as they were manageable
[9:04 PM]
WoW:
We got Mythic Jaina down! Mythic mount for 2 people, unfortunately
not me
[9:05 PM]
Turns out that if you outgear the fight, and get phase 1 under
control, you can skip the rest of the fight by extending the
intermission infinitely, killing her while she's blizzarding people,
as long as you have the aoe to free everyone as they get frozen
again and again.
[9:06 PM]
So we'll use that to hopefully get 2 more shots at the mount
[9:06 PM]
Corruption resistance was indeed capped, so no need for visions
anymore.
[9:10 PM]
Weekly quest is 4 mythic dungeons, easily done... ended up doing
Motherlode without a healer, which went well enough
[9:11 PM]
And I completed the Mechagon questline to unlock the world quests
and dailies, and launched straight into it!
[9:11 PM]
It started by getting a pet from a rare, Bonebiter, yay
[9:12 PM]
And I got the blueprint to make a Mechanocat mount, which required a
lot of crates of spare parts, but luckily I had them.
[9:12 PM]
So new mount also!
[9:13 PM]
And finally I got Mechagon to revered, unlocking Pathfinder, getting
flight unlocked, giving me a free mechanical parrot mount called
Wonderwing, and allowing me to buy 3 gryphons from Kul Tiras
factions
[9:14 PM]
That's my pre-patch goals complete, now I'll use my flight to
continue to do dailies and world quests in Mechagon (and a few in
Nazjatar) to get to exalted and unlock the mechagnome race
[9:14 PM]
As well as maybe doing some more questing campaigns if I have time,
such as Nazjatar and the War Campaign conclusion.
[9:15 PM]
And with that all done, bring on Shadowlands
[9:15 PM]
that's my report for the week!
[9:19 PM]
namarie!

RE: Phar's quoting the Sil about
Ungoliant a couple of weeks ago, which if I did it right, can be
found here: https://discordapp.com/channels/98166064545804288/98425690877104128/754816266476453912

"...and fleeing from the north she went down into
Beleriand, and dwelt beneath Ered Gorgoroth, in that dark valley
that was after called Nan Dungortheb, the Valley of Dreadful
Death, because of the horror that she bred there. For other foul
creatures of spider form had dwelt there since the days of the
delving of Angband, and she mated with them, and devoured them;
and even after Ungoliant her self departed, and went whither she
would into the forgotten south of the world, her offspring abode
there and wove their hideous webs..." -- "Of the Flight of the
Noldor"
[5:49 AM]
Quoted in part by Varda at the time, but there's the full quote, so
whichever reading of "passed away" one wants to read of Phar's
quote, they were there when she left, and she did leave before her
own death.
[5:52 AM]
Was reading that area of the Sil for reasons, so thought I'd throw
it in here.
