Lord of the Rings Online: As the coming launch of Mines of Moria Expansion for Lord of the Rings Online, Turbine has outcomed an post which has the sheer depth of exploration on the new posted a new dev diary which looks at the new Legendary Item System coming in the Mines of Moria Expansion for Lord of the Rings Online.

Hello there! This is Chris “Hakai” Clay, and I have the pleasure of introducing you to the Legendary Item system.

When Bilbo set out from Bag End, he was but a simple Hobbit with potential. There was no aura of legend surrounding him, yet through his actions and deeds he became a legend of Middle-earth. The Legendary Item system works in much the same way. Each Legendary Item contains the possibility of greatness. While they’re typically less impressive than comparable items of their initial level, they have the potential to grow into the most powerful items in the game. The power of your Legendary Items will depend greatly on the effort you put into them and the story you build around them.

Legendary Items contain more components than any other type of item in The Lord of the Rings Online™: Mines of Moria™. These components (and the multitude of ways in which they interact) allow the players to find and customize unique items that may never be duplicated. In this developer diary, we’ll be going over the various elements that make up a Legendary Item, some of the history behind their development, and the rules that surround them.
