Welcome!

We at Lotro-Wiki would like to welcome all new contributors!
Lotro-Wiki is where we would like to create a place for those dedicated to helping others in the game and who want to participate in making this a haven for anyone who is lost or seeking knowledge about LOTRO.
Our mission is to create a site that is both informative and pleasing to the eye. We take pride in our work and hope that all who join us in this endeavor feel the same. To find out how you can help us, check out our Help page.

Communication

Discord (Preferred place of communication)

Use the Lotro-Wiki Chat on Discord:
Note: Please make sure to set your nickname on the Discord server (right click name and select change nickname) to what you use on the wiki! It helps everyone know who you are by association!
The Discord app is available as a download from Discord. You can use the application on your desktop, tablet or cell, or access the Discord server directly from your browser window.
Discord acts as both chat service as well as voice chat, plus it's free!
