Category:World instances

From Lotro-Wiki.com

World instances are not found as often in LOTRO as quest instances, and always require a full fellowship if everyone is within the recommended level. They have many quests that lead within, can be completed and repeated, and contain boss encounters that generally drop rare quality and better loot.
