- If you’re already a VIP, it will be appended to the end of your current VIP term, pushing out your next billing date by 30 days.
- Am I allowed to give my VIP code to a friend?
- Yes. Make sure you are giving them the VIP code and not your Expansion code by mistake!
- When and how do I get my Expansion bonus items?
- Expansion bonus items will arrive on Mordor launch day after the game worlds re-open and your game client has updated with the Mordor content.
- If I don’t pre-purchase the expansion, can I still buy the expansion bonus items at a later time?
- At this time, the Standard Edition, Collector’s Edition, and Ultimate Fan Bundle will remain available after Mordor’s launch day.
- While the expansions will still be available in the LOTRO Market, please note that you will be unable to purchase the additional exclusive items through the LOTRO Store for store points.
- How many Aria of the Valars will I get with my Expansion purchase?
- On Mordor launch day, you will receive one Aria of the Valar for your account on the first character that you log into. The Aria of the Valar is bound to account. Once opened, it binds to character.

Aria of the Valar
- Vastin
- https://forums-old.lotro.com/forums/showthread.php?&postid=7741913#post7741913
- I believe it will be available in the store, though I don't know the details on pricing or dates of availability.
- The package itself is very similar to the previous Valar package, but it's updated to level 105, with new teleport destinations putting you on the border of Mordor and has a full outfit of level 105 appropriate gear that is sufficient for a player to engage immediately with Mordor content.
Miscellaneous
- The warsteed cosmetic bundles will be included with the Ultimate Fan Bundle.
- For those who are Lifetime account holders, the VIP codes from the Ultimate Fan Bundle can be given to someone to use. They are NOT bound to your account.
- The 10 slot expansion for Shared Storage will be in addition to the current maximum (currently 270).
- There will not be any LOTRO points included with the expansion, however, there are plans for double bonus LOTRO Points in the future.
- The Ultimate Fan Bundle does include 500 LP, through the Game Time VIP code. (A code for a month of VIP Access)
- The Mordor expansion purchase does include the Group Content - Instance and Raid Cluster - update coming after release of Update 21.
- Mordor releases on Cordovan's birthday - also Harry Potter's birthday.
- The High Elf is not integrated into the concept of Mordor -- simply another race like the Beorning.
