Inspects
Hello, and thank you for all your edits. I noticed that you updated many Eriador Roving Threat inspects to what you called 'max level', which is true now since level 140 is max level at the moment. That is actually not preferred. The Roving Threats are level 100 and therefore a level 100 inspect is most preferable. We try to get an inspect level as close to the level of the creature as possible. Since most of them had other edits and since you added other good contributions since the level 100 inspects were on the pages, I won't roll back the edits but just pull the data from the last known level 100 inspects.
There is a slight caveat to this, at least for me personally: if the health on the creature needed to be updated (they changed all health pools on mobs in 2018 or 2019 iirc), if there is any change to the inspect as well, like all mits being Fair previously but one of my higher level inspects showing one being Poor and the others Feeble, I will sometimes replace the inspect since it's possible the mits were changed as well in the interim. Otherwise it's best to leave on level inspection information. Use your judgement, in other words!
The on level inspects are what we aim for because they are most useful for any players on level with the creature or quest. ~ Ruby (talk) 18:58, 11 August 2022 (UTC)
- EDIT: Sorry if I came off as too short in my earlier comment, I wasn't in a great mood. What I really needed to say was this: It's always helpful to have an inspect of any level if the creature is missing the information! A higher level inspect is better than no inspect at all. So thank you for adding what was missing. However, when there is on-level inspect information already there, it's best to leave it for reasons already mentioned. Thanks again for your contributions. ~ Ruby (talk) 03:40, 12 August 2022 (UTC)
- Update: I'm not going to reread my cringe-worthy comment above but I wanted to let you know that I did revert back (my reversions---we could get almost recursive here) almost all your RT inspections so that they have your more recent ones. The only one I didn't revert had an inspection in 2020 at closer level so I figured it was fine. You know, part of my problem is a part of my brain said to me '2016 wasn't very long ago!' when I was checking history. In retrospect it kinda was/is. ~ Ruby (talk) 21:15, 11 September 2022 (UTC)
Wildermore Hidden Cave
Hello Galbus!
I can confirm that the characters you just noted in the Hidden Cave in Wildermore are indeed there. Two of them only appear after a certain quest is done, but I recently uploaded versions of all three characters to the wiki, two of them just need pages to call home. :) —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Sinordloresearcher (Contribs • User Talk) at 02:28, 15 February 2023.
Hidden Deed
Hi there, on this overview https://lotro-wiki.com/index.php/Eryn_Lasgalen_and_the_Dale-lands_Deeds i changed the type of a deed from "Hidden" to "Hobby" (what technically makes sense) and you corrected it to "Explorer" (what also makes sense). Playing a bit further i realised that we were both wrong: it is not in the "Hobby" deed page nor in the "Explorer" meta deed - it really is hidden until completed, then it appears in the regional deed page. Former wiki contributors labeled this deed correctly and put them in the proper category "Hidden deeds", so i reverted both your and my changes. --Dathor (talk) 15:45, 23 September 2023 (UTC)
