Beware Defenders!!!! PDF Print E-mail
Written by Malidor & Lpolp

It is not a hidden fact that Lp and myself have never liked nor trusted the fluffy creatures of MiddleEarth. In a world where anything and everything wants to eat your brains out of your skull, its hard not to be on your guard when it comes to any creature in MiddleEarth. But i was starting to think that i was maybe being a little paranoid. 

And so i enlisted the help of my trusted dwarf friend Lpolp and embarked on a top secret fact finding mission to ascertain if in fact the fluffys were out to get us!

These are our findings:

1. We have been persecuting foxes and bunnys needlessly. They have no agenda other than to live peacefully alongside us in harmony (never can be to careful - still killing them myself...). 

2. However it has now be confirmed and proven that Squirrels, along with the aid scheming badgers have been planning a major attack on the Free Peoples of MiddleEarth!! They have slowly infiltrated every province of MiddleEarth, moving with impunity through our cities and towns. They have been openly spying on our movements and learn our weaknesses. They have been increasing their numbers enormously (bunnies taught them how) and are on the verge of executing their massive attack on the good peoples of MiddleEarth.          

                                    

3. If that wasn't bad enough, we have discovered a plot, that these devious rodents are planning to infultrate and attack other servers and even other MMO's!!! LP managed to sneak Lpninja into one of their training camps and discovered that they are already planning for the release of the much awaited Star Wars Old Republic! Lp managed to take the following screenshot as proof...

                              

4. Now this might come as a shock to all of you but... There are unconfirmed allegations from captured (and tortured) squirrel prisoners that our fearless leader Amo, long known tree-hugger and fluffy animal activist, might be in on it!!!! :-O Watch her carefully!!!!!!!

There is no indication of these vermin being under the influence of the White Hand or Morder. We surmise that they are acting on their own behalf and are persuing their own agendas.

So in closing, i urge... no beg all of you to hunt down and kill every one of this beady-eyed plague before its to late!!! And remember never ever let your guard down!!!!!! Not for a second!!!!!

1: If a change were made to Radiance, which of the following would you recommend? Choose only one.
1- Deed based, similar to Virtues/Traits.

2- Temporary Buff, similar to Hope Tokens
3- Remove it entirely.
4- A Stat, similar to DPS, on Legendary Items
5- A relic that can be added to a Legendary Item, similar to Runes, gems, etc.
6- Leave it alone, it's fine as it is.

2: If you could design an all new festival reward, what would it be?

3: Name something in game that you consider a personal goal (Example: Getting all 9 classes to 65). Have you achieved it? If not, why?
