Author: Marius (Bucharest, Romania), 14-01-2019 21:19 stuck - The Lord of the Rings Classic Adventure Story I need 13 magic elementals or dark blue keymaster tent or to win the race. How can I get magic elementals? Or how do I get to the dark blue keymaster tent? I tried with legolas equiped with boots of levitation...couldn& #039;t reach it. What is that race? The path to Ar-Phazon is blocked by a rock between red and blue border gate... :( help!

Win race - The Lord of the Rings Classic Adventure Story
First you must win the race to get Ladybird of luck. After that with Ladybird open quest gate and visit Darkblue keymaster (behind troll bridge). After that you go in southeast region and you will find 13 magic elemental to open quest gate

These is a flaw is the map, instead of racing, I simply killed tan player with Orb of Vulnerability blinding the black dragons constantly. It also allows you to recruit 4000 chaos hydras.

I know but i did check the map with editor and it clearly shows that parts of the map are blocked which arent supposed to. still would be fun to know what is supposed to happen on the part where they go through the one way portal so i could understand what is messed up.
also sod maps should work exactly the same on hota since theres nothing that change about the normal events and walk paths.

Gollum will instantly attack or just stand waiting until he can attack and that also gets stuck. screenshot from map editor passability hex screens:

re - The Lord of the Rings Classic Adventure Story
Не до края всичко е 6, няма никакви бъгове. Картата е 6, разбира се :)
Единствено като 2 дребни препоръки: 1. Мисля, че има 8 сфери, защото 7та сфера я взех много преди тази до водовъртеж а при черната палатка, и така преди Minas Morgul бях със зверската армия.
Според мен, седмата свера е най-добре да седи в Black Riders, така че да има смисъл от големият бонус едва преди Sauron 2. Можеш да сложиш нещо пред последният розов замък, така че да не се достъпва, защото с DD се достъпва от дясно. Това ако случайно някой е загубил прътена, да му е тежък урок :)))
Мерси пак за яката карта, ще чакам с нетърпение още нещо от теб :)

I would like to know is it more challenging than 3.2? I really enjoy the previous version of this map, but almost all battle are too easy:/
If not, pls dear mapmaker create an ultimate version with increased battle difficulty:)
Or i hope Valery give a chance to this map to make it perfect:)
All in all i really happy with the new updates and i'll try it soon:)

First you have to take hourglass of evil hour with boat. Move Legolas to stable. Equip Legolas with boots of speed at the end of day. Let Legolas have fastes unit during night (move some another hero to have slow unit during night). At start of new day equip Legolas with boot of levitatation, get sharps and enchanters and levitate to place where Hourglass was. If neccesarry level up Legolas visiting Tree of knowledge.

Author: vallex (Bulgaria), 06-01-2019 01:22 Archery... - The Lord of the Rings Classic Adventure Story Heh, thanks!
At the beginning, when I started version 4, I gave Aragorn an Archery speciality (Orrin), and Arwen - sharpshooters, but the game became very easy. When Aragorn's level rise, shooters become deadly and no army can stop them. And In a few months the player stops collecting armies from the towns. However, it is possible to upload this version of the map.
By the way, did you find the hidden town called Explorer? I wonder if anyone will reach this place...

LoTR 3.2 was Epic, did not think there would be a much better one, also you should "fix" 2 things, 1) Add Saruman's artifacts in Heroes Vault 2) I think Aragorn should have Archery specialty and make Elrond and give him sharpshooter specialty, overall 10/10 without a doubt!!!
