If you’re an avid Lord of the Rings Online player, you probably already have the Mines of Moria expansion pack that debuted recently. The expansion brings a lot of new material to the table aside from just a fresh environment to play in. The new Legendary Weapon system and enemies should be enough to keep MMO vets plugging away. But for those interested in a fresh start, there are two new character classes – the Rune Keeper and Warden.
The above trailer is for the Warden class. He’s brawler, who relies on his usage of combinations to take down larger opponents. The Warden wears medium-armor and was created for those who wanted tanking ability, but at the same time, a bit of agility. The combinations the Warden can use stem from the “gambit” system, which is a series of attacks that can be combined into a larger special attack. These are timed attacks as well, which adds a bit of a strategy element to the fight.
The Runekeeper, the other class, also has a trailer you can view after the break. The Runekeeper is a true magic user that utilizes spells akin to “the power of nature.” The class can’t cast Magic Missile – a spell that revolutionized my youth.

No offense to LOTRO players, it might be really great to play for all I know, but that footage was awful.
