LOTRO: Before the shadow
Mechanics update: Storm on methedras
Gate 1: Rhodri/Budant/Maru Brenin/Garzog
Self-heal and AoE DoT through the boss and trash spawns of this fight for best efficiency.
Stand at the gate and lure the spawns to the rock so they don't kill Saeradan.
​
Gate 2: Caur/Helechúl/Daeharn/Dombor & Núrvor
This is a random spawn out of these 4 possible bosses. Saeradan must survive. There will also be some trash mobs hidden behind the trees that you need to clear to pass this phase.
​
Final Boss: Echrud the fire drake, then Gwyllion
The drake will use AoE ranged fire attack and it may splash onto the drummers or Saeradan. Focus on the drake or shield/heal Saeradan if he takes fire damage. After the drake is down, Gwyllion becomes attackable.
Alert: do not wait for instance queue when farming
Stand at Amon Sûl
​
While farming basic crafting resources are a decent and stable way to profit, there are resources that must be exchanged at the Skirmish Camp with skirmish and instance currencies.
These resources are not gatherable and are often in short supply because of the relative difficulty of completing endgame raids. The game itself is not too complicated, but it's getting harder these days to find enough players to form a static group to farm skraids due to different time zones.
​
To get around this, you can solo farm raids if you scale down the instance in instance finder and enter as a solo player. Yes, it is possible to solo enter a 3-man, 6-man, 12-man skirmish and tier it up for better rewards.
​
Then you don't have to share your loot with others.
Happy farming! :D
