Heroic - $39.99/£23

Think that's about right if you purchase in $. May try in the next hour or so.

A quid or so out on the two cheaper ones £18/24, but yeah, not a bad deal. Though I can't for the life of me remember how much Mirkwood or Moria cost its been so long?
I'm going for the middle one just as £6 more gets you £10's worth of points so why not. Not entirely sure why I'm buying it, I've not finished mirkwood, infact since finishing up Moria with a couple alt's and not even finishing the book's in Moria and only part of mirkwood I just lost all enthusiasm for it.
Original was great, it didn't feel overly grindy, get to the end with great content start to finish, great book content, then raid or not, up to you. Moria and mirkwood, Moria was great, atmospheric, some great book content and some great locations but they added so much grind, legendary weapons, then you had mirkwood, skirmishes, just felt like more and more and more grind. Trying to get high up relics was insanely dull, after a week of grinding skirmishes on one alt I started on another played a day and have basically given up now.
Though I hear there is either already, or will be soon a relic +25% critical scroll or something, as long as its not painfully expensive or lasts stupidly small amount of time that might make that little thing bearable.
Have there been any major updates in the past, 6 months or so, new area's or major updates I've missed?

Anyone know if you get an email saying if your points have moved over?
Its the only reason ive not logged on yet
Yeah the 25% seems nicei take it that's just until the expansion is out and not forever?
I moved across last night, very easy process, took 10min max. In my confirmation email, it was confirmed that my points were moved across, 4000 points.
So I can say yes, your points do move across.

It was the emails saying to move over that i felt i should start again
Edit

No worriers mate. Not sure if I will go back, just too much going on. I didn’t want to lose my toons just in case I do. It is a solid game!
Rift is keeping me busy. I was watching the live feeds from the E3 show last night and my views on SWTOR has changed a lot, it’s looking very good! Plus I have a little one due in August.
As I said I'm not playing LOTRO anymore, but I'm sure you use the same client? Not sure to be honest, maybe you dont!
cheers..
If my leaky memory serves me they were £19.99 each for the basic editions and maybe £39.99 for collectors. Pretty much the same really this time around though I think you get a little more bang from the higher tiers than the earlier releases.

Not so sure, its feeling a little Orange box to me, want the ultimate top tier pack, and you get a bunch ofquest packs 99% of people should already have?
The top pack should frankly be a VIP only pack and have at least one exclusive item thats, errm, worthwhile in some way. Even if its something like a few free relic/deed scrolls or something. quest packs I already have, woooo, not.
The 1k points in the middle pack make it ok value over the low pack but theres really such little difference between them. Then maybe people are really spending a lot of points on cosmetic crap these days.

I stopped playing as I got bored of the rep grind in the new area (can't remember the name lol) but I have a lifetime sub so will likely head back once I've finished with Rift - which will be quite soon in all likelihood. Are you sure re the xp boost? Says it lasts until 65 on the promo? Is there small print that is small somewhere
When your in game you get a Derud's Stone which says when hover over.
25% xp gain
Max level 65
Bound - Pocket
& when its applied you get the ^ arrow thing like you do with xp weekends and it says
Grants a bonus of xp gained from defeating monsters UNTILL the release of insengard
So even the 25% xp is a lie!?
VERY misleading indeed imo feel conned :/

Hopefully if enough people kick up a fuss they'll just keep it in the game. I'm not too fussed. Paid £23 for mine and I think I shelled out £15-20 for Mirkwood.
They might have made an error with the item description in game I'll wait until Isen to see if it disappears. I'd have thought that if it were to disappear, a temporary buff would have been better.
