Cook and scholar update

It has been a while since the last map update. But with a reason. From now on we will also export a map with the crops and plants. So our cooks and scholars can find their stuff a bit easier.
For now it will only say where stuff can be collected, but not yet for the individual items. So there is not yet a difference between a Tater and an indogo plant. That will be done in the future.
Aside from all of this we went into Lorien and Dunland again, so they are added to the map as well.


New host and downtime

Just to make it a bit short. We moved from hostingservice in the last week. This due to the downtime that we had without an real explanation from our old host.
To prevent more downtime in the future we made the move. So the site is back online and that will hopefully stay so for a long time.

Fibro Jedi is making crafing guides

Getting your resources is one thing. But what do you want to do with them. How does the crafing work in Lotro. For a new player it can be difficult to find the right proffesion or crafing in general.
Fibro Jedi, a fellow Twitch streamer, thought the same about this problem. He is making crafing guides at the moment. His guide starts at the beginning of crafting and explains everything from gathering to processing upto crafting gear.
If you are interested, please visit Fibro Jedi blogsite. Dont forget to leave a comment on his page if you found his guides usefull.

Scholar update

Back in version 10 of our resourcemap we exported our first scholar / artifact map. This time we gave it a huge update for the lower level artifacts. Most of the areas where you travel while doing the Epic quests are plotted.
Also there are updates for the ore and wood plots as normal. We hope that you will have some use of the new map.
