The Lord of the Rings Online: Return to Carn Dûm Update Brings New Challenges and Adventures

The Lord of the Rings Online has just released its latest update, “Return to Carn Dûm,” on Wednesday, March 22nd, 2023. The update includes exciting new content that will take players on a journey through re-imagined Carn Dûm, where they will fight against the Iron Crown and its minions.

One of the highlights of the update is the Angmar Reborn: Carn Dûm feature. The last remnants of the Iron Crown have returned to Carn Dûm, and players must aid the Hill-men of the North and their allies in their fight to cast off the Iron Crown once and for all. The update features three new instances, and soon a new raid, for Level 140 players.

To participate in the fight against the Iron Crown, players should travel to Bail Avarc in Angmar. Although the location can initially only be accessed via stable-master routes, other options for swift travel are available for barter from the Stewards of the Iron-home.

The update also includes new content for players to explore in the Last Homely House in Rivendell. The Last Homely House has undergone a beautiful makeover, which players will surely appreciate.

The new instances include Sant Lhoer, the Poison Gardens, and Thaurisgar, the Vile Apothecary, both available for tiers 1-3. The Sagroth, Lair of Vermin, is a fellowship instance available for tiers 1-3. Additionally, the update promises a new raid, Gwathrenost, the Witch-king’s Citadel, which will be available soon.
