Single-use Recipes

Ability to learn single-use recipes multiple times and it would just add to the number of uses we had left. [Suggested by Noctavia]

Additional Hobbies

Countless have been suggested on the LOTRO Forums. My favorites:

Archaeology (Digging for relics from earlier ages)

Book Collecting (Finding books around Middle-earth)

Butterfly Collecting (Collecting butterflies and trophies of them)

Cartography (Mapping MIddle-earth. Perhaps as a percentage of areas you have uncovered per zone).

Herbalism (Collecting herbs and plants for your garden)

Mushroom Spotting (Yay!)

Sculpting (Making sculptures out of wood/ore)

Music Theory (Learning different songs that you can then play with a command)

Treasure Hunting (or Coin Collecting)

Brewing/Winemaking (remove brewing from Cooks and make it a hobby)

Mistletoe Back

The Mistletoe housing decoration was once available in the game and we would like it back!

Housing Market

A Market similar to Lalia’s Market, but with housing decorations.

Bound to Account Decorations

Many of the housing items are Bound on Acquire, such as the Store Property Guards and quest rewards, which could easily be Bound to Account in stead.

Housing Stable

Stable decoration for your homestead house. Preferably where you can actually place your mount in.

BoAcc Items in House Chests

Ability to place Bound on Account items in house chests. [Suggested by Lal]
Implemented! (Helm’s Deep Expansion 2013)

Crafting Areas in Homesteads

I would like to see some crafting areas in the Homesteads. [Suggested by Celkat]

More Best Housing Events

After the reset/foreclosure of housing areas and after the update, we would like to see more ‘Best House in the Neighborhood’ events.

Mini Hooks for Surfaces

Eg a table with mini hooks for items like books or gems so that my housing environment becomes more vivid & related to my char’s activities. [Suggested by Eleni]

Wardrobe in House

How about a wardrobe (furniture in house), so we can store clothes in it. It works quite well in the real world why not in LOTRO? [Suggested by TSU]

Housing Pets

An item like a fish or dog bone that spawns a household pet! [Suggested by Ritelgold] (perhaps similar to the Pesky Dormouse?)

Mail Permission

Ability to set who can use the mailbox in permissions. [From LOTRO Forums]

Kinship Neighborhood

Ability for a kinship to buy a complete neighborhood and then assign houses. [From LOTRO Forums]

Homestead Quests

Ex: Quick Post, Horse race, Plant trees, Visit your kin hall, etc.

Deeds

Ex: Visit each plot in your neighbourhood, Get x number of visitors, Add x number of unique trophies to house, Use transportation kegs x times, etc.

Homestead Games

Such as implementing the tag game from Bree fields to the homestead, or a hide-and-seek game, chicken play (A Game of Hobnanigans). Festival-inspired games would be fun all-year in the Homesteads.

Guestbook

Make it possible for visitors to write a note in a guestbook - alternatively just to sign their name

Visitor Counter

Could be combined with Guestbook

Wall of Accomplishments

A plaque on the wall that, when clicked, shows the number of deeds/quests/titles or similar accomplished by the owner. Should be customizable which part/char you would like to show.

War-steed Outfits for Reputation Mounts

As the title says: Corresponding War-steed outfits for reputation mounts.

Swift Routes

We would like swift Routes to Hobbiton, Stock and the Forsaken Inn!

Post Marks

Mail comes with postmarks (to show us what town it was sent from). [Suggested by Kazren]

More Objects in Mail

Mail holds more than one object at a time. [Suggested by Kazren]

Temporary Server Travel

It’d be cool if you could have a travel option. Like, only your toon and maybe 1 bag travel with you to another server temporarily. [Suggested by Avadal]

Fiddles

At the very least, LOTRO needs a fiddle! [Suggested by Lina]

I’d love a Nyckelharpa or Hardanger fiddle instrument to play! These instruments are notoriously difficult to sample, due to their sympathetic strings, but I bet a brilliant sound engineer could do it and adapt it for LOTRO. [Suggested by Fredelas]

New Instrument Samples

LOTRO’s current music instruments are out of tune with each other (and sometimes with themselves, when comparing low to high registers). New instrument samples would be a grand enhancement for the music scene! [Suggested by Lina]

Harmonicas

I’d like to see the harmonica (mouth version) in game.

Hand Claps

Hand claps that can be programmed in ABC files for use in songs. I can’t think how it might become an ‘instrument’ to equip, but it could be another skill that all classes have along with lute. [Suggested by Lasswen]

More Legendary Vendors

Legendary vendors in more main hubs like Esteldin (because we are there so often crafting), Gath Forthnir (we get sent there several times in Epic lines), and most importantly, in our housing areas! Alternatively in all Skirmish Camps. [Suggested by Celkat]

Disable Tasks in Quest Tracker

Ability in options to disable tasks from being added to the Quest Tracker.

Ranger Quests

The Ranger quests that used to be during welcome back weeks were fun. Please bring them back.

Mapmaker in Lalia’s Market

Mapmaker who sells maps for Mithril Coins (like the ones you buy in the LOTRO Store). [From LOTRO Forums]

Task Items

Make the remaining trash items into task items and implement task boards in the zones that miss them (Lothlórien, Mirkwood, Enedwaith).

Lootbox Content

Change loot-tables of lootboxes more often.

Single-click Reputation Stacks

Ability to use a full stack of reputation items in stead of having to click through all of them.

Multi-using IXP runes

Ability to use stacks of IXP runes for a combined IXP addition in stead of one-by-one.

Button to clear search/filter fields in AH window. [From LOTRO Forums]

Cosmetic Pets

You can buy (or be taught by an LM) to summon your own cosmetic pet. [From LOTRO Forums]

More Kinship Leaders

More leaders! We think there should be a triumvirate at the helm, either a leader and two deputies, or three leaders of equal standing. [Suggested by Saedhillian, Eagles of Thorondor]

Kinship Badges of Honour

One of our kin is amazing at helping the rest of us level up, protecting us in tough quests and generally being an awesome guy. He deserves his heroism to be recognised, so it would be cool to have a system that allows that. [Suggested by Saedhillian, Eagles of Thorondor]
