Book 3, Chapter 5, Part II of III
When I logged back into LotRO for the first time in a long time, I remembered one of the main reasons I stopped playing: On the outside looking in... It was Book 3, Chapter 5, Part II of III. I’ve probably been stuck on that quest for well over a year. It says you can do it solo, but I was facerolled every time. Lies! The Elf-stone's inspiration is no help at all.

On the outside looking in...
It was Book 3, Chapter 5, Part II of III. I’ve probably been stuck on that quest for well over a year. It says you can do it solo, but I was facerolled every time.
Lies! The Elf-stone's inspiration is no help at all.
I finally went out to YouTube and found a video of someone soloing it. In the video, the guy hit the Elf-stone like I always do, then he moved forward a little bit, and then suddenly his health and mana quadrupled! What de hell! Mine never did that!
Next time I logged in, I did exactly what I saw in the video. Stand where it says “this is a good place to use the stone.” Hit the Elf-stone. Your guy kneels for a second but nothing seems to happen. Then I moved forward a little bit until it says “this is NOT a good place to use the stone.” Then, magically for no apparent reason, my health zoomed way up like I saw in the video. Then I had no trouble with any of the elite mobs.
Take that you vile vicious Tarkrip.
Of course, I went the wrong way and my health dropped back down and I got killed. I revived myself and ran back outside so I could do the Elf-stone again, except that when I tried it, following the exact same steps, it didn’t work. Ugh. What a super annoying quest.
The next time I logged in, I finally did it!
Standing victorious over my nemesis's corpse.
Celebration!
Woohoo! Success at last!
