I was playing in Outer Gondor and went to check the nearby Task Board. I was surprised when it didn't find the nearest board. Upon investigation, I found that none of the boards in King's Gondor and Outer Gondor had been added! I would have expected someone to report this omission before now.

Anyways, the missing boards have been added and some more of the lower-level tasks have had the task levels adjusted. Please report anything that appears to be wrong. With such a huge database it is easy to miss errors.

This is an interim update. It updates a few task levels on regular task boards and many tasks on the housing task boards. However, I don't have enough alts to verify the exact levels in many cases and the test server isn't currently available, so I put in the lower level that I was able to verify but I know many of them will be a bit lower still. So this is a significant improvement in evaluating what can be turned in, but until I can set exact levels to test, you may find some tasks listed on the boards that are reported a bit higher.

The next update is taking longer than expected. As I have been checking the task board level requirements for lower-level characters, I've found many more changes than expected, so I've expanded the level checks to include more boards than just the ones reported and with a broader range of levels.

Vinny

Thanks for the report. I'll try to check those out if I have alts in that range on one of the servers. Otherwise, I'll have to wait for the next beta to step through the earlier levels to see what it should be set to.

One small correction, I found that my lvl26 character can see 4 tasks from Ost Forod: Broken longswords, fine fur, fine skin and new sword sheaths (these do not award reputation).
I turned in fine furs at homesteads successfully. They were probably visible also at 25 but I'm not 100% sure.

Vinny

This is a significant update for characters under 45. After a report of incorrect level requirements in the Trollshaws, I did some extensive checking and found that not only had the requirements changed there but in several other low-level zones. While I was at it, I also fixed levels displayed for Homestead boards. There may still be some tasks with new level requirements, so if you find any, please report them.

For players with several characters that frequently reach the daily task limit, I've added a "/dtp tc" command. This will list all known characters and how many tasks are left to complete (the count comes from the last /dtc command, so it won't be accurate if you don't check before logging out).

Note: I haven't removed /dtm yet while I wait for more feedback.

Does anyone want me to keep the '/dtm' command? I suspect that it is rarely used and I don't plan on expanding the items that the current data covers due to the time it takes.

Getting rid of it and the associated data would reduce the amount of memory used and improve load time, so unless there are requests to keep it, I'll remove it in the next version.

Aw, this would be a real shame!
I don't know about others, but I love the feature and use it extensively. Not having it in Umbar really made me sad and I even went on alts sometimes just so I could relax for half an hour by doing nothing but killing mobs that I knew would get me task items, because of the command.

Thanks for the report. Lotro updates can change these things and not mention them in the release notes, so I don't find out until I notice discrepancies or someone reports it. I'll do some checking with my lower-level characters, but I may not be able to determine the exact new level requirements.

...Upon making detailed checks, I've found that many other low-level tasks have new level requirements, mostly higher. So this is going to take longer to correct than I expected.

Hello
I would like to report that my low level 32 character is not able to turn any tasks in Thorenhad (task board is empty), I had specifically fine furs and fine skins. Also at Barachen camp there are less tasks available, I don't see fine furs there. Same situation in homesteads.
My lvl25 also don't see silky filth or hardened carapace.
All of these are marked as min lvl 22 in plugin.
My level 65 character can see them all.
So while I don't know what level is minimum but level 32 is still too low.
Maybe someone else can also check to confirm or deny

This is the first new set of tasks in nearly a year, however, even though the level 140 characters entering Western King's Gondor can easily kill many mobs which drop new trophies, these will not be able to be turned in to complete tasks until level 145! Also, they will have to travel to Haradwaith locations to find any task boards (they aren't in Homesteads either).

I think I have the new data correct, but it will be a while before I get a character to level 145 to verify it. So I'll be saving my new trophies until then.

Note: I also fixed a couple of naming errors in the prior version.

Vinny

There is a new set of tasks and I think I got them implemented in beta, but I'm still checking for any last-minute changes. In beta, the new task boards weren't usable until level 145 and were only placed in Haradwaith, so I'm taking a day to verify it is still the same. The new trophy comments say they can be turned in in Outer Gondor, so I'm looking for added boards. In beta, there wasn't a new board added to Homesteads, so I'm checking on that also.

Vinny

I haven't seen any task boards in the new zone and it looks like the task items are the same, so nothing to update.

Vinny

All the homestead locations have the same set of task boards so there isn't a listing for each location. This is the reason for the Homestead check box, to indicate that you are at a homestead and completed tasks will show the board # to use to turn it in.

It appears that the Béorthing neighborhood in the Kingstead Meadows Homesteads is not working. DTF won't show any available tasks, and it doesn't appear in the location list.
