Book 12: The Ashen Wastes
The upcoming patch for LOTRO Book 12, will see changes to the Guardian and Burglar classes (a revamp as stated in one of the links below). Guardians will gain a new stance where they can do more damage and so making soloing a somewhat less painful experience ;).
There will be a new feature regarding sets of armor / clothes. You will on have two sets, one for looks and one for stats, so your minstrel doesn't have to wear the goofy hat, just because the stats are great. You can equip that hat in your stats set. but wear a much better looking one in your 'looks' set. EQ2 has recently adapted this feature and it's a very nice one I think.
UPDATE :
Massively.com published a great tour around Publish 12 at their site, there is a gallery, a write-up and seven videos worth of preview material !
