I don’t even feel like it has any good stories there whatsoever, which might’ve bumped it up a ranking or two. It’s a depressing region with a shrill soundtrack, hard-to-navigate regions, and deeds that laugh in the face of your optimism. Angmar is, by far, one of the worst zones in the game, both by atmosphere and by design. I think that the “worst” and “best” of this list are the obvious picks for many in the community, and I don’t see a reason to go against that. I will note that I’m not going to include Ettenmoors on this list, as it’s not a PvE leveling zone and, as such, I don’t really care about it.
Play LOTRO for freeSo in a similar fashion to how I ranked all of LOTRO’s expansions to date, today I want to organize a worst-to-best list of Eriador’s 15 (!) zones with my personal observations on what makes them work and what makes them stink.
