While grinding out the quests in S. Mirkwood (how similar in pattern they are to those in Eregion) I’ve taken a break to try out two new-for-me classes: Captain and Rune-keeper. On the whole, I am enjoying both classes and the contrast they make to my main.
Hitherto I’ve only played tank roles. Captain’s support and jack-of-all-trades role is rewarding, and Rune-keeper’s instant death strikes are, well, more satisfying than I realized.
This post’s title refers to the huge change in sound and visuals that come with Captain and Rune-keeper. Man, can my man Calenbor shout! And—BZZT-ZAP!—there is no special effect too campy for Figgalin. Stones for everyone.
I too love the Captain and the Rune-Keeper. I find that I can get through pretty much anything with the captain, and I really enjoy it for farming materials for crafting. You can send your herald (I call mine Harold) to attack an enemy and grab the resource, then join in the attack.
I like that, with the rune-keeper, you can through down a rune stone at the start of the fight for some HOT, and then blast away!

yeah, captain’s can be loud at times. Gets to be a bit rough with multiple cappies, and dwarven champ, and a warden
