hey devonna,
I currently run a dwarf hunter, at lvl 65. Do you have any ideas for cosmetics, as i have no idea, and i’m new to in-game cosmetics. I currently use dwarf male facial hair no.1 and hair style no. 3, but i can go to the barber
thanks,
Stephenfry of Imladris.
You know, I don’t think I’ve done a Dwarf Hunter outfit yet. I’ll see what I can put together for you
Here you go
“A Dwarven Hunter”
awesome, its perfect ty =D
hi devonna
I’m driving myself mad trying to recreate your gorgeous character screenshots! My shots tend to be blurrier and smaller/further away than yours… I don’t think its my comp (can run max graphics and dx11 happily)… I’ve played around with lighting and angles but just can’t seem to get a nice quality character image :/
any tips please?!
ty if you can
I looked at your Flickr gallery, your images are pretty high quality I thought.
When I take pictures of my characters I try to take them during the day with good weather conditions, (not raining or foggy) I try to find the light, meaning I face my character so the sunlight highlights them the best. For full body shots I scroll my mouse wheel, zooming in, until their feet are at the bottom of my screen but still visible.
Another trick I use sometimes is to stand my character in front of an object (mailbox, light post…) Then I pan the camera till its in front of the object still looking at my character. What this does is to bring my character closer for great up close pictures.
Hope this helps you some
thank you that’s very helpful – I’ll carry on experimenting
I’ve managed to get a good result by taking the screenshots with Dimzad’s dwarf as I can get my character to fill the screen more, but it is a faff (especially finding things for him to stand on to get the angle right, looking-up-the-nose shots aren’t very flattering
)
thanks again
Hi Devonna,
This is Calameril from your kin! I’ve been trying to put together a questing outfit for Cala that has a wood elf vibe, yet still looks caster-y. The fact that she can only wear light armor and my Captain alt is level 31 complicates things. Right now she’s wearing Robe of the Grove (quest reward from the Trollshaws), the Summer Travelling Cloak, and Limdail dyed Sienna (light boots, quest reward from somewhere). It’s an okay outfit, but I’m not really satisfied.
I like the short robe look for a traveling caster, although tunics and trousers are good too. Can you give me some tips?
Hi Calameril! *hugs*
You totally inspired me to make Wood Elf outfits! I know some of those you can’t wear yet but the first one on that post I made with you in mind. The Robe of Viisaus is a quest reward from Book 1 or alternatively you can get the ceremonial version from the store.
I’ve got a few requests. First, I love a lot of the outfits on this site, but they don’t show weapons in the pictures. I know there are some things you can toggle, but I don’t know of a way to toggle weapons without taking them off. I’m an elf hunter and I have a huge crossbow on my back, so quivers are often covered up. I usually don’t wear a cloak either for a similar reason. My outfit is almost all the Yule Fest outfit, but some parts are different. These pics aren’t the most recent (boots changed), but they show how big the crossbow is. http://twitpic.com/5dezwz http://twitpic.com/59qxpf http://twitpic.com/5623lj
This might be your first 5 ring outfit if you can make it. I’m level 65 hunter and want to look stylish while having decent gear. This is because you can’t wear outfits in the Moors. You can still toggle armor, but can’t have anything cosmetic. Currently, I just have my gear dyed forest green. I like standing out in the Moors and don’t want to look like everybody else. This is what I’m currently using http://twitpic.com/5qumct http://twitpic.com/5qum17 I like how the color makes me stand out, but that’s about it.
Thanks for taking the time to read this.
Or more outfits that use the Black Top Hat. I have a friend with the regular brown one, and they made a nice outfit with it. I am looking for something that not many people use, but includes the Top Hat. Thanks again. Just got to Rivendell to check out the quivers
My hubby, Ked spends a lot of time in the Moors. He likes to look good also. The best advice I can give you is what he has done and that is to dye your armour the same color.
Because of family and work we are both pretty casual players. We don’t currently have access to raid gear. Ked’s current equipment is mostly Moria gear. He feels a little squishy at times in the Moors but does alright. Here is what Ked’s equipment looks like.
As for your other two request, give me a few days and I’ll see what I can do about making an outfit a crossbow looks good on and an outfit using a black top hat.
Thank You!
Hi Devonna, nice new website design! Looks very refreshing and cheerful!
Thanks Hymne
I wanted it to be a little whimsical but without being too cutesy or girly. Not 100% sure if the background is right yet. I’ll have to live with it awhile to see if I love it.
Hey Devonna,
I play a level 41 hunter on dwarrowdelf, have been looking for a shady, dark, yet unique outfit. This has been rather difficult, as i am only lvl 40 and do not have access to moria and beyond etc.Could you give me some tips on putting together a dark, shadowy outfit that could be found in eriador by a lvl 41?
Have you had a look at Sneaky Sneak? This might work for you.
Thanks, thats perfect.
Heey Devonna,
Awesome blog you have here, going to check it out every now and then.
Because RoI is coming out, I’ll be leveling my elven Lore-Master to 75, youve got any cool cosmetic ideas?
Cheers!
Glaedr
hey thank you!
I’m heading on vacation this week but I’ll see what I can come up with when I get back.
How about something like this, Gloom-Bane? I think a male elf would look great in it too.
Ehm… a elven MALE LM btw
Hello Devonna.
I am new to lotro
I have in mind trying to give a ringwraith/nazgul style to my character as soon as his level will allow it. Do you have any tips ideas on how to reach this goal?
Thank you.
Welcome to Lotro!
For a Nazgul look I’d check out the Carpenter’s Robe, dyed black, from the Lotro Store. I’d pair it with a dark hooded cloak or a hooded head piece such as the Makeshift Ranger Mask (Skirmish cosmetic) , Traveller’s Hood (Store) or the Raven Festival Mask. (Harvest Festival)
Thanks you for your fast reply. I thought you were on holiday and did not expect it that soon.
I will try it asap, since most pieces are accessible quite easily.
Hi Devonna!
I come to your website here a lot, I love seeing all the outfits you’ve come up with.. I’m a steed collector in game (hence my surname, Rochbaen, or ‘Horserider’) and I would looove to see more steed-related outfits if you ever have time. I think you should do an outfit to match the Algraig Steed, Mathom Steed, and Steed of Bright days. I’ve seen a lot of those around recently!
You betcha! I can definitely do that. Thank you for the suggestion
WOW you work fast! I loooove the new outfit!
Awesome! I am so glad
Hehe, Hi again Mrs. D!
There are four new horses that just got put in the store, as well as the Harvestmath festival coming up. Could you maybe make some outfits for the hardish-to-match Minas Ithil steed, and Steed of Night?
Sorry for all the suggestions, probably my last for awhile, school sucks up energy for imagination LOL
I haven’t decided if I will be purchasing these horses yet. I will continue to make new outfits to match steeds though
Howdy! Still love the site. Have another request. Tomorrow is the 1st sunday of the NFL season and I need to support my team ingame! Looking for a San Francisco 49ers outfit for a Male Elf Hunter. Keep up the good work!
I’m still bitter the 49ers beat my team, the Seahawks *angry face* lol just kidding! I’m sorry I wasn’t able to get this to you before Sunday. I hope you still wore your red and gold colors with pride
I have a red outfit and a gold outfit, so I alternated between the 2. I recently got the last piece of my gold outfit today, so I’ll email a few pictures.
Awesome, I’d love to see them.
I love your work!!! Can you do a minstrel inspired outfit??? That would be awesome!!!
Thank you for saying so
and yes I can work on that for you. Give me a few days. Is this for a female or male Minstrel?
Female!!
Here you go, Travelling Minstrels
Hey I’m Noah and i have a level 65 RK dwarf. and I was wondering if you might be able to find something that could be dyed that would look good on a dwarf RK.
If you could that would be awesome!
thxs
Noah
I can definitely try to put something together for you. Do you have Rise of Isengard by chance?
yes i do
A Wise and Mystical Fellow
thanks very much
Hi again Mrs. D!!
Weell…. There’s that new steed out… And at the moment the maximum ranger-ish outfit I have is just the green RoI armor. Sad day
Could you make an outfit to match the Soth? Possibly with a few varying pieces for unique-ness?
Ruavil
Or… Possibly some more female elven hunter themes?
I love the new steed! Kedwyr had to have it on his hunter. I would love to put together an outfit to match it
Hey devonna (again)
I was wondering if you had anything for a lowbie man minstrel (level 27). I also have a max level hunter and a 40s guardian. I have the green Eorlingas armour from RoI preorder, and not really any turbine points
Thank you very much again,
Stephenfry of Imladris
Do you have access to a wardrobe? If you do this opens up so many outfit possibilities, otherwise we will have to stick to armour you can personally equip. Not impossible just more difficult.
I can get it, yes.
Heya!
First of all, awesome blog. Cosmetics are such an amazing part of LOTRO, and you’ve done an equally amazing job in utilizing them!
I have no idea if you can help me with this or not, but I’ve taken a great liking to a certain cosmetic piece in the game – the Hunter shoulders from Dar Narbagud. Unfortunately, I have no hunter toon, and the only other piece with the same look that I’ve found so far is the Shoulder Guards of the Keen Eye, dropping from certain 75 raid skirmishes. And as a Lore-master, my chances of nabbing those for cosmetics – considering the number of burglars and hunters who are after the 122 agility – are extremely slim.
So, the question is – do you know of any other shoulders with the same cosmetic look? Any help would be greatly appreciated!
- Kemendin of Nimrodel
I’m sorry but those two items you mentioned are the only one I know of
Perhaps as time goes on people won’t need the shoulders as much and they wouldn’t mind you rolling on them for cosmetic purposes.
Hi Devonna,
Love your website/blog and am so glad that you decided to continue to make outfits as I find all of them so interesting. Yet despite all of your great work and advice I still am not able to come up with a look for my new character that I feel really suits them. I have a lv 30 Warden (leveling fast) hailing from Gondor who I really need an outfit for. I rp a lot and so my look is very important to me. Do you have any tips or perhaps even an outfit that would suit a Gondorian Soldier/Tower Guard? Any help would be great!
PS. I do also have a lv 51 mini and access to a wardrobe, if that helps you at all.
- Televir of Landroval
I’ll see what I can do
The Tower Guard I know this requires some items that are higher level than you are now but it’s something to work for a least.
I absolutely love it. If you see a warden or mini wearing exactly this, then you know why.Thank you Devonna, once again you show your brilliance. Keep up the good work
Hi Devonna, i’m 36 Dwarf Guardian and i’m F2P in few days i would get to 42 so i ask of you can you put for me any outfit ‘cous Devender of Blue Mountains (http://lotrostylist.wordpress.com/2011/06/04/defender-of-the-blue-mountains/) is not availabel ‘couse i bought only questpack for Evendim. It’ would be great if you help
. Have a nice day.
Do you have access to a wardrobe?
Not, sadly, by firs time i played i had access but now when Turbine blocked almost evrything i do not have access.
Without a wardrobe it’s tough to put together a good looking heavy armour outfit at that level. A lot of the nicer looking heavy armour become available in your 50s. A couple good options for you is either the Great Burrow Heavy armour set which can be bartered at a “classic” vendor at any skirmish camp or Hauberks are another good option. A lot of the Hauberks in game have a chain mail look to them. You also said you purchased the Evendim quest pack, check out the Guardian barter armour in Tinnudir.
Hi Devonna!I love your outfits!i just wanna know if there is any chance to make a champion & hunter outfit that matches together
me and my friend are pretty low lvl (im 16 he’s 15) but our kinnies are great at getting us some cosmetics from skirmish
i have only evendim quest pack and my captain is lvl 35.I don’t have shared wardrobe…so please can you make a matching outfit for us?we would be very happy!we are both elves and are male =)
Are store items ok to use?
well yes for me but my friend(the champ) is a f2p for now so for him no =P
Hey Devonna I’ve been trying to come up with a good easy to find kinsip uniform for my Kin, The Lonely Mountain Band, In order to contribute to the whole band. I want something that really makes you think of a band without it being too hard to get and level friendly.
Any Thoughts?
What type of band? Marching band, rock band, slasa band ect..
Not really a type of band just a kinship all together with several different bands but something of the time period of a lute, medieval minstrel perhaps.
here is one idea Medieval Minstrels
Loved the Medieval Minstrels idea in fact much of my kinship wore red and white tunics/dresses last year so this may be perfect!
Hay devonna love the site! well i was just wonderin how DO you acktually take photos and stuff? i know how to make everything dissapear(F12) but how do i acktually take the pic? thanks if you reply
just want to take some cool pics of my epic new ranger outfits!
CTRL-P/Print Screen takes your screenshot. They then show up in your “my documents/lord of the rings online” folder
I can take screenshots by pressing F11
Thank you soo much, later on once ive got some good ones ill email them 2 u for u to decide wether or not to use them on the site thnx again devonna!
Hay devonna, i know you LOVE making ranger outfits so i was wonderin if you could make a dark/burglar sorta styled outfit, im a lvl 42 champion and thought something like a “Night Ranger” would be kinda kool, i can wear heavy,mediaum and light and i cant afford to buy store items but i can buy auction house items, i also have all the ROI pre purchase items.
And i have the fellowship quest pack soo those places

Hey devonna!i just wanna ask how do we make a gest submission?i have a captain outfit that should work pretty well on a champion or a guardian.it’s more navy coloured but it’s easy to get(two pieces are from the store) for some low lvls with a lot of turbines

You can email me with (1)your character name and server (2)A front and back screenshot of the outfit (3)What pieces you used and any dye information (4) A little blurb about your outfit.

I love the concept! ftp players will really appreciate the inspiration. I’ve added you to my blogroll
Good Luck

Thank you for your submission.

Hi Devonna,
This is Angdalen of the Guard of the Citadel (RP) Kin on Imladris, this is in reguards to your “Tower Guard” outfit. I was wondering, if you knew of any items slightly easier to get by lower lvls that would be similar to that outfit, chest pieces, shoulders and gloves mostly.
Hi Devonna,
I’m looking forward to dress my lvl56 ((but climbing fast) Hunter as a Galadhrim Guard, thoose who stands by Celeborn. But i’m in troubles regarding the fact that they wear facial mask with a hooded cloak… I think that i could do something really close to my aim when i’ll have access to the tailor receipe in Lothlorien xcept for this mask… Any clue from a great stylist like you are would be much apreciated.
Best Regards
If you have Dunland there is a hooded mask that you can get from several of the quests. Your level is just about ready for them. I went to Dunland at 65. Check out Dunland Marcher’s Leather Helmet. There are several other versions with this graphic also.
Great thanks a lot for this.
But i’ll have to work hard, the galadhrim recipes doesn’t react well to the dye (not as i expected at least), to gather all i need to try to have a similar apearance than Losdirith (or any other white guard of Caras).
Anyway, thanks again, keep up the good work
Hello Devonna, i do have to ask for favour of you, my blog is going well, slow but well
i have about 15 page viewers a day. But it’s not why i’m here, i would like to ask you a favour, could you publish my next outfit and whrite somewhere adress of my blog. If you only could, i think it would be great promotion, for sure from someone well known in LOTR:O world. if you wauld do it, tell me a word and i’ll send you the outfit
. Greetings, Hroldfrik from Imladris.
Send me an outfit at lotrostylist@gmail.com
Hey Devonna, again!
With the release of the superultra awesome Hunger Games… Could you possibly give us a Katniss Everdeen-y outfit? Might be tricky, but it’d be super cool!
Rua
I loved the movie and the books! I could see the pants and boots and even a bow and arrow but for the life of me I’m not sure what to use for her jacket. I’ll give it some thought

Hi Devonna
I am playing a male Minstrel (race of men) on the german server Anduin and I´m searching for a new outfit. I thought you can help me creating an outfit without quest items (I sold them all) but i wish it could include the Lesser Secret of the West Helm (Burglar).
Ok, take your time and I hope you can help me
Hello Mrs. Devonna!
I’ve been banging my head over figuring out an outfit for my Captain, who’s Level 37 at the moment, trying to find a good sort of heavy armor look for him. You don’t need to create a whole outfit for me if you find yourself short on time (you must be rather busy!) but if there are any favorite items of yours for heavy armor, I was hoping I could maybe keep an eye out for them as I work through my questing, or any tips you have as to creating an outfit.
Thanks much for you time!
Eldared of Elendilmir
Nice looking Heavy armour pieces are hard to find before level 50. My favorite would have to be the Heavy armour Great Borrow set which you can find on the classics vendor at any skirmish camp. However if you have access to a wardrobe be sure to check an AH for the crafted level 50+ heavy set, Sellsword’s. Another great option is the Annuminas ceremonial set. You can purchase this set from the Lotro Store or the cosmetic vendor at any skirmish camp. Hope this helps
Hello Devonna!
I am trying to figure out how to make my main, who is a hunter from Rohan, look Rohirric and still have a archer/hunter/ranger look to him. If you can help out in any way it would be greatly appreciated.
P.S. Love the site by the way. It’s gorgeous!
I had Ked help me out with this one. He will have a new outfit up for you shortly to show you what he came up with
Here you go
A Ranger of Rohan
Hey Devonna i currently play a woman warden and i want to ask you if you could make an Eowyn battle armor for a warden.
P.S I love this site! For my captain i already have the grey company outfit
It is very good if you roleplay Aragorn
What a great idea. I will see what i can do
Your outfits are wonderful believe me, so I was wondering….. since I’m to low a level to wear most of your outfits (23 elf male((hunter))) could you maybe mabye make something for around that level?
I have been leveling a hunter lately. She is level 25 atm. It is very challenging to outfit her with only items she can equip at her level. I currently have her wearing the Thornley’s Robe I picked up from a quest in Breeland.
Hi,
I am trying to dye the ceremonial dress purple. I saw someone wearing a green one today. however, when i try to dye it i get back that it can’t affect this target. what am i doing wrong? if someone else can dye theirs green surely i can dye mine purple. this is the one made by a supreme tailor recipe
There are three of these dresses. All are called Ceremonial Dress (confusing I know). They are each colored a different color (White, Green, Blue). They can not be dyed.
Hey there Devonna! I’ve been looking over the site the last couple of days and its inspired me to update my Guardian’s outfit. He’s wore pretty much the same outfit since Shadows of Angmar with a minor change here or there to the helmet and boots. Its inspired me to make a new outfit that looks a little more up to date while not 100% overhauling him. It is rather hard to find a good plate chestpiece after all. When I get finished (nearly there, tweaking the cloak and boots) I’ll post back with some screenshots of him. If you like them, feel free to post them into the gallery. Suggestions for improvement are most welcome as well.
I know what you mean about good plate pieces being hard to find. I’m looking forward to seeing what you created
I tweaked it a bit more and decided instead of going with a cloak, I would go with a backpack. I choose the turtle shell pack from the store.
Head: Helm of Peace
Chest: Stannafl (Protector’s chest piece has the same cosmetic)
Shoulders: Protector’s Shoulder Guards
Gloves: Dragon-Scale Gloves
Leggings: Blademaster’s Leggings
Boots: Forged-Iron Dunlending Boots
Back: Sea-Turtle Pack

Hello Devonna!
I saw al you’re outfits ! Af there realy amazing!
I go some question:
I got a elf Guardian lvl 63.
And I’ve not many Questpacks.
Could you make Outher outfit with à (elfen) ranger?
That the outfit could buy at outfitters.
Because I don’t have any high craft so can’t make that, or have many turbine points to spend.
I can say that this is à amazing site for al lotro-fans!
I’m really glad you enjoy the site.
Yeah!
Have you an idea for an (elven) ranger?
And the items of the outfit could buy, not if you get It from à quest?
You know What i mean?
Because I realy love Rangers!
Hey Devonna, I am looking for a kin outfit that is not really hard to get but still looks nice. I have a lvl 36 Burglar that is going to be the kin leader and the kin is not going to be large like 10 people, the theme I would like is casual adventurer, Thanks.
