The folks at Killer Guides have now published their first LotRO guides - and those things pretty much outshine everything else currently available.

Current highlight is probably the LotRO gold-making guide that includes some pretty impressive feats and tricks which I found goes much further than the usual newbie-centered strategies found elsewhere.

Unfortunately it seems that so far the only class guide available is for hunters. Especially for games like World of Warcraft and Final Fantasy XI they were known for having some of the best class-specific resources.

Aside from that they also offer a general LotRO guide, though I did not have a chance to review that one yet. According to one of their staff members though they are already working on more class-guides which are scheduled for release in the next few weeks. Let's hope for the best.
