Guide to Enedwaith

Wood troll in the Mournshaws
Updated for the November Update (coming November 29th).

Level 65
Content Pack:
VIP or Enedwaith Quest Pack
Enedwaith Quest Pack includes:

Designed for players at the level 65 cap, Enedwaith offers a bunch of quests and two reputation factions in addition to the latest installment of the epic book.

For most players, the journey to Enedwaith starts with Elrond in Rivendell since that's where Volume 3, Book 2 starts. The epic story will lead you south through Eregion to Enedwaith. For players wanting to check out the zone sooner, ride south-east from Echad Mirobel (look for To Enedwaith on your map), or purchase the Return to Enedwaith skill from the LOTRO Store.

Reputation In Enedwaith

LOTRO Enedwaith Barter Tokens
Enedwaith barter tokens are earned as quest rewards
While it's relatively easy to raise your reputation with the Grey Company, befriending the Algraig is quite a bit tougher. You'll get close to Ally with the Grey Company just by doing the epic and zone quests, which you can finish off via daily quests. Setting aside gear upgrades and emotes (these can be pretty subjective), the notable Grey Company rewards are:
  • Muster In Harndirion (Friend, 62 Warden)
  • Guide to Harndirion (Friend, 62 Hunter)
  • Grey Company Steed (Kindred)

On the other hand, you'll only get to mid-Acquaintance with the Algraig after completing the zone quests. After the November Update launches, there will be seven repeatable quests for Algraig rep, for a total of 6,700 rep per day. For the Algraig, the notable rewards are:
  • Return to Enedwaith skill (Kindred)
  • Algraig Steed (Kindred)

While the Return to Enedwaith skill is handy, the cost makes it unlikely folks will grind to Kindred just for this, especially as this can be purchased in the LOTRO Store. It is much more likely that some players will earn Kindred for one or both of the reputation horses, although several reputation mounts added in the November Update will have as much or more morale than the Enedwaith rep horses. The daily quests in Thror's Coomb are the fastest way to earn the Gold Tokens of the Wilds needed.

The Algraig Grind Gets Easier

As of the November Update, there are seven daily quests that reward Algraig reputation. It is possible to reduce that number to 6, based on a choice you make while questing, though with the added daily quests, it's less of a problem than before.

Unlocking Protecting the Herd - Repeatable

Once you complete the regular version of the Feeding the Company quest you are given a choice between "Feeding the Company - Repeatable" or "A Matter of Doubt". Take "A Matter of Doubt" if you want to keep your Algraig options open. The quest sends you to Uch Cadlus, and after a little back and forth opens the Uch Cadlus quest hub. Complete the Uch Cadlus quests (one at a time) until you've unlocked "Protecting the Herd - Repeatable", the seventh Algraig daily quest.

Excellent round-up. Any chance you have the Grey Company reputation daily repeatable quests handy? :)

Lunatuna said...

I didn't make a list of the Grey Company daily quests yet (so much to get ready for F2P), but it's on my to-do list!

Anonymous said...

No problem lol, was just hoping! I shouldn't be so lazy, I have 19600 rep to Kindred, and should have written them down. :)

Wish I had read this earlier, I have already opted to repeat Feeding the Company :(

Anonymous said...

Do the repeatable quests require a level of rep to be offered ? I am 1/2 way through neutral, and none of the repeatable are offered except protecting the herd.

Lunatuna said...

That's a great question, and one I didn't specifically test for. I ran two 65s through Enedwaith in test, doing the epic and all the other quests as I went. I believe the repeatables open up by completing the other quests for the node, but there could also be a rep component I didn't detect.

Nerves said...

Thanks for the guide - it's nice to hear they are adding more repeatables for the algraig. I might actually try to gain rep there now.

Anonymous said...

Near as I can see, the 4 quests listed above (total 2400 rep) are the only ones for Grey Company. So getting to Ally won't be that hard (with all the one-time rep quests), but then you'll have roughly 30,000 more that can only be gotten 2400 at a time. That's roughly 2 weeks of dailies.

If I'm missing something and there's a way to get Grey Company rep faster than that, I'll be happy to hear it.

Lunatuna said...

Nope, there are only 4 daily quests for Grey Company rep. I'm about halfway through Ally on both, and with all the new Algraig quests, I'm likely to finish it first!

Heiligkind said...

You also get Grey company rep from a lot of the deeds in Endewaith.

Anonymous said...

Odd - so far, in just a few hours questing in Endewaith, I've had roughly 4 lvl 65 legendary 3rd age satchels drop (none have had good legacies, alas), and few if any other legendary drops. Are the legendary drops in this zone class dependant (I'm an RK)? Not complaining if they are, obviously.

Anonymous said...

I am a solo gamer and not in a Kin, so far I have completed just about everything I am Ally with both factions and have 15 Gold Tokens. I took the wrong option and cannot find Protecting the Herd though "Feeding the Company - Repeatable" still offers a warning in red, I cannot locate of trigger "A Matter of Doubt". So I think I have already refused it. So my question is how does a solo player get the last 5 Gold Tokens needed for a faction horse?

Lunatuna said...

Your best bet is to bite the bullet and join one Nars Peak group. At first you only have the first four quests unlocked, but you'll get at least 5 tokens in run, which takes about 20 minutes. If you do all 8 Nars daily quests they pay 13 gold tokens and 85K IXP.

If you really must solo these, follow a Nars group as they clear the mobs so you can complete the quests that require interacting with objects. I don't recall how many there are in the first 4 (which must be completed to unlock the next 4), so it make take a few days.

Heranuen said...

Very kind of you to answer so quickly, yes I will bite the bullet and man up..even though I am a girl elf

Thanks Lunatuna very very much and happy gaming

You can do the Gwiber-egg quest in NĂ¡rs Peak without a fellowship(Something-something Clutch). There are at least 4 locations for eggs where you don't have to fight any of the Gwibers and you only need 3 eggs. Quick and easy.

Ajay said...

You can solo the eggs and the 10 gwiber (gwiberlings count too) easily. I've been doing those 2 at least every day in addition to the protecting the cattle quest. You'll get 4 gold tokens each day within 20-30 minutes, depending on how lucky you are with the gwiberling spawns. Getting a group for Nar's Peak is ideal for maximum amount of gold tokens.

Anonymous said...

Once you've done one of the fellowship quests, another solo-able quest unlocks, to get 3 rubbings from pillers. It's a little challenging since you need to dodge between giants, but it gives one more gold token a day, for the total for 4 a day listed above.

Cheers to all for your great advise..top class site:)
