Lord of the Rings Online Traits Compendium
Lord of the Rings Online has a interesting way to create character individuality by the use of traits. Traits are gained by several methods. These are: Race, Class, Legendary and Virtue. Gaining traits is done differently for each but all are equipped by visiting a bard in Middle Earth.
Traits are gained as follows:
Race: Gained from killing creatures that have racial hatreds.
Class: Gained from using Skills/Spells of you chosen class.
Virtues: Gained through exploration of Middle Earth or Purging the lands of foul creatures.
Legendary: These are gained through the location of Books and pages.
Virtues
Each virtue gives three bonuses. The first one is the largest bones, the second not so large and the last a minor bonus. Further down you can find how to increase the level of these virtues.
A good place to look for all the virtues is also in the Lord of the Rings Wiki. It has tables of the virtues and the bonuses they give.
