Bonjour, je'mappelle Nelman... where am I
Over the past couple days I have been running around the server and Fellowship Path, for other reasons and during my travels I have noticed a couple issues that could be easily fixed and some additions that could add to the server.
First off I wanted to quickly run down some issues I found with the Fellowships paths placement etc. Without starting a discussion I am of the camp that thinks the spawn of World should be in the main hall rather than back room as the feet are cramped around corners and hard to follow for being the first thing you see, which has been shown off a million times.
My favourite issue I've found to showcase what I have seen wrong with the path is at the Barrow Downs where the loop into the barrow is not really even connected to the main path, which I've found makes it very missable. The rest I'll do in list form:
Other points I wanted to bring up are more World building things that bring attention to certain spots that I and others have missed with ease, or just make sense to add.
Finally something that I know has been discussed multiple times but for there not to be a reason to turn around at Caradhras kinda feels cheap and not finished. So I will quickly say that there are benefits to having the timeframe of the server to be as the fellowship sees them. This allows for people to connect with locations better and like Caradhras, allows us to convey the server better.
We already have multiple locations on the that are not part of Bilbo’s 111th birthday, first one that comes to mind is Fangorn, but atleast for the main locations the only place I can see that is truly impacted by this in a large way is Isengard and the general Minas Tirith area, but with what we have for Minas Tirith I’d say it works as is.
Just some food for thought and stuff that has been picking at my brain for a time now. Please comment and call me out lol

My favourite issue I've found to showcase what I have seen wrong with the path is at the Barrow Downs where the loop into the barrow is not really even connected to the main path, which I've found makes it very missable. The rest I'll do in list form:
- Rivendell path - from Bruinen path is very confusing and easy to miss
- Caradhras path - path to the mountain meets at the same spot, also easy to miss (I watched an Adventurer miss the path as I was doing this)
- Parth Galen - It is a shitshow...
- Fangorn path - the path from the start of Fangorn splits but ultimately goes to the same spot where it splits later, unnecessary and confusing
- Isengard connector - Merry and Pippin's path doesn't even connect to the main Fellowship Path a
- Edoras connector - and finishing on a small one Aragorn's path across the river onto the main road is a tiny bit confusing whether to turn left or right.
Other points I wanted to bring up are more World building things that bring attention to certain spots that I and others have missed with ease, or just make sense to add.
- Arrows in Boromir's tree, adds more to the area rather than a missable blood splat
- Boats on the shore of Parth Galen, we have them all the way down the Anduin and here it shows where the Fellowship Path continues.
- There is not any King’s Foil on the server either south of the East-Road or around the Trollshaws, I feel this a bit of an oversight, but the area south of Weathertop is generally not done.
- And finishing on a small one again, There isn't any O’l Toby in Isengard….
