Locations

From Lotro-Wiki.com

Locations within Middle-earth are laid out on a rectilinear coordinate system (along X and Y axes). The X-axis corresponds to East-West coordinates and the Y-axis to North-South. Players can display icons on their map for features in the Middle-earth landscape such as landmarks, stable-masters, milestones and mailboxes. The coordinates for these locations are shown when the player moves their mouse over the icon. The format of the coordinates are 00.0N, 00.0W. For example, the coordinates for the mailbox in Celondim are 28.2S, 92.1W. Location coordinates are shown throughout Lotro-wiki.com using the Tooltip Coords template.

Location alias and command

Players can find their current coordinates by typing ;loc in any chat window. The ;loc command is a pre-programmed alias and therefore begins with a semicolon. The result of this alias is a set of North-South and East-West coordinates following the format described above. The coordinates will be displayed in the currently selected chat window. In order to avoid disturbing other people, players should send a tell to themselves with the ;loc alias. For example, the following command will send a tell to the character YourName with the player's current coordinates.

/tell YourName ;loc

A custom alias can be created and assigned to a Quickslot location for easier use. See alias for more information.

Using the /loc command will give a much longer, but more confusing set of location information. However, the results of /loc do not appear in any chat channel.

List of Coordinates

If you are trying to find a particular landmark, settlement or NPC and the wiki doesn't have this information, see landmark coordinates for an older list of coordinates. (Spoiler warning!)
