You can't buy VIP access (subscription) through Steam though, but by buying TP you will become 'premium', which has some benefits over F2P. The method to get TP is like this: Open the Lotro store, select the button under your current amount of TP ('buy points' or something similar) Select the purchase points using Steam option Buy one month VIP ($15) for all one-time unlocks (swift travel, etc.) and log into all the characters you made. Use the 500LP on most of the discounted expansion content (99LP each). Use in-game earned LP (or spend another $5) to unlock the the rest of the expansion content. Recent Posts.
