LOTRO’s Middle-earth is big. Really big. Bigger is usually better (unless we’re talking about height, in which case 5′7.5 is ideal) but sometimes, bigger means a lot of running. If you’re anything like me there are a million other things you should be doing instead of playing LOTRO, but they’re not nearly as fun or interesting. Auto-run allows you to make the most of your time, and pretend to yourself and others that you can be productive.
By simpy pressing the ‘num lock’ key, your character will run forward in whatever direction they’re facing until they hit an obstacle or die, in which case they’ll start running again as soon as they revive. When making long treks such as from Bree to the Lone Lands, or one side of Evendim to the other, auto-run is your friend. Hit that key and take off, whether its to the bathroom, to fold some laundry, or to feed the cats/other crying hungry creature.
