Lord of the Rings Online has a level cap of 130 and most players get there by killing things and doing magic shit. Except that is for Cookingwithsim, who played as a humble hobbit, managed almost exclusively to … bake cakes.
How MMORPG.com reportIt took eight months, and a large part of their attempt was to see if this was even possible. What it could because they used money to start a farm and then farmed all the ingredients they needed to bake cakes and then could switch to making fancier cakes that generated more XP.
This may sound crazy and pointless, but remember, despite the heroics of five very specific hobbits who starred in six filmsfor the rest where you Hearts really lie is in peace and quiet and well-tilled earth.
And cake.
Oh, and if you’re wondering if you even bake them in industrial batches of 10,000-15,000 each, it still took millions of cakes to get to 130. As pedestrian as it sounds, it also sounds a lot harder than just getting on a horse and beating a few orcs.
