Angmar Free Folk Steed
As many of you have already noticed, the Angmar Free Folk
Steed looks identical to the Dunedain War Steed. This was an
error and will be fixed with a new skin in a future update. LotRO
Online Team member and Senior Designer ‘Orion’ stated in the
official forums:
“This will be fixed! There was a little hiccup in the process of
getting this in the game. We are in the process of getting the
correct appearance on this horse, but we cannot tell you when
it will be updated. We will make certain that the new
appearance gets into the game as it is not supposed to be a
spitting image of an existing horse appearance.”–Orion

It really irked me that not being a forum hound, I was unaware that the steed I grinded rep for and paid for did not come with ANY ingame warning that it would be changed. It is not a requirement to read the forums before you make any purchase, and Turbine totally slacked off on their responsibility to the players with this error.
It would only be fair to have our money refunded and to decided IF want want this new skin they have been talking about for months, and why did they not, with the last huge update, place a nice warning in red to all buyers of this mistaken steed?
