Mines of Moria is the latest expansion of the well-known MMORPG The Lord of the Rings Online. Announced on March 14, 2008, it was finally released on November 18, 2008.
The story takes place in Moria, the complex underground land of the dwarves, in northwestern Middle-earth and was expanded with six more books. Two completely new classes (Guardian and Rune Guardian) were introduced, as well as a new weapon upgrade system. The character level cap was also increased by ten levels.
The quickest way to get through the ten new levels is to follow this step-by-step Minas de Moria leveling guide:
Eregion (levels 50-53)
