After doing the “Honor the Spirit of the Snow Leopard” heart quest in Wayfarer Foothills i happened to snay in snow leopard form although i left the quest area.

The consequence of this is that it is possible to do “Help Bjarni honor the Hare Spirit” without speed impairments while carying a bag of food.

I’ve noticed this too. You get a warning as you leave the renown heart area, and the buff on the buff bar flashes, but it doesn’t remove the leopard form when it expires. I had a lot of fun participating in The Maw event chain as a leopard :P If you are downed, you are returned to you normal form (Protip: the leopard can’t dodge roll).

As a side note, I wish this was actually a feature. Some of my more memorable moments from LotRO involve chicken run…

I’d rather regret something I’d done than regret doing nothing.

Did not think about discussing that matter, but…well the part staying as leopard was fun, but i think it defeats the purpose if it bypasses the speed impairment at the other heart quest.

So yes, having that feature would be nice, but not if its disrupts other hearts.

Usually one of the skills available in transformed state gets you back to normal form. Is that skill unavailable / not working?

You can still choose to return to your normal form, but normally oyu are forced out of it after leaving the heart area, which did not happen in this case.

Hmmm I didn’t think this was a bug. Doesn’t the #5 ability allow you to return to human form anyways?

That being said, I completed all of Wayfarer’s as a leopard (minus the Jotun trading mission) and all of Caledon Forest as a Fern hound It made it fun and exciting to complete the areas even though it was my 5-6th time.

Normally when you’re transformed for a heart, the effect wears off automatically if you stray from the area it takes place, but a couple of them don’t.

It seems to be a recent bug, since I definitely remember the leopard one turning you back to normal if you left the area on the first couple of characters I did it with.
