The Lord of the Rings Online Update 10: Mithril Coin Q&A

The latest developer diary for The Lord of the Rings Online deals with a new currency that will be introduced in Update 10, Mithril Coins, and that will be replacing some already existing items such as Revive Tomes and Stablemaster's Writs.

Here's a sample from the Q&A:
What does this mean for me?

Mithril Coins will replace some existing items, such as Revive Tomes and Stablemaster's Writs. Our goal is to provide a simple, consistent interface for the services you already use. Ultimately it should be faster and easier for you to reset a quest, travel or quickly revive.

Why add Mithril Coins now?

We are always looking at ways to improve the game experience. This streamlines many services and lets you get back into the fun without interrupting the game experience.

Are there any ways to earn Mithril in-game?

Mithril can only be purchased in the LOTRO Store for now.
