Default Something like the Warcraft Soulstone

Hi guys
I'd like to know if in game there is something that works like the Soulstone in World of Warcraft...

For those who don't know what Soulstone are:
A warlock cast a soulstone on another player and when this player dies he can autoresurrect.

The soulstones are really usefull when the whole party dies...

Thanks
Max

The short answer is no...
The longer answer is that Minstrels have Still as Death, this allows the Minstrel to Feign Death, and so allows the minstrel to reset aggro and perform resurections after the rest of the group has wiped...However Still as Death is not always reliable...

Captains can also perform in combat resurections, though I believe this skill is on a 30 minute reuse timer.

I do hope not. Warlocks were the most over-poweredl class in that whole crap game due to ***** like soulstones and healthstones, instant aoe fears. Rubbish completely, go play WoW if you want warlock abilities.

Don't mean to sound bad tempered, but it's because of that class imo which was the demise of that game.

Warlocks were overpowered in pvp....I don't care at all about PVP and i don't think u should care since we are talking about lotro and there is no pvp at all

When u play pve, to have something that let u restart after a wipe without running for miles is very usefull

and as the guy before u answered, we have something like that....Feign Death

No, it's not just PVP, it's PVE aswell, soulstone will allow you to die anywhere and not face heavy walks, even when you are going Solo or in a small fellowship. It's an overpowered ability for us and we don't need it. If we get that then another class will complain and then we will get another wow fan boy in and ask for cat form on their char or something like that. So you should'nt even attempt to go there.

I stand by my statement, you want silly overpowered abilities go play WoW.

Oi! Stop Bashing Warlocks, I played mine till 70 and enjoyed it very much. And I tell you you should have seen us in patch 1.4 ./shudders. Don't wanna start a discussion so only going to post once. PvP is NOT centered around 1vs1. It's GROUP PvP that's important, especially in arenas, were Warlocks are one of the worst classes. Now let's stop talking about the "Game that shall not be named" and enjoy playing with our uber Minstrels .
