Lorien in general

By the way - Lorien spellbook will be (and always was) quite offensive.
And even sunflare had some place - it means that we should work on some offensive spell as well. In order to replace it.

But the problem is that the nature of Lothlórien is everything but offensive  :(
I sincerely don't like very much this 'offensive' element or characteristic of the faction.
This aspect, instead, could hypothetically fit for Mirkwood, even though Thranduil too has a predilection for isolation, on a minor scale.

ELB27:
This is perhaps where the game must (partially) deviate from the lore. In the books, the elves in general and Lorien in particular are a peaceful folk who focus (almost?) exclusively on defending their enchanted, timeless home. They engage in war only when they are directly assaulted from Dol-Guldur. In the game, however, what player would want to just sit in his base and defend it throughout the entire game, having no offensive aspect at all? In order to make them enjoyable, you must give them an ability to mount an effective offense, supported as it is in other factions by offensive units, heroes and spells. A faction that can only defend its base will invariably lose.

Specifically speaking, I would give Lorien one offensive and one defensive ultimate spells. If the sunflare is not suitable (on which I agree), maybe replace the animations with something resembling "pure starlight". Perhaps Earendil can come on his ship to punish the enemies of Lorien? I can imagine him like a blue-ish ghostly (resembling Army of the Dead) ship that comes and pours starlight unto enemies (glorified, semi-lore-compatible sunflare basically  :P).  (I do not know much lore-wise about Lorien so these suggestions might be rubbish. I just want to stress that a strong offensive spell is a must for Lorien, along with corresponding offensive heroes and units. Canon or not, they must be made competitive and enjoyable in comparison to other factions.)

Have you ever played previous version? If you give the One ring to Gladys, she has two choices - either accept the ring or deny. Both her ring forms have enhanced abilities etc.

Gandalf The Gray:
well she can turn dark for some time without the ring
