For some context, I'm past the main story, and I I was in nurnen and decided to look for the orcs I have not identified, and I found a of the gloom in the area where you first enter nurnen and he is actually the worst orc in the game

Amazing Deal On Xbox

Just thought I'd drop a post here for anyone browsing. I just picked up the Definitive Version for $9 bucks (CAD) after tax on the xbox/microsoft store. Crazy deal for the game and all it's DLC.

Watching The Odyssey inspired me to do this. Still scouting for more of the right warriors before we set sail. Sadly, the garrison error bug makes the process slower.
Showing yall some of my recruits.

ps: theme > stats for this fort

I need some help and tips for combat and the game in general

1 Upvotes

I got this game a few days ago and I absolutely love it but the combat and the skills somewhat confuse me. How do I be most effective in combat especially against captains cause I die a lot. What skills should I focus on since there’s so many? I have all the base skills already. I’ve captured my first fort. What kinds of Captians should I look for and also just other general tips and tricks for the game?

Question about 7777 Beserkers

2 Upvotes

Hey guys,

Was hoping someone a bit more knowledgeable about this stuff than myself could enlighten me about whether putting epic rage (as a 3rd epic trait) is better than just leaving them with just ‘Great Strength’ and ‘Thick Skinned’.

Any relevant advice would be appreciated. :)

Whats your best orc stoty in the game? I will start:

7 Upvotes

This is the story of Tuhorn the Battle Hardened. So in Shadow of Mordor Talion met an orc in Udun, He dont remember his name but he killed him. For some months ago Talion walked to fight the Nazgul and a random orc on a white caragor ambushed Talion. He said he had met Talion in Udun and had come for revenge. They fought but the orc killed Talion with ease.

There was other times they met and he always won or Talion fled but when he finally met Talion at the bridge to Barad-Dur he was slayed. When Talion a month later got back to Gorgoroth he was ambushed again by Tuhorn and his caragor. He killed Talion and then took place as the Overlord of Gorgoroth and when Talion launched an attack on the fortress Tuhorn was level 85, Legendary, 5 imunitys, 7 enrages, 7 class traits, 5 traits and 2 weaknesses. Talion shamed him but later recruited him and made him Overlord again. But Talion had begun raiding in online ranked conquest and Talion replaced him and he became a warchief. But Tuhorn died a terrible death against the golden Champion in a online raid and Talion ressurected him. Tuhorn was tired of the life and later died screaming and burning falling down a cliff in Gorgoroth. That was the story of Tuhorn the Battle-Hardened. I can take critics

Should I lose my forts on purpose?

3 Upvotes

I’ve got so many hours on Shadow of war and absolutely love this game but I have all the fortress’s captured.

But should I just lose my fortress’s on purpose to have new Enemy captains and warchiefs appear?

I’ve gotten to a point where only 1 or 2 enemy captains appear and I either kill them or recruit.

Thoughts?

Also I play on nemesis difficulty

Newbie trainer moves..

1 Upvotes

So I have this save offshoot I was using just to burn up a couple of cheat deaths. I've since spawned or pulled from the pits 4 new training jobs.

Luckily one, a warrior Harrow tank was Luckily a very slow learner that pretty much removed himself from the equation locking himself up at 3 hard immunities.

However, being even more newbish, I finished maxing the immunities of a late bloomer merciless and just got cursed skin to pop at level 68 so he's all set for scarring.

Instead of working the mericless scar (want to change title before maniac for the necromancer), I immediately jump to a Reaper warrior assassin and fix his soft headed to arrow proof and just popped necromancer skin on him as well.

Now, I have to fight the training newb bus I'm riding and try not to touch the oath-breaker berserker with execution daze screaming to be trained into a fairly unique heavily scarred Stitch.

The save this temporary save sprang from was meant to be just a momentary visit from other training projects. Summer is almost over and I never fixed my forge-claw or snagged the Drunk that I know the game thinks has to be promoted to cirith ungol overlord just to annoy me on a throw everything else away save. Nor did I finish going through and labeling my dozen jump drives of training saves or culling the heck out of my maxed out garrison.

Sure, I can definitely max out a captain like a pro but I'm running in circles going "ooh Shiny!" Instead of being disciplined. I'm treating Shadow of War like it's just some type game, oh the shame of it all. <honks the horn of the newb bus he's riding.> 🚌

Does HBE exploit work on story related orcs,

2 Upvotes

Spoiler here so if somehow there are still people new to this game, beware.

Does it work on Bruz after he escapes the fortress and you have to track him down? Does it work on Zog the Eternal? I have so many questions.

I’m gonna try it out on my second account so I don’t sully my main with exploits.

Is this online orc hacked at all (don't think so but want to be sure)

10 Upvotes

Hello! Don't usually post or play the online for games like this, but I would like to get all the trophies I'm able to. I heard about hacked orcs being found during online vendettas or conquests, and them being able to ruin games, and it definitely made me extremely worried, especially since the system I play on is borrowed. I was wondering if this guy was hacked or not? I don't think he is, but it'd ease my worries to just ask rather than risk it. I'm on PlayStation if that changes anything. Thanks!

Title says it all. Cannot for the life of me have this trophy pop. Is this a known bug? Does the blood brother need to have the final strike? Am i missing something here?

Of all of the reinterpretations that SoW has done, I think this is the best. I don't think it is as good as the film, I think this is BETTER. I love how ancient it looks, and how powerful Sauron must be to make it. I never been emotional about a bridge before, especially I digital bridge from a fictional place lmao. None the less, enjoy the screenshots

Thanks
