Game is so much fun sent a death threat to a captain.
Went to his location I have an epic rune which allows 10 more seconds of the invisibility super so I branded all his followers went hiding then watched them rape the captain.haermm
Damn some warchiefs are uber tough.
The one I went up against had poison damage ,summoning and heal.
Healing was so good he could get back his health to max during mid fight if I let him breath for only like 5-10 seconds.
Couldnt phuck him up with combat finishers cause guys around me always made me lose my streak.
Didnt wanna cheap his ass with the infinite super special so I just wraith flashed and wraith burned him like 8 times.
He lasted like 10 minutes which was straight up fighting only.

Yeah, I had this one called Goroth who was immune to Stealth and Ranged attacks. And there was him and like 20 orcs around him. So I fought I would attract 3 Caragors to help. But that was no help. He also had the ability where he could kill large beasts quickly
What sort of powerlevel chiefs are you facing?
I have only been against Power Level 10 maximum.
Around 15-16 most of the times rarely 19-20 but there are few 10-12 ones as well whenever they run out I jst advance time.
Im maxed out so it was still suprising for me how challenging the game can be.
Though I didnt do weakness exploitation.
Earlier in the game I faced a guy similar to that warchief with health regen ,bleeding weapon but he had a stealth weakness so on the 2nd try I just used death from above on him.
Gonna try to farm all the epic runes.
Looking for the ones that double the lenght of elf swiftness and that give wraith flash more stun time so I can wraith burn them easily.😛

Yeah, so far I got 1 Epic Rune that gives me 3% health each time I counter an attack. Really cool.
Also have you collected all of the things that make up the image of the door yet?
I still haven't done any main missions yet. Just been revenge killing and trying to do all side missions and collect artifacts.

Its gonna be a pretty cool monologue.
I have to finish the remaing 4 story missions get a lvl 25 rune and rescue the outcast for platinum.
Cant wait for further content.
My sword has 4 epic runes. My broken sword has 1 and I don't think I have any for the bow.
One epic is that I get full health and focus after killing a captain which is freaking amazing when I was facing 4-5 captains and a bajillion peeps. I forget what else I have aside from a epic rune that gives me 5 Health after every execution. This is good considering I only need 5 hits to get one and I upgraded to allow me two of them at a time.
This game is ****ing awesome. Raping a thousand orcs is so damn satisfying. I'm a bit worried for Assassins Creed Unity because the fighting system is going to be much shallower than Mordor and won't have the upgrade/rune system.
Another solid outing from Monolith. One of my favourite developers.

I have 2 runes equipped that recover 29% of my health adding it up to 58% after each drain/brand and one epic rune that recovers 4 elf shots after each drain that way I can get both my health and arrows back.
Try to get the 50% less focus drain and exploding fire arrow those are aswsome.
Finally got the epic rune which expands wraith flash stun time.
Pretty often it wont stun an opponent long enough to wraith burn them but with the rune you get like 5 extra seconds.
Which mean if you do a flash followed by a burn you can kill 3-4 guys at least count can go up to 5-6.
One of.the best runes Imo.
They were soo scared of this game being bad they were draconian in who get copies to review or show.
Luckily for them people liked it otherwise this would have blown up in their face

Took my time with rune hunting etc...played 41 hours with it.
Loved every minute.Hope they will release dlc pretty soon.
Yeah, I just finished it and the end scene was very mystifying. I think there will be more story considering Talion said something akin to there being new rings. And we see his eyes glowing red for a minute.
It was really cool I thought. Desperate for more now.
According to the wiki we are getting a DLC called the Bright Lord which is about Celebrimbor when he was fighting Sauron.

How do I do this?
Sorry for the spoilers. Didn't want to ruin anyone's time with the game.
Looks like time passed. Sorry for anyone that reads that and it spoils it for them, what I put there isn't incredibly integral to the story. It's just pretty much what happens at the end.
It wont affect you learning about characters in the game that much.

Okay thanks for that, looking forward to playing as Celebrimbor if that's the case.
I just was a bit pumped from finishing the game so I went a bit overboard with spoilers.
What did you think of the end missions
Spoiler:
where we see that Celebrimbor could have released Talion at any time if he wanted to, kind of with Celebrimbor on this one. Also what do you reckon on the glow in Talions eyes at the end? Do you reckon he has absorbed someone else? Doesn't look like Celebrimbor this time
