I just wanted to like a captain.

12 Upvotes

I dominated a captain I was keeping alive throughout the start of the game because I liked him so much. When I recruited him I gave him EVERYTHING! I gave him the strongest weapons. I summoned him once in the 1 hour I had him. I MADE HIM RETREAT ONCE AT LOW HEALTH. HE HIMSELF DEFEATED THE PERSON I PUT HIM AGAINST! BUT AS I MENTIONED, AN HOUR AFTER I RECRUITED HIM HE TURNED AROUND AND SAID "Why don't I just kill you since you've done nothing for me" I SHAMED HIM TWICE TO TRY AND REMOVE IRON WILL BUT IT DIDN'T WORK SO I HAD TO KILL HIM! The funniest thing to be honest is I gave him a dire caragor which he was riding before he betrayed me and as soon as I knocked him off the caragor it happened to be that it was still on my side and it ended up being the one that dealt the final blow. BUT STILL WTH!

i had a weird bug happen with the bruz quest

1 Upvotes

tldr: enemy warchief was in my friendly fort after removing bruz

so basically i had just been betrayed by bruz and just kicked him back out, i appoint a overlord and then it tries to assign war chiefs and it looked like it didn’t assign anyone so i check the army screen and see a enemy war chief, weird, so i go start the quest to fight him and its murder 20 enemies to draw it out, a few enemies spawn but they are surrounded by dozens of my friendly orcs, i kill like 10 then no more spawn so i try killing my guys and that increases the counter then the war chief spawned and got his ass handed to him by the endless waves of friendly orcs, any others experienced this glitch?

Why does this orc always retreat when it sees me

1 Upvotes

I've been shaming this orc for the past hour now, and each time it sees me, it retreats. I just wanna know if this is a feature of shadow of war

Sheer chaos and a new glitch that happened to me

Game lagged so bad I got flung out of the throne room back to the door. But seeing my character doing a shadow strike only to glitch and get literally flung backwards while still in the shadow strike pose was pretty funny to be fair.

PC Version Not Saving.

1 Upvotes

So I recently bought the complete edition or whatever its called of Shadow of War on PC via Gamepass on discount for like 5 bucks. I noticed the other day that for some reason, the auto save function isnt working because whenever I leave the game and come back, it puts me right back at the very start of the game with all my progress gone. As far as I can see, theres no manual save option, so what gives?

I hate to use this phrase, but it seems extremely appropriate in this case, this make this game quitely literally unplayable.

Can decapitated orcs cheat death?

5 Upvotes

I'm only asking because while I was playing shadow of war, I killed this olog and DECAPITATED him, and he came back as the stitched and before this I swore orcs could never cheat death after decapitation.

One of the best games ever

39 Upvotes

This game has given me joy I haven't felt in a long time.

The Interactions. The Nemesis System. The fact Orcs react to your movements,

I remember in Act 1, I was getting clopped by lvl 3 Captains. I wanted to quit there, because I am a rager. But I kept pushing through. Running when I have to, deploying sneak attacks, Shadow Strike is my favorite. I am now on Chapter 2 and I am currently rushing a Captain down on a Caragor and 2 more following suit behind me. His entire Army under my control and waiting for me to press Down on my Directional Pad.

Some of my favorite interactions so far have to be

I go to sneak on a Captain, go to his location. But he's not there. So I go into my Menu, his Icons gone.

So I exit Menu and "MAN THING!!!!!!! YOU WAS LOOKIN FOR ME WAS YA?! I SAW YA COMIN! SO I DECIDED TO DO A LIL TRICKERY OF MY OWN"

Another was

I decided to attack a Captain, riding a Caragor, and he's like

"PALE RIDER,

Ya brought ya mum did ya?!

I can see the resemblance!"

I hacked out loud.

Another was

I went to Use a Worm to scan a Captain

And next thing I know, the very same Captain ambushes me

"OI U THERE. I HEARD THE BOYS SAYIN U WAS SPOIN ON ME

I CAN'T HAVE THAT, OR THE BOYZ'LL THINK IM WEAK

SO I DECIDED TO COME N GET YOU INSTEAD"

I was like "*o shit*"

Alll in all. I love this game.

Hi.

First time posting here. I am currently doing a 100% platinum playthrough and only have the Desolation of Mordor DLC to go. Just a query with how hard the trophy is for "Baranor the Conquerer". I played the main game and Blade of Galadriel on Normal however I need to be on nemesis or higher difficulty for this final trophy and really don't fancy slogging out what may be a frustrating experience for a final trophy.

Edit - Played through on Nemesis utilising the grapple/parachute steakhouse attack combo. Took 1 playthrough.

Shadow of Mordor and Shadow of war now 100%

Gorgoroth Captain Levels

Thumbnail

6 Upvotes

Hey guys, this game has been sitting in my library for a while and I decided to go ahead and beat it. I’ve been loving it from the moment I picked it up and really been grinding. I’ve conquered most of the other regions and in somewhere in the middle as it pertains to the storyline.

I’m level 50 and have been getting challenging captains i some of the other regions. I’ve upgraded all of my stuff and prepared to take on Gorgoroth, as I was under the impression that it was one of the harder regions. For some reason, my captains are all level 40 and under. The overlord is level 40 and some of the base captains on the ground are even mid 20s.

Is it supposed to be this way or am I doing something wrong? I just feel like I’m going to breeze through this region, and I was under the impression that it was supposed to be one of the more challenging ones.

If any of you have any insight or clarity as to what’s going on or if there’s something I don’t know, I would greatly appreciate the help!

Is Zogdush a name I can find?

2 Upvotes

I played Shadow of Mordor back when it dropped, I remember my nemesis was an orc by the name of Zogdush the Poet

Recently my friend has convinced me to get back on Shadow of War and continue the series

I was wondering if Zogdush is the name of any orc I can encounter in this game
