URUKS and will unlock them once you have.

=============
CRY FOR HAVOC
=============

To get him to come out you need to set off the ALARM and then you need to
kill 35 URUKS, the hard part of this is that you have deal by being surrounded
and having to deal with BERSERKERS and DEFENDERS in the hoard, if you BOW the
DEFENDERS and BERSERKERS in the head and use WRAITH FLASH you shouldn’t have
a problem completing this. [IF DIE AFTER THE BOSS COMES OUT DON’T WORRY JUST
START THE MISSION AGAIN AND HE WILL BE THERE].

================

================

From where you start you, go up the wall and kill the ARCHER here, then look
down and BURN a few URUKS by shooting the FIRE or BARREL, then hop across and
shoot the fire to the left of you, that should bring out the CAPTAIN, you can
ZIPLINE down and face him and his CAPTAIN

if you climb up the wall and get the ARCHER, then shoot the FIRE below and

move up and to the right for the 5TH, go left of here for the next 3 then
shoot the MORGUL FLIES to stay enough away for about 2-3 left.

need to push the CART, kill all the ARCHERS that target you as well as any
ground GUYS, after you pushed it all the way, watch the SCENE.

==============================================================================
The Black Captain [3.12]
==============================================================================

EXP GAINED: 600, +150 for BONUS
BONUS OBJECTIVE: Shank attack URUKS 10 times

This boss is very simple to fight, [DO NOT USE ANY RANGED ATTACKS AS HE WILL
REFLECT IT BACK AT YOU], when he shows up build up combos on the URUKS and
use EXECUTION on him to do some good damage, if you keep repeating this step
you should have no problem beating him, dodging and countering his attacks
are simple and shouldn’t pose a problem.

==============================================================================
The Messenger [3.13]
==============================================================================

EXP GAINED: 600
BONUS OBJECTIVE: N/A

Make your way to the CARAVAN and then look right with your WRAITH VISION to
see the TRAIL, keep following it till you reach the CAVE, if you just follow
the TRAIL inside you should have no problem reaching the ITEM as well as
avoiding the GHULS.

[IF YOU FOUGHT THE MATRON IN SWORD LEGENDS THEN SHOULD BE FAMILIAR WITH THIS]
To start off, use all your ARROWS and keep throwing DAGGERS to do as much
damage as possible before it reaches you, this guy is extremely hard since
you cannot STUN, COMBAT EXECUTE which are key to most fights, the best way
to fight it is by shooting it with your BOW or using your DAGGERS [IF
UNLOCKED], you can only attack once since it will attack really fast and
cannot counter it and if you are too far away it will start spitting acid at
you, once it reaches you and have done enough damage, GHULS will start
coming so use the FIRE to damage them and should be able to finish it off
easily. After you have killed the MATRON, you have to escape, use your SPEED
BOOST and shooting the FIRS to ward off the GHULS till you reach the exit.

very simple, BRAND him when you weaken him enough.

Make your way to the WAYPOINT and then SCENE, after that protect your CAPTAIN
above with your BOW and if you need more shots there are ARROWS near you,
after you have dispatched them move to the next part while staying up top and
repeat the same thing there, and then move to the next part and do the same
thing, then you move onto the STRONGHOLD.

the last part and use your BOW form above to rain hell on them, after you
have cleared all 3 areas, you have finished the mission.

You need to BRAND 6 URUKS before you reach LITHARIEL, by picking off lone
URUKS and ones in the towers you shouldn’t have a problem, after you have
done this go to the WAYPOINT to watch the SCENE. After that you have to
carry LITHARIEL to safety, you’ll have to put her down if want to protect her
which isn’t hard and when your ALLIED URUKS show up it makes it easier [USING

GRAUG to kill all the URUKS and let it start eating before sneaking up on it,
after you have attacked it, it will attract CARAGORS and you need to MOUNT
one of them, after doing so, start shooting the GRAUG in the face but without
FOCUS and lure it to TORVIN, the wait till you have the chance to STUN it in
face with your shots and then TORVIN will jump on, after the SCENE, get off
the CARAGOR and MOUNT the GRAUG, follow the command prompts to ride the
GRAUG, then move up and fight about 20-25 URUKS which shouldn’t be a problem
while on the GRAUG.

WILL LOOK AT YOU] then shoot it in the face with your CHARGED SHOT and it
will run into the wall and then go up to it and GRAB IT, after that GHULS
will come out and attack the GRAUG and you, kill the GHULS really fast as if
the GRAUG eats them it will heal, use your BOW to kill all the GHULS and when
you have then the GRAUG will start attacking you again, keep repeating this
step till you have killed the GRAUG, you will probably have to do this about
4-5 times depending on how fast you can kill the GHULS.

==============================================================================
Brand Five Warchiefs [3.21]
==============================================================================

You now have to BRAND 5 WARCHIEFS to move onto the next part, and too be
honest this is the hardest part of game, the reason why is that you have to
fight the WARCHIEF + 5 CAPTAINS under its leadership, this is extremely hard
since there are too many URUKS too fight at one time.

==============
UKROM IRON ARM
==============

Kill 5 of his supporters with BOWS. [I RECOMMEND THAT YOU TRY CAN DRAW OUT
THE WARCHIEF AND CAPTAINS OUT INTO THE OPEN AND TRY TO GET THEM TO RETREAT SO
YOU DON’T HAVE TO FIGHT AS MANY]

====================
SHAKA PLAGUE BRINGER
====================

Reach the WAYPINT without being seen. [I RECOMMEND THAT YOU TRY CAN DRAW OUT
THE WARCHIEF AND CAPTAINS OUT INTO THE OPEN AND TRY TO GET THEM TO RETREAT SO
YOU DON’T HAVE TO FIGHT AS MANY]

=================
BLORG THE TAINTED
=================

Kill 5 ARCHERS. [I RECOMMEND THAT YOU TRY CAN DRAW OUT THE WARCHIEF AND
CAPTAINS OUT INTO THE OPEN AND TRY TO GET THEM TO RETREAT SO YOU DON’T HAVE
TO FIGHT AS MANY]

==================
LUGA SHIELD BEARER
==================

Kill 5 DEFENDERS. [I RECOMMEND THAT YOU TRY CAN DRAW OUT THE WARCHIEF AND
CAPTAINS OUT INTO THE OPEN AND TRY TO GET THEM TO RETREAT SO YOU DON’T HAVE
TO FIGHT AS MANY]

==============================================================================
Lord of Mordor [3.22]
==============================================================================

EXP GAINED: 1400
BONUS OBJECTIVE: N/A

So you have to fight a lonely CAPTAIN and his followers with your 5 WARCHIEFS,
this is really easy as the WARCHIEFS do a lot of damage and everything you
fight is easy, kill the CAPTAIN and then move up into the TOWER, after
reaching the TOWER there will be a SCENE.

After the SCENE, exit the TOWER and go right and the wall for an easy STEALTH
DRAIN on him, continue down and get the next one with a STEALTH DRAIN, climb
up the wall to the right and wait for the last STEALTH DRAIN, make your way
back to the TOWER and prepare for a very disappointing BOSS FIGHT, just
follow the COMMAND PROMPTS and you will kill the boss and then watch the
SCENE.

==============================================================================
Mordor in Flames [3.23]
==============================================================================

EXP GAINED: 1400
BONUS OBJECTIVE: N/A

Ride the CARAGOR to the battlefield and prepare to fight the TALONS, you have
to fight 5 of them but you have 5 WARCHIEFS of your own, this is fight is
extremely easy so I recommend killing your WARCHIEFS to have a challenge,
after you have done that go all the way into the STRONGHOLD.

This is also a very disappointing boss fight, its basically the same thing as
the LORD OF MORDOR, just follow the COMMAND PROMPTS to win the fight and watch
the ending.

Now after you have finished the game you can find all the collectibles and do
all the side missions you haven’t completed.

==============================================================================
4. Side Missions [4.00]
==============================================================================

There are a total of 10 missions each for the WEAPON LEGENDS missions with 5
being in the first area of the game and other 5 in second area, if a mission
is locked that means you need to unlock a certain ability before you can do
it. For the OUTCAST RESCUE MISSIONS, you have to find the FIST on the MAP
and free the SLAVES so you obtain the mission.

[IM NOT SURE IN WHICH ORDER THE MISSIONS GO AS I WENT TO ALL THE FORGE TOWERS
FIRST BEFORE STARTING ANY MISSIONS AND BY DOING SO UNLOCKED ALL THE MISSIONS]

==============================================================================
Bow Legends [4.01]
==============================================================================

These missions require you to be accurate and quick, having a lot of shots
and focus will help you out a lot with enemies you have to face. [NOTE ALL
BONUSES ARE ALWAYS WORTH 50 MIRIAN AND XP IS WORTH 400]

=====================
A ELBERETH GILTHONIEL
=====================

XP GAINED: 400
MIRIAN GAINED: 200
MAIN OBJECTIVE: Kill all ARCHERS
BONUS OBJECTIVE: Get 10 HEADSHOTS

The main point of this is to stay in the TENT as it will provide with the most
cover as well as all the shots needed to reload [HAVING A LOT OF FOCUS WILL
HELP WHEN SHOOTING], keep killing all till you are finished.

===========
SWIFT MERCY
===========

XP GAINED: 400
MIRIAN GAINED: 250
MAIN OBJECTIVE: Kill 15 URUKS in 30 seconds
BONUS OBJECTIVE: Kill 4 URUKS without leaving focus

This is very simple as they all die in one shot so completing the BONUS and
MAIN should be no problem unless you have very bad aim

==================
SHADOW UNDER SIEGE
==================

XP GAINED: 400
MIRIAN GAINED: 200
MAIN OBJECTIVE: Kill all TARGETS
BONUS OBJECTIVE: Burn 5 URUKS

You have to stay in the CIRCLE which is constricting but doable, there are
only a few BARRELS and FIRES to shoot at so you have to make them count, now
getting the TARGETS on the other hand are kind of annoying since most of are
out of reach and require you to get on alert, to hit those GUYS up top, climb
up the walls near you to shoot them.

================
THE STORM OF WAR
================

XP GAINED: 400
MIRIAN GAINED: 150
MAIN OBJECTIVE: Kill all patrols within the time limit
BONUS OBJECTIVE: Kill 10 URUKS while riding

Just go to the patrols and kill them while on the CARAGOR, this is really
simple as they can barely hurt you and can attack from a distance

====================
THE EYE OF VENGEANCE
====================

XP GAINED: 400
MIRIAN GAINED: 200
MAIN OBJECTIVE: Kill all TARGETS
BONUS OBJECTIVE: Kill 5 URUKS up close

All you have to do is just walk up the URUK with FOCUS on and just shoot him
in the face to complete the BONUS and MAIN

================
SHADOW AND FLAME
================

XP GAINED: 400
MIRIAN GAINED: 550
MAIN OBJECTIVE: Get 30 kills with BARRELS
BONUS OBJECTIVE: Don’t get hit

Use the WRAITH VISION to see all the incoming enemies and wait for a large
group before firing, the problem with BONUS is that you are confined to a
small place to which if they overrun you, the chance of getting hit is high,
completing the MAIN is simple as they die instantly.

==================
THERE IS NO ESCAPE
==================

XP GAINED: 400
MIRIAN GAINED: 500
MAIN OBJECTIVE: Do not let any URUKS into the stronghold
BONUS OBJECTIVE: Get 3 PIN IN PLACE on URUKS

This is very simple to do, run into the group and PIN IN PLACE 3 of them right
away and they will die to the GRAUG, the others you can either shoot with the
BOW or MELEE them to kill them off [AFTER THE MISSION IS DONE CAREFUL OF THE
GRAUG]

=============
JAWS OF STEEL
=============

XP GAINED: 400
MIRIAN GAINED: 500
MAIN OBJECTIVE: Kill 10 URUKU GUARDS
BONUS OBJECTIVE: Get 5 kills from CARAGORS

To start off the mission, look left for the BAIT MEAT [IF CANT SEE, USE WRAITH
VISION], then start picking off the TARGETS, you are also confined to a small
place so getting some of them may pose a problem

============
SECRET FLAME
============

XP GAINED: 400
MIRIAN GAINED: 450
MAIN OBJECTIVE: Kill 50 GHULS with BARRELS
BONUS OBJECTIVE: Only use 5 BARRELS

[I RECOMMEND HAVING AT LEAST 3 HP UPGRADES OR MORE BEFORE THIS] If you want to
complete the BONUS you need to let the GHULS swarm you, if you have a lot of
HP then this shouldn’t be a problem, stay near a barrel and when you have at
least 10+ attacking you, shoot the BARREL and repeat this step till you have
completed the mission.

==================
THE SPIRIT OF FIRE
==================

XP GAINED: 400
MIRIAN GAINED: 450
MAIN OBJECTIVE: Kill 5 URUKS with FIRE ARROWS
BONUS OBJECTIVE: Shoot 3 BARRELS with FIRE ARROWS

This is easiest challenge to complete for both BONUS and MAIN, just build
your combo for the FIRE ARROW and look for the BARRELS to shoot and when you
are done, build the combo again and kill 5 URUKS with FIRE ARROWS.

==============================================================================
Dagger Legends [4.02]
==============================================================================

These missions require you to be fast and silent and also requires you to be
patient with the kills as well not being detected the whole time. [NOTE ALL
BONUSES ARE ALWAYS WORTH 50 MIRIAN AND XP IS WORTH 400]

=================
THE MYTHRIL BLADE
=================

XP GAINED: 400
MIRIAN GAINED: 125
MAIN OBJECTIVE: Kill 10 enemies without being detected
BONUS OBJECTIVE: Stealth kill 10 enemies in 3 MINUTES

Make your way to the 1ST GUY with no problem, then takeout 2 and 3 watching
the SLAVES [THEY WILL NOT NOTICE EVEN THOUGH THEY BESIDE EACH OTHER], go up
top next for 4-6 and then look right for the 7TH [ARCHER], make your way back
to where you killed 4-6 and then go left and jump down and take your time for
7-10.

===============
CLEAR THE SKIES
===============

there are 4 GUYS here and shooting them with a BOW will do the trick. [USE THE
DISTRACTION OF THE GHULS TO GET AROUND THEM AND RELEASE CARAGORS TO HELP OUT
AS WELL]. Climb up the walls and make your way to the final spot.

==============
THE FELL BEAST
==============

XP GAINED: 400
MIRIAN GAINED: 200
MAIN OBJECTIVE: Kill all patrols before time runs out
BONUS OBJECTIVE: Kill 5 URUKS with BITE ATTACKS

This is a very simple one, mount the CARAGOR and then travel to destinations
and kill 2 or 3 GUYS, I believe you have to kill 4 patrols to complete this,
to complete the BONUS is very easy, just knock down all the enemies and then
BITE them to get this

=================
CUTTING THE LINES
=================

XP GAINED: 400
MIRIAN GAINED: 250
MAIN OBJECTIVE: Kill all TARGETS
BONUS OBJECTIVE: Melee execute 5 URUKS

You will have to run into the camp and takeout about 6-9 TARGETS with about
15-20 URUKS blocking your path, if you have good reflexes and skill this
shouldn’t pose a problem for you, to get the BONUS you can either do a GROUND
EXECUTION or COMBAT EXECUTION, really easy to do if you can pay attention to
all the button prompts.

===============
NAMELESS THINGS
===============

XP GAINED: 400
MIRIAN GAINED: 200
MAIN OBJECTIVE: Clear out 3 GHUL nests
BONUS OBJECTIVE: Kill 10 GHULS with a single WRAITH FLASH

You have to travel into the cave and clear out 3 areas, you might think this
is easy but is actually really hard since there are a lot of them and they
also spit POISON at you which is annoying as hell, and will probably lose the
CHAIN because of this, one you have cleared out all the nests you have to face
the BOSS GHUL; this guy is extremely hard since you cannot STUN, COMBAT
EXECUTE which are key to most fights, the best way to fight it is by shooting
it with your BOW or using your DAGGERS [IF UNLOCKED], you can only attack once
since it will attack really fast and cannot counter it and if you are too far
away it will start spitting acid at you, also later on little ghuls will show
up to help the BOSS out making the fight even more tough.

============
INTO THE PIT
============

XP GAINED: 400
MIRIAN GAINED: 250
MAIN OBJECTIVE: Kill all URUKS in the pits
BONUS OBJECTIVE: Get a 100 combo chain

This is very easy to complete but the BONUS on the other hand is a different
story, to get this you must be very patient with all your attacks and counters
as well always using WRAITH FLASH to save you when in trouble, takeout any
ARCHERS out first before doing this as they will most likely destroy your
combo.

=====
ARISE
=====

XP GAINED: 400
MIRIAN GAINED: 250
MAIN OBJECTIVE: Get 40 kills on URUKS
BONUS OBJECTIVE: Get 5 COMBAT DRAINS

Basically like the INTO THE PITS mission except with less people, this is
actually quite easier since they can only come through the CAVE ENTRANCE and
getting a COMBO CHAIN is simple for the 5 COMBAT CHAINS, there are BARRELS and
CAMPFIRES here to help out if you need to explode if you get overwhelmed.

==============
THE DARK RIDER
==============

XP GAINED: 400
MIRIAN GAINED: 450
MAIN OBJECTIVE: Clear out 3 areas of URUKS within the allotted time
BONUS OBJECTIVE: Get 5 BITE ATTACK kills

[IF YOUR CARAGOR DIES THE MISSION ENDS] Make your way to the first area and
try and knock them all down so you can get the easy BITE kills, this is harder
THE FELL BEAST mission since there are more URUKS and you will take a lot of
damage, after you have cleared the area make your way to the next one and get
off the CARAGOR and fight to make it simpler as you probably spent a lot of
time getting the BITE kills and need to speed things up as you will have about
1:30-2:00 minutes left before the last area, do the same thing at the last
area and then you are done.

============
THE RED TIDE
============

XP GAINED: 400

===================
THEY SHALL NOT PASS
===================

XP GAINED: 400
MIRIAN GAINED: 550
MAIN OBJECTIVE: Do not let any TORCHBEARERS pass you
BONUS OBJECTIVE: Kill 3 URUKS by throwing them off the ledge

You have to hold out for about 3:30-4 minutes which is very boring since they
don’t really challenge you that much as if you takeout the TORCHBEARER right
away you have to wait some time for another to come on through, to get the
BONUS kill all till there are about 2-3 left then STUN or PIN IN PLACE to
toss them over the ledge

================
THE POWER OF ONE
================

8. My Opinion/Review [8.00]
==============================================================================

Ive been waiting for a good LORD OF THE RINGS game and I now I have one, if
you have played any ASSASSIN CREED series or any of the BATMAM ARKHAM series
you will be at home as derives off some the mechanics used in those games, if
you haven’t played of those games don’t worry the game mechanics are simple
and easy to get into.

====
PROS
====

- Story, visuals and audio are very good

- Gameplay mechanics is basically like the BATMAN ARKHAM series which is very
good combat system

- Fighting hordes of enemies is very fun with them surrounding you while you
try and take them all on

- Having enemies remember you is cool feature

====
CONS
====

- Boss fights very disappointing as you do not get actually fight them but
instead just press buttons

- The camera when fighting sometimes doesn’t move around properly making you
miss a counter/dodge resulting in either dying or losing your combo chain.

- Once you unlocked certain abilities the game does not become very fun as
they are way too overpowered.

- Kind of dumb how Talion can just run up about 99% of everything game, with
the climbing controls being kind of unresponsive at some times.
