3 months of work. Like ten times I thought the guide was ready, and then a new scar would happen. Also, this project made me hate Forthog. He kept saving me even after I uninstalled him. Ugh... Here is the guide to the written guide ar reddit: www.reddit.com/r/shadowofmordor/comments/7sz550/scars_guide_for_shadow_of_war/ This one has a lot more details, including bugs, and things to do or not do. I hope this sheds some light over the bugs that still plague this feature, and hopefully Monolith fixes them.
Clams no, because that would be grammatically incorrect. “An” would make sense in this context because “Orc” starts with a vowel. Besides, Build-An-Orc sounds and flows better than Build-A-Orc
I think it would be cool that there'd be a game where you get to play as an Uruk, starting from rock bottom and slowly make your way to the top till you become a leader. Where you could challange or hunt other Uruks to further your own goal, kill them or reqruit them to join you, and fight kingdoms to claim dominance of the land. And ofcourse be able to invite your friends to hang out or help out.
To make it Lore friendly *if* said Game were made... they should make it to where you can Choose which Era you play as an Orc or Olog ;D! Example: The 1st age during Morgoth's Reign, 2nd Age during the Forging of the Rings ;), or Even the Angmar Wars in the Witchkings army.... hell even the War of The Dwarves and Orcs of Gundabad/Misty Mountains ;D I would pay *good cheese* for such a Game ;) #RIPChristopherTolkien
There are mods for Mount and Blade that do exactly that. You start as the lowliest infantryman and climb the ranks while following your lord into battle. You even get paid wages and everything.
I feel the same way. I think there should be a stand alone game set in Shadow of War where you can create and play as a completely custom Uruk captain, starting from being a lowly grunt to becoming a captain and then becoming a leader that could take part in the siege of Talion's fortress in Seregost that he lost in the Blade of Galadriel DLC. Furthermore, I think it would also be cool if you could take your favorite follower in Shadow of War and import him to the stand alone game to either be the first Uruk you play as, or be the Overlord of the fortress in Seregost that you fight when you're sieging it.
Haha, that's great. I mentioned in the reddit post that the Stitch has an abnormally high chance of coming back. They can totally keep returning from getting decapitated multiple times, although I never had one return that many times, damn.
Isildur123WOT I didn't recruit mone becouse he only had mighty defenders and iron determination... And was dazed by arrows... And he was unbreakable from the begining, but we don't talk about it...
Attention all gamers: The Uruks need your help! they're in Mordor, and all they need to get the legendary scar is your mom or dads credit card, and the 3 wacky numbers on the back!
imagen an online version of this game where you play as the orcs, you could customize your character, name them and start building your army. each region can be a server, you could compete with other players to take over the fort, you could make and brake alliances with other players and maybe even make custom dialogs for your character. that would be awesome but that's just wishful thinking.
The one thing that sucks about the cheating death system in this game is how drastically the chances of cheating death decreases, knowing how cool the nemesis system is. I can fight a whole army of orcs 100s of times, and have 100s of a variety of interactions with them but none of them come back. They said the chances increased with a patch but I didn't notice anything.
@@jbetfifty5904 Thats true but there's just too drastic a chance for cheating death at the very start compared to how astronomically unlikely it is late game. I had a guy who got titled tark slayer at the very start of the game kill me twice, then cheated death twice all before I even left for cirith ungol. He reached like, level 50 or something while I was only around level 8 by then. I've conquered the forts of cirith and seregost by now but I've barely gotten any cheated deaths. Hell, most of my cheated deaths from this "mid game" point are from when I *returned* to Minas morgul for an eltariel quest. Someone became a "The Tower" and a guy who I killed twice at the start of the game also cheated death right after the Tower orc. It's too easy to lose all your best chances at cheated deaths so early on. Edit: woops I said the tower when I meant the machine.
Id like to add a sidenote on this guide. I think the legendary scars can be compatible with common one. For instance, I got an uruk to have the metal mask but latter became the flame of war (legendary burning) while still keeping the metal mask.
This was incredibly useful information! One thing I've learned through gameplay that wasn't mentioned here is that an Uruk or an Olog can aquire the cool cursed look if they gain a Cursed weapon on their own- it doesn't happen through Training Orders, though.
One detail for The Machine : If you kill a "Machine" Uruk, he will never die and cheated death again and again. moreover he specifies it when you fight it and put it on the ground, "You cannot kill the Machine we are repaired to make us stronger" EDIT : Forget that lol, he's totally killable just mine doesn't wanted to die
You forgot the forsaken/nameless one. They cheat death from bleeding out and get new voice lines, become legendary, betray you, and get the skull mask. How did a professional forget this!
All captains have a very small chance of becoming legendary at some point. It is likely your guy got extremely lucky and got upgraded when he leveled up. I have encountered many Captains called The Nameless One or The Forsaken and they do not get upgraded to legendary just like that. Only one did after he came back a second time.
The brand scar also happens if you let one of the slave uruks kill you :) They'll be promoted, then they'll talk about their mark when they run into you
This is crazy. I had no idea that there were so many variants of Orcs that you could get and customize. I've only seen about 4 of these so far, and I've put 60 hours into the game lol.
I have found that if you get downed by thrown objects and the last chance has a lot of distance between you and the one killing you, you don't get saved. At least, I haven't get saved, so that's a good place to start. Otherwise, yes, it sucks to get saved while trying to die.
Amen to this. Had a truly epic legendary nemesis arrive in the most bombastic fashion (ambush on a rooftop, fire all around kinda situation, you'd expect a dang bloodborne choir), then he hit me once, killed, me, and got instagibbed by "savior". Needless to say the uruk responsible was immediately let go from the company
OverEnglishMan "Excuse me, Mr. Orc but due to you saving me and preventing me hiring a potentially good employee I have you let ya go. You may take your weapons and tools with you as you leave. While it has been a pleasure working with you, you are too irresponsible and a liability to our Army here at GraveWalker Estates."
This one Olog killed me and became overlord. We had a amputated metal claw arm right? I killed him and he became the stitch, but he didn't have the claw arm. He had just had a stitched up arm. Where did he get the new arm?
I do not understand several things though: 1) They must die and deceive the death three captains before him, but in what area? Same map, same game session before turning off, same saving of current game or what else? 2) I am in an advanced phase of end-game, and I have already met two Stitches in the past without being able to recruit them. Does this mean that I no longer have the chance to get them back in this game? 3) Advice on how to decapitate a Captain Olog? I can not in any way. Either he dies for an elemental effect (poison, fire or curse), or killed by a sword stroke, or simply I can do the execution but he hits him from behind without decapitating him .. 3) Since I beheaded what I can do and I DO NOT have to wait? I have to stay in the same map, I can not make myself kill by others, I can not kill others, but can I advance the time? Do you go online? And what else? 4) If I'm waiting for it to be reborn, can I make the graves online or if I die, do Regents make the rebirth of the Stitch anything? I would like to have explained these points well thanks.
One of my most persistent nemeses in Seregost had wound up with about 4+ different scars, including one Legendary scar. He had the one that gave him the title "the Plague-Bringer", and by the time that he died for good, he had a missing leg, a missing arm, a missing eye, and the legendary tier poisoned scar. I was actually very sad when I saw that he was one of the Captains that Zog turned into an Undead, since by then, I had been hoping that he would cheat death just one last time so that I could recruit him. I got attached to him even though he was an enemy since he always seemed to show up in a way that had me fighting him in a fair one-on-one duel, and he cheated death no less than 6 times.... Before Zog turned him into an Undead, I last saw him when he ambushed me atop the walls of my Fortress in Seregost, which actually gave me a sort of Star Wars "Duel of the Fates" vibe, where it was just him and me in one final duel to the death.
Great video. I've always wondered how it worked. Rather than risking it and triggering on my gameplay, I just recruit uruks from online invasion whenever I find one.
One time i had uruk with metal face, pale skin, burned and stiched hands... He was titled as the undead, and when i was killing him 5th time he said that he will come back... BTW, can't wait for special ones... only brokenshield and forsaken comes to my mind
Just go crazy and creative with your kills. Then wait and see if the nemesis system will reward you for it! Little tip, use online vendetta's more often to pass time in your world while being active in someone else's. Captains can be triggered into spawning when you come back
This explains why I didn't get many Uruk's coming back for revenge or to save me. We didn't have enough interactions beforehand. Also thanks for the info on how to get these various scars. When I play Shadow of War again, I will try these all out.
I have a few of these. Never understood what qualifies for them. It's pretty self explanatory but always appreciate video that defines the specific qualifications that help an outline the randomness of the RNG mechanics for games like Shadow of War that rely almost entirely upon it.
Hey, I appreciate the comment! I recommend you visit the reddit link I left in the description for more up-to-date information. Some of the things in the video were changed in patches that came afterwards.
Thanks for this video. Trying my best to get the purification scar for my last 3 play throughs. They just stay on the army screen for a whole day, and then disappear
True, we'll see how the dlc turns out. One thing that I think could help you: explore the steam community screenshots of the game, people enjoy to post the uruks they find. I browse there sometime to see what uruks people post, some key words I use to help in the research are "uruk", "orc", "olog", "nemesis", "bodyguard", tribe names sometime helps, sometimes even specific names bring some nice uruks, like broken shield, or scorpion, sorting by recent is better to get unfiltered screenshot which might get cool looking uruks... well, it might help you get an idea if you think you missed some uruks.
I had a Stitched Olog by god the most persistent SOB I've over fought he refused to die, and it was on a first time meeting too, dude came back 5 times, yes 5.
I have the worst luck with this system, I once had an olog who killed me 6 times, I lobbed off his head, and... no stitch... Then the other day I killed some random orc the first time i met him, I kid you not he cheated death 4 TIMES.
I remember my first arch Nemesis,, The Undying Dark blade,, he was legendary and was a machine I didn't have a ring so I had to kill him I kinda missed him
I'd like to add that bruises can show up on Ologs through pit fights, mine got a bruised right eye scar after coming back to life. He'd been defeated by another olog. They have blunt weapons afteral so this can create bruisings on your captains
This reminds me of this one machine lad who just kept coming back. I bodied him easily the first time thinking nothing of it. Then he ambushes me during a mission. His name was now Puüg the machine. He "died," a few more times, each time becoming more made of metal than last. It was cool.
Golden Sekona I once shot a captain in the eye. He returned and said my arrow made him blind. He still had both eyes. Thanks monolith for creating a scar you can't physically see.
I tend to get the stitch more often when I use the Wraith kill ranged attack, or when I kill an Olog who betrayed me using a brutal execution (If it's not brutal I just lop off arms and legs)
I had and uruk come from shadow of mordor, kruk the black, after i killed him he turned into kruk the machine, half of his face was metal, i killed him again and he returned again but this time he looked like leatherface, his face wasn't even moving while talking, completely stitched together
You know the really crazy infected one he showed. I had that one but the orc also had a burn on his face which wa pretty sweet :o it's weird I can cut there heads off blow them up but I always feel bad shaming orcs 😂
After all these years, someone found a way to knock Ologs off of ledges, so it might be possible to make those scars appear in gameplay! In the video TearOfGrace posted today, he made it happen at 21:20, apparently with throwing daggers at point blank range on a captain backed up against a cliff.
There is another variation 7:27 there is little chance when they will capture your fortress and overlord when you try to save your follower he can get amputated leg.
I remember the best orc I ever had was a berserker who was enraged by fire, immune to fire and had fire weapons. He killed me so many times until I recruited him
I had an orc from the beginning of the game cheat death. He started off as Prak Bloodhound and died in the arena, returned as the survivor I then threw him off a cliff, he then gained a sick bane mask and became known as Lock Jaw. I tried to throw him again, but the poison killed him first, he returned with a legendary scar and became ‘The Poisoned’ He was then killed by my graug multiple times before I broke his will and recruited him, he died in the fight pits and never came back
So it’s been a while, and I feel I have a better grip on how to play the game, but... is there any value in playing Gravewalker? Are scars more likely to occur? The loot? I know I don’t have to restart the game if I don’t want to and I do want to continue the world I’m in now. One benefit I can see is that the orcs I manage to turn to my side will most likely be made of tougher stuff
I'm still playing this game even in this day and some orcs either died and came back without a single scar on there body or with a bag over there face. The other scars I may get.
I havent played shadow of war yet, but in mordor, there was an orc named dushrak who kept on killing me and killing me, but i finally killed him. Then, that VERY same day, he popped up and cheated death, barely an hour later! Luckily that time he was alone and i coul spam stun into finisher but still, INSANE.
Limited scars that is bullshit, I dislike how Monolith crippled their end game by limiting max level orcs ability to learn and train new abilitys. This game is not designed for max level play and online conquest is too harsh for most players who wants to risk hours of time invested the online community never existed because of this. Risking a players time invested is bad design, great video tho looking forward to the special scars.
Very nice work. Four years ago I documented this in the first game: www.reddit.com/r/shadowofmordor/comments/2iym1h/all_uruk_injury_types/ and was frustrated there wasn't anyone else interested in this stuff. So really great to see someone finally did all the hard work and showed off this awesome game mechanic!
I saw someone who had a captain that was The Bloated and then he became The Flame of War. His right side was disgusting and bloated while his left side was burned. I tried to recruit him but one of my captains killed him before I could get to him
there was a legendary orc with title undying, he states that a necromancer wont let him die. the person who fought him killed him many many times. some of the last few times, he states just let him die.
6:03 I get an Orc with this Scar, he was my favorite Orc and I upgraded him, early ago he betrayed me and I shamed him, he became crazy and saying only "I know, I know that I know" repeatedly, them I put him to protect my Tower wandering for any player who invade see this Captain
3 months of work. Like ten times I thought the guide was ready, and then a new scar would happen. Also, this project made me hate Forthog. He kept saving me even after I uninstalled him. Ugh...
Here is the guide to the written guide ar reddit: www.reddit.com/r/shadowofmordor/comments/7sz550/scars_guide_for_shadow_of_war/
This one has a lot more details, including bugs, and things to do or not do.
I hope this sheds some light over the bugs that still plague this feature, and hopefully Monolith fixes them.
Uruk's Hollow rip you
Uruk's Hollow 10\10
ooh this was awesome
Thanks I need the MACHINE and THE BEAST
Are you able to stack scars? Like for example can an Olog lose his eye to an elf-shot and get slashes across his face from beast attacks?
Welcome to Build-A-Orc
An*...
Sorry
Clams no, because that would be grammatically incorrect. “An” would make sense in this context because “Orc” starts with a vowel. Besides, Build-An-Orc sounds and flows better than Build-A-Orc
Revenger Cannon Ight coach ✊🏽
Exactly
Do you also have to shove a pipe on his ass to get the stuffing in? I don't want to Google that.
I think it would be cool that there'd be a game where you get to play as an Uruk, starting from rock bottom and slowly make your way to the top till you become a leader. Where you could challange or hunt other Uruks to further your own goal, kill them or reqruit them to join you, and fight kingdoms to claim dominance of the land. And ofcourse be able to invite your friends to hang out or help out.
So an orc version of Talion pretty much
That should be online
To make it Lore friendly *if* said Game were made... they should make it to where you can Choose which Era you play as an Orc or Olog ;D!
Example: The 1st age during Morgoth's Reign, 2nd Age during the Forging of the Rings ;), or Even the Angmar Wars in the Witchkings army.... hell even the War of The Dwarves and Orcs of Gundabad/Misty Mountains ;D
I would pay *good cheese* for such a Game ;)
#RIPChristopherTolkien
There are mods for Mount and Blade that do exactly that. You start as the lowliest infantryman and climb the ranks while following your lord into battle. You even get paid wages and everything.
I feel the same way. I think there should be a stand alone game set in Shadow of War where you can create and play as a completely custom Uruk captain, starting from being a lowly grunt to becoming a captain and then becoming a leader that could take part in the siege of Talion's fortress in Seregost that he lost in the Blade of Galadriel DLC.
Furthermore, I think it would also be cool if you could take your favorite follower in Shadow of War and import him to the stand alone game to either be the first Uruk you play as, or be the Overlord of the fortress in Seregost that you fight when you're sieging it.
I want a legendary variant of uruk that tries to mimic Talion in his fighting style and personality.
That would be awesome
We could call him "The Talion"
There is one! He’s called “The Shadow”, he thinks himself to be Talion’s shadow
@@nou5173 yeah my best cloak came from hogg the shadow
There is an necromancer orc called Gravewalker, who claims to be the original, and comes back to life after death.
seeing the bag head, my first thought was immediately Kruk Bloodaxe...
lmfao i know right. I had that motherfucker on me since shadow of mordor. He kept coming back 100 times over.
I never ran into him I wish I did
Who likes red? THIS GUY
only OGs remember how he was castrated after he was branded
Borg bloodaxe was my nemisis till the end game nemisis fight in HSadow of Mordor
I had a stich Olog return 17 TIMES! 17 dammed Mystic Chestplates all level 17
Haha, that's great. I mentioned in the reddit post that the Stitch has an abnormally high chance of coming back. They can totally keep returning from getting decapitated multiple times, although I never had one return that many times, damn.
And after that Zog ressurected him... At least he didn't drop the item...
Also thanks for noticing me :P
17th like.
I had a stich Olog return only once because I recruited him :D
Isildur123WOT
I didn't recruit mone becouse he only had mighty defenders and iron determination... And was dazed by arrows... And he was unbreakable from the begining, but we don't talk about it...
Attention all gamers: The Uruks need your help! they're in Mordor, and all they need to get the legendary scar is your mom or dads credit card, and the 3 wacky numbers on the back!
Dude why
Skalle I honestly was expecting a 5 year old to have put the numbers down
Not any more mysterious cat person :o
**** **** **** **** *** haha it sensors it

Sir Overlord I do not think it will happen but amazing idea
Maybe a rogue like esque mmo? Where all the uruks only really have 1 life, or atleast 2 if you are high level enough
Stolen
Se me hace algo estúpido ésto y por eso nadie lo ha hecho y jamás va a existir 😂
also if you let a slave kill you he will have the brand mark when he becomes a captain
OH HELL YES I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS!
OverEnglishMan I was hoping you followed Uruks hollow!
Potato Priorites He did mention that he got some info from the channel.
OverEnglishMan oh hello
I"M WITH YOU MY FAVORITE DECOUNT RANGER!
Fancy meeting you here D.R!
Likely important: if you go to settings you can turn off saviors making sure your target doesn’t die prematurely
Is there any way to give an Uruk an *emotional scar*
Steal their grog
make them go MEKMEKMEKMEKMEK xDDDDDDDDD

I cut a dudes head off and later you could see his head was sewn back on. Freaked me out because I didn't know that could happen.
The one thing that sucks about the cheating death system in this game is how drastically the chances of cheating death decreases, knowing how cool the nemesis system is.
I can fight a whole army of orcs 100s of times, and have 100s of a variety of interactions with them but none of them come back.

Yea you are right i have 150 hours in basic game and get like 15 cheat death but mostly during first 60 hours
I replaying a game I didn't finish and 4 guys came back I had no idea who fuck they where but their was a pirate bard so I'm happy
If they weren't super rare then they wouldn't feel as special though
@@jbetfifty5904 Thats true but there's just too drastic a chance for cheating death at the very start compared to how astronomically unlikely it is late game.

Even though this video is old I keep coming back trying to get all the scars and save them in my garrison, so thank you for making this video.
Intentas obtenerlas en tu juego avanzado nivel 80 y en el mismo juego todas las cicatrices?? O empiezas un nuevo juego para otra cicatriz diferente??

Decapitation will do it
I perma killed him the first time. He got crushed by a Graug and never got back up
My bad when i discover the game, he came back like 6 times lmao
@@Ghostrick74 I've never heard 6 times before. I thought the max he could come back was 2-3 times.
You forgot the forsaken/nameless one. They cheat death from bleeding out and get new voice lines, become legendary, betray you, and get the skull mask. How did a professional forget this!
That's a special scar, actually.
But it makes the captain legendary.
It did for me
All captains have a very small chance of becoming legendary at some point. It is likely your guy got extremely lucky and got upgraded when he leveled up.

@@DevonHHunter there is an option to disable savior in game.
I like the fact that story captains can cheat death. The last game had some really good story captains, so this time I can really experiment
This one Olog killed me and became overlord. We had a amputated metal claw arm right? I killed him and he became the stitch, but he didn't have the claw arm. He had just had a stitched up arm. Where did he get the new arm?
Frankenolog? There just laying around for some reason.
I mean, Talion DOES leave an abundance of body parts lying around. And it's not like their previous owners need them anymore.

I got the stitch by decapitating them when they were overlord in finishing blow so that's how I got him
Then he appears randomly, even in your newly attained fortress
One of my most persistent nemeses in Seregost had wound up with about 4+ different scars, including one Legendary scar. He had the one that gave him the title "the Plague-Bringer", and by the time that he died for good, he had a missing leg, a missing arm, a missing eye, and the legendary tier poisoned scar.

That was a well done and complete guide, thank you for actually making good content compared to most of RUclips right now.
I'm loving that legendary poisoned
Great video. I've always wondered how it worked. Rather than risking it and triggering on my gameplay, I just recruit uruks from online invasion whenever I find one.
Your guides and lists of interactions in this game are the best I've seen
This game has such awesome scars and amputations i really cant wait to scar my future captains and make them look absolutely badass
Uno por juego solamente así que tardarás años jajjajjahja😂
Wow this is incredible!!! Thank you so much for this! I know it took a lottttttt of work man. We all really appreciate it man!
Must have been really difficult to get this.
Thanks for your work.
Did you know that an olog can become a necromancer
Never had one myself but Jared did say that so not sure
Scherz YUBoi I find it one myself, he was a necromancer, resurrect his fallen warriors but he kill them again because he hate undead enemies....
How!?
Jake Cook i find it in a arena combat

One time i had uruk with metal face, pale skin, burned and stiched hands... He was titled as the undead, and when i was killing him 5th time he said that he will come back... BTW, can't wait for special ones... only brokenshield and forsaken comes to my mind
Just go crazy and creative with your kills. Then wait and see if the nemesis system will reward you for it! Little tip, use online vendetta's more often to pass time in your world while being active in someone else's. Captains can be triggered into spawning when you come back
I might be 3 years late but this is Gold.
This explains why I didn't get many Uruk's coming back for revenge or to save me. We didn't have enough interactions beforehand. Also thanks for the info on how to get these various scars. When I play Shadow of War again, I will try these all out.
I have a few of these. Never understood what qualifies for them. It's pretty self explanatory but always appreciate video that defines the specific qualifications that help an outline the randomness of the RNG mechanics for games like Shadow of War that rely almost entirely upon it.
Hey, I appreciate the comment! I recommend you visit the reddit link I left in the description for more up-to-date information. Some of the things in the video were changed in patches that came afterwards.
Thank you, I‘ve been looking for this since the game came out!
With the wrathe skin you could possibly make Azog the defiler
My favorite orc 9:40 "The Unashamed" My favorite line of his " I came to put you ashame not me."
Thanks for the great video Mr. Hollow.
Thanks for this video. Trying my best to get the purification scar for my last 3 play throughs. They just stay on the army screen for a whole day, and then disappear
I been waiting for a vid like this man cheers
Thank you for helping me get stormbringer
Dude your channel is amazing. I hope you keep uploading more videos.
Vengo del futuro y este canal está más muerto que...así que 🤣😂👎🏼
THANK YOU SO MUCH
The brand scar also happens when a slave kills you, the captain will keep his slave brand
Oh, man, great job as always. Does Galadriel's dlc add more uruk features? It be a shame if they only added the story and no new fella to explore.
I have no idea. The DLC isn't out yet.
True, we'll see how the dlc turns out. One thing that I think could help you: explore the steam community screenshots of the game, people enjoy to post the uruks they find. I browse there sometime to see what uruks people post, some key words I use to help in the research are "uruk", "orc", "olog", "nemesis", "bodyguard", tribe names sometime helps, sometimes even specific names bring some nice uruks, like broken shield, or scorpion, sorting by recent is better to get unfiltered screenshot which might get cool looking uruks... well, it might help you get an idea if you think you missed some uruks.
They actually made the poison scar look decent for once. To bad I cant stack it witch wraith to make them look like an undead
Thnx I’ve wanted to have the beast for so long
I had a Stitched Olog by god the most persistent SOB I've over fought he refused to die, and it was on a first time meeting too, dude came back 5 times, yes 5.
I have the worst luck with this system, I once had an olog who killed me 6 times, I lobbed off his head, and... no stitch...
Then the other day I killed some random orc the first time i met him, I kid you not he cheated death 4 TIMES.
💀
Great work on the video. Very in depth! Thanks.👍
3:27
That is the scariest looking Olog I have ever seen, good god…
Then u haven't seen some of the ologs I have
I remember my first arch Nemesis,, The Undying Dark blade,, he was legendary and was a machine I didn't have a ring so I had to kill him I kinda missed him
I'd like to add that bruises can show up on Ologs through pit fights, mine got a bruised right eye scar after coming back to life. He'd been defeated by another olog. They have blunt weapons afteral so this can create bruisings on your captains
This reminds me of this one machine lad who just kept coming back. I bodied him easily the first time thinking nothing of it. Then he ambushes me during a mission. His name was now Puüg the machine. He "died," a few more times, each time becoming more made of metal than last. It was cool.
9:46 I only ever got the unashamed when I shamed guys that looked and sounded cool but turned lame when they became unashamed
So much detail in this game
I had a "the poisoned" captain that I cleaved and he came back as an uruk with the head of "the poisoned" and the body of "the machine"
Thats cool as shit
Olog wraith looking fire 🔥
I just subbed love your work dude keep it up
*Shoots Captain in the leg to kill him*
*Captain Returns*
“That arrow you put in me took my eye.”
Golden Sekona I once shot a captain in the eye. He returned and said my arrow made him blind. He still had both eyes. Thanks monolith for creating a scar you can't physically see.
Did you know that some legendary scars can stack. Flame of war + blight
Once I saw an Uruk that could spawn spiders. He was full of spiderwebs on his body.
tfw you start a new playthrough on Brutal and you somehow manage spawn not just the Machine, but the Flame of War *and* the Blight in Minas Ithil. xD
I've seen the stitch more than the beast
I love Closed Captions on your videos haha
Awsome video as always
I tend to get the stitch more often when I use the Wraith kill ranged attack, or when I kill an Olog who betrayed me using a brutal execution (If it's not brutal I just lop off arms and legs)
Thank you, it was worth the wait.
Wow Ar Benu looks amazing
I had and uruk come from shadow of mordor, kruk the black, after i killed him he turned into kruk the machine, half of his face was metal, i killed him again and he returned again but this time he looked like leatherface, his face wasn't even moving while talking, completely stitched together
You know the really crazy infected one he showed. I had that one but the orc also had a burn on his face which wa pretty sweet :o it's weird I can cut there heads off blow them up but I always feel bad shaming orcs 😂
5:51 i did got a uruk with no eye!Thanks,Uruk's Hollow!
so you got to wait 25 minutes in game time right if so does advancing time help and wont a cap take the place of the dead one?
is there a microtransaction scar
Owen Butternubbs The orcs will have money bursting our from their whole body, their teeth are gold and they eyes are diamonds.
Yeah an orc with no credit card
After all these years, someone found a way to knock Ologs off of ledges, so it might be possible to make those scars appear in gameplay! In the video TearOfGrace posted today, he made it happen at 21:20, apparently with throwing daggers at point blank range on a captain backed up against a cliff.
There is another variation 7:27 there is little chance when they will capture your fortress and overlord when you try to save your follower he can get amputated leg.
I remember the best orc I ever had was a berserker who was enraged by fire, immune to fire and had fire weapons. He killed me so many times until I recruited him
I had an orc from the beginning of the game cheat death. He started off as Prak Bloodhound and died in the arena, returned as the survivor I then threw him off a cliff, he then gained a sick bane mask and became known as Lock Jaw. I tried to throw him again, but the poison killed him first, he returned with a legendary scar and became ‘The Poisoned’ He was then killed by my graug multiple times before I broke his will and recruited him, he died in the fight pits and never came back
So it’s been a while, and I feel I have a better grip on how to play the game, but... is there any value in playing Gravewalker? Are scars more likely to occur? The loot? I know I don’t have to restart the game if I don’t want to and I do want to continue the world I’m in now. One benefit I can see is that the orcs I manage to turn to my side will most likely be made of tougher stuff
A day until this video is 3 years old
I'm still playing this game even in this day and some orcs either died and came back without a single scar on there body or with a bag over there face. The other scars I may get.
What about "The Ruined" ? His face is half rotten away.
I havent played shadow of war yet, but in mordor, there was an orc named dushrak who kept on killing me and killing me, but i finally killed him. Then, that VERY same day, he popped up and cheated death, barely an hour later! Luckily that time he was alone and i coul spam stun into finisher but still, INSANE.
Limited scars that is bullshit, I dislike how Monolith crippled their end game by limiting max level orcs ability to learn and train new abilitys. This game is not designed for max level play and online conquest is too harsh for most players who wants to risk hours of time invested the online community never existed because of this. Risking a players time invested is bad design, great video tho looking forward to the special scars.
You should make a list of Captains Warchiefs and Overlords you have encountered.
Faceless looks cool, too bad it's so hard to get.
I found a uruk that had someone skin sewn all over his body and he kept on saying I am the tower.
He was tough too
I got a "the infested" from shaming a captain who I hit with morgoth flies, he's one of my overlords now
Very nice work. Four years ago I documented this in the first game: www.reddit.com/r/shadowofmordor/comments/2iym1h/all_uruk_injury_types/ and was frustrated there wasn't anyone else interested in this stuff. So really great to see someone finally did all the hard work and showed off this awesome game mechanic!
Can you do a video about title changes?
I saw someone who had a captain that was The Bloated and then he became The Flame of War. His right side was disgusting and bloated while his left side was burned. I tried to recruit him but one of my captains killed him before I could get to him
Si claro y luego despertaste jajajahajha🤣
The first grint that killed me became skun the machine and kept defying death up until the epilogue, i miss him
You should make a .PDF About your guide, fully explained with pictures!
6:41 And by "malfunction" you mean "they get medical treatment, but it doesn't last long before they have to seek further medical treatment."
You've missed "of the spiders" when you kill them with spiders instead of morgai flies they return as that
Of the Spiders isn't a scar-type. Captains with that tittle spawn randomly by themselves.
@@UruksHollow ahhh I thought I got mine through killing one with spiders
there was a legendary orc with title undying, he states that a necromancer wont let him die. the person who fought him killed him many many times. some of the last few times, he states just let him die.
6:03 I get an Orc with this Scar, he was my favorite Orc and I upgraded him, early ago he betrayed me and I shamed him, he became crazy and saying only "I know, I know that I know" repeatedly, them I put him to protect my Tower wandering for any player who invade see this Captain
Any chance you can make a guide on getting captains with the Necromancer trait?
