Shadow of War is a massive game, and jumping into it can feel daunting. Here’s what you need to know to build a lasting, memorable relationship with your new orc buddies.
Don’t worry too much about the story
While you should chip away at the main quests from time to time, especially for the first act of the game, Shadow of War’s story is not the star of the show. Take time to explore the world. Meet as many random orcs as you can, because they will end up being the most memorable part of the experience.

Remember that every death matters
Whenever Talion dies, Shadow of Mordor’s internal clock presses forward. If an orc killed you, they will move up in rank and become stronger. Other orcs out on missions will have their quests resolved, or die in the process. Orcs shift on the totem pole, or learn new tricks. While the game always lets you come back from death, every change that happens as a result is permanent. You can’t just reload an earlier save. So, try not to die...unless you want the nemesis system to work its magic.
Look at your mini-map
Things like quests, Mirian, intel, collectables and more will be denoted here. The minimap also makes things like following orc tracks way easier.
Take back the Haedir towers
The first thing you should do on any new map is track down the Haedir so that you can do its little mini-game. Once you find all the points of interest at the Haedir, it will turn into a fast travel point.
Upgrade your skills
Different play styles will prioritize different skill unlocks, but some abilities are better than others. It’s a good idea to start by getting all the wraith skills. From there, you’ll want Caragor and Graug riding, fire detonation, freeze pin, shadow strike, elven ability, ground finisher, and of course, executions. I particularly love Hammer of Eregion, which freezes any enemy that you vault over.
Check out an orc’s profile
Information is your strongest weapon in Shadow of War. Before you take on any orc, make sure to press the “details” button. Here you will find an orc’s strengths, weaknesses, fears, and immunities. Keep all of that in mind before you head into battle: you don’t want to make the mistake of wasting a powerful move just to find out your target is immune to it. Pay particular attention to vulnerabilities that either daze or heavily damage your opponent, and exploit the hell out of them during battle.
Use your environment
Look around you. What do you see? Make use of it. Every area will have something Talion can weaponize, including fire, spider nests, caragor pens, and more. If your target is immune to any of these environmental elements, it’s still good to be aware of them, because that stuff can harm you, too.
