Middle-Earth: Shadow of Mordor

Awesome game, but finding it very hard to kill the Warchiefs... I've been trying to get their body guards before hand, but usually end up swarmed with Uruks and getting killed. I've only been able to kill 2 Warchiefs so far, but unfortunately as I'm getting killed so often I'm losing interest.

Any tips on these please? Ta :)

Do some side missions to unlock skills/upgrade talents. Once you have the full dagger skill (can't remember what it's called) you can use that to kill all the mobs leaving you one on one with the Warchief :cool:

Also, prioritise upping your health.

Are you trying to kill the body guards during the war chief mission? If you know who they are (And you should via intel) then go and take them out before the mission even begins and then take of the war chief. Make sure you have full intel on the war chief and use it to your advantage.... oh and use the environment, So many people ignore Fires, Grog barrels, Hanging Meat, Caragore cages and Fly nests.

Got the new area unlocked last night and the brand ability.

Makes a nice change from mordor.

Brand is quite overpowered but great fun.

I didn't realise there was a new area? Does it look much different?

I'm still really enjoying this, especially as I unlock more things, I feel a bit more badass now. The shadow strike kill thing is great fun to use!

Find out their weaknesses first. If you are still having trouble do some other missions until you unlock a few more abilities.

All great advice cheers guys, much appreciated :)... will give this a go and hopefully I'll be able to progress.

I was initially going straight to the Warchiefs without anything before hand apart from my upgrades, but sounds like a bit more strategy is needed... I'll make sure I unlock a bit more too before trying again.
 
I would also unlock the steath kill skill first. It's way handy in boss fights. Going inv and steath kills loads if Orcs can swing the battle in your favour.
 
Nice! That sounds awesome... will have to try and get that one. Is it effective against captains too? I suppose that would depend on their strengths/weaknesses.

Very. Some cant be killed in combat so are tricky to kill by sneaking that just makes mince meat out of them and also if they cant be killed by stealth you can use it to take out most of the orcs around him.
