He possesses Talion and together they become the Gravewalker, an undead thing half elf, half human, that is hell-bent on bringing down Sauron’s minions and, eventually, the Dark Lord himself. Talion has to watch as his family is slaughtered, before his own throat is cut, all part of a blood ritual executed to call forth the wraith of the fabled elven lord Celebrimbor, who once forged the Rings of Power.Ĭelebrimbor, a creature thousands of years old, is of little compassion and that much more ambition. But when Mordor’s hordes storm the garrison all three of them are captured.
Talion’s got a wife who he loves dearly and a son he is very proud of and training to become an Orc-slayer like himself. Hero of the game is Talion, a ranger from Gondor, who is stationed at the Black Gate.
Bursting Toxin gets a little nasty but is nonetheless funĪ fascinating way to take it a little too far.I played Middle-Earth: Shadow of Mordor with great gusto, mainly thanks to the excellent and highly addictive Nemesis System that made each encounter intensely personal and competitive.įor those who haven’t played Shadow of Mordor, here’s a short recap. Talon Strike upgrade unlocks an earthquaking groundstrike that stuns all surrounding enemies. Between this and the Glaive, cutting through a horde essentially becomes a matter of timingįloat like a butterfly, sting like a bee. Upgrade to unleash a ring of fire, frost or poison. Use a full Might bar to instantly clear some space. Bursting Arrow detonates campfires from a distance. Upgrade to unleash spiders or ghuls from the fire. Shadow Strike into a campfire to detonate it. Deadly Striker upgrade grants an additional strike with the Glaive, doubling the orcs Talion knocks downĪn oldie from the first game, and still just as good. Unlocks a spear that clears a swath of ground around Talion. Sweep orcs around like the garbage they are. 
Solves the most irritating aspect of the game, in my opinion. Celebrimbor will protect Talion as he performs a ground execution. It's about time that grumpy old elf helps out. Spectral Dash is ideal for quiet killing. Silent Runner upgrade eliminates all noise when Talion sprints - cruise easy through crowded streets. Stalk the streets like the spirit you are. Some change the game completely, others are fun to try for a bit, others are perfect for certain situations. Here are my top 10 abilities available on Middle-Earth: Shadow of War. The game’s follow-up, Shadow of War, expands on those abilities to create something ridiculously fun.The options to incite chaos are countless. Middle-Earth: Shadow of Mordor provides the means for Talion to progress into being unstoppable. Through that vengeance, a quest for peace.
