Sauron's influence contained within Mordor. However, he informs her that a new warchief is leading a massive army and has attacked many of his fortresses. Talion tasks Eltariel with defending one of his remaining forts while he goes to defend another fort in Seregost. Eltariel manages to recruit several new tribes of orcs to fight for her and she successfully defends her fort from enemy attack, though Seregost falls. A pair of rogue Nazgûl arrive, revealing they are the ones leading the new orc army, as they plan to take advantage of Sauron and the Witch-king's weakness to take over Middle-earth. After recapturing Seregost, Eltariel and Talion pursue the Nazgûl twins to their stronghold, where Eltariel is able to defeat both of them. Despite their defeat, Talion begins to succumb to the temptation of Isildur's Ring, forcing Eltariel to battle him. Though Eltariel is victorious, Talion tells her that he will inevitably be resurrected by Sauron. Afterwards, Eltariel continues to battle the forces of Mordor until she witnesses the destruction of the One Ring. Upon seeing Celebrimbor's spirit freed from Sauron, Eltariel decides to track him down.
465:'s memories, and complete "Shadows of the Past" quests, which are challenges based on Celebrimbor's memories. Each of four of the five regions has a fortress operated by an overlord. Players must lay siege to these fortresses, and maintain control after capturing them. Each fortress has a "fortress level", which indicates how strong the warchiefs stationed inside the fortress are and how well fortified a fortress is. Players can send in their own followers to capture the fortress, and the combined strengths of their followers are reflected by the player's own "assault force level". If the fortress level and assault force level are similar, both sides would be even in strength, resulting in an even fight. After a fortress invasion has started, Talion and his followers must capture victory points, and kill the overlord in the throne room. Players can then appoint one of their followers to become the new overlord of the fortress, and improve their fortress with siege upgrades. Defense missions become available following a successful fortress conquest. After completing the game's main campaign, players can complete 968:. Lead designer Chris Hoge explained that the best relationship between Talion and orcs is similar to a roller coaster, one that is filled with "ups and downs". He added that the more trouble an orc caused to the player, the more rewarding it would be for players when they eliminate that orc later in the game. This created a "revenge loop", where the player needs to know how to exploit an orc's weakness and break the loop. The game introduced a system named "player interaction score" (PIS), which tracks how much players interact with each individual orc in the game. The orc that a player interacts with the most is more likely to "cheat death" as they return to life to taunt the player. Certain orc archetypes were designed to appear only once per game. For instance, an orc with "the Claw" title is one whose arm has been dismembered by Talion, but nonetheless returns to face Talion with a metal prosthetic. According to Hoge, the dialogues and the in-game text were written to be "as natural and shareable as possible", so that players would share these personalized moments with their friends. 510:
captain to betray the warchief in a subsequent mission. Following the death of a warchief, captains will battle each other for the position. Players will then unlock a Nemesis mission, allowing players to assist Talion's followers in battle to ensure their success. These warchiefs will then betray the overlord during fortress assault battles, thus making the fortress siege easier for Talion. There are a number of Nemesis missions, allowing Talion to perform tasks like exacting revenge on a captain who has previously killed him, or intervening in conflicts between orcs. Friendly orcs will also remember a specific encounter, saving Talion when he was about to be killed by a hostile captain, or attempting to take down a specific enemy captain on his own. Friendly orcs can also participate in fight pits, in which they battle another orc to death in order to earn gear and level up. However, friendly followers may also betray Talion. The player is able to transfer their top Nemesis and their most loyal follower from
491:, as part of Sauron's armies, the game will begin tracking the ones that have notable achievements within the game, such as killing the player, or surviving an encounter with the player. Enemies in the game will remember their interactions with Talion, and taunt him when they encounter him again later. Hostile orcs may also return, scarred, with some even cheating death to exact revenge on Talion. Once the player dies, orcs will advance up the hierarchy and become captains, who are characters with unique attributes, strengths, weaknesses, and names. Intelligence on these captains can be collected through interrogating characters named "worms". Enemy orcs will also ambush Talion, which is one of the random events that can happen at any point of the game. Players, upon learning a captain's traits, can avoid tactics that aggravate or enrage a captain, and exploit their weaknesses, causing them to be dazed and leaving them defenseless. Captains in the game will also adapt, as the 660:
contain the darkness within Mordor. Deciding to put his fate in his own hands, Talion picks up the ring Isildur was wearing to preserve his own life. He uses the power of Isildur's Ring to assault and seize Minas Morgul, defeating the Witch-king in the process. Talion takes possession of the Palantír and observes Celebrimbor and Eltariel making their assault on Sauron. The latter two manage to gain the upper hand and Celebrimbor attempts to dominate Sauron, only for Sauron to cut off two of Eltariel's fingers, one of which is adorned with the Ring of Power, and merge himself with Celebrimbor. As a result, Sauron and Celebrimbor remain trapped in Sauron's tower in the form of a flaming eye as their spirits continue to battle each other for dominance. Knowing he will not be able to resist the Ring, Talion decides to use Minas Morgul as a fortress to keep Sauron's forces contained in Mordor as long as he can.

regardless of their competency in the game, would get to experience the nemesis system, and create a nemesis that is "personable" and "memorable". The nemesis system was also expanded to include Talion's followers. A personal story for each orc continues after they have been recruited, as they will rescue Talion in his dying moments, deliver gifts to him, and sometimes betray him. According to de Plater, this allowed the nemesis system to further tell stories about "loyalty, betrayal and friendship", a process that does not necessarily include being killed by a hostile orc. By having orcs betray Talion, players are also given a target for revenge. When playtesting the game, the nemesis system sometimes generated unexpected results. Instead of correcting these issues, the team instead embraced these results and wrote extra dialogues for such outcomes.
526:. "Social Conquest mode" allows players to invade other players' fortresses and attempt to conquer them. This mode has two settings: friendly and ranked. Friendly allows players to invade someone's fortresses, without the risk of losing their army. Ranked, on the other hand, allows players to invade, but with a risk of losing some of their own orc followers permanently. When the game was released, players could purchase reward chests through the game's marketplace.

They can be used to either increase weapon's damage, Talion's health, or the amount of mirian Talion will gain through defeating enemies or completing quests.

However, another mercenary, Zhoja, betrays Serka and sends him to fight in an orc fighting pit. Baranor rescues Serka, who reasserts control over the Vanishing Sons and executes Zhoja. After repelling an orc attack, Baranor and Serka lead their army and seize Shindram, doing so by destroying the fortress's overlord, Takra. However, rather than hold the fortress, they leave a trap for the orcs sent to retake it. Baranor and Serka leave to seize more fortresses, deciding that 1093:(DLC) named "Forthog Orc-Slayer".
