omnx-supak Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 (edited) How is this possible? I'm in Stage 10 and after defending Cirith Ungol (it was the third siege I've done) I got the trophy when I still had to defend Gorgoroth to end Shadow Wars. Also mentioning I have a friend that got the trophy after completing Stage 8. Is it possible that if you complete the sieges in a certain order, it could confuse the game and give you the trophy? UPDATE: Shadow Wars has been updated and it has significantly gotten easier and shorter. Because of that, I am now locking this thread.

Dessane Posted November 1, 2017 Share Posted November 1, 2017 This is really interesting but going to be an absolute pain to reproduce haha. Completing it at Stage 8 would have been a godsend, did they get the final cutscene or just the trophy? any chance you remember what order you did it in? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
omnx-supak Posted November 1, 2017 Author Share Posted November 1, 2017 Well it is impossible to watch the cutscene because it removed the missions from my quest menu. Yes I do have the order. Mine: Stage 1 - Cirith Ungol Stage 2 - Nurnen Stage 3 - Seregost Stage 4 - Gorgoroth Stage 5 - Cirith Ungol Stage 5 - Nurnen Stage 6 - Seregost Stage 6 - Gorgoroth Stage 7 - Nurnen Stage 7 - Seregost Stage 8 - Nurnen Stage 8 - Cirith Ungol Stage 8 - Gorgoroth Stage 9 - Cirith Ungol Stage 9 - Seregost Stage 9 - Gorgoroth Stage 10 - Nurnen Stage 10 - Seregost Stage 10 - Cirith Ungol (Trophy Unlocked) Stage 10 - Gorgoroth (Removed from quests) My friend did the same order up to stage 8 but instead of defending he lost Gorgoroth on stage 4, 6, 8 and attacked it.

Dessane Posted November 1, 2017 Share Posted November 1, 2017 So it completed the quest for you without needing to finish it? Weird. Hopefully I (or someone else) will get some time to do the same order as you at some point to see if it’s recreatable. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DamnedEyez Posted November 3, 2017 Share Posted November 3, 2017 For me, the trophy popped before the last defense, when I changed the overlord. The quest and cutscene still required me to play the mission, but swapping in a new, more powerful uruk caused the trophy pop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rad1calleft Posted January 6, 2021 Share Posted January 6, 2021 Yeah this looked like it popped early for me as well. I only done 1 defence for each fortress including DLC & 1 recapture which then popped the trophy. So about 6 missions in total or thereabouts. (About 47 hours on the save) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cauvuh_Lakrwa Posted January 17, 2021 Share Posted January 17, 2021 It is definitely shorter. I was in stage 3, lost the last siege as a defender and after I recaptured the fortress the trophy popped. Note that I didn't complete stage 3, I still had to do a defend mission. In total I did 7 missions of which 1 failed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
