The Red Tide (sword) | Weapon Missions Middle-earth: SoM Guide

Location: Nurnen Peninsula (Nurn)

Secondary objectives: You need to execute, at least two Defenders in melee.

Requirements: The Execution ability

Execute, at least, two orcs with shields

The primary objective of this mission is to clear all five areas in the docks, of the enemy forces, where you could first focus on the secondary objective, before you take to the mission itself. While fighting the Defenders (the shielded orcs) search for opportunities to bring up the multiplier. After you reach the value that allows you to execute a special attack, (8x, by default), turn towards a defender and press the key combination that launches the Execution. Repeat for the second defender. Only then, focus on securing the docks - you can fight regular fights, sabotage the elements of the surroundings, attack the opponents at a long range or brand to make the elite opponents fight for you. After you have cleared the area, leave the village to end this mission.

Rewards for completing the mission:

• 400 experience points
• 500 gold pieces (Mirian)
• 50 gold pieces (Mirian) - only if you have completed the secondary objective
