Last update: 11 May 2016
Middle Earth: The Shadow of Mordor does not provide you with too many collectibles but, all in all, there are there are several tens of them in the game. Of course, it is a good idea to find them on a regular basis.
The first category are Ithildin runes, which come in the number of 32. To locate the runes, use the Wraith mode, because they are easier to be spotted then. A complete list of the runes has been provided later in this guide. For each rune, you receive gold.
Another category are the Artifacts, and there are 42 of them in the game. Also in this case, it is recommended to use the Wraith mode, while exploring the area. A complete list of artifacts has been provided in another part of this guide. Finding each artifact is rewarded with gold. Apart from that, it is a good idea to view them in the inventory and locate the spot, where the memory connected with it can be viewed.
