Venom | Outcast Rescue Missions Middle-earth: SoM Guide

Location: The Black Gate

Bonus Objective: Poison 3 Grog Barrels (Poison ability required)

Once you poison a barrel, get away from it quickly

Mission marker is on the top of a very high scaffolding, next to the Black Gate - you can climb up there using ladders. Before you start rescuing the five outcasts, first focus on the bonus objective (note: you need to have Poison ability). Inside the stronghold there are several grog barrels, so always pick the ones that are not being guarded. Once you come near a barrel, poison grog and quickly get away from there, because several orcs are likely to head that way. After drinking the poisoned grog, they will immediately die or start fighting one another, so you do not have to do anything else. Only after completing the bonus objective, should you try to get to the 5 captive outcasts (if there are orcs nearby, lure them away or kill them, e.g. with a bow). In the meantime, try not draw too much attention to yourself and avoid contact with Sauron's army, because extra fights may unnecessarily make the mission harder.

Mission rewards:

• 400 experience points
• 250 Mirian
• 50 Mirian - only if you complete the bonus objective
