Citadel Tower | Chapter 1 LotR: War in the North Guide

Last update: 11 May 2016

Fornost: Find Agandaur within the citadel

You begin in a small hall with a teleport on the left and some barrels, crates and a chest on the right. Search everything and then run up the high stairs.

Choose the right or left road and then use the glowing portal. Prepare for the fight with the boss of this chapter - Tharzog.

Fornost: Defeat Tharzog and his guards

Tharzog is a great orc chieftain whose attacks are very powerful. The fight will be long and difficult, so do your utmost. Remember about special abilities to do as much damage to the boss as you can. Also, don't forget about the healing potions!

Tharzog attacks in a traditional way but he also has two special attacks - a jump with a blow and taking an aerial sword swing. The latter is preceded by a roar, so you'll know when to dodge. The fight with the boss resembles the one with a troll - do as much damage as you can and at the same time keep your eyes open for his blows. If you see he attempts to - dodge quickly.

To be honest, Tharzog's guards are the real problem. It's pointless to fight them as new will appear in the place of the killed ones. That's why, see to it that they are busy fighting with your companions while you fight with Tharzog.

Don't forget about Andriel's healing sphere. You can also fight with Tharzog using a ranged weapon, which is much safer, though a bit more onerous, because not only must you try to aim at the head, but also one of the enemies might get into the line of fire. Also remember about healing your companions if they fall. When your or some other hero gets hit during the process of healing, it will be stopped!

After the long fight you'll finally kill Tharzog and you'll unlock the [ACHIEVEMENT] Tharzog's Bane for that. Getting rid of the guards will not cause any trouble then. Before you use the glowing portal, run around the round hall, breaking all crates and barrels on the way, and also search some heaps of items. Then you'll finish both this level and Chapter 1.
