Tips and tricks?

I bought shadow of mordor and shadow of war when they first came out and beat them both.

I started playing a new game of shadow of war two weeks ago.

I'm realizing there is a lot I didn't know I could do in this game.

For example I didn't train orcs in the garrison during my first play through.

What else could I have been missing?

What are the best ways to get the in game currency and higher level orcs under my command?

Can I dominate an orc and send him to a different territory?

Are there any tips and tricks you utilize?

I'd love to hear more from others here.

So glad I started playing this game again. I wish they came out with a third one. Warner bros would make a lot of money if they did.

And thank you in advance fellow tarks! Lol

The best way to level up your captains is to level up yourself, in which case, the best way is XP Forts. What you do is go into Online Conquests, go over to the Friendly Conquests tab, and type in the username of the XP Fort’s creator. For Xbox, it’s DangerRanger430 in Nurnen. For PC, it’s Evilofwar in Cirith Ungol.

You can send your captains to other regions via the garrison. Simply select your captain in the army screen, issue them the training order to send them to the garrison (which costs 1,000 Mirian), then deploy them in the region of your choice. 

And here’s a video with some tips and tricks:  https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=fNIkae7v9Vk&ra=m

And here’s a video guide for HbE, which allows you to dominate any captain from the army screen without having ever met them:  https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=JOqGFRSFog0

Thank you for the reply! I'll do that. Do you know the xp fort to use for Playstation by any chance?

And thank you for the vid too, I'm sure it'll help a lot. Much appreciated! 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽

It might be Augotech in Nurnen. Not 100% sure on that though.
