Unkillable Enemy.
His only weakness "Fear of Burning".
There nothing in the arena i can use to set him on fire.
I can lure in dogos but hes got "monster slayer" so they do ♥♥♥♥ all.
Invulnerable to range, so i cant hit the ♥♥♥♥♥♥ with fire arrows.
Combat master so i cant use my void powers on him nor can i do any kind of finishers.
Hes invulnerable to stealth so that's not an option.
hes a ranged fighter, with both summoner and inspiring presence.
as well as hes got this fun little thing called "vault breaker".
hes also battle hardened just for the cherry on top.

I'm genuinely ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ lost for words. his poison bolts one shot me despite me having maxed out my health.
I have tried to bait him away from the area to anything flammable or explosive to take advantage of his weakness but he wont follow me far enough.
Its super hard to hit him because every time i do he counters with a "strong" hit that i need to press space to doge, which is really hard as there's always like 20 other orcs around him because hes in a stronghold and they immediately call for reinforcements.
I genuinely cannot kill him, I've tried everything. Cant use my void powers, cant vault over to stun, cant use finishers, cant really charge up and use the void explosion thingy because he one shots me and its really hard to avoid every ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ enemy he spawns and makes attack me like 3 at a time. I've searched the whole area for anything and everything explosive or flammable and there seriously is nothing.

Any ideas?

PS. ♥♥♥♥ you Lorm.

Couple things that come to mind to try in case you haven't already:
- If he's a Warchief, try assigning as many branded bodyguards as you can, so they can fight alongside you.
- If he's not a Warchief, I think you can assign just one branded Captain on a mission against him.
-- Level up your branded orcs to max before you do the attempt.
- During the fight, focus on branding orcs, in an attempt to swarm him.

- There is an Epic rune for the Dagger that gives you immunity against poison. I think it's from a DLC, do take a look if you have it.

If it's not too much hassle, I'd like to request a screenshot of your problematic orc's Strenghts/Weaknesses screen, in case I can spot any other way.

Send a savefile- I can check if it's doable / glitched .......?
Or as binhimbo stated- a screenshot to start

How do I send you a screenshot? And he is a warchief, I also haven't unlocked the brand ability.
Even with the immune to poison rune he one shot me.

I actually managed to kill him, but I had to kite him so far too get him to a fireplace which I could blow up, and "activate" his fear of burning after that I just beat the everloving ♥♥♥♥ out of him. This took me 3 hours of attempts.

ah, Nice- congrats- and btw, if you want to send a screenshot- it's easier just to take it ingame (f12? I think), upload it via Steam after the gameplay- and copy-paste link to it in forum.

Good job!
Indeed sometimes the game creates an orc that is a grind to take down, I myself am not patient enough to try to lure them to fires, etc if they aren't in the immediate vicinity, but prefer to swarm them with branded instead.

heh, good ol' Spamming of the Uruk armies- I find it surprising though, lore-wise- if we got a capt who can block melee hits and is immune to ranged- they can still shoot and smack him with swords, but not the Mighty Deathless ranger? lol, strange :sufferme:
