How the heck do you beat "Combat Masters?"

[Hrothgar]

Can't counter, can't combo, can't finisher...

Oh, and he's also immune to range and stealth. I had a 170 hit-streak on this guy and it only took off 5% of his health.

[Etny2k]

I saw a video where he showed a picture of the mob with some weaknesses listed, maybe search for that.

[Raven]

Yeah, my nemesis seems to be an archer that is immune to all that. But he's afraid of fire! So, I guess each time I want to kill him, I need to lure him towards a bonfire? Otherwise, it's just 1-2 strikes then I have to vault over him and repeat.

[Aeon]

You could try attack with a mount, if he isn't immune to it too, or if he is afraid something use that.

[BluB3rry]

Fear them. Gatehr information what they fear use it against them that simple,.

[germality]

If he's afraid of fire that's your easy kill. =) There's usually a fire close by. It might not be right next to where you are but you shouldn't have to kite him far to find a fire.

You will have to weaken them another way via Bees or Fire or Caragors. Then you can damage them as much as you like. I had a captain that was immue to Finishers, Stealth, Ranged & Counters.

Here what you need to face all type of captain:
Normal Combo + Stun or Wraith Blast
It will be more efficient if you have these sword rune:
- Storm of Battle (Epic, Boosts all sword damage by 50%)
- Mighty Rage (Epic, Increases the stun and knockdown durations on melee attacks.)
- Tower of Defence (Epic, Increases Hit Streak Reset Time +10 Seconds)
- Wraith and Ruin (Epic, Increases the stun and knockdown durations on Wraith Fresh)

Stun with E. Or vault over him. Follow with flurry. And explosions.

I'm 99% sure that combat masters don't take damage from flurries. So anything that stuns them does minimal damage.

What level was the warchief in the video? I've gone against lvl 20 combat masters, and it certainly seems like the flurry hits do next to no damage. I've done the flurry 15-20 times and saw no real drop in health.

Also, it's pretty rare that you're isolated with a warchief like in the video - usually, there are a lot of other orcs and uruks fighting you at the same time. Spamming the flurries becomes... tricky.

[Hrothgar]

Ah, he's not actually finishing the flurry. I once flurried a captain till my hitstreak reached 200 and I had only taken off 5% of his health.
