I'm guessing luck, and what Blue-knight said. Try sending a death threat to a level 15+ warchief.

Not sure but i suppose you have to send a L20 Warchief a Deaththreat(?) so that he become L25...

and he need to be a revenge kill, and you need to exploit rage/fear, and exploit a weakness.
You basically need 5 of the things that add +1.
And then you need to be unlucky enough to not get an epic rune.

If he is already Level 25 with a death threat you don't need to do that right?

Max level is 20. You need 5 +1 rune modifiers on the kill. The death threat gives you 1 of these. It only boosts them 5 power levels if under 20, and only up to 20 which has nothing to do with the +modifiers on the rune after.

No, whatever you do DO NOT send a death threat. That makes it pretty much 95% you'll get an epic rune. I just got the achievement today and it's pretty easy. (Do these steps in order)

1. YOU MUST DIE TO THIS URUK YOU WANT THE LEVEL 25 RUNE FROM. You kinda need to be on the 2nd map (Nurn I think it's called) or you can just die to 1 Uruk over and over again until he's level 20. I say you kinda want to be on Nurn because most of the captains there no matter what are already really high leveled and even some are already level 20.

2. Then you want to get the Worms (Green things on minimap) and get intel on the level 20. Check the intel this is VERY IMPORTANT. Find someone with a weakness, preferably an easy weakness like combat finishers but it doesn't matter AND THEY MUST HAVE A FEAR OR HATE. Like Hate of Burning or Betrayal or Fear of Burning.

3. Then after that you want to kill his Warchief master and any other bodyguards he has except for the one that's level 20. After you kill them, the level 20 will become Warchief. AGAIN DO NOT SEND A DEATH THREAT.

4. So now that the Uruk who has a weakness and fear/hate and is Warchief, set off his fear or hatred which follows into a very short cutscene, and then keep on killing him with for example a combat finisher.

5. Get level 25 Rune.

Are you sure the death threat counts as +1 after level 20? From what I've been reading, it's the following:
  • Knowing an Uruk's Strengths and Weaknesses
  • Exploiting an Uruk's Weakness
  • Exploiting an Uruk's Fear
  • Exploiting an Uruk's Hate
  • Getting a Revenge Kill on an Uruk that has killed you

I think so, but its largely cancelled out by the fact that the 40% increase to find an epic, results in the epic 90% of time.
As the person before you pointed out, it actually makes it harder.
Also on your list, Fear and Hate show up in game when you get kills as exploits fear/hate, so its 1 point, not 2 separate ones.
So combine those into the 1 it is, and add them being warchief to list.

Video of me doing it here: http://www.twitch.tv/smudgestream/c/5232856

Took maybe 30 minutes to setup and then get. Like others have said, do not use a death threat as you may get an epic rune instead :)

there is always a chance for the epic with warchiefs but death threat makes it bigger (maybe too big ^^)

Will you still get epics if you have all the epics?
INgabet Oct 5, 2014 @ 3:26am 
im currently farming lvl 25 runes for the best gear possible and its really easy.just have a warchief marked,have a diffrent unmarked warchief death threatened then duel him and expliot his weakness.thats +1 for death threat +2 for warchief +1for knowing the weakness and +1 for exploiting it
Thats how i get a lvl 25 rune every 5 minutes unless its an epic.

Nope.
Only thing left to do is farming lvl 25 Runes for the 100 % they provide.

20 (max) Power level
+2 Warchief
+1 Revenge
+1 Weakness kill
+1 Hate/Fear exploited
+1 Death Treath

Max possible is 26 lvl rune. For the achievement i would suggest against death threat as it boosts the chance for epic runes.
