Why Is 20 The Uruk Power Limit?
Just wondering, I thought it might of been cool if you could jsut level your Uruk up to like 100 and have them stomp on every other Uruk in existance.

I believe the level is tied in with the progresive leveling of Runes, but we could possibly get a level 100 system in the sequel :)

YOu can get runes upto level 25, FYI. As for why the Orcs or Uruk-Hai (spelling?) are limited to a level 20... There is DLC but its probably a cap the dev team thought would be good and did not realize people would spend hours in game to before doing story missions. I actually like manipulating the orc tree and killing off orcs without a fear or hatred I can use. My favorite is finding the orc or Uruk-Hai (spelling?) with the most fears, weakness, and worse stats and getting him promoted to war chief and having him max power - just to death threat him and kill him off haha...

The cap is to limit the power of runes I believe, if runes kept going up then they'd scale really weirdly, the level 25 runes are amazing if a little unwieldy to get.
Also if you want the level 25 runes you're better off not sending death threats as that raises the chance of getting Epic runes instead.

Correction, the max rune level i got so far is Lvl 26

I think it'll be uncapped in DLC.

Fully uncapped would be cool in a totally stupid way, I'd love it. Just a level 10,000 Uruk.

Yup, 26 is the max level for runes.
Level 20 + warchief (+2) + Knowing Weakness (+1) + Death threat (+1) + Revenge (+1) + Exploiting fear/hate (+1)

Anyway, if it was just limited to 20 for the sake of keeping rune levels at a max, they could have just let the game consider level 20+ uruk as being level 20 when it comes to dropping runes.

Well that revenge bit kind of sucks if there's no way to get that without dying first...

It doesn't work if you flee from them?

I don't know, but even then it's pretty weird.

DLC's are.

It would be good if they could put level cap of warchiefs at 100, leave runes where they are you already have enough power in my opinion (and I don't find game super easy) as far as level goes but vary power of runes more. Maybe in a DLC at least that would give more playability to the nemesis system.
