reign of the olog hai?
so overall I would say from my experience ologs are just straight up the strongest captains. they often kill higher leveled orks in fighting pits, easily deal the most damage, are very dangerous when coupled with a swarm of grunts vs players, unblockable attacks, pretty much win vs other captains if they get enraged, an can take a ton of damage to down aswell. to me they just seem to be flat out better than any evenly leveled uruk captains. any thoughts? have you found any captains that seem to be able to take down an olog pretty well?

Not really. With good traits every class can defeat every class. I just had 2 legendary orcs to fight one was a normal captain with a single sword with good traits and an legendary olog with good traits. My Orc won

Hunter assassins with the Agile trait seem to be the best captains against ologs in my experience, and Shield captain Slayers seem to do alright as well. Other than that, ologs seem to be pretty dominant

Yeah, I do have a couple captains that slaughter Ologs in the fight pits. Any captain will win pretty much against any captain if they are enraged, so that isn't unique to Ologs.

They are very easy to deal with imo. it's just dodging for days. however, they are really good at stalling which makes them pretty handy in online fort defense.

My spear orcs can kill ologs really easily.

In my experience olog hai punch far above their actual level. I've seen olog beat captains ten levels above them in the fighting pits. the fact that they're attacks are unblockable is just to strong.

this guy may be on to something.. I've already built an entire fort with just olog though so... maybe the next fort will be hunter assasins. god I feel sorry for the ranger that tries to invade that ♥♥♥♥... **swing miss swing miss swing miss swing miss**

funny... I usually see the spear guys getting bodied by the olog. I think it might have something to do w/ the AI.. sometimes no matter what orks will just stand there an take hits from ranged guys.. ESPECIALLY if the ranged guy has a gang. the AI will almost always aggro the gang first while the ranged guy just hangs back an fires. then after the gang is dead the AI will sometimes just sit there an get hit...

I think ologs are the easiest to go against as a player as long as they arent enraged. There attack pattern is the same and there attacks are really easy to dodge. But against other uruks I find that on average they are a bit stronger but not op and still can lose to others.

Agree. Hit hit hit, slide through legs, hit hit hit, slide through legs, hit, stun, hit hit hit (if he got frozen - hit hit hit hit hit hit hit hit). Now repeat, haha.

Yeah, for a player dealing with an Olog is only really a challenge if they have an army backing them up, if they're on their own then at most it'll just be a time consuming fight if they have a lot of immunities. They even put you in slow motion when the Ologs are attacking to give you more time to dodge, it's kinda hilarious

Yeah so long has they don't have battle frenzy or other trait that make them upset easily, it becomes vdry easy to fight them

A large group of Ologs can be a real pain to fight since you can't jump over them. If you get an Olog captain with Olog warriors at his side, he can be a real pain to take down.

Can agree with the Ologs being tough. Although, if they have fears/weaknesses for an element, they can be quite easy to take down, at least in the fighting pit.

My perfect Overlord: Olog, enraged by acrobatics, immune to frost, fire, and poison. Great Strength. Everything after that is just a bonus. Maybe a commander so he is constantly spawning more guards? Nah, some builds could turn that against him. I think Tank might be better. Harder to kill, yush.

I have this really OP Uruk overlord in one fort though that just has me BAFFLED. He is unstoppable. I've been trying for days to get him killed in the online fightpits but nothing works! He has garbage skills. He is a berserker with curse warder (not to be confused with curse master) and epic rage (which he basically never uses). And yet he has -insane- damage output despite having no skills that should be giving it to him. He is berserker but only really gets enraged by mortal wounds, so he is doing mad damage just in his base form and I don't know why.

I am convinced there are hidden stats besides skills that make some Uruk just hit harder than others or take more damage and he just won the lottery.

I rather fight an olog with good ♥♥♥♥ than a defender with good ♥♥♥♥.
