Endless Shadow Wars - How Do They Work?

[Kodiak412]

I am quite a bit away from finishing stage 10 but how do the endless shadow wars work?

Does each castle get a new perment mission icon to either attack or defend each castle?

I hope that is how it works and then you trigger the mission when you want to start. Thanks

Yea that is exactly how it works, but first you must finish stage ten in order to unlock them in all regions
Unfortunately they arent as good as the shadow war segments, the shadow war defenses always had at least one legendary but the defenses in the endless sieges rarely have a legendary

Thanks for the reply Black!

Pity about the underwelming defenders. Some of those Leg War Chiefs put up a good fight. :)

The reason there are fewer Legendaries in Endless Shadow Wars is to prevent a glitch-grind of the game's Legendaries.


Think about it, you can just start the Siege, kill the Legendaries, and then end the Mission, let the Fort fall into Sauron's control, and then ANOTHER Legendary becomes Overlord and you can siege the Fortress again and kill THAT Legendary.


It's basically a grind-fest if Legendaries were as common as that in Endless Sieges.

Yes sadly that is true. Maybe they could change the % chance of a Leg drop once you get to Endless Wars.

Kill that tough Leg and he only has a 25% chance of dropping a leg gear piece. Also if you do not get a Leg gear piece you get a white item. :)
