Is there anyway to prevent cheating death?
I have tried normal kills headshots stealth killing and executions(cleaving)
But with executions (F ones not ground ones) I find that even if the health of the captain is really low most of the times he sits on the floor then has his dialogue then with qte I kill him.Is there anyway that I can fully execute F execution if this would guarantee permanent death?

sight, for the sword vengor set thing or another execution challenge or its just to prevent dialogue? Try execution on a Caragor but if you want it for the first one (sword challenge) i doubt it will count. Or find someone else who isnt a tank xd. But i assume its for this stupid vengeress sword challenge so you will need luck if caragor execution doesnt work. Masochistic set. Or maybe brutalization with execution can works (2 power things filled)?

Not sure will work to prevent death cheating but if your power (barres, jauges? dont know english word) and if you have the skill unlocked, its same key as normal execution but more brutal and scare some enemies (need the power completly filled, seaching translation xd) . Power gauges?Need the 2 filled

Brutal execution can decapitate Captains so they won't cheat death. Shadow strike kill can decapitate as well but it doesn't do much damage so that captain has to have extremely low health for it to happen. Shadow strike kills are ranged damage.

You can also advance time to have that dead captain replaced by another orc captain so they can't cheat death or replace that dead captain with a captain from your garrison. As long as that dead orc is on the army screen he can cheat death unless it's just his head.

Decapitated olog captains are the only ones that can cheat death decapitated(low chance) but as a legendary stitched captain.

Op seems to ask about those tanks or vendetta guys who blabla before dying.

If possible, grab and throw all of them off roofs and cliffs when they're broken. Ologs and unbreakable captains don't count obviously.

the problem is even when I try to keep the execution with might until the captain health is really low(to perform a brutalization) still he gets finished by normal kill in which he just chops his arms off

I have something to add guys that might help you (regardless that I am sure that you are more experienced than me)
I have killed az-gur (big troll guy) before once and it was normal kill then next time after he cheated death he was lvl 40 I was lucky because I had him fighting me in an area where there was no single orc so I fought him alone then he was decapitated then afterward I met him and he cheated death so I think it doesn't matter what how you kill the orc he can always come back
Also I have noticed that some orcs are really persistent and come back a lot more than others
It's just my opinion though I may be wrong

I had a theory it was about when you exploit their mortal weaknesses but no, even "average" guys can come back. Besides he wont ENDLESSLY come back so cheers.
