The Iron Wall - Ground Dominate?
Okay, so doing a Past Mission where this Uruk Captain I need to bring down has a bonus objective to 'Ground Dominate' him.

So ... instructions are -kinda- vague. What in Bruz blue balls is a Ground Dominate?

I've knocked him on all fours and used Consume with wrath charge.
I've knocked him on all fours and just did a normal Dominate.
I've knocked him all fours, grabbed him, and tried to dominate.

Not quite sure what the game is asking me to do here.

Ideas?

To ground dominate weaken the captain till he able to be dominated
use a knockdown ability like the ice combo
shift e to instant dominate
profit

Ground Dominate is an upgrade to Ground Finisher in the topmost line of skills. If you can't ground dominate, then it's because you don't have that skill yet and need to grind a bit for the point to put in that skill.

Pretty sure it's referencing the fact you need to do a Ground Drain / Dominate, which is a higher level subskill of the Faster Ground Finisher skill. It's like the Ground Drain unlock from The Bright Lord DLC from Shadow of War.

I'll also add that it's a great skill augment since you can get a quick heal in combat/create an ally without needing any might. Just get a perfect counter, guy gets knocked down, then you heal. I notice it gets interrupted by attacking enemies way less than ground executions too.

I prefer the use of the pummel upgrade over ground drain myself, mostly because I'm running greens on all my weapons with the War set (or I would be if my sword hadn't just gotten destroyed by an olog... -sigh-) so it's just 'build might, palm hammer the ground, get all your health back in 3 kills.' Or even better, one of those kills blows up on me (Marauder chestplate) and I get lit on fire for even more healing and kills. But the pummeling helps with might building quite a lot, you can easily get a full bar out of a single pummel, then pop back up and do whatever you want.

That was it. I didn't see that and feel like an idiot now. Thank you for that!

Thanks to everyone else who replied!

No probs. In the future, keep an eye on your upgrades. =P There's a lot of skills that you need for those kinds of objectives, like Bird of Prey, which is your only means of Aerial Ranged kills.
