How to kill Shaka

[Baldwick]

I have a lvl 70 cursed mystic trickster who insta-kills me while cursing me, I'm lvl 21 and still in Nurnen. How the ♥♥♥♥ do I get him, Thorthog killed him for me once but he respawned, not as in come back and cheated death, but just came back immeditedly at full health. I hate him so much

UPDATE: I killed his warboss so he wasn't able to defend the fist fort. Currently in the snow area and as soon as I step out he TRACKS ME. Says: "You can run all across Mordor but I will still follow." I die to him, turn passes, immediately kills the overlord and now he's level 72 or something ridiculous. So yeah, 2nd fort is going to be interesting.

I want this challenge in my game, I break the orc captains too quickly, its why I went ahead and took Pandoras, Atrata (or something like that), and other level 80 forts, its no fun when they just fall over like dominoes with Tourette's syndrome.

Oh and in your case, Shaka is now a non-entity as far as the open world is concerned, so leave Seregost (snow area) and burn the rest of Mordor to the ground without having to look over your shoulder all the time, after which point you should be level 40 or above and be in a position where taking seregost isn't so suicidal. Or take the challenge of beating/shaming him now.

I found a Necro, recruited him and then I gave him flaming weapon since he already had cursed. Well, that erased his Necro trait LOL.

It did ? lol never tried that.

So, if you give him back his cursed weapons, will he regain the necro ?

@Poker, I doubt it.
I had a Diceased with Poison bombs, once I gave him fire weap it removed the bombs and regiving the poisonous one didnt solve it.

@Hurky, lol why did you give fire to a necro xd, poison I could understand but the weaknesse of his spawns^^. Wanted to see the fire spread among tons of undeads?

@Fizzy: I wonder, if he wait, maybe the Overlord will change while he is conquering the rest of Mordor. Turn over happens a lot in Cirith Ungol, didnt notice it in Seregost but could be annoying if Shaka is replaced by a weakling xd.

It can happen, however overlords are a bit weird as you need to be in the region and have an orc in position (high level and strong enough to kill them) to take their place. If you leave the region almost everything stops aside from ongoing quest/captain challenges which end after some time passes. So if you left Shaka in the overlord position, no one in the region can kill you and take the overlords place, overlord can't be betrayed/assassinated and as long as Shaka is overlord he can't take on any captain challenges (Graug hunts for example) meaning he will be just as you left him, which is nice unless you want to really challenge yourself and defeat him now rather than waiting till your stronger.

Also, Cirith Ungol doesn't have any warchief/lord slots before act 3, as far as I know, so Shaka would simply murder everything in the region as no other captain could stand against him and because there is no fort slots to take up (and murder their previous owner) he will continue growing stronger and stronger, at least in this case he's stuck in the Seregost fortress and can't kill all the beast and captains in the region through challenges like he could in Ungol.

Even without the killing me part it can change. I exploit it in my games, I help some guys in Cirith Ungol before getting Ring and while I am doing Nurn conquest one of them take the Dark overlord place.
Dont know if it can do the same in Seregost because its always my second region to invade.

I just hope Shaka wont get a blood bro... and at least he wont track OP anymore xd.
