Is the multiplayer worth it?
I've read that high level players use moded orcs with perfect traits. Are those impossible to beat?

Not impossible, plus some orcs that are over the max lvl are actually weaker. But honestly? No, the online siege situation is ass.

Imagine you buy a box with random stuff inside, you don't know but you have to buy it, there is no alternative.
You learn gambling.
You use gambling
You jam the things you win from gambling into an orc like a flu shot, then sticfk him on a castle to defend it from a dude probably using Mranteefun cheats.

The fun part could have been the arena you make them fight, but they have horrible mechanics and sometimes the AI is really really dumb, the loading screens and the introductions are ass, it takes too long to mash through and watch a bunch of orcs fight it out.

The guy who posted above me said ass, and it is, but if someone with a soul could get in there and patch some stuff to make it player friendly not just what looks good on paper kinda stuff, you know QoL, it could be better than ass.

Also yeah there were some hacky ways to get perfect orcs, but any orc over the level cap thing is nerfed to hell and should be ez kill, which sux either way bcoz why wasnt the orc removed if hacked? yeesh.

While incredibly difficult to defeat via normal means, hacked orcs are definitely not impossible to defeat. You just need to learn certain fundamentals of late-game combat mechanics and go about things patiently and methodically.

Alternatively, you pick up the epic sword that was implemented incorrectly and in its current state will annihilate any and every potential threat in the game like it was nothing.

Note that the main issue with hacked orcs isn't their character level, that's more or less meaningless. The issue is that they have every immunity and special ability available to an uruk, and many more that *aren't*. As such, there are only a couple methods of actually dealing any damage to them, and you need to not get hit by them at all or else you're likely to die in one slap.

The standard method of dealing with invincible orcs is just unupgraded elven light/charged hammer strike to face --> knockdown --> deadly striker glaive attack chain/fury --> repeat. There are some variations and nuances, but that's the gist of it.


As for whether or not multiplayer is "worth it"... Eh. No, not really. It's basically only there for bragging rights you can't really brag about, occasionally coming across a theme fortress that's cool/funny, and getting your overlord killed.
