The Battle for Mordor Begins Once Again! | June 5–14

Mordor returns with PvPvE points, boss fights, relic hunting, hourly mutators, Treasure Brutes, Black Gate Keys, and leaderboard rewards.

How points work:

• Earn points by killing Mordor mobs, bosses, and players, holding the Relic, and catching Treasure Brutes.
• Dying in Mordor resets your points to 0.
• Killing a player steals 75% of their points — the remaining 25% is lost.

Mordor zones:

• Outer Mordor — mobs worth 1–3 points.
• Ash Ring — mobs worth 4–7 points.
• Inner Mordor — mobs worth 8–10 points.

Bosses:

• Five bosses roam Mordor: Uruk Warlord, Orodruin Flame, Morgul Deathspeaker, Gorgoroth Beast, and Shelob Matron.
• Bosses spawn from level 1–10 and are worth 100–1,000 points.
• During Boss Surge, bosses have more health, give 25% more points, and spawn every 15 minutes.
• Bosses have a chance to drop a Black Gate Key and a Collectible.

Relic system:

• Claim the Relic of Mordor at the obelisk to earn 1 point per second.
• While holding the Relic, your approximate location is visible to all players.
• Dying, logging out, or leaving Mordor returns the Relic to the obelisk.

Gorgoroth treasure brute:

• A tiny glowing Gorgoroth Treasure Brute can randomly appear in Mordor — worth 1,000–2,000 points and a Black Gate Key.
• It runs from players, dies in one hit, and vanishes if not caught in time.

Hourly mutators:

• Double Hunts — Mordor mob kills count twice.
• Boss Surge — Bosses have 25% more health, give 25% more points, and spawn every 15 minutes.
• Blood Tithe — Player kills transfer 90% of points.
• Ashen Bounty — Ash Ring mobs give 50% more points and Black Gate Key rewards are increased by 10%.
• Inner Riches — Inner Mordor mobs give 25% more points and Black Gate Key rewards are increased by 5%.

Rewards:

• Every 2 Mordor mob kills earns 1 Bloodstone.
• Every 500 Mordor mob kills earns 1 Trader Key.
• Regular Mordor mobs have a rare 1-in-1,500 chance to drop a Black Gate Key.

• 1st Place — 384 Black Gems
• 2nd Place — 320 Black Gems
• 3rd Place — 256 Black Gems
• 4th Place — 192 Black Gems
