Baranor the Conqueror (Gold Rank - 374,378) - Middle-earth: Shadow of War (The Desolation of Mordor)

Relatively quick and easy method to complete The Desolation of Mordor DLC in Middle-earth: Shadow of War with a Gold Rating and unlock Baranor the Conqueror achievement/trophy.

You need to score 225,000 or more and this run was well above it at 374,378 pts in under 35 min on Nemesis difficulty.

Recommended skills

3x Logistics - 30% total discount on hiring Mercenaries.
2x Honor Guard - additional Bodyguard slot.
Sabotage Inner Gate (for the conquest) - explosives at the front gate.

Outposts

1. East of the initial start point (1:10). Unlock 2x Logitstics upgrades after it and then hire a cheap Mercenary to guard it.

Remember to refill ammo from bodies between each outpost.

2. West of the initial start point (5:45). Once finished, unlock the third Logistics upgrade and assign a cheap Mercenary to guard it. Unlock an Honor Guard skill and hire 2x Legendary Mercenary to assign as your Bodyguards.

3. Southwest - below Torvin's hideout (13:00). Remember to call your Legendary Bodyguards to help you out with this one. Once captured, assign a cheap Mercenary to guard it; unlock the second Honor Guard skill and assign a third Legendary Mercenary as your Bodyguard.

4-5. The south and southeast outposts (16:55 / 22:10). Call all three of your Legendary Bodyguards to help you. Once captured, assign either an Epic or Legendary Mercenary to guard them.

The Conquest of Shindram (26:30)

You can start it directly after capturing the outposts - especially if you have 3x Legendary Bodyguards and 2x Epic/Legendary Mercenaries from outposts. If you wish, you can get rid of some Warchiefs prior to this, in which case target the ones with the most Bodyguards.

Focus on capturing the points and mostly let your Mercenaries take out the Captains once they make it in. Look for gear from dead enemies. I got some overpowered upgrades in the end but tried not to them too much for the sake of this guide. Remember to refill ammo before you enter the Overlord's fortress for the final fight.

It should be pretty easy. You need to do it in under 90 min for a bonus and I did it in under 35 with this method, so take your time if need be
