Walkthrough & Notes

Although the quest text says goblins, orcs, and uruks, Half-orcs may work just as well. Areas where you can find the targets (in some harder areas you may try skirmishes): Eregion: The fastest way is to enter the instance Library of Tham Mirdain. In Eregions landscape it's easier to find Half-orcs than other species of orc-kind. Half-orcs can be found north of Mirobel, at Târ Stazg, and at Barad Morlas, among other places. Trollshaws: Goblins just north-east of the Last Bridge [33.0S, 21.5W] Also in "Ford of Bruinen" skirmish. Misty Mountains: The fastest way is to enter the instance Seat of the Great Goblin. In the landscape the easiest way is to travel to Hrimbarg, where Goblins are on patrol just outside the outpost. Bree-land: The fastest way is to port to Trestlebridge and to ride some seconds to the nearby ruins of Norwarden in the Wildwood. There are also groups of Orcs on the road from Bree to Trestlebridge and camps at Northern Bree-fields. Lone-lands: The fastest way is to port to Candaith during the quest line Volume III, Book 1. There are also orcs south of Ost Guruth. North Downs: The fastest way is to port or travel to Esteldín and ride west to Gatson's Farm. Evendim: A small Goblin camp near Tûm Fuin [4.4S, 65.2W] Also, goblins at Tham Andalath (just SE of Ost Forod). [9.5S, 63.1W] Forochel: Goblins in a small patch within Taur Orthon, around [2.3N, 60.1W] (opposite side of lake from Kauppa-kohta). Angmar: The fastest way is to open the instance Urugarth or Carn Dûm. In the landscape there are orcs at Morfil, east of Aughaire. [0.4N, 36.7W] The Shire: Goblins in the south-eastern Bindbole Wood [29.8S, 68.9W] Also in the "Trouble in Tuckborough" skirmish. Ered Luin: Goblins in the opencast outside Mirkstone Tunnels NW of Thorin's Hall. Also in SW of Vale of Thrain and in "The Siege of Gondamon" skirmish.

Quest Text

Bestowal dialogue 'I have told you of my hatred for the Orcs, <name>, and you know that no bounds can hold it! My passion for slaying Orcs cannot be contained by the borders of this forest, nor by those of any region in this Middle-earth! 'I have envisioned the grandest statement possible of my hatred for the Orcs. Let them rue the many times they have crossed the Greyhammer family and gnash their teeth in anguish that they ever did so! 'You will travel to every region in which an Orc, goblin, or uruk has caused harm to a Greyhammer and slay one of their kind, and you will shout "For the Greyhammers!" as you do so. Then perhaps the Orcs will know and fear my family, as they should! Do this first in Mirkwood, Lothlórien, and Moria, and work your way westward in sequence. Then speak to my father Tandri in Thorin's Hall, in Ered Luin, and tell him of this glorious deed!'

Most of their kind is holed up in the mountains, or down deep in forgotten caves! 'A small party of goblins crossed the Last Bridge out of the Lone-lands a few days ago, and caused some trouble for one of me waggons! You might still find 'em, if you go now! 'These goblins were in the South Trollshaws, just south-west of the cave-claw infested ruins of Ost Dúgonn. Defeat one for me, if your travels take you there!'

Leithólf: 'You are seeking Orcs or goblins here in Forochel to slay? I thoroughly approve of this aim, <name>! 'There are few in this frigid land, however. Do not despair! I have seen a party of shivering goblins just to the west of this settlement, this Kauppa-kohta outpost! 'Look for shivering goblins on the far shore of the lake just to the west of here. Slay one for me, even though I am not a Greyhammer; but I like what I have heard of them!' 'For the Greyhammers!' you cry as you defeat your foe Objective 5 Defeat an Orc, goblin, or uruk in the Shire Defeat an Orc, goblin, or uruk in Ered Luin You are looking for Orcs, goblins, and uruks in the Shire and Ered Luin.

Now that you have completed Lúth Greyhammer's glorious deed of sending a statement to the Orcs in every region where a Greyhammer was wronged, it is time to tell his father Tandri of your exploits. Tandri Greyhammer: 'What in the names of all the Fathers has my son had you do? Travelling to all the regions in which a Greyhammer has been wronged and slaying a single Orc in each? I cannot believe you humoured him thus, <name>! Does a <class> such as you have nothing more pressing to do than this? 'If my son Lúth and his brothers spent less time dreaming up ways to tell folk of their grievances with the Orcs and more time mining and working, perhaps we would have found some precious gemstones by now! 'Take this for your effort, <name>. I will speak to Lúth myself. It is high time he began doing something productive with the time he currently spends complaining to strangers about his lot in life!'
