Arena

Lurking in the dark corners of this obscure adaptation lies a Trial: wave-based survival. Consisting of five different Arenas, the default Difficulty matches the original save file and each are unlocked sequentially as the story progresses. Lord Rigor applauds this setting and found the Arenas to relatively Hard on King Difficulty; despite the story needing to be completed twice in order to make this attempt.

Each Arena includes eight waves of increasing Hardship culminating to ultimate hack-and-slash carnage. Most bosses that were previously defeated on King Difficulty in the main story return with a vengeance on the final wave of each Arena. For example, the third Arena titled Amon Hen, is unlocked after the eighth Level from the story has been completed and demands another duel with the infamous Lurtz. This rematch is different than the archery-based battle from the story, and is simply a one-on-one fight to the death.

Notably, each Arena contains five Challenges of varying Difficulty. Inspired by the Seasoned Warrior Challenge from Amon Hen, Lord Rigor did not use any special abilities in the Arenas. In turn, other Challenges encouraging the a certain amount of times were eschewed and 100% completion was subsequently not pursued. Only through diligent blocking and parrying of Andúril will seasoned warriors prevail under these self-defined circumstances.

Naturally, Amon Hen was the toughest Arena because of the relentless onslaught of Uruk-Kai. These warlords were ultimately thwarted and Boromir was avenged, again. Catalogued below, may it be known that Lord Rigor has completed each Arena in Lord of the Rings: Aragorn's Quest on King Difficulty without ability utilization:
