How to unlock the Burning Shadow achievement in Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor - Definitive Guide

The Shadow Brand Skill is a new skill unique to Celembrior for the Bright Lord dlc. The skill is nearly identical to Shadow Strike, except it requires three elf-shot to use instead of two and any uruk hit with it gets branded. Like Shadow Strike you can chain Shadow Brand.

To use it simply hit cn_LT to bring up your bow, aim at an uruk or your choosing, and then tap cn_B to brand it. Simply repeat 19 more times. You'll get this quite easily over the course of the dlc campaign.

This trophy will come naturally as you proceed through the story. You would have to go out of your way to avoid getting this trophy. A Shadow Brand is performed via + , and requires 3 Elf-Shot to perform. You can restore Elf-Shot by branding further Uruks.

This trophy may be achieved in either DLC story mode or Test of the Ring.

One of Celebrimbor’s new abilities is to Shadow Brand enemy Uruk from afar using the bow. In order to pull this off, you’ll need to hold  and then tap  when aiming at an Uruk to initiate the attack. This ability will consume three elf-shot on activation, but it ultimately allows Celebrimbor to brand enemies from a distance. 

One of the first objectives in this DLC tasks players with Shadow Branding at least 12 Uruk. Take note that these will definitely count towards the achievement, thus lessening the amount needed to finally reach the full twenty. In the event of running low on elf-shot throughout the DLC, Celebrimbor can resupply from various elf-shot loot sources around the world or hold  on a targeted enemy Uruk to drain their mind for a short time and replenish half of the elf-shot gauge.

Shadow Branding is a new ability in this DLC. To brand with a shadow you need to draw your bow, aim at the orc and press the branding key, the range of action is VERY long.

A little advice on how to interrogate the Uruks to reveal the location of all the captains. To begin with, as mentioned above, you should not receive information, but rather make threats. The captain's location will be revealed in any case, but the number of points for his head will increase noticeably, which will eliminate the incredibly offensive situation when they met the deadline but did not score 13,000 points.

So, when you run around like crazy and interrogate every Uruk you come across, don’t look for loners. It’s better to do this: Attack a squad of 4-5 Uruks, we immobilize all but one (a bow shot in the leg, we interrogate the rest. When you interrogate, the immobilization will disappear from the rest of the Uruks, we repeat the procedure. Thus, having attacked several squads, you will find out the location of all 20 uruks in about 4 minutes.
