PairingHigh Elves vs Dark Elves
Starts inThe Blighted Isle

A guard of Naggarond, sworn to the Witch King and fuelled by Hatred.

Tanks stand at the front: they take the blows, guard their friends and hold the enemy where the rest of the warband can reach it.

What works in WoR today

In progress

You can create a Black Guard on the character screen, start in The Blighted Isle and fight there: abilities run on the original game data, but not all of this career's abilities are in yet. Realm versus Realm comes later.
