The Superiority of the White Hand

The White Hand Orcs stormed into the Redhorn Lodes and ravaged the Moria Orcs enough to hold a larger territory in very little time. The long-standing Moria Orcs were content and unchallenged for some time, but this cannot fully explain why the White Hand had so much success against them.

Description
Stage 1
Stage 2

'It's clear that the invading White Hand is stronger than the Orcs of Moria. I am not convinced that tactics alone are why they are so easily winning the struggle for the Redhorn Lodes. My sneaking suspicion is they have been taught better smithing techniques and may be winning an arms race with the Moria Orcs.

'We found out they are both collecting iron. But maybe the White Hand is able to refine the iron better, or possibly knows how to produce steel?

'Defeat White Hand Orcs to collect a few pieces of their armour. I would like to inspect their pieces for quality and make and see if my suspicions are correct.'

White Hand Orcs can be found in the northern region of the Redhorn Lodes.

Ingifast has asked you to collect a few pieces of White Hand Orc armour, to help determine why they are superior in their struggle with the Moria Orcs for sole control of the Redhorn's bountiful resources.

Objectives

Collect White Hand helms (0/7)

Knakk is located on the elevated platform just north of the White Hand Orcs' encampment, on the road towards the Grand Stair.

Knakk will assess the helmets and send them back to Ingifast, who will be pleased to see all the White Hand helms that you claimed as trophies.
