The Mordor orc, o, is a form of orc found in NetHack. They are slightly stronger than hill orcs, but much slower.

Generation

Mordor orcs have a 2/3 chance of being generated with each of the following: a scimitar, an orcish shield, a knife, and an orcish chain mail. They also have the standard 50% chance of starting with an orcish helm.[1])

Strategy

The larger pool of equipment Mordor orcs can be generated with mean that, on average, Mordor orc hordes generally makes for a more difficult fight than against a group of hill orcs. However, the same strategies still apply and will likely prove just as effective, though the player will want to be slightly more cautious and perhaps better armored.
