Palantir Theories

Thenewguy2263·2/24/2022 in General

I just updated to the latest version and checked out the new "secret" Palantir, and I noticed the message you get when you click it:

You ponder the orb for a while, but do not yet know how to make use of it.

Note the "yet" in the message, implying that you will be able to use it at some point! I'm thinking it will probably be linked to alignment (Probably with mordor/high elves). Regarding what it will actually be used for, I don't know. Maybe it will be used for smaller-scale map viewing (Think Journeymap) aas well as interconnecting all palantirs in a world.

This make a bit more sense then it would on Legacy, considering the new map fog. Sounds like a good story item... (wink wink-you vs. Saruman)

I don't know how it could be useful, but since the Palantirs were interconnected, I figure you could use them as in-game "phones" as well!

Um. There were only seven of them that existed in Middle-earth. Unless the one that was added is one of the two that are at the bottom of Forochel Bay.

Wait how do you get the palantir in-game?

What do you think?
