He also has more torture effects than Hookaui, who only has 2. His move Ancestral Flail Swing is an example of this. Although Hookuai's self buff moves give him PEP, he only has one, unlike Ugluk who has extra turn moves, self shielding moves, and Battering Lizard which is great.Īlso Unlike Hookaui, Ugluk has some denying capabilities. Has Higher Damaging moves than Hookaui, and more self buffing moves. His trait even comes with AoE Quicksand, and Control Immunity (Like Hookaui, although he has anticipation).

He is playable in the Gameboy Advance version of the video game Lord of the Rings: The Third Age if the player is playing the evil campaign.For Starters, Ugluk Better Stats then Hookaui, and has Tough to counter torture effects, his weakness. Though Uglúk's death is not shown onscreen, his severed head is later found mounted on a pike, proving that he was indeed killed.

Uglúk's fate in the books is ambiguous, but in the movies, when the Riders of Rohan led by Éomer attack him and his band, they kill all of the Uruk-hai (Éomer later confirms they left none alive). The movie version takes it further by then cannibalizing the Orc he just beheaded along with his fellow Uruk-hai (also uttering the now-famous line 'Looks like meat's back on the menu, boys!'). He is an ill-tempered and vicious Uruk-hai leader who looks down on the Orcs accompanying him and his fellow Uruk-hai, and in fact, outright kills Orcs who become insubordinate.

He is the leader of Saruman's Uruk-hai scouts in The Lord of the Rings books (and the movies after Lurtz is killed by Aragorn). Uglúk is a minor antagonist in The Lord of the Rings by JRR Tolkien and Peter Jackson's film trilogy of the same name, being a minor antagonist in both The Fellowship of the Ring and The Two Towers. I don't take orders from orc maggots! Saruman will have his prize! We will deliver them.
