You’ll see a number of dwarven remains throughout the mines as you explore Moria.

You may wonder what happens with those hero’s tokens you find after honoring them.

In this survival guide, we’ll guide you through the memorial flame and why you should consider making one in The Lord of the Rings: Return to Moria.

How Do You Build the Memorial Flame in Return to Moria

You’ll need to progress in the game in order to unlock the recipe for the memorial flame in Return to Moria.

You may need to repair a furnace and forge or honor dwarven remains to satisfy the requirements to unlock its recipe.

The memorial flame’s blueprint is in your building menu.

You’ll notice that you’ll need five hero’s tokens to build it.

Where do you get these hero’s tokens in Return to Moria?

You’re going to have to head into the mines to find fallen dwarven comrades.

They’re noticeable by the dwarven helm or axe that usually sits on a skeleton or shield.

When you approach the remains, you’ll have the option to honor them.

After you interact with them by honoring them, the remains will disappear and in its place will be a hero’s token.

The token, itself, looks like a carved statue.

Pick it up and keep it on hand for when you’re ready to build the memorial flame.

Once you have five, you can build it and place it in your base.

What Does the Memorial Flame Do

Dwarven remains aren’t always the easiest things to find, so you might wonder if it’s worth going through the hassle to build a memorial flame.

It absolutely is.

When you build a memorial flame, you’re able to interact with the statue.

It gives you a stat bonus called Hero-Spirit.

When you have this status, your energy is basically boosted.

Energy is vital for mining, running, and fighting enemies.

So, having the memorial flame there for a quick top-up on energy when your base is under siege is a pretty great strategy.

You can think of it as having a Hero-Spirit status effect on tap.

So, find your tokens, build your memorial flame, and be ready for the next time the goblins come knocking at your door.
