I want to call this a bug, but I don’t have another direct comparison with this spell type..
Krag’Rax Bloodskull (this campaign’s Mythic), Quatramanus (the only other choose an enemy splash damage and a random enemy), and Spiked Manriki hero weapon (similar, but not exact)
The targets are chosen the moment you press cast, so if you kill 2 (or more) targets with the 1st enemy cast, the second cast to the random enemy never comes out if it chose a dead enemy. (really obvious for the Spiked Manriki)
Meanwhile, the spell reads like you should be getting both hits for sure at the same time and not getting ripped off and losing the 2nd hit.
The only indirect comparisons I can make is that you never see the 2nd set of Guild Guardians like Ferocity lose their 2nd hit..
Maybe this could be filed and fixed under the splash damage bug
I like Krag’Rax Bloodskull so it’d be nice if it didn’t have this glaring issue that makes it way worse than it should be…

I played as usual, but I couldn’t find enough orcs for the campaign. I’m only halfway to the silver award. I don’t think there are enough orcs in the game 
fight in grosh nak… i think. thats the orc kingdom right?

Lucien, very astute.
It’s the ONLY Orc kingdom.
And I too didnt kill enough. I mistakenly figured id smash it out this weekend during the vault event…..except Grosh Nak is the kingdom of the week, so only underspire is available.
No Orcs in Pvp restrictions this week. So “How on Earth” am I meant to finish.
100% not enough Orcs…
Edited to add .. Lucien not an attack on you. Frustration is aimed at devs

no worries, i figured as much. underspire should not block explore in my opinion.

Absolutely maybe it will get passed on to the team to never get implemented in favour of another pass. The underspire/explore pass. 1 month for £6 but the value is £35 just like in the “offers” section

Appalling design when 10 weeks of daily play and weekly 2k seals is unable to organically unlock a campaign goal.
Will be using this attack team on both Daemon regions in PvP this week to hopefully help some people out.

If you haven’t completed trials for Grosh-nak that might be a way to get a few orc kills. If you have completed them there’s the epic trials but they’re high level and you can’t pick your team… not a good option.
Otherwise Broken Lands PvP is the best option I can think of. Looking for teams with Eye of Arges or Immortal Ang’Rak.

Oh, wow. I completely forgot about this Explore/Underspire bug.
Thanks everyone for pointing that out. I also need Orcs. Looks like a disgusting PVP slog is the only thing on the menu.

If you’re hunting orcs, you might get lucky in arena (it’s random troops from any kingdom, but not great odds, obviously), and you can check PvP regions (on Playstation, Broken Lands is currently Orc only, but I don’t know the other platforms) or try Central Spire and hope for the best (start battles and quit if there’s no orcs, repeatedly, for fastest results). Also, Immortal Ank’Rak is an orc and can be used in Broken Lands at any time, so you could try battling there and hoping for teams with him on, in the same way (Not great, but it’s possible)
The only orcs not from Grosh-Nak are Bugbear (Zaejin), First Mate Axelubber (Blackhawk), Maze Cyclops (The Labyrinth / Wild Plains), and Pyrophemus (Broken Spire). So, you can try explore in those locations and pick up a handful of orcs. Preferably, use low level explore and a fast team for that method, as it’ll take a while.
But yeah, otherwise, there’s really no way to specifically target orcs. You might stumble across some in other modes, but the only (infinitely) repeatable modes are explore and PvP, so if you can’t explore in Grosh-Nak, and you don’t have an Orc/Grosh-Nak region in your PvP, it’s gonna be rough trying to finish the challenge. I wish you luck.
And yeah, I still have no idea why they insist on removing explore from a region, and putting underspire there, when we have a dedicated spot for underspire in the game menu. It serves no real purpose and actively blocks players from doing something they might want to do, in the game. Just madness.
EDIT: If they absolutely have to include it in the region’s menu, why not make it half size and push explore to the side, at half size as well. There’s plenty of room to have both.

Broken lands is Daemon this week. Ive done about 30 pvp fights. And found about 10 or 20 orcs. It’s SLOW.
I still need to get 211 orcs to get the gold orb…
I dont think i have the patience.
Hopefully by the middle of the week there may be more than one orc every few battles
EDIT: @Jeto any reason why this question ALWAYS goes unanswered?
Why do we have to lose the kingdoms explore in place of underspire. Why not alongside.
There’s no lore, and as mentioned above underspire has its own button anyways.

Just thought, if anyone hasn’t finished the trials, you could potentially start the fight, kill one or more orcs, then quit before killing them all, and redo the battle. It’d be easier on the earlier trials than doing the later battles, and would at least make it repeatable.
Even if you’ve done the normal trials, you could do this with the first elite level trial. Just beat one or two orcs and quit, then repeat.
Still not a perfect solution, but better than nothing.
