Hints: Shelob's Lair: Easy experience:
When you get to the part where Sam says 'I can't
get by this', fight all the Orcs. Once you have finished,
go to the top of the ridge where you push off the rocks. Push
the rock and the Orcs will be there, giving you more experience.
Hints: Entering Perfect mode:
Use the following trick to enter Perfect mode very
quickly without taking any damage. When surrounded by a group
of enemies, rapidly hit 'Parry'
to block all incoming attacks.
As you block, your special meter rises very quickly, bringing
you to Perfect mode. You can now quickly take out all nearby enemies
while racking up the Perfects. This is very useful in Pelennor
Fields.
An easy way to get to Perfect mode is to use Orc Bane, Bane Of
Saruman, or Warrior Bane.
To get perfect mode, use Orc Hewer many times. You will soon enter
Perfect mode.
Rapidly hit
L
+
R
with Aragorn, Gimli, Legolas,
or Faramir [as a special ability]. After a red glow appears, attack
an Orc or two. You should get Perfect mode very quickly.
Hints: Cirith Ungol: Easy kills:
As Sam, wait for someone to knock over another Orc
then run up and quickly kill him. Eliminate them one by one and
eventually get up to the Boss. An easy way to kill him is to keep
throwing pikes at him. Make sure time does not run out while fighting
the Orcs.
When you are fighting the hordes of Uruk-Hai at the bottom of
the staircase leading to the Boss, look for the vats of lava.
Use your invisibility move to sneak up on it. When you think the
Uruks are close, hit
Action
to spill the vats, killing
all the Uruks. If there are any that remain standing, use the
flame-tipped pikes.
This level does not have any checkpoints, but has many Orcs. Take
Sam through the level and destroy eighty Orcs. After killing them,
you will have to fight a fat Orc. Use fierce attacks to kill him,
then hit the catapult to kill off the Orcs. Remember to look for
buckets of fire to knock down to kill the Orcs. Also, when you
reach bridges that you must pull down, put them down when Orcs
are underneath to kill them.
When you get to a point where you have to climb a ladder, do so,
then, defeat a few Orcs. You will see two barrels with blue rings
around them. Press
Action
and the barrels will roll down
and kill Orcs. Note: If you want the kills to be Excellent, you
must kill a few Orcs before rolling the barrels.
As you fight your way through the level you will reach a circular
room with lots of Orcs. Use Sam's special ability to become invisible.
Immediately take a right and you will see some stairs. Fight your
way to the top where you will see a rope leading to a chandler
hidden in the shadows. Press
Action
to cut the rope, killing
all the Orcs below. This will help get a large amount of the 80
required kills.
Hints: Walls Of Minas Tirith: Siege towers:
Destroy the first siege tower with the catapult near
the middle of the wall. It requires two hits to topple. For the
second tower that rolls over to the far right, you can just use
your projectiles to take it out. Keep firing at it in order to
bring it down.
When you have destroyed the third siege tower, go to the fourth
one and kill all the Orcs that are in there until you cannot see
any more. Then, shoot down the siege tower with your arrows. Once
that is done, go to the men that are guarding the stairs. Walk
down there to complete the level.
Hints: Walls Of Minas Tirith: Defeating
Hints: Defeating the Mountain King:
When fighting the Mountain King, play as Gimli. Parry
until he stops attacking you, then speed attack him three times.
Throwing axes at him has no effect.
Hints: Walls Of Minas Tirith: Extra experience:
Complete Minis Tirith top of the wall, but instead
of going straight down the stairs to the courtyard, go up the
tower to the left of the stairs. At the top are approximately
seven pickups that will give you an extra 1000 experience points.
At the part where the siege towers are approaching, use the catapult
to destroy the first and third ones. On the third tower. the Nazgul
will come up and swoop. When he does this, use your ranged attacks
to kill it. This will block the way to the other tower. Press
R
to swing down the rope, go across the ledge, knock over
the other ladder, climb up the rope, and go to the other tower.
Once you have knocked the tower over, go to the front and go up
the stairs to the top of the watchtower. There will be seven Elven-stones
there, giving you 1,000 experience points each. Then, go back
down the stairs and down to the courtyard to end the level.
Hints: Sam: Special move:
Use the following trick if you are having trouble killing
the fat Orcs in levels such as Escape From Osilgiath and Cirith
Ungol. While you are Sam, you can use a special cloaking move
that allows you to become invisible for a short amount of time.
You can activate this cloak by hiting
L
+
R
while
standing still. While you have the cloak on, you can use an instant
killing move that is very effective against any Orc, including
the fat ones. However, you must use this while you are close to
the Orc that you are trying to kill. Sam is very slow while he
has the cloak on, and it may run out of energy before you get
to your target. With the cloak on, get behind the enemy that you
are attempting to kill, then hit
R. The Orc will die
instantly, but you will become visible afterwards -- use it wisely.
Note: This move does not work on the boss Orc at the end of the
Cirith Ungol level, when you are trying to get Frodo out of the
tower.
Hints: Link moves:
Learn how to 'Link Move' [any special move
that requires you to parry first then followed by the combo move].
It will immediately place you in Perfect mode.
Hints: Killing enemies:
A great way to kill a vast amount of enemies is to
use the speed attack as much as possible while moving frequently.
For example, when surrounded by Orcs, rapidly hit
A
while
moving around to knock enemies to the ground, kill them, and enter
into Perfect mode faster. This is a great strategy to prevent
back attacks and when you are greatly outnumbered.
Hints: Southern Gate: Easy experience:
Complete all the tasks until you have the gate open.
Do not go through the gate. Just fight all the creatures you can
as they keep respawning. Try to use combos to get into Perfect
mode then most of the enemies are worth 300 experience points.
When you cannot fight anymore, leave. Some small creatures give
out red health potions, allowing you to fight for a long period
of time.
As soon as you step on the drawbridge, you are ambushed by Orcs
and a Troll. Quickly run from the Troll and shoot the catapults.
Once this is done, do not go up on top of the gate. Kill all the
surrounding Orcs. Travel down as far as you can from the catapults
[not towards the gate]. Once you have gone as far as you can,
turn and run left. When you cannot go left anymore, there should
be an area where Orcs are appearing. Keep killing them with arrows
before they reach you, and they will eventually stop. Then travel
to the right until you see another area where they are appear
from. Destroy them all here until they stop. Then, travel to the
right some more and do the same thing. In all, there should be
four different Orc spawning locations. When they stop coming from
all of these, they will no longer appear.
If you have already completed the game, you can go to the Southern
Gate level with a character that has a low level [for example,
Merry]. When you are fighting the Orcs, stay there and keep fighting
them as much as needed. When your health gets low, use the 'Health'
command and restore it.
At the end of the level after you have opened the gate, do not
use the pots to kill the extra Orcs. Instead, go down and fight
them by hand. By doing this you will gain about 2,000 more experience
points.
Let the Troll jump off. Throw a spear at it. Hopefully you will
have every Bane. If you do, keep using them and you will rank
up the Perfects. It takes about ten minutes for the Orcs to die
down. Once all of them are dead, fire all catapults. Then, go
up to where the Troll is located. Use a Bane, then quickly kill
the Troll while still in Perfect mode. Use the same approach with
the Mumakil. Pull open the gate. Then, use another Bane, and pour
the vats of oil over onto the Orcs. Run through the gate. You
should gain about three levels if you are at a high level.
Hints: Road To Isengard:
As Gandalf, you will encounter many Uruk-Hai. You will
easily kill them with your attacks. When you reach the part where
Ents are killing Orcs, you will join the battle and must wait
until 75 Uruk-Hai are dead. After this, your journey will continue.
When you reach to group bunch of towers, destroy all of them by
shooting your ranged weapon at the explosives under the towers.
Once they are destroyed, you will keep going on until the end.
At the end you must help destroy the wall that is blocking the
water from coming out and wiping out all of Isengard. Kill any
Orc that approaches by the Ent and let him break the wall. Once
he does this, you will have finished the level.
Hints: Black Gate:
There are two checkpoints in this level, but it is
still difficult. First, you will have to defeat a big, black caped
enemy. He is very easy to defeat if you use fierce attacks. Then,
you must defeat six fat Orcs with green health bars above their
heads. As they approach, you will have to fight many Orcs and
protect your friends. Their health bar will be at the top of the
screen. When it gets low, go to them and help them kill the Orcs.
When you stand next to your friend, he will glow and get health.
Make sure you stay next to him to get his health up. After three
big Orcs are destroyed, the Orcs will attack ou from three different
directions. Keep helping your friends and killing Orcs. Once you
have killed all six fat Orcs, you will reach a checkpoint. Three
Nazgul will appear. Kill them by shooting your ranged weapon [arrows
or axes]. Once all three of them are killed, the level will end.
Hints: Gandalf: Special move:
If you are having trouble completing some of the levels
featuring Gandalf, try using his shield special move. While are
playing as Gandalf, hit
L
+
R
to trigger the shield
into action. This blocks you from a wide range of attacks, including
arrows. You can also move wile using it, however just like Sam's
special move it will slow Gandalf down. You can upgrade this shield
[as well as Sam's cloak] to last longer and be stronger. Note:
This may not block all physical attacks or ranged attacks [for
example, an Ent stepping on Gandalf, a troll falling on Gandalf,
or a catapulted rock hitting Gandalf].
Hints: Shelob's Lair: Defeating Orcs:
You can defeat a lot of the Orcs before you enter the
next area. For example, after you burn the spider web and go through
it, you will see an Orc meeting at the end of the tunnel. Go back
to the torches and pick one up. Even though you cannot see far
ahead, throw it in that direction. Amazingly, you will strike
every time. You can clear up the room before you even enter it.
Just throw the torch and you will hear the 'hit' sound.
This will also work with the archers in the left tunnel ahead.
Fire will be useful if you use it to clear your way ahead, even
if you cannot see your enemy. It seems that Sam has great aim.
Hints: Southern Gate: Endless enemies:
Contrary to popular belief there is not an endless
supply of enemies in this level. Although it may seem like the
Orcs will not stop appearing, there are actually about 300 to
400 enemies.
Hints: Escape from Osgiliath:
This level is played by Sam. You will meet many Orcs
that are your height. Frodo will help you in some battles. When
you reach a roof, you will have to find shelter so the Nazgul
does not catch Frodo and the Ring. This will happen twice in the
level. When it happens and you find shelter, stay there until
the red meter has gone all the way down. When you get near the
end, you will have to fight an Orc with a green health bar above
him. Parry his attacks, then strike with fierce attacks. Once
his shield is broken, the battle will go much faster. Open the
gate to your escape.
When fighting the Orc with the health bar at the end of the level,
hit
L
+
R
to make Sam invisible. Then, sneak up
directly behind the Orc and hit
R
to stab him in the
back. This will kill him instantly.
King Of The Dead:
When you are fighting the King of the Dead, make sure
you always parry with
B. He will attack with his sword
three times, then you can attack by hiting
A. Be careful,
as he will strike back after a couple of hits. Once a dead body
appears from of him, he will then strike five times when he is
attacking. After you defeat him, you will have to make a run for
it. The place collapses and you will have to fight the dead to
escape. There will be two fights that you will have to finish
quickly, or the place will fall on you. The last battle [the third
one] has your friends with you. It gives you more time, but if
you do not hurry, you will die. After you finish the final battle,
you will escape the Paths Of The Dead .
When fighting the King Of The Dead, always approach him when you
see the green/yellow/red bar above him [depending on how much
damage you inflict on him] and parry first. In the beginning he
will attack three times [usually with a green bar above him],
four times [usually with a yellow bar above him], and five times
[usually when a red bar is above him]. Timing is also a factor.
As a rule, you want him to have a yellow or red damage bar above
him by the time he summons 'Winds Of The Mountain'.
After awhile, the king will set up to use his 'Wind Of The
Mountain' attack. You will start behind a rock on the very
right side of the level. If you go immediately, you can make it
to the other rock to the left without taking damage. When the
king pauses to recharge, step out from behind the rock. Then,
pour on the ranged attack. If you hurry, you can get five shots
off each time. If done correctly, you can take out a quarter of
his life each time he tries to set up the wind attack. If you
have any skill, he will not be able to use his wind more than
twice.
When fighting the King Of The Dead and he goes into his wind attacks
during that time that your are positioned behind a rock, between
attacks, jump out, then fire your range attack repeatedly. Make
sure you get behind the rock again before the wind starts. This
is most effective when playing as Legolas, as he can fire faster
than Gimli or Aragorn. This will prevent you from fighting the
dead champions [the dead soldiers with the green bar above their
head] later, which saves time and life.
When the King Of The Dead sends out his little minions, run all
the way back to where the cliff is located. Once his men appear,
they will not see you. Take out your bow and shoot one. He will
start to run towards you. Fight him, then repeat. Note: A similar
strategy also works at Shelob's Lair.
When playing in co-op mode, have the strongest character fight
him while the other person shoots their ranged weapon from a distance.
This will quickly wear down his health.
Orc:
At the end of the level there is a giant Orc that stands
between you and the exit. Instead of fighting it, hold
L
+
R
to use Sam's special ability and become invisible.
Then, run up and turn the crank that opens the gate. If you need
health, do the same thing and grab the health. This is much faster
than fighting the Orc. As long as you get out of the door you
will still complete the level, no matter how many enemies remain.

the level, no matter how many enemies remain.
Orc in sewer:
When you can barely see the big Orc in the sewer, hold
L
then hold
A
until you can see the sword behind
Sam's head. Then, release
A
and fire. Do this about four
or five times until he is dead.
Hints: Restoring health at checkpoint:
When you return to a checkpoint and your life is low,
find an enemy and let him kill you. When asked you if you want
to try again, answer 'Yes'. You will start off where
you were with full health.
Hints: Shelob's Lair: Defeating Shelob:
When fighting Shelob, be aware that she can deal a
lot of damage to you. To defeat her, hit 'Parry'
to deflect
her attacks. Then at the correct moment, hit her with your speed
attacks. When you cut off one of her legs, she goes on a big rampage.
Jump back to back off her rampage. Note: This also works in co-operative
mode.
To easily defeat Shelob, make sure that you have the move 'Poison
Blade' before entering this level. Charge the move up when
Shelob backs away, then strike when she approaches. This will
make the battle go much faster.
Use Legolas and run directly up to Shelob. Start using your speed
attack. She will turn around, but keep slashing. Her health will
drop dramatically.
When the battle starts, Shelob is preoccupied with Frodo, so you
can get a free hit on her. Use this to your advantage and attack
with the Orc Hewer combo, This is recommended, as using a 4-hit
combo will end up with you damaged. She will start hitting you
three times in a row. Parry those hits, then respond with a simple
Speed combo. Do not bother with other combos [even Orc Hewer],
because trading blows with Shelob is tricky; she will strike quickly
then pause, but the lull is only long enough to get a very quick
combo in. Orc Hewer is slower to develop. Keep trading hits [remember
to parry as well] then, after enough damage, you will succeed
in putting out one of Shelob's eyes. Shelob will crawl up the
wall and summon some spiders. They will drop from the sky. When
you see one of them flying down, go to where it will land and
start using Final Judgement to kill it. Then, run to one of the
walls. If one of the spiders does not follow you, use a ranged
attack to get its attention. Then, on the spider, use a Fierce
attack, then the Death move to kill it. Repeat this with all of
the spiders. Do this quickly, as if you take too long Shelob will
jump from the wall and you will need to deal with her and the
other spiders as well. When Shelob jumps down, she will be flat
for a few seconds; use another Speed combo. Then, she will trade
blows with you again. If you do not damage her enough, she will
call more spiders. Damage her quickly. If you hurt her enough,
you will cut off half of her leg. She will then run around her
lair and try to run you over. You cannot parry this; run away.
She will then call more spiders. Repeat the same process. She
will then trade blows with you; repeat again. Repeat this entire
process until she is dead.
