The Lord of the Rings: The Third Age - Cheats

All Health and Spirit Points


To get extra elfstone weapons or items fight through one player and

when you save after a certain checkpointlike getting in to Moria will

unlock a chapter for evil mode by going to more Play as the enemys and

you have to fight the enemies you were fighting with before most of

them and once you beat all of them you get items elfstone or

weaponsYou also can go back to areas before by traveling after youve

beaten a chapter


Berethor Good sword

To start the the game with a very good sword for Berethor the first character you start with do the evil mode of Osgiliath and save it on an early game By doing this you will get the Sword Of Isildur which has a 200 damage rating At the beginning of the game you can give at least 2000 damage points from a normal hit with this weapon

Better healing

If you use Elf Medicine try and use it with Idrial If this is done it will give full health instead of half



When using an item that heals or improves anything below full health for example Kingsfoil the amount healed or improved depends on your Spirit Power Score Chose one character Idrail recommended to have the highest Spirit Score and with her spirit powers she will become your quotWhite Magequot Note This rule only works in battle when you are outside of battle the character you are using it on is actually the one using it

Building skills

Get some of the best skills very early in the game just practice In the first level find an enemy respawn point near a save point Once there keep attacking until you run out of AP and save the game Your AP should have refilled as well as your health Keep doing this and after a few hours you will get the special move from Berethor that can hit an enemy five times in a row Note This works for all characters and not just Berethor

Defeating enemies with strong attacks

When fighting enemies with strong attacks use a move that will stun the enemy whenever they are about to attack By doing this they will not be able to attack you

Defeating Sauron

On the battle of The Dark Lord Sauron use Morgul Decay just like was done on the Witch King The Dark Lord knows Berethor is strong He will probably use Darkest Fear on him then he will not be able to battle for a while Use Elven Rage and it will do somewhere from 16000 to 19000 damage if it is a critical hit Do not use Elegost He misses often when you fight the Dark Lord Try Eaoden but his move Drain Health still only does 4000 HP Use Hadhod and kept using Cleaving Wound

Defeating the Witch King

To defeat the Witch King at the Pelennor Fields make sure that you have Hadhods Second Age Dwarven Mithril Piercing Axe and the Dwarven Mithril Helm When you face the Witch King use these attacks Berethors Stunning Strike and Ectehlion Wrath Hadhods Mountain Rage and Eaodens Enraging Blow and Rohirrim Rage The Witch King has 200562 HP and 59098 AP

Easier Evil mode

If you are having trouble completing Evil mode save the game in Eregion then exit and go into Evil mode The difficulty is greatly reduced



Use Stun Sleep and Fear attacks on whoever is up next on the attack queue top right with the character pictures Focus attacks on one character If it is an attack that hits them all then focus your attacks on the one who has the greatest damage Go for lighter characters in this order Idrial Morwen or Elegost then Berethor if the situation uses Fear cast it and take Berethor first being that he is immune to it or Eaoden and finally Hadhod or battle guest

East Emnet Gullies Evil mode

Perhaps the most difficult fight of all is the one with Aranel as the guest character His Arrow Flurry can heavily damage your group Use Power Of The Pits on your captains and hang in there Use the same strategy on second fight In the battle with you as the Dominant Warg use Stunning Bite and never let them on the battle queue

East Moria Evil mode

The Troll fights are easy if you take out the light caricatures and move up the line with Massive Swing It costs so little that you can use it every turn Then for the Goblins the key to victory is in your Shadow Cheiftans Dark Renewal ability Playing the Balrog is fun if you experiment with your lesser attacks However if you really need to do damage use Pillar of Wrath It is an instant kill on anyone except for Gandalf even if they are at full health

Easy wins

Do not use the normal attack With Hadhod and Idrial use Spirit Powers With Elegost use Ranged Craft With Berethor use Sword Craft With Morwen use Thief Craft With Eaoden use Spear Craft You will only get new skills if you use Spirit Powers Sword Craft Ranger Craft Thief Craft or Spear Craft You will not get new skills by using the normal attack When you get all skills in the crafts listed use Axe Craft with Hadhod Sword Craft with Idrial Leadership with Berethor Bow Craft with Elegost and DualAxe Craft with Morwen Eaoden may have two different kinds of skills If he does train the other If he does not change him with one of the five others

Eregion Evil mode

Eregion is perhaps the toughest area because your Orcs are delicate Hang in there until you get to the Nazgul round which should be on for a solid win

Everlasting health

Once your Elf healer gains the Valor move that presets whoever you choose with an instant revival when ever you die use it at the beginning of each battle on her first then on everyone else If you maintain this so that no enemies can truly kill you you will almost always be the victor

Evil mode weapons

A good way to get some very good weapons and armor is to start a new file and save it Go to Evil mode and finish its levels preferably the high level ones When prompted for which file to save the items to select your new file When you load the game equip the weapons and armor and it will make the game a lot easier

Gaining new moves

When fighting groups of Orcs use Elegosts Sleeping Arrows after getting Elegosts passive skill that effects all foes with them Then use the Double Attack skill with Berethor and his three hit attack Just before killing the last Orc use everyones Spirit skill to gain SP points This will allow you to gain new moves that would normally take many fights to gain

Good Starting Sword for Berethor

To replay the game starting with a very good sword for Berethor the first character you start with do the evil mode of Osgiliath on your first game and save it on your new game By doing this you will get the Sword Of Isildur which has a 200 damage rating At the beginning of the game you can give at least 2000 damage points from a normal hit with this weapon

Handhod039s Mithrailscale hauberk

obtain by doing three random battles in the Minas Tirith throne room

Handhods Mithrailscale hauberk

obtain by doing three random battles in the Minas Tirith throne room

Helms Deep Evil mode

In the first fight you have unlimited resources to throw at them as long as your ladders stay alive Your Beserkers are crucial Use Stagger Foe to knock the heroes of the battle queue Even Legolas can be subdued entirely Use the same strategy for the fight with Gimli except you have now a secret weapon to protect Even Gimli cant stand against your suicidal UrukHai and will fall to three blasts at the most However being only two rounds Aragorn escapes your grasp

Infinite Experience and Skills

There are certain parts of the game where battles spawn infinitely The first is very near the beginning of the game just after the quest to kill three Wild Men bands There is a passage that goes straight south and a battle with two orcs will spawn there If you simply stand still after that battle in a few seconds another two orcs will spawn for battle and this will continue indefinitely There are at least two other places in the game that this occurs

Maximize skills

Once you get the Shadowcraft Elfstone put it on Idrial From there get Crippling followed by Fear Maxing it out is not necessary but is fun From there go to Eregion and to that small little gullylike area that has a high build up rate for battles Just wait for the battles then kill all but one enemy Have Idrial fear it then just max out all the desired skills Keep the enemy feared every time his face gets close to the top of the roster on the upper righthand screen You can even have everyone else retreat but her then just max out her skills using Drain Inspiration and eventually Leech Inspiration from her Swordcraft set You can even maximize item crafting and Lightcraft Elfstones if desired After she is maxed out move the Shadowcraft Stone to another character Get fear on that one and continue the same strategy

Minas Tirith Evil mode

You will experience a surrounding fight from the outside Focus on using Stun Blades and Thunder Hammer to knock the heroes off the battle queue and win Another Troll fight and then you will control Easterlings and are on the good side of disturbing sleep On the Witch King use Fear and take Berethor first Then constantly cast Fear and destroy the rest of The Fellowship Even Gandalf cannot withstand Fear Use it and they are all under your thumb

Morwen Better weapons

Use her Steal Item ability on unique enemies ie Bosses such as Grima Wormtounge This will give you weapons not found anywhere else Note Some of the Bosses have the same weapons

Morwen Ultimate weapon

Use Steal Item from the Witch King at Pelennor Fields to get the Third Age Rohirric Silver Battle Ax base x90 9 per level 8 Str 2 Dex 3 Spd

Osgiliath Easy win

When you are the Witch King in Evil mode put Fear on everyone except Berethor He is immune to it Take out Berethor because he is the only one who can attack Then just kill Elegost Gandalf and Eaoden

Osgiliath Losing Idrial

When you go to the sewers try to complete all tasks before saving Idrial If this is not done and you go back to finish the tasks you did not complete after finishing the mission Idrial will not be able to be used anymore for the rest of the game There is no way to bring her back

Pellenor Fields Evil mode

The Mumakil should have enough HP to survive an onslaught of attacks When you have the offensive wipe their AP with sweeping tusks When reduced to regular melee they have no chance The Witch King is easier because any health they chip off him is recouped with Devour Flesh Finally there is Sauron Open with Paralysis Of Light then peck them off one by one with Darkest Fear

Plains of Rohan Evil mode

In the first fight you must keep the Chieftain alive and focus on destroying The Fellowship with Foul Sleep Next on the bridge focus on Elegost Have your archers pick off the rest long after your frontline is gone With Grima Wormtounge you can destroy them with Black Speech and help from your UrukHai allies With Sharku you have to use your attacks to finish them fast

Recommended weapons

Throughout the game there will be many different weapons swords spears bows axes The better weapons for Berethor would be the First Age Mithril lon sword of the Valar For Eaoden the Second Age Silver Spear of the Queen of Lorien For Hadhod use his Second Age Dwarven Mithril piercing axe

Remove Idrial From Party

After beating Osgiliath travel back there Idrial will be removed from your party until you reach a save point near the end of the Pelennor Fields due to a glitch from the Osgiliath Save Idrial quest Developers mistake or someones sick idea of a joke We may never know

Rohan

When you are opening all the gates start at the farthest left you can go until you can go up Then get that gate Go to where it opened Watch out as you will get into a lot of fights in Rohan Just continue from there

Some of the best stuff on the first level


First you have to complete the game once you dont have to get all the attacks just beat Sauron at the end of Pelennor fields Then start a new game Save it and exit

At the main menu go to more then evil mode Load it as your completed game Select a level eg Minas Tirith and do the level When you get your stuff save it to your new game Then load up your new game and go to Equip

If you do Minas Tirith Berethor should have the best lower body armour he can get darkened Numenorian steel fauld armour68 5star Also he should have Sword of Isildur High king of Gondor damage 205 5star


Transferring Evil Mode treasure

Any treasure acquired in Evil Mode can be transferred to a regular saved game

Unlimited items

Got to Eregion after you get the Craft Item Stone Then find an Archer Cast Fellowship Grace with Belethor and the Haste Of The Elves ability with Idrial on whoever has the Craft Item Stone equipped You will never run out of AP and the character creating items goes very fast producing a lot of items This is especially useful for the Elf Medicine item Also you can level up character abilities that do not damage foes

Unlockable Epic Movie Scenes

Complete the Quest or task below to Unlock the Epic movie Scenes

West Moria Evil mode

The Goblins may have a difficult time if The Fellowship focuses on taking them out However the Watcher in the Water should be in for a solid win after a few blasts of Wreaking Spout
