Lord Of The Rings, The: The Third Age Cheats (PlayStation 2)

Complete the game on hard mode to unlock.

To start 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 2,000 damage points from a normal hit with this weapon.

If you are low on HP or AP, find a save point. Save your game and both your HP and AP will
be completely refilled.

In the first level, find an enemy respawn point near a save point. Once there, keep
attacking until you run out of AP, then save the game to refill your AP and HP. 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, not just
Berethor.

Stock up on Elf Medicine before fighting the Balrog. Have Gandalf use it to bring you back
to life; you will get more unit points back if Gandalf uses it on you. Also, equip any
Fire protection Elf Stones you have. The Balrog has about 70,000 HP.

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.

After talking to Idrial in Eregion, in the first elven waystation, you will fight your
first Orc Shaman. Follow the path to the left and right sides after that fight, you can
finish off a side mission that I missed until Moria, the Wildmen. 

After defeating the 2 warbands in the area proceed to follow the Ravine Path.
Congratulations, you have made it to the only section of the game where the monsters
respawn faster than you can kill them. Stand in the first corner of the path you come
across. Fights now brought to you by The Eye Of Sauron. If you want to heal use items or
the save point just up ahead. Stay in this ravine and fight fight fight until you have
learned what you wanted to learn.

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

Go to Eregion after you get the Craft Item Stone. Then, find an Archer. Cast Fellowship
Grace with Berethor 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.

To defeat the Witch King at the Pelennor Fields, make sure that you have Hadhod's
Second Age Dwarven Mithril Piercing Axe and the Dwarven Mithril Helm. When you face the
Witch King, use these attacks: Berethor's Stunning Strike and Ectehlion Wrath, Hadhod's
Mountain Rage, and Eaoden's Enraging Blow and Rohirrim Rage. The Witch King has 200,562
HP and 59,098 AP.

Enter the fight with Perfect mode. Have your first character use the Banner of Elendil
special. It will not actually stun the Witchking to make him stop attacking, but will
disable his ability to counterattack for a great while. Then, have your next character
use Morgul Decay, an item that completely rids the enemy of its armor. Now that the Witch
King is completely vulnerable and will not counterattack, have your characters deal out
their combos, such as Berethor's Ecthelion Wrath and the Rohirrim's Wrath of Edoras.

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