Jade Empire Cheats (Xbox)

Save near the end of the game. You can then choose to complete the game as desired and
view each of the three different endings.

When you enter the Imperial Arena fights, do not lose any matches before becoming champion
to gain a strong technique.

If you are running low on health in battle, hold B (block) and hold White (heal) to heal
yourself without receiving damage from enemies. Note: This drains Chi energy.

For enemies who continue to block after every time you break their shield, simply jump
behind them and use a normal combo at their back: press A(3). This will send them falling
forward. They will start attacking again, but eventually will start blocking. Repeat this
as many times as needed.

When you visit the Black Leopard School at the Imperial City, you will fight four
students. Defeat them and you will talk to the first brother. Agree to join the school
and support the Open Palm Master. You will end up fighting the Closed Fist Master.
Afterwards, the Open Palm Master will teach you Paralyzing Palm and give you the items
that the Closed Fist Master promised you.

Successfully complete the game and allow the credits to continue until the end to hear
extra dialog from various characters.

When training to be a Lotus Assassin, talk to the woman that you replaced to be a trainer.
See what she has for sale. In her wares, she has the Ice Shard style. Buy it and you can
control fire and ice; or if you start with ice then you will get fire from her.

Use the following trick to increase the damage you deal for a short period of time. Go
into focus mode then power up your martial skills with Chi. The focus will make it harder
for your opponents to dodge your attacks and the Chi power up will make you deal greater
damage.

Play with any character following the Path Of The Closed Fist. Stand still for awhile and
watch your shadow; it will grow tentacles.

After talking to Master Li, go into the other room. You will find a chest that has
three small statues in it; take them. Then, go to the large statue of a lion. Approach
the altar, and whatever color his palm glows, place the corresponding statue there. After
you have placed all three statues you will receive one silver coin. You can do this until
you receive 17 silver coins, and you will keep the small statues. If you decide to
destroy the alter, you will be given 24 silver coins and will lose the small statues.
Additionally, to get silver and a item at the start of the game, after you talk to Master
Li there is a statue in the room next to the one where you and Li had a discussion. In the
room with the statue is a chest with colored lions. Put the lions one by one on the wooden
frame corresponding to the color of the sphere the statue lion holds. For example, blue
sphere, blue lion, etc. You can do this seventeen times and get silver coins. With those
silver coins, go out in the back of the school (not where smoky mountain is, but on the
other side). There is a path that leads up to a spot where two students are training.
Defeat them for easy experience. Then, keep exploring that area. You will see a bridge
with a burial memorial. Deposit the silver coins and you will get the headstone. Take
that head stone to the lion statue and put it in place. Three more colors will appear on
the sphere. Choose the correct combinations of the lions to get a lion statue that helps
with your health and something else. Note: Do not break the table because you will
only get twenty silver coins and it is not worth it. If you break table you will not be
able to do this trick.

Instead of foisting your essence gems off on the Magical Abacus or random merchants,
save them until you reach the Imperial City. Make your way to the Arena and fight through
the ranks until Lucky Cho and Sweet Poison Lyn make their "offer." After either refusing
or accepting, sell your gems to the poisoner. She will pay twice the amount for the gems
that the Abacus will pay. This is an extremely useful tactic to make a lot of money.

Instead of getting the maximum number of coins from the altar, get a coin, then
explore the tomb of the old master of the school. Put a coin in the bowl. You will then
get the symbol from the tomb. Go back to the lion altar, place the symbol in the lion's
mouth, and the test will change. Complete the new test (yellow + blue = green, yellow +
red = orange, and red + blue = purple), and you will receive the Gaze of the Lion, which
will give you a few bonuses.

While in Chapter 3, take the side quest from the gravedigger. Kill the elder Fong and talk
to his son. After that he starts to walk away. Quickly talk to him before he leaves and
keep pressing A. Instead of walking, you will just stand there when you move around.

When you are at Tien's Landing and are about to close the dam, there is an orphanage in
one of the corners before you enter the quarry. When you get the old caretaker from the
tavern to go back and the bury the bones of the children, there will be a ghost in the
background as he is speaking. It will be by the back wall. When he finishes speaking, he
will disappear. It looks like he is making funny faces and such. Note: This was done
while being a follower of the Open Palm Road.

When at the arena, talk to the gambler and play a game. If you manage to win twenty times
in a row, he will explode. Also, if you win more than 5,000 silver, he will stop gambling
with you and say that you are bad for business.

When you get to the Imperial City, you will encounter an officer who is offering bounties.
Go to the Scholars Garden to find Scholar Kongyu. If you have Sky with you he will ask a
question and confuse Kongyu. He then reveals his plight to you. He claims the bounty is
unjust. If you decide to help him leave the city, you will see just how much a fool he
is.

When trying to become part of the Lotus Assassins, you can be tough as needed while trying
to get in. If you are following the Path Of The Open Palm, it will not count against you.

In the Imperial City, at the Black Leopard school, you can choose to side with one of the
two masters, each following a way. You will be confronted by each of them. They will both
tell you to kill the opposite. Either way, you will get a gem labeled "Damage Shield".
This surrounds you in a shield that reduces damage significantly.

Block in front of him by holding B. When you see him turn blue and hold his axes up,
quickly roll beside him and attack him with a combo. Then, switch to block and repeat. He
should not do the three step combo he has, because every time he sees the shield, he
should go for his strong attack which will give you time to perform a combo. He may also
try and perform an area attack, which you can block and fit a few hits in before blocking
again.

Before fighting the final battle with the Glorious Strategist on your second trip to the
Imperial Palace, check in with the Magical Abacus. He will have three books for sale. One
will add +50 Health, another +50 Chi, and the final one will add +50 Focus. Each book
costs 50,000 silver, but can provide that extra edge to defeat Sun Li. Additionally,
towards the end of the game, you will obtain a power called Jade Golem. It is very strong
but uses a lot of Chi. Work up Spirit evenly throughout the game, and when you get the
Jade Golem, get the stat on it that makes it not us as much Chi. Then, max it out. After
that you will go to Dirge and then back to the palace. When you face Sun Li, freeze him
if you started out with Ice Shard or bought it from the Lotus trainer. Use your X attack
because being hit does not stop it unless he is using Paralyzing Palm. He will probably
lose about a quarter to half his health, depending on if you have Chi Strike on or not.
Do this two to four times and he should be dead. If not, just hit him with the regular A
attack until he dies.

You can find enhanced weapons when playing as Dawn Star, Silk Fox, or Whirlwind. They
appear in chests in their respective levels. For the girls, run down to the fountain in
that area and a chest will appear on the far side when you get close enough. Whirlwind's
weapon is near a wall. These upgrades significantly increase your deadliness in those
scenarios.

Always select "Attack" between each chapters and complete the Dragonfly missions to unlock
the Dragonfly mini-game at the main menu.
