Q & A

Read below for some more tips and the answers to everything you still want to know.

I can't beat (insert enemy name here), what do I do?
If you have Idrial's Aura of Valar Skill, cast that on her and then all of your teammates. If they are struck down, they will be 100% revived and given an automatic attack. If you keep doing this, it is almost impossible to lose.

I still can't beat that guy.
Make use of all of your items. Defy Spirit Phials will up your defense significantly. Many other items will keep you strong and your opponent weak.

Nope. Still need help.
Many enemies can be slowed. Use Hadhod's Crippling Smash or Elegost's Crippling Shot. If you use these Skills each time your turn comes up, the enemy will never be able to attack. Examine the opponent with Elegost to see if they are vulnerable to such attacks.

I can't find the 2nd Age Elven Crystal Tiara of Nenya, where is it?
All items that can be found in chests are detailed in the Walkthrough section of this guide. Remember, some objects can only be obtained through Evil Mode. Look through those sections before going insane looking for an item (and the Tiara is in Osgiliath).

What is Evil Mode?
Evil Mode allows you to play as minions of Sauron and fight against the good heroes. If you win a series of battles, you will be given several Treasures. You can then select a Save Game to put these items in to. To access Evil Mode for a level, you must first beat that level. Then, select More on the Main Screen and go to Evil Mode.

I'm lost.
Check your Mini Map in the upper right hand corner of the screen. Quest goals are highlighted by orange dots. Try walking in that direction.

Ask Electronic Arts. They made the game. Thankfully, there aren't any Hobbits named Brodo or Larry.

What is the best weapon in the game?
Berethor's 1st Age Mithril Long Sword of the Valar has a damage rating of 250. You'll get it as a reward for winning a battle late in the game.

What are Epic Scenes and where are they located?
Epic Scenes are scenes from the Lord of the Rings movies that help tell the story. If you follow the Walkthrough, you'll find them all. Most you will find by just going through the storyline. Others you will receive in chests or after defeating some enemies.

How long is this game?
The average game player will beat this game in 20-25 hours with everything 100% complete.

What are Elfstones?
Elfstones will increase your Stats when you equip them. Anyone can use them and you may put up to four on each character.
