Cheat Codes/Hints
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.
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 the Witch King
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.
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
To unlock Evil Mode, defeat each stage in the game.
Good sword for Berethor
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 2,000 damage points from a normal hit with this weapon.
Haldir, Elf lord
Finish the game on hard mode.
Item Exploit
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.
Restore HP and AP
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.
SP Exploit
In Eregion, after talking to Idrial in the first elven waystation, you will fight your first Orc Shaman. This fight is just the beginging of your easy journey. Follow the path to the left and right sides after the 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. Congrats, 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.
Note: This helps you learn new skills faster, but it will not help you gain levels, on SP.
