DEVELOPING YOUR HEROES
You will form a fellowship of six heroes as you quest through Middle-earth, and though you cannot change their
roles in the story, you have a great deal of flexibility in determining their strengths and abilities in combat.
GAINING EXPERIENCE
There are two ways to gain experience points in Lord of the Rings: The Third Age:
COMBAT QUESTS
Characters who do not participate in the battle (or who Each chapter has between two and 10 separate quest objec-

BASIC TRAINING
CHARACTER STATS
When you gain enough experience to go up a level, you’ll usually earn two stat points to spend on any of the character’s stats. Each
character’s stats increase automatically, as well, so although you can help direct their growth, many of the decisions are made
automatically. Hadhod’s Constitution, for example, will always grow whether you spent points on it or not. The five stats are:

Spirit boosts the efficacy of your Spirit Skills by a huge margin. It’s worth a bunch of Action Points and even a few Hit
Points, and makes a significant difference in your ability to resist enemies’ Spirit Skills.
4 INTRO
LEARNING NEW SKILLS
Each character has three skill trees, usually representing Weapon Skills, Spirit Skills, and Passive Skills. Each character
also learns Perfect Mode Skills (which are the same for every character), and can unlock up to three other skill trees by
equipping special Elfstones.
Most skills can only be gained by using skills higher (i.e., weaker) on the skill tree. So if you use your Weapon Skills
more than your Spirit Skills, your character will end up with a wide variety of Weapon Skills and relatively few Spirit
Skills. Each time you use a skill, you gain one Skill Point for that skill tree; the point is applied toward learning whatever
skill you’ve selected in the Skills menu. Passive Skills and Perfect Mode Skills are the exceptions; instead of gaining SP by
using these in combat, you gain one SP for their skill trees every time you gain a level. Typically, you will learn a new skill
in these trees every five levels.
A few tips for learning skills:

ENEMY ENCOUNTERS
There are three types of encounters in Lord of the Rings: The Third Age:

THE BATTLE QUEUE
The enemies you encounter in Lord of the Rings: The Third Age may be difficult, but the battle queue always gives your party
an advantage. By seeing the order in which each character acts in combat, you can plan a long-term strategy that will lead
to victory with a minimum amount of wasted effort.

6 INTRO
SKILL TYPES
Most characters are capable of using both weapon attacks and Spirit Powers. Although both can damage foes, they have
very different properties. For one, weapon attacks hit or miss depending on your Dexterity, and the amount of damage
they do is based on your Strength and your opponent’s Armor value. Spirit attacks, on the other hand, always hit. This
makes them ideal against difficult-to-hit enemies, but they usually do less damage. The exact damage they inflict is deter-
mined by your Spirit score and your target’s Spirit Defense.
Some enemies have specific vulnerabilities and resistances to various skill types, so your attacks are even more effec-
tive if you match the right attack type with the right enemy. You can see an enemy’s vulnerabilities by using Elegost’s
Examine command or checking the Enemies section in the back of this book.
WEAPON SUBTYPES
Slashing—The swords used by Berethor and Idrial and
the axes used by Hadhod and Morwen are all slashing
weapons. As a general rule, lightly armored foes are vulner-
able to slashing attacks.
Piercing—Elegost’s arrows and Eaoden’s spears are pierc-

ing weapons. There are many exceptions, but unusually
large enemies tend to be weak to well-placed piercing
strikes.
Blunt—Hadhod’s warhammers are the only blunt

weapons available to your party. Blunt weapons are typical-

yourself with the Elfstone of Fell Shadow.
STATUS CONDITIONS
There is a wide variety of status conditions that your enemies can inflict on you, and that your characters can inflict on
their foes. Most negative status conditions can be removed by items or Idrial’s Cleanse Shadow skill (which is also avail-
able through the Elfstone of Pure Light), but it’s usually easier to just swap out an afflicted character for a fresh one from
your bench. All status conditions are cleared at the end of combat.
Many enemies are immune to certain conditions, and you can tell which foe is immune to what by using Elegost’s
Examine skill or by checking the Enemies section of this book. In addition to the status conditions listed here, there are
many that raise or lower a particular stat of an ally or enemy.

There are only two varieties of Orc in the first part of this area: Archer Rabble and Sword Warriors. The
Archer Rabble have far fewer hit points, so as a general rule you should hit them first and hardest to take
them out of the fight before you focus in on their stronger comrades. You’ll gain a level after roughly
every other fight in the early part of the game, and going up a level always refills your Action Points, so
use your skills as much as you can. It’s particularly important to use Berethor’s Sword Craft so he can

Now that you’ve completed the first chapter, you can quit the game after you save and attempt Evil

the previous chapter. In the first chapter, there is also a new fight in which the full party battles a

It’s a lot of fun to use what you know of your party’s weaknesses against them, like the fact
that Idrial is the easiest to kill, and Hadhod the hardest. If you win the series of four battles in
Chapter 1, you can choose a saved file and put Cracked Elfstones of Armor, Health, and Action

ORCS AND URUK-HAI
The armored Orcs and Uruk-hai seem very similar, but in truth they have different vulnerabilities. The
heavy armor of the Orcs in this area makes them especially vulnerable to blunt attacks (like the strikes
from Hadhod’s warhammer), while the lightly armored Uruk-hai are weak to slashing attacks from
Berethor and Idrial’s blades. Uruk-hai are also weak to Shadow, so the Balrog’s Elfstone of Fell Shadow

top 10 TiPs from the game developers!
You might think the people who make the game know a thing or two about playing it. If so, you’re right!
We’ve assembled the following list of gameplay tips straight from the designers.
1. Watch the HP of each character so you don’t end up in battles with a weak party, especially since enemies often strike
first, before you have time to heal injured members.
2.. Spend your stat points immediately every time you level up, as this often enhances HP and AP.
3. Every AP-associated action builds Skill Points, so deliberately use your skills to gain SP every chance you get.
4. Use Berethor’s Leadership-enhancing skills every chance you can, especially at the start of difficult combats. It works
wonders on all your party.
5. Try to bring every character into each battle, and have them perform one effective action. This ensures each character
in your party receives maximum XP for the battle.
6. Pay attention to your skill tree and decide which skills will benefit you best. You do not have to always invest your
Skill Points in the default selections.
7. Use the camera controls to look around in every environment. Some chests are hidden and won’t appear until you peek
around some obstruction.
8. Play Evil mode while playing through the game, as it will unlock some special weapons that cannot be found during
normal play.
FINAL WORDS OF WISDOM...

9. Use the Elfstone of Nimble Crafting to develop Crafting skills, and be sure to share it with multiple members of your
party, always crafting extra items during easy encounters.
10. Travel back through the first two episodes with the last few characters who join your party before you move on to
Episode 3. There are special items to be obtained (or stolen!) if you do this.
