Erebor: Belt
After Smaug is defeated, you will be in Erebor. After
solving the block riddle, Bombur will want you to find a belt.
Next to Thorin are wooden platforms. Climb them and get the belt.
Then in the gear room, climb up the wooden platforms in the back
of the room and put it in the gears.
Lake Town: Wine bottle riddle
Once you get all five of the wine bottle in Lake-Town,
Malloc will tell you a riddle about how the bottles are arranged.
The order is as follows:
1. Yellow Wine Bottle
2. Blue Wine Bottle
3. Red Wine Bottle
4. Black Wine Bottle
5. Purple Wine Bottle
Mirkwood Forest: Avoiding spiders
Go to the North Camp. After you fill the hole with
water, go to the camp. Slowly walk toward the gold chest until
spiders appear. Then, run back to the water and jump onto the
log. If done correctly, the spiders will have followed you to
the water. The spiders will try to get you, but will instead fall
in the water. You will not get the courage points, but you will
have saved your life bubbles.
Stay at the North Camp. Destroy all the webs except the one that
makes you fall into a pit. Forget that one and just continue with
the game. When You return to the North Camp, destroy that web.
You will fall into a pit. Normally a huge spider would have been
in the pit, but if you killed all the spiders first, that spider
will no longer appear.
Waters Of Vigour
After you are done getting all the food for Bombur,
go to a well in the apple orchard. The Hobbit that was standing
there earlier should be gone. Press [Square] and a bucket
should come up with the Waters Of Vigour in it.
Defeating Smaug
Stay behind the debris until all of the fire is gone.
Even though he stops, some fire is still there and it will kill
even if you take one step out. The ring will not help you at all.
Saving Beorn
In order to save Beorn on the last level, you must
push four different blue barrels located around the area. Follow
the courage crystals and do not stop to fight. Use the ring when
you encounter enemies, because you are timed.
Easy courage points
On the last level when you meet Liana, she will start
fighting the Goblins. There will be an unlimited amount of them.
If you need to level up, stay there for awhile and collect all
of the courage points.
In the last level (Gathering Of The Clouds), when you meet up
with Lianna, you can get endless courage points by either waiting
at the top of the ladder for Lianna to kill all of the Orcs, or
by fighting them yourself. The Orcs will keep appearing, supplying
you with endless courage points.
At the beginning of the final level (The Clouds Burst) after talking
to Gandalf and receiving his message, look around. You will see
three female Elves. Face away from Gandalf and Elvenking Thranduil.
Then, go to the female elf on your left. Talk to this female elf
seven times and a lot of courage points (value 50) will appear,
which you will automatically collect. This will total 2,000 courage
points. To talk seven times faster, press [Start]. If you
do not receive the 2,000 courage points, you are probably talking
to the wrong female elf. In this case, just try the others until
you get the courage points.
Mithrill Chainmail Vest
When you get to the level after defeating Smaug, one
of the Dwarves should give you a chainmail vest.
Walking stick
Until you obtain Sting, the walking stick will be used
mainly for combat. Once you do obtain Sting, drop the combat aspect
and only use it for jumping. When moving forward, quickly press
[L1] then [X] to use your walking stick to jump. Be
careful -- using it on shorter jumps may result in over-jumping.
