8. Legolas Character Guide
Legolas Walkthrough (4)
Level 18: Amon Hen - Parth Galen North
--------------------------------------
Difficulty: Easy to Medium
Quick Hint: Follow the first wall
Starting Location: NW corner
Ending Location: SE corner
Shrines: None
Detailed Guide: The easiest way to beat this level is to
just follow the wall at the top of the screen all the
way to the SE corner of the screen. You will have to wrap
around it and sometimes it will change to rubble but this
stragety will get you through this level very quickly and
easily (though it is a little time consuming). You will
know when you are near the exit because you will see a
statue of a human right near the exit.
----------------------------------------------------------
Level 19: Amon Hen - Slopes
---------------------------
Difficulty: Easy to Medium
Quick Hint: Find Frodo and then backtrack
Starting Location: W side
Ending Location: NW corner
Shrines: None
Detailed Guide: This level can be pretty straightfoward
for most people. You start off on the West side of the
level and you need to make it to the right side. To do
this, go right until you reach a large wall of rubble.
When you reach this wall of rubble start going down until
you see a gap in the wall. Go right into the gap and go
right until you reach the right edge of the level. If you
go down from here you will reach a shrine, one that sells
skill points, one of the best values in the game. To
actually beat the level you need to go up until you reach
a raised area with stairs leading up to it. Go near the
stairs and talk to Aragorn.
Cutscene-
Legolas: Aragorn, any sign of Frodo?
Aragorn: He was here... Boromir tried to take the Ring.
Legolas: Boromir? Frodo... is he-
---
Legolas: Boromir's horn!
Aragorn: Back to the boats - quickly!
After the short cutscene finishes, your final goal is to
just go back the way you came. Go down the stairs and go
to the left until you reach that giant wall of rubble.
Follow the rubble down until you reach a gap. Go left
through that gap. Go NW until you reach the point at
which you entered the level and exit there.
----------------------------------------------------------
Level 20: Amon Hen - Parth Galen North (Round 2)
------------------------------------------------
Difficulty: Easy to Medium
Quick Hint: Backtrack; Follow the wall
Starting Location: SE corner
Ending Location: NW corner
Shrines: None
Detailed Guide: You can use the same trick used when first
going through the level when you backtrack through it.
Walk along the wall that you encounter first when entering
this level, wrapping around it and following along it no
matter what it changes to (water, rubble...). Eventually
you will begin going upwards and then turn left. This wall
will take you directly to the end of this level.
----------------------------------------------------------
Level 21: Amon Hen - Nen Hithoel (Round 2)
------------------------------------------
Difficulty: Medium to Hard - Boss Level
Quick Hint: Backtrack; Cross the bridge at least
Starting Location: SE corner
Ending Location: West edge
Shrines: None
Detailed Guide: This level is a boss level, where you will
fight the Uruk-Hai captain Lurtz, as in the movie. To beat
this level, start going diagonally up (northwest) from the
beginning of the level. You will pass through a gap between
two walls and eventually reach a bridge. You can pause
before crossing the bridge to recouperate and restore some
lost health and/or spirit points before fighting the boss.
After crossing the bridge, there will be a very short scan
of the area and you will be propelled into battle with
Lurtz! (Look into the Bosses section for help on defeating
him.) After defeating him, you will need to find the dying
Boromir on the West edge of the level. If you need help in
finding his exact location pause for a moment and wait for
the direction arrow to appear. When you find him, Gimli
and Aragonr will run up to talk to you. Boromir dies and
Aragorn reveals to Legolas and Gimli that you let Frodo go
and that you want to 'Hunt some Orc' in Rohan:
Cutscene-
Aragorn: Boromir is dead... Sam and Frodo have departed.
Legolas: We can still catch Frodo if we-
Aragorn: No, Legolas...
Legolas: You mean not to follow them?
Aragorn: We have other business in the West. Saruman's
forces are growing.
Gimli: Then we should not delay! Saruman's Orcs are not
hard to track, but they are fast.
----------------------------------------------------------
Level 22: Rohan - Eastemnet South
---------------------------------
Difficulty: Medium
Quick Hint: Explore
Starting Location: SE corner
Ending Location: SW corner
Shrines: Top Middle (Forge)
Detailed Guide:
There is a quick dialogue:
Cutscene-
Aragorn: The vast plains of Rohan!
Legolas: Not enough tress to make a decent home.
Gimli: Nor enough rock to build anything sturdy. Hmph!
Aragorn: But plently of sun to help us find Orc prints.
Let's go genltemen - we don't want them to reach
Isengard.
Congratulations, you are now in the vast expansive land
of Rohan, hunting orcs... Go left from the start of the
level until you reach a wall. Go up along the wall.
Continue going up when the wall ends and changes into
large rocks. Turn left when you can, and continue in that
direction until you reach a river. Walk down along the
riverbank until you reach a bridge that crosses the
river. After crossing the river, walk up along the river-
bank. Do this until you reach the top edge of the level
and a shrine (Forge). Walk along the uppermost wall in a
western direction. Keep going until you reach a cave that
releases wolves. Go down. If done right, you will find
yourself in a very thin passage. Go through this passage
until you reach the end of the level!
----------------------------------------------------------
Level 23: Rohan - Plains
------------------------
Difficulty: Medium
Quick Hint: Left, Right, Left...
Starting Location: SE corner
Ending Location: NW corner
Shrines: None
Detailed Guide:
Upon entering the level, go left, walking along the top
wall. Do this until you can go up, which will be when
there is a little passage between two rocks. Go right, and
continue in that direction until you reach a blue pool.
Use the blue pool and then go left, walking along the wall
above the blue pool. Eventually it will terminate, and
there will be a path leading upwards, made of dirt. Follow
the path until it becomes very fat and undefined. Go up
a little and turn to the right and go through the small
passage formed by the rocks. Do this until you can start
going up. Going up will take you directly to the end of
the level.
----------------------------------------------------------
Level 24: Rohan - East Wall
---------------------------
Difficulty: Medium
Quick Hint: Explore around
Starting Location: SE corner
Ending Location: NE corner
Shrines: NW corner (Forge)
Detailed Guide:
Upon entering the level, go up until you reach a wall.
Turn left and follow the wall until it terminates. Where
it terminates there will be a few extraneous rocks and
rubble. Go northeast until you reach your allies Gimli
and Aragorn. When you approach them they will just run
away. Follow them upwards. If you get close enough you
will have a dialouge scene.
Cutscene-
Legolas: Aragorn, look here!
Aragorn: A slaughter... Mordor orcs versus Saurman's breed.
Legolas: These tracks head north, deeper into Fangorn
Forest.
Gimli: Fangorn! More devilish Elven woods.
Legolas: The forest is very old, indeed. Old and angry.
Aragorn: Stay alert, stay close.
Your allies will leave but you may see them helping fight
against the orcs later in the level. After the cutscene go
northwest if you want to reach a shrine. If you want to
make it to the Forge, you have to make your way to the
very northwest corner of the level. To beat the level,
from where you met your allies, go up until you reach a
wall. Go right along the wall until you see a gap leading
upwards. Go up and turn left until you reach the end of
the level.
----------------------------------------------------------
Level 25: Fangorn - Copse
--------------------------
Difficulty: Medium
Quick Hint: Cross the river at least twice
Starting Location: SE corner
Ending Location: NE corner
Shrines: None
Detailed Guide:
You start the level in view of a river. Go to the river
and walk up along the riverbank until you reach a bridge
across it. When you start to cross it, you will see some
Orcs talking:
Cutscene-
Orc: My blade can cut through a tree in one blow.
Orc 1: How about an elf, boss?
Finish crossing the bridge and begin walking down along
the riverbank. until you see a path leading west. Walk
along the path. It should eventually reach an intersection
of four paths. Take the far left one. It will terminate
very soon, but ignore that and continue going upwards.
Turn right when you see a tree near a pit in the ground.
Keep going right until you reach another path. Begin
following it; it will take you to the end of the level.
It will take you across a bridge. If you ever think the
path splits, take the upper route.
----------------------------------------------------------
Level 26: Fangorn - Watery Glades
----------------------------------
Difficulty: Medium
Quick Hint: Cross the river
Starting Location: Bottom
Ending Location: NW corner
Shrines: None
Detailed Guide:
At the beginning of this level you will be on a dirt path.
Walk along this path until you reach a bridge that will
let you cross the river. A forest troll will great you on
the bridge. Go up and right just a little until you reach
a red pool. Use that pool and then return to the river.
Walk along the riverbank down, and keep going until you
have reached two chests. From the second chest, go up
until you reach the very top of the level. When you do,
just go left until you see a path leading to the end of
the level.
