Hint: Recovery:
When you learn the recover spell, use Chattur'gha (Red) to recover
your health, Xel'lotath (Green) to recover your sanity, or Ulyaoth
(Blue) To recover your magic.

Hint: Defeat the Black Guardian:
Stay as far back as you can, and you may want to assign Magikal
Attack Level 1 and Level 3 as quick spells. Start by dodging its
long ranged attacks, then you will notice a pause. Run about halfway
up to it, then start the Level 1 Magik Attack. The hit will only
connect if the Black Guardian is glowing. Do this three times
and it will draw you closer by moving the barrier. It is however
still far enough to stay out of range of its short attacks. It
will summon three Zombies and then recharge. As soon as your sanity
drops for the first time, begin the Level 3 Magik Attack. It should
connect just in time. Do this three times and it will draw you
still closer. This one is difficult because you have to keep running.
Dodge his attacks six times, and he will become winded and have
to recharge. Use this time to let loose a Level 1 Magik Attack.
Do this three times and he should be down for the count. Retrieve
the essence, and you are done.

Hint: Defeating the Guardians:
To defeat the Guardians, first make sure that all of the enemies
in the room are gone (not including the ones it will summon).
Then, enchant a projectile weapon with the Strong Alignment, and
blast away. It will not attack you directly; it can only use magic.
Watch out -- each time it takes a hit, it will teleport to another
location. After a couple shots (depending on how strong the enchantment
spell was) it should go down.
BassplayerJon.
When fighting the Guardians that open their wings and stab you,
run behind them. You can hit them without waiting for them to
open their wings if you hit their backs. Note: Use Reveal Invisible
with Mantorok to become invisible, then run behind them. They
will still follow you, but will not open their wings to stab you.
Jake Hamilton.
Hint: Defeating Pious:
To defeat Pious at the end of the game, have Alex equipped with
the Enchanted Gladius. If you failed to get it as Michel, enchant
your Gladius with the enchantment spell that works best against
what Pious is. For example, if he is trying to summon Ulyaoth
(blue) then enchant using Xel'lotath (green); if he uses Xel'lotath,
then enchant using Chattur'gha (red); and if he is summoning Chattur'gha,
then use the Ulyaoth enchantment spell. At the start, you will
see him summon the Ancient and it will cast a shield spell around
him. Your summon spell will begin and you will see the two creatures
begin fighting. It will cut to Alex, and the real fight will begin.
Using your Gladius, slash at Pious and you will see a type of
lighting bolt fly in a certain direction from him. Follow to where
it went to see his artifact. Slash it, and it will disappear.
Do this about three or four times. While you are doing this, make
sure not to wear Alex out to where she runs slowly or Pious will
catch her and hit her with magical attack spells and his staff.
At any time if your health drops below 50%, get as far away as
possible and use a three or five point health recover spell. After
three or four hits on his artifact, you will start an intermission
sequence as Ellia. You are her ghost and are in the place where
the tome is kept. Get it and you will appear as her fighting Pious.
Do the same thing as done with Alex one time and you will change
back to Alex. Again, do the same thing with Alex once and you
will assume the ghost form of one of the other characters. Some
of the characters that you will assume are quite slow -- the best
thing to do is wait till Pious starts to do a magical attack spell,
then slash him from behind and quickly run to where the artifact
is located. After you play through the people, the artifact will
shatter. Pious' shield spell will now be gone. Slash away at him
and after awhile he will go down. The game will switch back to
the two Ancients again, and you will see yours prevail. Note:
Soon after this you will be asked to choose a rune on one of the
machines, like earlier. Choose Bankrock (Protect).

Enchant the shotgun that you will receive at some point in the
game. Keep blowing his head of with it. He will be defeated within
seconds. Combine this with the "Instant reload" hint.
Make him chase you to the other end of the platform, and when
he reaches you, sprint back to the other side and you will have
plenty of time to blast him while he tries to waddle back up to
you.
Swish.
Hint: Defeating Horrors:
In levels with a shotgun or rifle, Horrors can be killed rather
easily. Equip your rifle or shotgun (you may want to enchant it),
run behind it, and shoot it in the back. This is even easier if
you use the Reveal Invisible Mantorok spell. Note: The Horrors'
electricity may still shock you, even if you are invisible.
SmeBodyUKno.
Hint: Defeating Skeletons:
When you are surrounded by a lot of Skeletons, just attack them
one by one. Do not worry about the ones attacking you -- dodge
them and run away. If you attack wildly, your character will get
tired. Only attack the closest enemy, but aim for the head so
they cannot see you. Then, run past it, repeat and go for the
kills.
tj.
Hint: Defeating Zombies:
If you have a torch and you are face a large group of Zombies,
swing the torch at them. They will die in one hit. You will have
to do a final blow quickly because they will disappear if you
are too slow. Note: This will only work on the normal (Mantorok)
and green (Xel-ototh) Zombies.

and Chris Libby.
Hint: Absorb Bonethieves:
When in any chapter in Eternal Mode with Bonethieves, let them
bore into you. Since you will not die, this can be done repeatedly
for a strange effect.

Hint: Invisibility:
Use the Reveal Invisible spell with the Mantorok Rune to make
your character invisible.
Bill Meabrod.
To get permanent invisibility, you must first unlock Eternal mode.
Then, go to the main menu and choose "Jump to Game".
Choose any character. When asked if you want "Eternal Mode",
select "Yes", and begin game play. When you finally
find the Tome Of Eternal Darkness, use the Reveal Invisible Spell
with the Mantorok Rune to enable permanent invisibility.

Hint: Anthony's Chapter: Avoiding the first
Trapper:
After you kill the unholy bishop, return to the hallway were Anthony
first sees a Trapper. Run towards the Trapper, then run all the
way back to the door. The Trapper will cast his three trapping
rings, then it will die allowing Anthony to pass. Note: If you
get caught by a Trapper in Karim's chapter, the introductory scene
for the Trapper Dimension will occur.

Hint: Dr. Edward Roivas' Chapter: Defeating
the vampire creature:
Stop its attack on the servant in the upstairs bedroom (the one
on the right). Attack it until it retreats and you see an intermission
sequence of it "refueling". Talk to the servant and
he will give you the Gun Cabinet Key. Take it to the other bedroom
and unlock the gun cabinet, liberating the Elephant Gun. Track
down the vampire creature two more times and it will drop the
top half of the Basement Key. Mix the two halves and enchant the
broken key to fix it. Then, enchant the Elephant Gun with the
Strong Alignment and go to the basement. The first thing you should
do is shoot the relic in the corner with the Elephant Gun (double
barreled). Go back upstairs to reload so it cannot get you. Once
the relic breaks you can attack the creature.
BassplayerJon.
Hint: Dr. Edward Roivas' Chapter: See vampire
creature always:
You can see the vampire creature all the time if you cast Reveal
Invisible. You can now fight him without worrying about when or
where he is going to hit you.

Hint: Dr. Lindsay's chapter: Mantorok Rune:
When playing as Dr. Lindsay, find the two Runes for
Summon and Creature. One is found in a zombie on the staircase
down on the last floor and another is on the last floor in some
cobwebs. Use your archeological brush to uncover it. Combine these
two runes together to make the Summon Trapper spell. Go back up
to the floor with the gold statue and find your way to the machinery
that was uncovered when you dispelled all the magick fields. When
you examine it, you will learn that there is a hole small enough
for a small dog to walk through. Summon a Trapper to walk through
the hole. Inside will be a bridge with two Horrors on each side.
Walk past them and onto a switch with a purple Rune on it. Press
A to kill the Trapper and take control of Lindsey again.
The switch will have opened a door behind you, where the Mantorok
Rune is located.
Bill Meabrod.
Hint: Dr. Lindsay's chapter: Defeating
Winged Guardians:
The Winged Guardians that first appear in Dr. Lindsay's chapter
only spawn new creatures when they hit you. Attack them when they
open their wings, then run back before they strike. You can also
run behind them and hit their backs without them opening their
wings. This works very well when you make yourself invisible,
since they will not open their wings when you are in that state.
Duranna144.
Hint: Dr. Lindsay's chapter: More ammunition:
Get to the point a fter the vampire creature attacks
the first servant and you receive the Gun Cabinet Key for the
Elephant Gun. Every servant that you protect from the vampire
creature after this point will give you shotgun ammunition after
you save them. However, this will only work once with every servant.
You will have more shotgun ammunition to use down in the city
against the guardians, making things easier.
Dan Haley.
Hint: Dr. Lindsay's chapter: Loose your
sanity:
Wait until you finally get the spell to summon Trappers.
When you do so, you can control them for unlimited amount of time,
but your sanity meter will continually drop, causing your player
to go insane after you kill the Trapper by pressing A.
Michael.
Hint: Ellia's chapter: Shortcut:
At the beginning of Ellia's chapter, instead of going
straight and examining the statue, immediately go into the right
door. Going through that section of the temple first eliminates
half of the trouble. Afterwards, continue as normal.
BassplayerJon.
Hint: Mike's chapter: The Enchanted Gladius:
Find the room with the three pictures and make sure
that you have all three effigies. Put the effigies on the ledges
in this order:
Warrior: Blue Effigy
Sorcerer: Green Effigy
Scholar: Red Effigy
This will open a hidden staircase in the circle room before the
hallway that leads to the room you are in. Go down the stairs
and you will enter a room with an Enchanted Gladius. Pick up the
Gladius and complete the level as usual. When it comes time for
Alex to receive the essence of whatever guardian that Mike received
in his level, the Enchanted Gladius will also be in the box. This
Gladius' enchantment will not run out. Use it on Pious and the
battle will go much smoother than fighting him and having to re-enchant
the weapon multiple times.
Dan Haley.
Hint: Michael Edwards' chapter: Zombie
mutilation:
Play the Fireman chapter in Eternal Mode. Pick up the
rifle, select it as your weapon, and select "Mode" until
there is a picture of an ammo-clip next to it. The order is one
bullet, three bullets, clip, grenade rounds. Since you never lose
any bullets, you can now shred enemies without prejudice by simply
holding Attack. When locked-on to zombies, you can blow
off all of their parts by wiggling the Analog-stick during
your relentless spray of bullets. You can even keep hitting them
after they fall to the ground by staying targeted on them.
Michael V. Nowak.
Hint: Peter Jacob's chapter: Kill the rats:
In the A War to End All Wars chapter (World War I,
in the church), select either the revolver or the rifle as your
weapon. Go into any room that has rats running around. Face towards
the rats and press the R (aim). If one of the rats will
glows white, you can shoot and kill it with your gun while targeting
it. This trick works best when you have complete the game three
times and can select "Eternal Mode" so that you have
unlimited bullets.
Michael V. Nowak.
Hint: Opening the safe:
The easiest way to open the safe is to use the D-pad.
The combination is 59 Right, 81 Left and 46 Right.
ANEUDY PEREZ BISBAL.
Hint: Conserving health:
When you encounter multiple enemies, do not go for
the kill if there are enemies near you. They will attack freely
-- avoid them.
tj.
Hint: Reload instantly:
When you run out of ammunition for any weapon, press
Start, then select your gun. Select "Mix", and
choose the ammunition that goes with your gun. It will be loaded
without any time being wasted. This is especially useful when
facing multiple enemies, as reloading is often difficult against
various murderers.
Swish.
Hint: Lose your sanity:
To intentionally lose your sanity, kill the servants
or other people who have not been taken over by Bonethieves.
Gongkum640.
Hint: Controller rumble clues:
Be aware that the game continues even if you forget
some objects, as long as you did not need them to open doors or
secret passages on the previous level. You will pass to another
character and probably need the forgotten object later in the
game. If you end up at a dead end because of this, you will have
to start the game again. To help avoid this, make sure the rumble
feature in the controller is enabled and pay attention to it.
It hints at things that you might not see. Keep your eyes open
and read everything where you find yellow words. They are probably
a hint as to what needs to be done.
cata.
Hint: Pious Face:
With Alex, after the Peter Jacob chapter allow the
game to idle at least five minutes with a low sanity level. Pious
face should appear on the screen, but you will still hear the
cries and laughing. Press any button and the game will return
to normal.
Carlos L. Martinez.
Glitch: Spell floor:
In the death chapter (Dr. Lindsay), go into the room
with all the zombies. Kill them all and look at the floor. The
floor will be the same as your Reveal Invisible spell scroll.
