Defeating Bosses:
An easy way to defeat the Bosses is to buy four or five of the following
items before the fight:
Triple Shot, Rapid Fire, a magical amulet (Acid, Light, Fire, etc.) that the
Boss is weak against.
Get close and press the button as fast as possible. It is amazing how
quickly the Boss' life goes
down. This strategy can be used for every Boss in the game and also makes
the Spider Queen
very easy.
If you have at least 10,000 gold, buy two Invincibilitys, two Rapid Fires,
two Super Shots, and two
Phoenixes. Use the rest of the money on any of those four to have some
extras. Enter the battle and
just hold X. You will not get hurt and the Boss will die in a few seconds.
Buy five to eight hammers, go up to the Boss, and press X as quickly as
possible. Since you are
invulnerable while you swing, you almost always never get hit. Use this on
any Boss for easy
experience and gold. Note: It does not work as well with the Queen Spider.
By lots of Super Shot and do not stop shooting at the Boss. Note: This will
not work against the Lich
and Spider Queen.
Defeating Plague:
Go to the far upper right or left. You should be directly next to his vat.
This is his blind spot, and very few
attacks can reach you. Just fire away at him until he is dead. Note: This is
best done with two players,
one on each side of his vat.
Defeating Skorne:
Enable the "10,000 gold per level" code. When you defeat the Wraith, you
should have 40,000 gold.
Next, shop and buy 20,000 gold worth of invincibility and 20,000 gold worth
of the Hammer. When
you run out of hammers, Skorne should at least have half of his life gone,
and you will still have invincibility
throughout the entire battle. Iif you run out of invincibility, use a second
player as a sacrifice.
Defeating Generals:
Fire a strong attack. The General will block it. Then, fire a turbo attack.
Repeat this until they are dead.
For a more powerful hit, use the turbo attack when close to them.
Easy experience:
Killing the Spider Queen repeatedly. She is worth the best experience. If
you have some friends playing,
have them use the "Defeating Bosses" trick for rapid killing. You can get
two to three levels per fight
depending on how long your items lasted.
Go to any level in the Forsaken Province world. Instead of destroying a
generator, keep killing the enemies.
If you have gotten to the Plague Fiend in the Sky World, use the trick where
you go to the top right or left
corner and attack the Plague Fiend for an easier victory. Stay there and
throw your weapon at the Plague
Fiend until it dies, then collect the 5 gold pieces it drops. You should
have only lost about 1000 or 2000
health, and at least gained 1 level. When you pick up all the coins, you
should have about 10,000 gold. Next,
go shopping and buy all the Meat you can get. Should have a lot of treasure
remaining to buy other items,
including add-ons to your attack, speed, defense, and magic. Repeat this
until you have all the items and
experience needed.
Stronger magic:
When you use magic, it will be stronger depending on your character's color.
Blue: Lightning potions are stronger and have better radius. Lightning
shields are also larger.
Green: Acid potions are stronger and have better radius. Acid shields are
also stronger
Red: Fire potions are stronger and have better radius. Fire shields are also
stronger.
Yellow: Light potions are stronger and have better radius. Light shields are
also stronger
Maximum character attributes:
Enable the "10,000 gold per level" code. You will start the game with 10,000
gold. Go shopping and buy
magic, armor, strength, or speed until you are out of gold. Return to the
game and you will once again have
10,000 gold. Keep buying attribute level-ups until your character has 999
strength, 999 armor, 999 speed
and 999 magic. You can also replenish your health following a tough level by
buying meat until it is restored.
Save your character or this will have to be repeated.
Level 99 Sumner:
so get the level 99 Sumner, go to the second level of the Battle Grounds,
and play it normally. Find the exit,
then backtrack until you find a bridge. It will be towards the front of the
screen. You should not have to go
far to find it. Enter the trap door and get all the coins. Note: You may
need to unlock all the other secret
characters first. When collecting all the coins, start on the right side.
This level is very difficult and may require
a few attempts. Sumner's stats are:
Level: 99
Strength: 999
Speed: 999
Armor: 999
Magic: 999
Gold: 5000
Health: 9999
Keys: 9
Potions: 9
Mini Mr. T. Dwarf:
Choose the Dwarf as your character and cycle through his colors until you
get to the one where he is
black and is wearing yellow. You will see a near exact Mr. T replica.
Mini Skorne:
When you defeat Skorne the first time, get the items he drops. Wait until
you exit the shop screen,
then put them all on. You look like a smaller version of Skorne. Note: This
works best with the Dwarf.
Forsaken Province world: Mausoleum level: Dead man alive:
Go to where you lower the wooden bridge. Walk near the coffins and you will
hear a person screaming
and pounding to get out.
Finding Runestones:
Go to Sumner and scroll down to "Runestones". It will tell you the next
Runestone location.
Avoiding traps:
Use levitation to get over traps. You can walk over them when the spikes
appear.
Screaming and shaking treasure box:
When you use your x-ray vision glasses and see a skull with cross-bones
(Death) in a treasure chest,
stand next to the chest, but do not open it. Use one of your magic potion
bottles. The treasure chest
should start to shake, and you will hear Death screaming.
Turn cherries into apples:
You must be at least at level 60, when you are told that your potions can
purify poisoned food. If there
is a poison barrel next to a cherry, hit the barrel. The cherry should turn
into poison fruit. Next, use a
potion on the poison fruit and it should turn into an apple. Note: Electric
potions will not work.
Glitch: Different color attack:
Use a fast or slow attack with your character, then immediately use a slow
attack. Your attack will be a different color
