Prince of Persia 2 - Warrior Within
Secret Ending:
--------------
To get the secret ending simply obtain all 9 life upgrades, when you get to
the room before the Empress' throne room there will be a new sword waiting
for you. It is the water sword and said to be the only thing that can kill
the Dahaka. For your final battle, instead of fighting the Empress you fight
the Dahaka.
The Dahaka's attacks are repetitive and predictable. When far away he will
shoot his tendrils throw the ground up at you, run around in circles to avoid
it making your way ever closer to him. If you get too close he'll shoot out
his tendrils directly at you, roll to dodge them. As you roll slow down time
and go in for some heavy combo hitting, as you get him lower in health the
Empress will help you and shoot him off the arena, he will be stuck on the ledge,
stock up on sand tanks (They regenerate around the arena) and slow down time or
use Ravages of time to inflict maximum damage. He'll eventually get back up and
jump at you, constantly roll until he calms down and remains stationary. Repeat
the same method as before until he is defeated.
Teddy Bear:
-----------
One of the miscellaneous secondary weapons is the teddy bear. Locate it after
earning the Scorpion Sword in the clock (west) tower. There are three encounters
with a giant golem enemy in the clocktower when you initially go through it; the
first is before you start negotiating the vertical climbing of the tower (past);
the second is atop the clock tower (past); the third is is stationary and throws
exploding monsters in the clock tower's second area (past).
Look for the room where the second giant golem enemy is. You will need to be in the
present (so find a time portal) and drop into the water-filled dead end past the
golem's room. Break the wall and retrieve the teddy bear.
The teddy bear is almost unbreakable and does almost no damage, but has the ability
to restore lost life to the Prince with each successful blow on an enemy.

With all pedestals found you will be able to get the Water sword which is in the room
before the throne room. It will be in the center. The Water Sword gives you an alternate
ending as it is the only weapon capable of defeating the Dahaka.
Hockey Stick:
-------------
After you obtain the Scorpion sword find your way back to the central room.
Turn the turnstile so that the lever is facing the doorway with the save point
fountain. Stand facing the opposite doorway and walk up a bit and to the right.
You will find a ledge that is one step lower than the area around you. Walk down
and grab on to it. Jump to the opposite ledge and jump back and forth to slowly
make your way down. Once you reach the bottom drop down to the ledge below it.
Wall run to the next wall and get ready to jump off and back and forth to make your
way up. Wall run again and when you reach the end wall jump to slow your descent
once more, you'll eventually grab onto a ledge. Make your way to the doorway that
is next to it, but DON'T GO IN. Instead keep going on the rocks until you see the
area where sand is falling. With the scorpion sword in hand break the wall. Break
the rack of weapons and pick up the hockey stick.
As with all special weapons the hockey stick is unbreakable, but if you throw it
you lose it for good. It has moderate damage and a relatively slow attack rate.
Light Sword:
------------
The light sword is the most powerful secondary weapon in the game. When in the
mystic caves you come upon a door that you must unlock via switch. Directly after
that door there is a drop in the floor. Drop down and break the left wall and break
the rack to pick up the light sword. As with all secondary weapons it is unbreakable,
but if you throw it you lose it for good. The light sword has maximum damage and
maximum attack rate.
