This guide may help out in fighting properly with each of the three playable characters. As Frodo, you cannot always fight very effectively, as you have only a walking stick and sting, plus a few throwing rocks. The best strategy on a tough enemy as Frodo is to simply turn tail and run.

As Gandalf, however, you can stand your ground and fight to a certain extent. Do not abuse your magic, though. You might finish off a huge troll just to find another one around the corner, and if your Staff Strike or Lightning Strike is used up, you have no choice but to work your way past the monster or kill him with Glamdring.

Aragorn is an extremely diverse player. He has arrows and an effective sword, so you can stand your ground significantly longer than the other two. Aragorn is reliable and usually has many health replenishers. He is my favorite character in the game. Hopefully this has helped you beat or perfect your skill in this game.
