More Strength
This trick can be used with Gimli, Aragorn, or Eowyn. First, make sure you have a shield and a two handed weapon equipped. Keep swiching them out and every time you switch them the damage you do will increaselook at the attribute screen to see how much damage you do. The damage you deal will eventualy go back to normal but you can repeat the trick as much as you want.

XP Reverberation
While fighting through any stage, you will naturally accumulate experience. To double or re-double your XP gain, simply let your hero expire before the stage is over and you are forced to restart the stage.
The XP gained previously is kept, but the chance to play through the stage again to get more experience for higher levels is available.
