The Lord of the Rings: Legends of Middle-Earth Cheats, Tips & Strategy

Kabam have just launched a brand new Lord of the Rings themed game on iOS, The Lord of the Rings: Legends of Middle-Earth. Unlike their regular city building game, this is actually a squad building title that involves a lot of exploration and battles, plus hero collecting. And I am here to help you get the most of this game with a complete set of The Lord of the Rings: Legends of Middle-Earth cheats, tips and strategy guides.

From creating the ultimate fellowship to winning the Arena battles and correctly evolving your Heroes, everything is covered here, so check out our Lord of the Rings: Legends of Middle-Earth tips and cheats and improve your game!

Energy and Stamina Cheat
If you run out of each of these and you don’t want to wait for them to replenish, simply quit the game and go to your device’s settings, then fast forward the time. When you get back to the game, you will have your stamina and energy filled.

Create Your Arena Fellowship
Even if you have your fellowship created, for some strange reason, you need to create a new one (usually the same) for the Arena battles. Don’t do like I did and only send your hero into sure-loss battles and instead set up your best Fellowship for the arena!

Check out the bonuses of your Fellowship
When on your Fellowship’s screen, check out the bar at the bottom which shows you the bonuses you can unlock to boost your Fellowship’s stats even more. Some are very easy to achieve (like having all Heroes of a specific levels), while others will require some time to unlock. But check them out and have them in mind when creating your Fellowship.

Hero combos
Not only Fellowships have bonuses, but Heroes can unlock them too via Hero Combos. Each of your Hero, no matter what their rating is, can have a combo or more if paired with other specific heroes. There is a multitude of Hero Combos available in the game with various effects. Check them all out and make sure you have these combos in your team, if you have the members. Usually they are extremely useful and, even if your combo Heroes are of a low rarity, their bonus will make it worth having them in your team

Explore completed stages for XP and Coins
You can explore the completed stages to get extra XP points and Coins. Also, when exploring a certain stage, you will see on the left a number of squares, indicating the heroes you have found in that area. If there are squares with a question mark on them, you have to keep exploring, as this means you haven’t found all heroes there. Even if you have found them, you can still explore the area and have a chance at finding the same heroes multiple times.

This means that a solid strategy to get some nice cards either from selling or for upgrading your existing ones is to keep exploring the same area over and over again. Make sure that you choose an area that gives you high value cards and spend 4-5 energy sets on exploring to get that boost your team needs.

How to correctly Evolve cards
In LOTR: Legends of Middle-Earth, you can evolve your cards to superior tiers by combining two identical cards. The resulting card will be a better tier one, with way better stats. However, if you want to get the most out of the Evolving option, the best thing you can do is to max out the two cards you are leveling up. This way, your new card will be at its strongest ratings and you will be allowed to level it up even more. It takes a lot of work and dedication to do this, but it has to be done if you want to stand a chance in future battles and especially the Arena.

Focus on leveling up your best cards
I think that this is pretty obvious, but I have to say it: start by maxing out your rarest cards because the low rarity ones will eventually be replaced by better ones. Indeed, you will end up having a ton of space for your heroes and not enough high quality cards to replace them, but it’s always a better idea to max out your best cards first.

However, in order to keep the Fellowship bonuses active, upgrade all your Fellowship cards to level 5 (at least) for the boosts.

Log in daily for bonuses
If you log in daily (you don’t even have to play), you will receive a ton of nice bonuses in the game. So make sure that you remember to log in daily and you will get some nice cards for your Fellowship, starting from the day 7.

All in all, The Lord of the Rings: Legends of Middle-Earth is a game that will eventually require you to replay and explore the same areas over and over again to gain the experience and especially the coins and Heroes to level up your chosen ones and build a perfect Fellowship. Fortunately, this is a fun thing to do!
