Lands of Lore: Guardians of Destiny Hints
Combat Tips
1 of 5: Many of the creatures you'll meet, especially at the beginning of the game, are harmless, as long as you don't attack them first. These typically aren't worth any experience points anyway, so there's really no reason to fight them in the first place.
2 of 5: Most of the rest generally have either good long-ranged attacks or good close-up attacks, but not both. You should learn very quickly from experience which creatures fall into which categories. Either stay away from or run up to your opponents as appropriate.
3 of 5: In general, you can tell how well a particular weapon does by equipping it and looking at your character's statistics. Some weapons have special attacks, which you can generally see from watching the viewport -- for example, look for fire or ice coming from your weapon.
4 of 5: You can do the same with shields and other armor -- watch how they improve your protection.
5 of 5: One really nice spell to use at certain points is the Photon Blade (Prism 4). It will let you accumulate magic experience quickly if you aim it at enemies -- you gain a bit of experience for every second you keep the blade pointed at your opponent. If this doesn't work, it probably means your current opponent isn't worth much experience anyway, but you may want to try this trick on later opponents to gain a whole level or two in some cases.
