Overdraw:
You know that really cool Overdraw attack Legolas has? Once you acquire it, you can hit both the "A" button and the "B" button. HOLD THEM DOWN TOGETHER. You can now do 1 of 2 things: 1)Release them at the same time for the two arrows two be released, hot on eachother's tails. 2 2) Release the "B" button. Your regular attack has been fired off into some poor, unfortunate Orc...(YEAH RIGHT!) The power meter rings are still there, but Legolas is not poised to shoot. Whenever you want to shoot this arrow, simply hit the "A" button, saving you much time "Overdrawing" it.
Running:
Sometimes, you just have to know when to run. Time like those are (take note): The Great Hall, Moria, The Dead Marshes *Frodo, Endless Stair, Lower Moria *Gandalf, Throughout Amon Hen *Frodo and whenever you encounter Hero creatures when you have almost no hit points.
