Alternately, select "New Game" at the main menu, select one of the three default characters, then hold R1 + R2 + L1 + L2 until the game completes loading. Another method is to successfully complete the game under the extreme difficulty setting.

Move the Right Analog-stick and the flames surrounding "Loading" will also move.

The Gauntlet level:
Successfully complete the game under any difficulty setting.

Extreme mode:
Successfully complete The Gauntlet level to unlock the extreme difficulty setting.

Play as Drizzt:
Successfully complete the game under the extreme difficulty setting.

Alternately, choose to play The Gauntlet. You will start as Drizzt. Enable the "Invincibility" cheat and complete The Gauntlet within 15 minutes. .At the end where you face the Onyx Goldem, use the "Level warp" cheat to go to the Tavern. You can now play the game as Drizzt. Note: You cannot equip any other sword than the ones he has during The Gauntlet. Import a new character into the game and give him the Onyx Sword, since Drizzt cannot use it.

Hint: Start with Onyx Sword:
After you have completed the game once and have saved the game with the Onyx Sword in your possession (for example, with the human), start a new game with a new character (for example, the dwarf) and save. Import the human, drop the Onyx Sword and any other good items, then import the dwarf and pick them up. Note you can do this with any character and any weapon.

Hint: Duplicate items:
Save the game, then drop the items to be duplicated from the inventory of your current character. Press Start and choose to change your character. Import your character from the previously saved game. The game will bring in your character with all items in inventory at the time of your save, and allow you to collect the duplicates that are on the ground.

Save the game and use a Recall Potion to return to the Elfsong Tavern. Drop all your expensive items, then import your saved player. Pick your items up and sell them. You can do this as many times as needed, have to save each time before you import again or you will lose the gold you have made.

Hint: Easy items:
If you have a high level character with many good items that you would like a new character to have, start a new game with the new character. Then, load the character with all the items as the second player. Then, drop the desired items on the floor to allow the new character to pick them up. Equip everything and sell off things that are not needed. Then, save the game and restart the PlayStation2. Play a new game with a new character and load the other new character (that has all the items) as the main character.

Hint: Easy money:
This trick can be used at any point in the game. Save the game near a shop. Drop all your expensive items, then load your saved character to the same location. After the loading screen, pick up all your items and sell them. Do this again in the exact same order. You will get a lot of money.

Use the "Duplicate Items" trick with your most expensive item or weapon. Keep duplicating it until you cannot hold anymore. Sell the duplicates and buy the most expensive weapon you can afford. Duplicate these even more expensive weapons and sell them back. Keep doing this to build an unlimited amount of gold. It gets easier when you can afford the more expensive weapons.

Hint: Easy experience:
Note: You must constantly save your game in order to do this trick. At any time when you encounter a Boss, immediately save the game to a new file after defeating them. Press Start and load the game file that was saved immediately before you fought the Boss. After the game has loaded, press Start and go to "Characters". Import the character from the file that was saved when you defeated the Boss. You will now have a character with more experience, but will be able to fight the Boss again which results in lots of experience. Keep doing this every time you defeat the Boss to gain levels faster.

Hint: Resurrection in multi-player mode:
If a player dies during multi-player mode, have the surviving player go the previous save point. Walk in the light surrounding the save point and they will be brought back. The character will be resurrected with all items, but at half hit points.

Hint: Get to level 40 quickly:
Use the following trick to get a new character to level 40. You first must have a character saved under the extreme difficulty setting. Then, start a new game under the easy difficulty setting with a new character, (Dwarf, Human or Elf). As soon as the new game starts, save the character data at the tavern immediately. Then, exit the game and return to the main menu. Load up the character that is in extreme mode. Then, import the new character you just created over the your old extreme mode character. Enable the "Cheat mode" code and turn invincibility on and level warp to the Hall of Remembrance. Take the character downstairs to the Black Forge and kill the Onyx Golem (the monster with the Onyx Sword). Your character will level up to level 40. Note: This has only been tested in one player mode.
