Dear everybody,
Please take the time to read this before you read the walkthrough.. I would like to know
if I should add a little mini shop on the side containing everything in the shop you can
purchase at this time, and also a monetary range you should have when at certain points.
Please give me feedback on this walkthrough. Like what I should add or remove. Thanks.
Welcome back to my Walkthrough! Sorry for the big portion of time where I stopped, I am
still going to school and between homework, schooling, work, and friends, it's hard to sit
down and create a legitimate walkthrough like this. But here we go for part 4!
This is my 4th walkthrough for Swords and Sandals 2. It only Goes 1 boss per segment due
to my busy working schedule. You may notice whilst reading this, the things are more
obvious to understand because I got a complaint which said i'm "To General and not
specific enough. Make it more obvious" Well, if this isn't obvious enough, the complainer
is a dumb... -refraining from profanity-
Version 1.0: Came out 7/28/11 Made with just John The Butcher.
Version 1.1: Obsolete version. Added The Evil Ninja and some corrections in my grammar.
Version 1.2: Added the hardest tournament champ, The Son of Stylonius - made walkthrough a
little simpler to read and comprehend; And fixed grammar again, I see more and more
mistakes as I go on, oh no.
Version 1.3: Officially created Thursday, January 19th, 2012. Once again, edited grammar,
and added Marksman Dantus to the walkthrough! Also added a new theme to my walthrough, I
will put the boss name and the difficulty up when I approach one on the walkthrough. I.e:
======================================================================Boss: John Doe
Difficulty: 1-5
======================================================================
The difficulty rating works on a 1 to 5 scale, 1 being very easy and 5 being insanely
difficult.

Welcome to my walkthrough. I'm trying something no one else has yet to try, make a swords
and sandals 2 walkthrough. I will be doing them in Segments as for I am to lazy to do the
whole game in 1 walkthrough, plus I probably couldn't complete it in 1 day. Oh well. In
this walkthrough, I will be telling you what stats to put on to make your best chances of
completing this game. I will be showing you what armors to buy and when, and same going
for the weapons. Please notice I'm not putting the controls in because they are straight
forward and they tell you what they do ingame anyways. Shall we move on to the Stats?
======================================================================
2.0 Stats & What they do                                          S&W
======================================================================
This shows you each of the 8 stats and what they do.
Strength: Increases your Damage potential in battle. Also increases the distance at which
you shove your enemy. Also effects Height/Weight. Weapons available through Strength:
Maces and Axes.
Agility: Increases the distance of how far you can move or jump. Weapons available through
Agility: Swords and Bows.
Attack: Increases your chance to hit the enemy successfully. DOES NOT tie in with Strength
or Damage in ANY way.
Defence: Increases your chance to successfully block or dodge an attack. DOES NOT tie in
with Armor amounts.
Vitality: Increase overall HP amounts, and also increase HP recovered from resting.
Charisma: Increases chance to successfully taunt your opponent and decreases costs of
items in the shops.
Stamina: Increases overall stamina. Stamina is like Energy, when it hits 0 you can't do
anything next round, your forced to rest. Doing anything and everything will decrease
Stamina. Although, if your enemy hits you, you will recover a small portion of your
stamina.
Magicka: Lets you buy spells and potions ingame. Nothing else.
======================================================================
3.0 The Walkthrough                                              WLK
======================================================================
Alright lets get started. Click play and "Create New Character." Now your at your
character creation screen. You can name him what you like, and make him look however you
like, but I will tell you how to stat your character. First off, we get 9 stat points to
spend. Stat points just allow you to increase a certain stat by a certain amount, which in
this game, is and always will be 1. So what you need to do is put 2 points on Strength, 3
on Agility and 4 on Attack. So your characters current stats should be:
Strength: 3
Agility: 4
Attack: 5
Defence: 1
Vitality: 1
Charisma: 1
Stamina: 1
Magicka: 1
Now you click the check, and the game begins... You start with a cutscene filled with
useless info. You can click anywhere to skip it if you'd like. Now, we engage in our first
battle against the Fearful Prisoner. You can't lose this battle. All you have to do is
walk up to him and quick attack him and he dies. Your rewards are 2500 gold and 243 EXP.
You also have leveled up! You get 4 stat points per level. Put all 4 stat points on
Agility. So now your stats should be like this:
Strength: 3
Agility: 8
Attack: 5
Defence: 1
Vitality: 1
Charisma: 1
Stamina: 1
Magicka: 1
Once you do that, click the check. Its day 1 for you as a gladiator........
======================================================================
3.1 John The Butcher                                              JTB
======================================================================
Now your in town. Click on the word "Armory" in the bottom right corner. It brings you to
the Armor shop. There we need to buy 3 things. Brigand Boots, Peasant Shin Guards and
Brigand Greaves. This will give you enough Armor points to be able to be safe in battle
for awhile. Now, go to the Magic Shop and click "Enchant Weapon" Select the picture of the
Wraith, and right below it click the biggest Octagon there, then click the check. It costs
0 gold since the Rusty Knife isn't a weapon available ingame (I consider the prison area
not a part of the game, just a prelude.) Now in the top left corner, you will find "Arena"
Click it, once inside click duel. You can't click tournament just yet, you're to low of a
level. So click duel. This will bring you to a 1 on 1 fight against someone else. NO it's
NOT another person playing this game you're facing (you can tell because all of them suck
hehehe.) (Note: make sure your opponent has less than 20 Armor points, or else he might be
able to kill you. Also, don't face anyone with a Bow, they can kill you in 1-2 rounds
also, and they can be all the way across the field. Also note: These battles are to the
pain, which means once your armor is gone and you get hit again, you lose. All that
happens at this point is you lost about 5-10% of your gold depending on how much you have
and what level you are.) So, once you find a weak opponent click the check (To leave if
the selected enemy is to strong, click the door button not the check) and fight him the
same way you fought the Fearful Prisoner. After that battle, you will most likely level
up. Again, you get 4 stat points like you always will. Put all 4 on Agility. Your new stat
amounts should be:
Strength: 3
Agility: 12
Attack: 5
Defence: 1
Vitality: 1
Charisma: 1
Stamina: 1
Magicka: 1
You learned a new in-battle skill: Win the Crowd. If you infatuate the crowd more, the
more money you will receive for winning. I would highly recommend doing this in a
tournament, since you can outrun all but 2 champions at this point. Ok, now keep dueling
until your level 4. Then you cant duel anymore. You must enter a tournament first... Once
you level, again, you get 4 stat points. But, a new thing.. PUT ALL 4 ON ATTACK!! Now your
stats should look like this:
Strength: 3
Agility: 12
Attack: 9
Defence: 1
Vitality: 1
Charisma: 1
Stamina: 1
Magicka: 1
Click the check, now we go to business. First, stop at the weapons shop. If you can afford
the Shuriken, Buy it. If not, buy the best sword and/or bow you can afford. Now go to the
armor shop, buy the best shoulderguards or gauntlets (or both) you can get (most likely
peasant.) It's time to enter a tournament. If you lose in a tournament battle, the game is
over and you have to start over. The first 2 battles shouldn't be to difficult. The
champion is the one to worry about. His name is John The Butcher. If for whatever reason
you level, put the 4 points on vitality. Now your stats should be:
Strength: 3
Agility: 12
Attack: 9
Defence: 1
Vitality: 5
Charisma: 1
Stamina: 1
Magicka: 1
======================================================================
Boss: John the Butcher
Difficulty: 1
======================================================================
Now its time to fight John the Butcher. Not really too difficult if you know what your
doing. Start of using all your arrows using Bombard, or if you have a sword only, charge
him to put on some damage, then next round run off, keep repeating this process. Then once
your at your weapon, you can confront and attack him, when your HP gets low, jump away and
rest, and keep repeating this process until he eventually falls at the tip of your blade
(or arrow). Once you win, you will either get 10000 or 12000 gold, depending on a damage,
life lost/dealt, and attack and defense ratio. Please correct me if I'm wrong. When your
done, go to the armor shop. Buy the Brigand Breastplate, Brigand Shin Guards, Brigand
Greaves. And if you have enough, buy peasant/cutpurse/brigand
shoulderguards/helm/gauntlet. Now we start to get deeper into the game...
======================================================================
3.2 The Evil Ninja                                                TEN
======================================================================
Ok, do what you would normally do, which is duel. Except this time, you should be able to
handle ANY opponent. So, once you level, put all 4 on Agility. New Stats: (im going to
abbreviate now to save some time.)
Str: 3
Agi: 16
Atk: 9
Def: 1
Vit: 5
Cha: 1
Sta: 1
Mag: 1
Now you know what to do, get to level 7 now. I dont remember if it's level 6 or 7 that you
get another in battle move. It's called Psyche Up (It's a bad move I wouldn't recommend
using it at all.) Anyways, Duel till you get level 7. This time, put 2 points on Agility
and 2 on Attack. New Stats:
Str: 3
Agi: 18
Atk: 11
Def: 1
Vit: 5
Cha: 1
Sta: 1
Mag: 1
Ok, now its time to go for the 2nd tournament. But first, we need to stop in the weapon
and armor shops. In the weapon shop, buy the bow that requires 18 agility to wield. (I
forgot them namely.) Then after that buy the best sword you can (try to have some money
left like atleast 2,000.) Now, go to the armory. Buy the veteran boots, shins, and
greaves. And if you have enough for veteran breastplate/shoulder/gauntlets, by all means,
BUY EM! This next arena champion is a little harder than John the Butcher. His name is the
Evil Ninja. And guess what bow he has? That's right, the shuriken, and he has a really
junky sword. So, deal with the 3 gladiators before him. If you level (which you most
likely won't) put 2 on Agility and 2 on Attack. New Stats:
Str: 3
Agi: 20
Atk: 13
Def: 1
Vit: 5
Cha: 1
Sta: 1
Mag: 1
======================================================================
Boss: The Evil Ninja
Difficulty: 1/1.5
======================================================================
Now for the Evil Ninja. It's time to fight bow VS. bow. He maybe 3% of the time can kill
you, he's one of the easiest champion in my opinion. But enough said. Do the same thing
you did to John The Butcher, bombard his head, then do mostly normal attacks. He has alot
of armor and decent HP. Eventually he will fall. You will win either 17500 gold, 20000
gold or 22500 gold. Afterwards, go to the armor shop, buy veteran everything (you should
have enough for them all, if you don't, skip the shield since we will be doing alot of
bowing, and a shield won't help us at all with a bow equipped.)
=========================
3.3 Son of Stylonius
=========================
Alright! Lets get the hardest part of the game OVER with. Like before, we duel, but this
time, the tournament is at level 9, so we only get one level in. It will start taking
longer and longer to level, so after this tournament your going to need to be patient.
Once you get level 9, put all but one point on attack, put the other on Agility. New
stats:
Str: 3
Agi: 21
Atk: 16
Def: 1
Vit: 5
Cha: 1
Sta: 1
Mag: 1
Go to the Weapon's Shoppe. Buy the 21 Agility Bow AND Sword. Then go to Armory (Only go
here if you don't have something in the Veteran Set.) Then, go to the arena, and lets get
this hardest tournament over with. Get rid of the 4 noobs who are in your way. It's time
to fight the Son of Stylonius. This guy can spam hits almost up to 100 damage, which is
33% of your armor, and about 50% of your health. If you level within the tournament, but 2
on attack and 2 on Vitality. New stats:
Str: 3
Agi: 21
Atk: 18
Def: 1
Vit: 7
Cha: 1
Sta: 1
Mag: 1
======================================================================
Boss: Son of Stylonius
Difficuly: 4.5/5
======================================================================
Do the exact same thing as you did in the first 2 tournaments. Bombard him with your
arrows, then charge him. BUT!!!! Once you hit him, BACK OFF! He likes to waste 2 turns
charging for Psyche Up. Just keep healed, you will most likely be fine. When I first
started this game, this guy always killed me. But then I found out this strategy, and I
killed him really easily. Once he falls, you get something like 27500-30000 gold. (Don't
remember) So, you have nothing to buy right now.
======================================================================
1.3 Part 4: Marksman Dantus                                      MKD
======================================================================
Welcome back! Now it is time to get into the part of the game that really requires alot of
patience. We are now heading for the 4th boss of the game. Start off like you usually
would, by dueling against opponents. I forgot to add this near the beginning, but about
now or a little earlier, you will start getting random events, like someones cat is stuck
in a tree for example, and if you do these things successfully, or outsmart someone or
help someone, etc. it will provide a few stat bonuses or possibly alot of gold. (I was
saving for Champion Gear and won 30,000,000 gold for winning a jester game.) So be careful
of those. They can help you, or hurt you. So, go duel with your character and own some
noobs, and then you will eventually reach level 10 if you didn't already. I put the stat
ups in the 3rd portion of this walkthrough. So, keep going until you get level 11. Add all
4 to Agility. New Stats:
Str: 3
Agi: 25
Atk: 18
Def: 1
Vit: 7
Cha: 1
Sta: 1
Mag: 1
Now keep going until you eventually reach level 12. Add 2 on Agility and 2 on Attack. Your
new stats should be like this:
Str: 3
Agi: 27
Atk: 20
Def: 1
Vit: 7
Cha: 1
Sta: 1
Mag: 1
Ok, now make a quick stop to the Armory, time for new armor. Buy the best armor you can
afford (which should be Retarius or something like that. Please tell me what it is.) And
then go to the store and buy the sword and bow that require 27 Agility. Now, before I go
on, I want to mention something about duels. In a duel, the game randomly generates a
character which can have any weapon, and any AVAILABLE armor (so it could have a daikatana
but it can't have armor you don't.) This also goes for potions and magic, he could have
molten death or something. So be careful when fighting, they sometimes randomly generate
an opponent that is WAY to strong for you. It happens alot. But enough of that, lets get
into Tournament 4! This tournament has 5 randomly generated characters, so slash your way
through them and get to the boss.
======================================================================Boss: Marksman
Dantus
Difficuly: 2
======================================================================
This boss is a pain. He has a level 3 enchanted bow that can do upside 100 damage. Your
bow can easily compete with that, but not your health. And, unlike the evil ninja, he has
a pretty good sword. Just bombard him with your 10 arrows (forgot to add that you get a
bigger arrow quiver 9 levels.) Then charge in, attack him, and if your low on health (if
he can actually dig through your armor) fall back and rest, then go back up and defeat
him. You will get about 30,000 gold upon completion of this Tournament. If you have not
already, get the rest of the Retarius set. Then that's it until next time. Until then, see
you later!
