NOTE: These are the main Champions of Norrath: Realms of Everquest cheats that are usually applied by pressing down the right key combination. Please find the instructions on how to use these cheats below.
Level 20 with 999 Skill Points
Hold [L1] + [R2] + [Triangle] and hit [R3] during gameplay.
Note that this code will make your character level 20, with 75,000 coins (your total will decrease to that amount if it is currently higher) and 999 points to spend on your abilities. However, your four main stats (Strength, Intelligence, Dexterity, and Stamina) will not change and you will not get any points to spend on them. Also, the code works at any level below 20.
Duel Wield
This works for the elf and the barbarian. At the beginning when you are giving a name to your character hold: [L1] + [L2] + [R1] + [R2] + [L3] + [R3] + [Triangle] and press done.
NOTE: As their name suggests hints are not exactly Champions of Norrath: Realms of Everquest cheats, and are usually just simple (but very useful) tips on how you can unlock secret level, features, find hidden areas and such. Hopefully these will make playing Champions of Norrath: Realms of Everquest even more entertaining.
Item and Money Duplication
This is a common exploit for multi-character action
RPGs. You need at least one memory card and two analog
controllers for this trick to work (more advanced version
for Norrath require more cards, more controllers, and
the PS2 multitap) and is only valid for the Normal (non-Internet)
Campaign. The basic premise is that you can import your
own character, then dump the clone's equipment on the
ground so your original character can snatch them up
and sell (or use) them. The game tends to delete items
if they are left on the ground, so it's best for any
items you intend to transfer be on the original character
before you add or delete a cloned character. Warriors
and Rangers, because of their dual weapon ability, tend
to get stuck with one good weapon and one bad one (if
you're lucky). You can use this trick to quickly duplicate
a good weapon (the Iceflame for example) and have two
great weapons for dual wield! Another instance where
this exploit is helpful is when you find a miscellaneous
armor/weapon enchantment item (the items that give small
bonuses to weapons and armour when combined with them).
Before you use the item, go and save your game! You
can quickly duplicate the enchantment item and either
experiment with them, or you can have a "back-up" item
as you upgrade your equipment later in the game.
Massive Experience
This exploit requires at least two save files (1800+
KB on one card) or for safety reasons, two memory cards
with at least 900 KB free (you can take out one card
and force save/force load your game from the other card).
Again, this exploit is for the Normal (non-Internet)
Campaign only. When you arrive in the final act (Act
V: Plane of Air and Plane of Hate), you are tasked to
secure lost souls to free Fironia to help you battle
Innoruk. Once you free Fironia, you cannot enter the
Halls of Despair any more, so create a save game before
you rescue Fironia and you can return there any time
(import your characters into the campaign) and you can
keep earning experience and damn cool equipment. Note
that the Halls of Despair prohibits Gate Scrolls from
being used, so prepare to fight well to keep your items.
Consequently, once you rescue Fironia, you can use two
cards to save your progress after battling Innoruk for
massive experience. After rescuing Fironia, she tells
you to locate Planar Steel to fight Innoruk. Once you
locate Planar Steel, you warp into Innoruk's chamber,
so make a save before you do anything stupid. Yank out
the card after you save and stick in another card with
free space for a Norrath save game. Pick up all the
gear you want to carry with you into the next game (weapons
or armor you can't equip yet but would like to keep)
and locate the Planar Steel (it is not hard to do since
the Plane of Air is rather small and has no enemies).
Go fight Innoruk, make him barf out some good items
(pick them up as well) and save your completed campaign
on the second card. You can now load the campaign from
the first card (before you found the Planar Steel) and
import the characters from your completed campaign to
make Innoruk pave your way to higher experience levels.
As a bonus, you can also sell the extra gear you find.
Just remember to save before searching for Planar Steel
on card #1, pulling it out and using card #2 to save
the results of the battle after Innoruk.
Quick attacks
With a one-handed weapon equipped press the block and attack button simultaneously to do a quick strike.
Reach High Level Instantly
First of all, you're going to need a strong character to begin with. You have to reach the cloud boss on the Champion difficulty. Then, take you're high level character and start attacking the cloud giant until he has a sliver of health left (don't kill him or this trick won't work). Run back to the save point and save your game. Now plug in your second controller and create a new character by pressing R1 in the empy P2 slot. Create you're character and then import him into the game with the nearly-dead boss. Next, save you new character on a separate file and take you're first player controller and get rid of first player so you're left with just your level 1 character. Go to town and buy some fire potions and save again. After you saved, it's time for you to head over to the cloud boss--you should be able to kill him with 1 or 2 fire potions. After he dies you should notice that your character has instantly reached a high level. Note: This will only work on single player mode.
Defeating Bosses
When playing in single player mode, make a duplicate of yourself to distract the Boss. The boss will attack your copy and not your original character.
Defeating the final Boss
Shadow Knights, both male and female, are recommended. Taking him on hand to hand is not recommended, as he can kill you with a single blow from his hammer or any projectile. When the sequence is finished and the final fight begins, run away from him and conjure the following: a skeleton at a level 15 or higher, then the Disease Trail. If he follows you he will stop and take damage from the cloud then fight the skeleton. Then, run across the stage and remember where he was located. Shoot arrows at him. It does not take too long to defeat him this way. Make sure you make your way over to him quickly when he dies, or else you will lose whatever items or money you are rewarded.
Backup help from Skeleton
Level up a Dark Elf male or female to level 26 or higher. Along the way, level up the Summon Skeleton spell so that you can summon a level 20 Skeleton or higher. When you start a new character and go the field, use a scroll to warp to town. Save the game so that you will not lose any experience or items that you have collected. Then, warp back to the field. Press Start, go "Add/Remove Player", and select your character Then, press [Triangle] to import a character. Select the Dark Elf. Summon a Skeleton, then import your character back. The skeleton will fight alongside that character, giving you backup.
