Hint: Hidden Experience Runes

When playing "Minas Tirith - Top of the Wall" and you have defeated all of the siege towers--when you don't have to worry about the ladders anymore--go towards the stairway to leave. But instead of going down the stairs, go to your left (characters' right) up the tower and there will be about seven experience runes. They will give you 1,000 experience points each.

Hint: Shoot Faster

Get out your ranged weapon, press and hold Y, R, and A at the same time, and then you should fire faster.
