If you use the cheat codes does it effect any of the other achievements? E.g: the 100% one?

I am less than 50 bricks away from completing it, I'll let you know. I suspect the codes won't affect it since they haven't in previous Lego games.

Confirmed that you can still 100% with the cheat codes. Finished up the game tonight.

Thumbs up on the solution! I would add how many mithril bricks it takes to make each design, if you feel like it!

Would be good to know how to get #1-19 if you don't want to input the codes.

I used the codes but if you do not want to, I will add the ones that I find in game anyhow.

#19 is in Weathertop. There is a cave that needs to have its entrance exploded via the Berserker or Mithril Fireworks. It is in the south of Weathertop. Look on your map at the mountains/hills. Go through the cave and you will find a man on your left. He wants an Ice Bow. Give him that and then you can pay 100k for the red brick for heart regeneration.

I'm not going to downvote, but really? The first (and only) guide for this achievement has cheat codes as the solution? It says something about achievements (and those that relentlessly pursue them), I think. Whatever happened to playing the game?

Yeah, I get it. Collecting red bricks = cheats so therefore cheat codes are justified. Logic fail.

....Isn't finding out exactly where the red bricks are with a guide instead of finding them yourself in of itself cheating?

This is an achievement site. Many other solutions include game save glitches, bug abuse, and many other forms of illegitimate achievement popping. If you don't like it, earn the achievement yourself and create a comprehensive guide. I don't want to use cheats either, but the fact is, getting red bricks IS getting cheats. Good solution, I will up vote when I earn the chievo.

Personally, I think in two categories: There is soft cheating (most infos on this page/ "how-to-guides") and there is hard cheating (typing in codes to facilitate the game). smile

Still, I would like a description of the place where this damn third brick in Bree is located. There were only two on my map. Bugged?

This achievement can take awhile to get.

2 (50,000) Disguises
-Craft a Mithril Cluster Bow for a man in Edoras. Before you can get the quest, you will need to put out the fire in front of his door. To do this, go to the left of his house and plant the seedling that you find there. Now use this to bounce up onto his roof where you can walk along a plank to find some water. Fill your bucket and head down to put the fire out.

5 (250,000) X2
-Craft Mithril Gloves for the lady in Rivendell. Getting to this woman can be a pain. Head towards the question mark in the northern part of Rivendell and you will find a pool of water. Head around the pool, to the right, until you see some leaves int he water. Jump onto the leaves and use these to get to a bouncing lil pad. Use the lily pad to jump up and reach the grab rail.

There are 20 of these, which are obtained by completing the Fetch Quests that require you to bring a mithril item to the quest-giver. These are obtained by finding the Blacksmith Design Recipes throughout the game and crafting the mithril items at the Blacksmith in Bree.

Fortunately, 15 of the 20 Red Bricks can be unlocked by inputting a code by pausing the game, selecting “Extras” and then “Enter Code”. These do not disable trophies.

The 15 cheats and respective cheat codes are as follows:
 

  • 8-Bit Music (GD35HC)
  • Action Assist (T1JM4R)
  • Attract Studs (C7FJ7B)
  • Boss Disguises (F3H14H)
  • Character Studs (PR3V4K)
  • Disguises (MX26RJ)
  • Fall Rescue (WS68P2)
  • Fast Build (A2LU58)
  • Minikit Chest Finder (A24TVJ)
  • Mithril Brick Finder (B72D7E)
  • Mithril Hearts (2MCRDN)
  • Poo Studs (D49TXY)
  • Quest Finder (EY4K32)
  • Regenerate Hearts (H5L6N6)
  • Studs x2 (1F5YH2)

Unfortunately, the 5 most useful Red Bricks are not available to unlock using this method. You will need to find these by completing the required Fetch Quests. These are Invincibility, Studs x4, x6, x8 and x10. These cost 500,000, 1 million, 4 million, 8 million and 10 million studs respectively.

Also note that even if you use these cheats, you must still complete the Fetch Quests in order to obtain 100%. The Red Brick, even if already unlocked, will become available to buy when you have completed the appropriate quest, but it does not need to be purchased.

There are 20 Red Bricks to find and purchase, and they are unlocked to buy after completing the 20 Fetch Quests related to forging specific Mithril items. You may buy them all, or use cheats to unlock them, either way, the achievement will still unlock.
