LEGO the Hobbit all Collectibles in Story Mode/Free Play

 

http://i.imgur.com/30irLOv.png

 

The prequel to the legendary The Lord of The Rings trilogy is here, in LEGO style! The Hobbit takes place sixty years before the events of Frodo and The Fellowship. This story begins the telling of the life and adventures of Bilbo Baggins as seen in The Hobbit films, when he went on an adventure with the dwarfs to reclaim their legendary Lonely Mountain from the dragon Smaug. Enjoy the first two stories from The Hobbit trilogy with actual scenes from the first two films, with the unique LEGO twist.

 

In terms of trophies, you're looking at another typical LEGO trophy list full of collectibles. You'll need to purchase all characters and gather Red Bricks, just like every other LEGO game. Everything that you needed to collect ion previous LEGO games will be in this title. Your main focus is to purchase Red Bricks whenever you can, to activate their abilities from the "Extras" menu. Activating Red Bricks does NOT disable trophies.

 

IMPORTANT NOTES ON GAME FREEZES AND BUGS

 

There are certain areas in the game that can cause your game to crash. The most common bug is when you clear a section and advance onto the next one during a story level. Skipping a cutscene will cause the screen to turn black, and eventually crash. Watching the cutscene will also cause the game to lag in the next section until it eventually crashes. The best work around for this, is to choose the specific section from the story level rather than playing from the start. When you finish gathering all collectibles from the specific section, exit to Middle-earth to save your progress.

 

It's is also recommended to back up your save files regularly. Do not risk getting your save file corrupted by a game freeze, it is not worth losing your progress.

 

There's also a game breaking glitch right after you complete the "Barrels out of Bond" level for the first time. Be absolutely sure to enter Lake Town before saving and exiting the game. Doing so will lock you out of advancing further on, since the fish disappear.

Step 1: Complete the story without worrying about collectibles

 

In this step, you will complete the 16 story levels that this games has to offer. It's impossible to collect every collectible on your first Story playthrough, since most of the collectibles will require a specific character to do a certain task and they won't be available until Free Play. Completing the story will take you a little over 10 hours to complete. Every level has a story-related trophy to earn.

 

In this step, you will earn the following:

 

A city turned to ash

In a hole in the ground...

Slunk back from whence he came

... And be stone to you!

More of a letter-opener, really!

More than a thunderstorm!

That'll do it...

I believe the worst is behind us

What do you need?

Attercop! Attercop!

Escaped the dungeons of the King

The Mountain-king's return

He is summoning his servants

It's undoubtedly a trap

Time to earn your reward

Think furnace, with wings

Hardly burglar material

 

 

Step 2: Collect all collectibles from the story levels in Free Play

 

Once you've completed the story, you'll be able to play in "Free Play" mode. Free Play is just like Story mode, except that you can choose any character that you've unlocked throughout the game. This grants you the ability to get those collectibles that you weren't able to collect during the first step. In this step, also be sure to play the bonus level that earns you the Stone Giant Stomp trophy, as you'll earn an easy 1,000,000 studs in the process. This will help you purchase the x2 Red Brick just before you start the story levels in Free Play.

 

To get all collectibles in all 16 story levels in Free Play, you will need:

 

Sauron

Can be purchased for 70,000 studs. He is just South of Dol Guldur.

You will need him to break the black LEGOs.

 

Saruman

Can be purchased for 50,000 studs. He is located in Rivendell.

You will need him to break the mithril LEGOs.

 

Red Brick x2

To unlock the Red Brick x2, you will need the Schematic from the "Over Hill and Under Hill" level. The Schematic is located right behind you as you start the level. Once you forge it into a Mithril Flail, deliver it to the man just North of Hobbiton. It will be the red question mark on the map. He will only be available during the day, so be sure the change the day from a campfire. You will also need 500,000 studs to purchase the brick. Activating this will guarantee a Master Burglar title in every level.

 

Once you gather these things, you'll be able to collect everything from the 16 story levels.

 

In this step, you will want to replay every story level once again, but in Free Play. You will focus on collecting all of those collectibles that you couldn't reach in your first run. This includes Schematics, Attaining Master Burglar, Minikits, and Treasure items. Also bear in mind, that you do NOT need to complete the level from start to finish if you've collected everything from the prior level. You may save and quit and your progress will be saved.

 

In this step, you will earn the following:

 

Master Builder

Doilies and your mother's dishes

Our Long Forgotten Gold

That's why we need a burglar!

Stone Giant Stomp

 

Step 3: Clean up in Middle-earth

 

In this step, you will collect everything that's left in Middle-earth. This includes Red Bricks, Schematics, Mithril Bricks, and every quest left in Middle-earth. Some of these quests can only be accepted during a certain time of the day, so be sure to use a camp to change the time of day. Middle-earth is the "free roam" outside of the story levels. Your first focus should be to collect all of the "stud multiplier" Red Bricks, i.e. Red Brick x2, x4, x6, x8, and x10. These will stack and multiply your stud earnings by 3840! Not only will you earn The Unassessably Wealthy in the process, but it will also give you more than enough studs to purchase every character and any loot items that you need to forge.

 

The next task should be Schematics and Mithril Bricks. You will need Mithril Bricks to "forge" all 30 schematics at the Blacksmith in Bree. Not only will forging all 30 schematics earn you Objects of great beauty and Unequalled skill of the Dwarves, but it will also grant you the turn-ins for some of the quests in Middle-earth that will eventually lead to Ever ''The People's Champion''. This will save you 2 to 5 hours.

 

Also bear in mind, that you can purchase any kind of loot that is required for forging weapons from the "Dwarven Loot Dispenser", just North of Erebor (where you always spawn at, when you load up a save).

 

In this step, you will earn the following:

 

Ever ''The People's Champion''

The greed of Dwarves

Labouring in the villages of Men

Objects of great beauty

Unequalled skill of the Dwarves

The Unassessably Wealthy

To Be Continued...

Quite a merry gathering

 

Step 4: Clean up

 

In this final step, you will earn anything that's left for your platinum trophy. Most of these will be miscellaneous trophies and will take a bit of farming to earn, especially Wealth lies in the Earth. Most of the combat trophies can be easily earned in the "Azog The Defiler" story level during Free Play.

 

In this step, you will earn the following:

 

Wealth lies in the Earth

Bro's before Gold

Team Building

Conjurer of Cheap Tricks

Lord of the Prance

Dawn of the Mushroom King

Someone to share in an adventure

Beorn Again

Who is this horrid creature?

http://www.playstationtrophies.org/images/trophies/2663/56a.jpg Ever ''The People's Champion''

Complete all the quests in Middle-earth. (Single Player Only)

 

There are a ton of quests scattered around Middle-earth. Quests are the grey/red "?" on your map. These do not include the Mithril Bricks icons, only the question marks. Wait until you finish all of the story levels before you focus on completing most of the side quests, as you'll need certain characters or objects to meet the requirements for a lot of them. You'll need both Mithril bricks and schematics to forge all 30 weapons from the Blacksmith located in Bree. All of these weapons are needed for certain turn-ins to some of the quests in the game.

 

Note that some of the characters have more than one quest, so after you complete a quest, chances are that another quest will appear in the map. Bear in mind that some of these quests can only be completed during a certain time of day, so you'll have to camp to change the time of day to complete some of these quests.

 

Glitch Note: One of the quests is possibly glitched, but not in a bad way necessarily. In Lake Town, there will be a quest titled "Hide and Seek Once More". You will have to complete the "Hide and Seek" quest located in Bree beforehand, to unlock this quest. When you accept the quest, the Mithril Brick can glitch and spawn in front of you without having to even play the quest. If this happens, just play the quest and it will count towards the completion.

Forge all the Perfect Mithril Treasure Items. (Single Player Only)

 

There are 32 Mithril Treasure Items that you must forge "perfectly" to unlock this trophy. To forge a Mithril Treasure Item, you must first locate the corresponding Schematic. For the story/free play Schematics, please refer to the LEGO The Hobbit Collectible Guide. The Schematics in Middle-earth are depicted by a white envelope with a red seal. Once you have acquired a Schematic, you can get it forged at the Blacksmith shop located in Bree. You must complete the quest given by the Blacksmith's Wife outside of the shop before the Blacksmith will become available. The ability to forge items will be available after the quest is completed. To forge an item, walk up to the anvil and interact with it. Choose the Treasure Item you want to forge and press the corresponding buttons to forge it.

 

To forge an item perfectly, you must hit the correct button inside the inner circle, not the outer one. You will know when to hit any of the button prompts when any of the four buttons (, , , ) are highlighted yellow. When they are highlighted yellow, press the correct prompt. If for some reason you mess up a "perfect forge", you can redo the forge for free. You will also know when you've done a perfect forge as it will say either "Perfectly Forged" or "Forged", whenever you forge an item. To make this easier, you can turn on the Perfect Forging Red Brick, which will give you only one ring instead of two, and make this substantially easier.

To collect 10,000,000,000 studs, you will absolutely need to have every multiplier Red Brick activated to reach the requirement. This includes the x2, x4, x6, x8, and x10 bricks.

 

The location of the Red Brick Multiplayers are as follows:

 

 

— Studs x2

 

• 
  
• Hobbiton (Daytime only)
  
• None
  

— Studs x4

 

• 
  
• The High Pass
  
• None
  

— Studs x6

 

• 
  
• Moria
  
• None
  

– Studs x 8

 

• 
  
• Bree
  
• Requires unknown quest in Bree (Possibly a red brick quest)
  

– Studs x 10

 

• 
  
• Elven Forest
  
• Requires Staff and Nonsense quest completion
  

 

To view the locations for every Red Brick location, click on the time link. You will also need the Schematic for all of the multiplier Red Bricks.

 

Credit goes to PS4Trophies (Aka Wozamil) for the complete list and formatting.

 

After completing the game to 100%, you should have between 6-8 Billion studs. A quick and easy way to farm studs is to travel to Bree. In Bree, there will be two purple studs in the left/center of the town, that will give you about 100 million studs each time you grab them. You must have every multiplier brick activated. After you collect them, head into the Blacksmith shop to respawn the studs. When you head outside again, the studs will respawn. Rinse and repeat until you earn this trophy. It should take you under 10 minutes to get 2 billion studs with this method.

 

http://www.playstationtrophies.org/images/trophies/2663/197.jpg That's why we need a burglar!

Obtain all Master Burglar titles. (Single Player Only)

 

The Master Burglar titles are the same as LEGO Marvel's True Believer, LEGO Lord of the Rings' True Adventurer, or LEGO Star Wars' True Jedi. Each level has a stud requirement that you must achieve to reach Master Burglar for the level. You will most likely achieve Master Burglar in a number of levels, without the help of the red multiplier bricks, but if you're having trouble with any of them, turn on a few of the multipliers, and you will meet the requirements within seconds of starting the level.

 

The stud requirements for each level are as follows:

 

• The Greatest Kingdom in Middle-earth - 130,000 studs
  
• An Unexpected Party - 70,000 studs
  
• Azog the Defiler - 25,000 studs
  
• Roast Mutton - 50,000 studs
  
• The Troll Hoard - 65,000 studs
  
• Over Hill and Under Hill - 80,000 studs
  
• Goblin Town - 135,000 studs
  
• Out of the Frying Pan... - 40,000 studs
  
• Queer Lodgings - 30,000 studs
  
• Flies and Spiders - 85,000 studs
  
• Barrels out of Bond - 80,000 studs
  
• A Warm Welcome - 60,000 studs
  
• Looking for Proof - 85,000 studs
  
• The Necromancer - 30,000 studs
  
• On the Doorstep - 80,000 studs
  
• Inside Information - 100,000 studs
  

 

Please note that this trophy won't unlock when you meet the final requirement on the last Master Burglar that you earn. You must save & exit, or complete the level. The trophy will unlock at the scoreboard.

Complete the Bonus Level

 

The bonus level is located just South of Erebor. When looking at the map, it's right below the R of "Erebor". The icon is one of the stone giants from the "Over Hill and Under Hill" level.

 

The fastest route to reach the bonus level, is by traveling to Erebor from the eagle statue. When you travel to the area, follow the stair path onto the temple. You will then have to climb it. There will be snowmen LEGOs covering a ladder, so break them to climb the first ladder. In the second area, you will need to use Ori and his slingshot ability to build a bridge around the temple. You will also need to use Bilbo and his Ring ability to build the second ladder. Once you climb the temple, climb the zipline to get across to the bonus level.

 

This level is quite easy and should take you no less than 3 minutes to complete. You will take control of a stone giant and will have to earn 1,000,000 in studs. You will have 5 minutes to break anything in your path. Use to smash LEGOs with your hands, or stomp on LEGOs by moving around. Once you reach a score of 1,000,000, you will complete the level and the trophy will unlock. You will also get to keep the 1,000,000 studs that you've earned in the process.

Collect 99 of any loot

 

This trophy will come through natural play. You will have very little to spend your loot on as you play through the story, so you will end up with several hundred loot for several items. To collect loot, you will have to break objects throughout the game and collect them as you're progressing. This includes; vases, tables, lights, boulders, statues, etc. The earliest time that you can unlock this trophy is in the first or second level, just as long as you break everything in your path.

 

To earn this trophy, you will need to collect 99 of the same item. This includes:

 

• Copper
  
• Iron
  
• Silver
  
• Gold
  
• Ruby
  
• Sapphire
  
• Emerald
  
• Diamond
  
• Wood
  
• Leather
  
• Rope
  
• Stone
  
• Carrot
  
• Bread
  
• Meat
  
• Fish
  

Once you collect 99 of the same loot, the trophy will unlock. This trophy is cumulative, meaning that you do not have to have 99 of the same loot all at once.

 

To view your loot, hold , followed by going to your loot from the wheel.

Complete the mining game perfectly 50 times

 

You will be introduced to the mining mini game in the very first level "The Greatest Kingdom in Middle-Earth". In the mining game, you will have to stop an arrow in the designated spot, top center. If you stop it in the center on the first try, it will be considered a "perfect" mine. If you happen to miss, then the game gives you a wider target to hit. To complete the mining game, you must hit the middle target on the first try. Do this 50 times and the trophy will unlock.

 

One of the best areas in the game with mineral posts is in Weathertop. There area over 15 mineral posts around the area. Fast travel to Weathertop from the Eagle Statue and farm this 50 times. You can respawn the mineral posts by entering a new location.

Use 50 Buddy-Up attacks

 

A buddy-up attack is when two characters join together to do a “super” attack. To do a Buddy-Up attack, you will need to hold onto another fellow character by pressing when you're near your buddy. The description is slightly misleading, as you will need to kill an enemy with the "buddy-up" attack for it to count.

 

A great area to farm this trophy, would be during the "Battle of Azanulbizar" section in the "Azog the Defiler" story level in Free Play. Enemies will respawn, which makes it perfect to farm as many attacks until the trophy unlocks. Be sure to button mash while you're buddied up.

 

http://www.playstationtrophies.org/images/trophies/2663/15c.jpg Conjurer of Cheap Tricks

Use Gandalf's startle ability to dazzle 50 enemies

 

Gandalf's startle ability is the attack he does when you hold down . If you use the attack whenever you get the chance, you will get this naturally before you finish your story playthrough. However, you can farm this in less than a minute if you wish.

 

From story select, select the "Azog The Defiler" story level. From there, select the "The Battle of Azanulbizar" section. You will have to play this in Free Play in order to advance to the battle instantly, as well as having Gandalf in your group. As soon as you start the level, hold down until your move is fully charged, then release. Keep doing this on all the orcs until the trophy unlocks. You do not need to do this on 50 different enemies, just as long as you wait for them to get undazed again.

Equip yourself with Dazzle Wig, Mithril Rhythm Stick and Mithril Dance Boots.

 

To earn this trophy, you must wear these three items at the same time.

 

The Dazzle Wig is found in the "Flies and Spider Level", in "The Elves of Mirkwood" section. It's inside the secret passage in the very beginning of the section. You will need the Fire Cracker Bow or Saruman to break the Mithril LEGOs blocking the passageway. Once to enter the secret area, go to the very east of the area. There will be a jacuzzi with two skeletons inside. You will need to use Bilbo's fishing ability to fish the Dazzle Wig.

 

For the Mithril Rhythm Stick, you will first need the Schematic for it. The Schematic can be found in the lake in Rivendell. You will need a boat to reach the area. Follow the studs to find the route that leads to the Schematic. Once to reach the pilars, you will need the Fire Cracker bow or Saruman to break the chest. To forge the weapon, you will need to head to the Blacksmith in Bree.

 

The Dance Boots are also located in Rivendell. You will need to activate three switches to earn this Schematic. The first two switches are on top of the ropes that only elves can reach, and the final switch is at the very right of the cave. You will need to shoot arrows to make a swinghook. To forge the weapon, you will need to head to the Blacksmith in Bree.

 

Also bear in mind, that you can purchase any kind of loot that is required for forging weapons from the "Dwarven Loot Dispenser", just North of Erebor (where you always spawn at when you load up a save).

 

Once you have all three items, equip them onto any character from the "Treasure Trove" in your wheel menu, and the trophy will unlock.

 

http://www.playstationtrophies.org/images/trophies/2663/6a0.jpg Dawn of the Mushroom King

Equip Thorin with the Mithril Mushroom Crown

 

The Mithril Mushroom Crown is located in a cave just north of Bree, where the Blacksmith is located. Once inside the cave, you will have to go through various small LEGO hatches to reach the Schematic. There are eight hatches inside the cave. The hatch that you want to enter is the one with flowers around the hatch. This hatch will take you to the key. The hatch that leads towards the lock is just Northwest of the cave. LEGO boulders are blocking this hatch, so you will have you break them to enter it. Once you enter the hatch, unlock the lock with your key to collect the schematic.

 

Once you've collected the Schematic, travel back to the Blacksmith in Bree. It will cost you 5 Mithril bricks, 10 Square wood pieces, 20 fish, 15 chicken pieces, and 10 pieces of bread to Forge. Once you have forged it, equip it on Thorin's head and the trophy will unlock. Also note that you will have to use the regular Thorin to meet the requirements. Any other version of Thorin will NOT count, like "Thorin (Young") for instance.

Obtain 150,000 studs from Instruction Builds bonuses. (Single Player Only)

 

This trophy will come naturally through your Free Play run. To unlock this trophy, you will have to gather 150,000 studs in total from the Instruction Builds bonuses. Instruction Builds are when you build stuff like keys and items that will advance you into the game. You will also need several loot items for a build. If you complete an Instruction Build perfectly, you will obtain 20,000 studs, but will most likely finish each build with about 10,000 to 14,000 studs on average. You do NOT need to obtain 150,000 studs all at once.

 

http://www.playstationtrophies.org/images/trophies/2663/50f.jpg Someone to share in an adventure

Play a level in co-op

 

This description is quite misleading, as you have to complete the level for the trophy to count. The level must be completed in Story Mode, and you CANNOT do this in Free Play. "Queer Lodgings" and the "Greatest Kingdom in Middle-earth", are two of the shortest levels that can be completed. Completing the Bonus Level in co-op will also unlock you this trophy and it only takes 1-2 minutes to complete.

 

Also bear in mind, that you will need two controllers to unlock this trophy. There is no online play or anything of that nature, so because of this, we recommend that you complete any of the shortest levels that the story has to offer. If you're playing on the PS4, You can also use your Playstation Vita as a second controller using Remote Play to unlock this trophy.

Collect all Minikits. (Single Player Only)

 

There are a total of 160 Minikits in the game, 10 per level. A majority will be impossible to collect until your Free Play run, but some are still possible to collect during your first playthrough. The reason that you cannot collect every Minikit on your first playthrough, is because you won't have access to every character. Every character has certain special abilities that you will need to collect certain Minikits. Once you unlock Free Play, you'll be able to play as any character and unlock every Minikit in the game. Unlike most collectibles, every Minikit can be earned during the 16 story levels in free play mode.

 

For the locations of all 160 Minikits please refer to the LEGO The Hobbit Collectible Guide.

Use every Dwarf from Thorin's Company in a Buddy-Up attack

 

To earn this trophy, you must use a Buddy-Up attack with each of the 13 Dwarfs. You do not need to do different kinds of combinations to meet the requirements, just as long as you have done it at least once with each of the 13 Dwarfs. For example; using one character with 12 different buddies won't count. But using every character at least once while having the same buddy, will. Be absolutely sure that you've killed an enemy with the specific character as well. When you kill an enemy, they will flash red and hit the screen. Sometimes when they fall and break, they won't get killed by you, but your partner. This is why it's important to see them flash red.

 

The list of the Dwarfs that are needed are as follows:

 

1. Balin

2. Bifur

3. Bofur

4. Bombur

5. Dori

6. Dwalin

7. Fili

8. Gloin

9. Kili

10. Oin

11. Ori

12. Nori

13. Thorin

Thanks, appreciate it!

 

 

Looks like another great guide! I'll be using it once I get around to going for platinum on this game(I'm lazy...).

Also, are the 10B studs cumulative, or do you have to have 10B on you at any time?

 

10 billion is at one time.

[Aeirou]

Guide looks good I'll probably be using this to finish up my platinum. Nice work!

[fregoli1]

great guide

 

but i have a question, about the trophy Ever ''The People's Champion''

Complete all the quests in Middle-earth. (Single Player Only)

 

Glitch Note: One of the quests is possibly glitched, but not in a bad way necessarily. In Lake Town, there will be a quest titled "Hide and Seek Once More". You will have to complete the "Hide and Seek" quest located in Bree beforehand, to unlock this quest. When you accept the quest, the Mithril Brick can glitch and spawn in front of you without having to even play the quest. If this happens, just play the quest and it will count towards the completion.

 

i approach the quest to start it, got the brick by this way. and it save, i think (as usual).

after, i start looking for the three characters. found one.

after i took a boat, got stucked, no moves or change of character possible.

i had to close the game. my mistake was maybe to "save and quit" (by reflex).

now, i got my 100% completion, all 250 mithrill or 32 red brick or all treasures or all minikits or all characters. but i don't have this trophy.

what shall i do ?

wait for a patch ?

how can i do this quest again ? (no brick appears at the place, or anywhere else).

do i miss something ? is there an hidden quest (which doesn't show (at night) ?

can i miss the plat (if i don't start a fresh new game) ? really ?

shall i play story mode, freeplay mode, get all treasures/all bricks/all design, deliver all those, and play every kind of mini-games ?

is there any other solution ?

 

thanks for your response

now, i got my 100% completion, all 250 mithrill or 32 red brick or all treasures or all minikits or all characters. but i don't have this trophy.

what shall i do ?

wait for a patch ?

how can i do this quest again ? (no brick appears at the place, or anywhere else).

do i miss something ? is there an hidden quest (which doesn't show (at night) ?

can i miss the plat (if i don't start a fresh new game) ? really ?

shall i play story mode, freeplay mode, get all treasures/all bricks/all design, deliver all those, and play every kind of mini-games ?

is there any other solution ?

 

thanks for your response

 

OK so you got the brick before doing the quest then went to do the quest but you got stuck so saved and quit. Im guessing you can't restart the quest? Can you not continue the quest when you restart the game?

no, impossible : there's no brick. so no way to start the quest.

i only have to do the 10 000 000 000 studs. i'll go for the trophy (by the way, i use your method : blacksmith's out/the two purple studs/blacksmith's in, over and over. but, i lost two times more than a 1 000 000 000 studs, because the apply closed... and it doesn't save between.

 

to say about about this glitched quest, i don't see anything else to do by restarting a new fresh game. and do everything again. plat is at that prize, i guess.

the first time i see that on a lego game.

 

if someone has the kindness to make, maybe, a video, of what to do right, to avoid this problem, and have a full completion, that'll be great. and necessary, i suppose. because it souds like a trap.

 

nb: for the elf worker, i could'nt find him at night. and i went several times at the exact place. the good way is to change to day time, then return to night time. and here he is, at the exact spot. (i was looking for him in the trees, all arund, and it was just a matter of changing night to day to night again).

Looks great, a worthy successor to Lego LOTR . I'll be picking this up once there's a 100% official announcement on either the third movie being DLC or repackaged into a Complete Edition. If it's the latter, I'll wait, if it's the former, I'll pick it up soon-ish and just get the DLC when it's out. Seems like a game that could come to :psn+: too like LOTR!

 

One thing though, you say in the RM that it's a shorter run to than other LEGO games, but LOTR was only 25-30 hours maximum and you have 30-40 in the Overview. So which is it do you think? I know when you're writing a guide you tend to take longer on the game as you have to double-check things and note them down, so just wondering which is more accurate if you're a normal player following the guide?

 

Great job though, I particularly like the layout and structure of things

[fregoli1]

finally got the plat

 

the glitched quest "hide and seek once more" is not reported on the map.

i went at the exact spot, and the blue ring was there.

done the quest (and seeking for the third character was a torture, because i couldn't find him ) got him, got the trophy.

 

i went where the guide suggest you to go to make studs : bree.

but going in, and out of the blacksmith, make often the apply/game close.

and i lost billions like that... to avoid that, i turned around bree, and the purple studs reappears very quickly. and as there's a continious gaming, no apply closed. so made the last trophy (a bit longer to pop, like i was on the prehistoric ps3 times for a rophy to pop. but i got it. and the plat.

 

thanks so mucj for the guide, which helped me in many ways

I wrote that introduction before I platinumed the game guessing that it would be shorter. When I platinumed the game earlier, I changed the time to platinum. I didn't get around to fixing that one bit so I'll fix that now.

Yeah, I was actually going to recommend that to you. That's exactly what I did as well. It seems that this glitch is radioactive as well on the PS3 because it happened to me as well. You need to complete the quest despite getting the mithril brick before completing the quest. I'm glad that this is the solution for it

[fregoli1]

about the duration, it took me about 50 hours. but i didn't go for the freeplay first : i went for the free roam, speaking with friends on skype. guess with this slow rythm, it took me more time (like the double, maybe).

 

"hide and seek once more" : it's a glitch but not a bug.

to start the quest, you have to approach, and the brick comes to you...

by luck, quest is still there (but not marked on the general map) even if you quit the game (and save). so, no missable trophy, no game to fresh start. good news.

 

by the way, on PS3, there's an update : 1.01

kind of patch for those little problems ?

[mullinavat]

Great guide WarBear and Dougie, I will definitely be using this when I pick up this game. Be looking to pick up a Lego game at some stage so I may as well pick up one on my favourite universe

[Mudkipman98]

Hold up. Some of the trophies say single player only. Does that mean that if a friend of mine and I want to play together, then I can't earn those trophies?

[dagrendal]

A tip for the " wealth lies in the earth" trophy : the mithril pickaxe that gives you auto perfect mining does NOT count towards this trophy

Yes, that it correct.

Thanks for the tip! I'll add it to the guide.

are u sure warebear ? i have played almost every Lego game with my brother, including this one. and i can say 100% that the "Unequalled skill of the Dwarves" and "That's why we need a burglar! " were done while we were playing both at the same time.
