How to unlock Gauntlet Mode

Finish the game using any difficulty setting

How to Unlock Extreme Mode

Finish the game using gauntlet mode

Quick Level Up

At the beginning of the game press down and hold R2 L1 Left d-pad triangle and Start to access the cheat menu. Then turn Invincibility on and use Level Warp to transport yourself to "the gauntlet" level. Advance as much as you possibly can without running out of time. This level has pretty good monsters to hack and slash and gain lots of experience and gold. But remember, before you run out of time Level Warp yourself again into the Tavern. Keep transporting between the Tavern and the gauntlet until you reach whatever level you want. Once you gain enough levels you could probably make it all the way to the end where an Iron Golem is waiting for you. If you kill it not only you receive tons of exp's but also you can pick up the Onix Sword for some massive damage.... and if you are running short of gold you can sell this sword for over 98,000 gold pieces. Enjoy.

Advice for during the game

Killing Enemies easily: When you are facing an extra hard enemy or boss in Balders gate there are several ways to kill them:

Run around the enemy as if you were trying to make them dizzy and keep hitting them.

If you use a shield then you can block then hit then block then hit etc. It takes time but you don't loose any life if you are fast enough.

Find a doorway and use a shield for the above method. This is useful when more than one enemy is in the next room.

Cheat Menu

To activate the cheat menu during gameplay you press together: R2 L1 left on d-pad and triangle. You then press start while holding them down. This lets you activate the cheats menu.

Extra Exp

To gain loads of exp you can keep warping to sleyvas then Ciraxis. keep killing them for good exp.

Good Class/Weapon/Armour Mixes

You need to think about what class does best.
Obviously the dwarf needs to do damage SO...
The best thing to do when you progress further is get him the biggest whooparse axe you can find and hack and hack and hack till they fall to bits or the dwarf collapses from over-exertion with a silly grin on his face.
It might be my personal opinion but honestly, don't get yourself worked up over getting Clangeddin's Strike or whatever its called, because it just hinders you. It needs a hammer to use and the hammer is so much slower in attack than an axe you'd wonder why they put it in in the first place. Trust me, whirlwind and bullrush are the way to go.

Likewise the sorceress needs a way to protect herself when it comes down to the dirty work.
Regardless of what people might say, she just can't hack it with a shiny dagger and a cone of cold spell. Not to say she needs to get up close but you need to realize that there will be plenty of times when she has to disembowel the attackers. As soon as you can get her a decent sword, a decent shield and maybe even a bow. Oh, and put as many points as you can spare into mordenkainen's sword because the little bloke will go far let me tell you.

Beat Last Boss

This is the way i beat the last boss (the nasty lady in the onyx tower). Two characters are required so get a mate and play together.
One should have the onyx sword to actually do some damage to her, and the other needs fairly good armor and a sense of loyalty to take a cap in the rear for you.
The fighter with the sword needs to run in and slash her then run away while the other diverts her to take the attack, this works best with the dwarf and the sorceress.
The sorceress doesn't have to run in and die for the dwarf, my friend and i managed to survive together by using the above technique. With the onyx sword this usually takes about five to six hits and your done.
One more thing, when she throws her sword, make sure you get that shield up fast because it homes in on you.

Defeating Eldrith

When facing Eldrith use the stairway as cover.
She will eventually come over to you at which time you run to the wall opposite of the stairs.
Most likely she will not follow you.
She will try to hit you with her static charge.
If you are all the way against the wall she can not hit you. Follow the path of her static charge and either shoot arrows or cast missile like spells at her. (it helps to know if you are hitting her so put the damage counter on in the options menu). The enemy's health bar will vanish when she is killed.
