Generaly hints and tips
Cheats

Level one - White November:research ship
You start of with a lead pipe. The first few battles are simple, just keep attacking until they die. A useful first skill is magic bolt, although smash and aggresion are useful as well. When you are against two people then you attack the weakest first normally. When you face the zombie and another person I believe, you better attack him first as he causes DOT(damage over time)by acid. I spent my first bit of money on the shirt and boots. Then after I had a bit of armour I got the axe and sold the pipe.
Boss - ZPCI 3 man squad.
Kill the medic first, since he heals himself and other people, then kill the ZPCI assult. Lastly kill the leader. Use supression if needed and if you have it, heroic motivation if needed. This is not too hard and when you kill them, you get either the leader's sword or part of his armour, I believe because when I've killed them I get the leader's sword.

Level two - Ishiguro's rest:Ghost beach
If you are a assassins you should note that there is a secondary arms just for assassins in the shop. If the battles are too hard then do an easier training battle. A good combination is magic bolt, which weakens them a bit and then electro bolt. The enemies powers can be quite annoying a well but be patient. Partway through the battles you meet Veradux, he is a combat medic and a great help.
Boss - Sensei Ishiguro.
This guy is quite hard first time around. I recommend being at least lvl 8 and re-spec so you have CDG (coup de grace) so when he's on 250 health you can 1 hit kill him. Be warned though as he can cause DOT and stun you for a round. He also heals, which is why you want CDG. When he gets down to about 300hp stun him then use CDG. Sunder and wound him while getting him down hp but leave at least 35 focus for the CDG. When you kill him, you get a peice of his armour or his weapon.

Level three - Gadi'Kala:The great plains.
This is where it gets tricky. The shaman are hard, but remember you can kill them with CDG. I do not know what the totems do as I have always one hit killed the with CDG. When you get multiple shaman on you it is also quite hard. The armour you get is either mender, striker or breaker from the shaman or a club from the rock golems. With the shaman council, if you have a high enough CDG level you can damadge one a bit then kill it, I cannot remember excatly their health. Try to keep Veradux alive and kill the weaker ones first. Against the what I like to call semi-boss Baron, make sure you have level 3 heroic motivation s re-spec if needs be. Keep Veradux alive but Paladin is first in the priority list. Make sure Paladin is alive as he does 1500+ damage eacch round and is how you beat Baron. If you want, have Veradux on defensive.
Boss - Galiant the Paladin
What people generally say is have subversion, break and something that can damadge him a fair amount. What you are supposed to do is get him down to about 1000hp use break then subversion. If you have subversion then you must also have shatter bolt, I figure if you use that as well you can do a bot more damage as Veradux will probably heal him a bit if he attacks after you. He will then try to heal and promtly kill himself thanks to subversion. When you kill him like before you get a peice of his armour of his weapon. The actual story ends here but you can go on...

Level four - The infinity:Valley of illusions
In this area you have to face four extra bosses, where you can get the full team. I recommend you take Veradux and the assassin. When you train you get a medallion you can sell for 500 currency (euros I think). Or when you do special training which is once per day, you get and item you can sell for 2000 currency. After each boss you get and item you can sell for 4000 currency. I farmed Paladin and gave Veradux Paladin armour and the grand rifle(third shop down). And the assassin the assassin armour(second shop down)and the two swords you can get in the third shop down, murder and assassinationI believe they were called.
The first boss - Ignition.
Kill him like any other enemy but make sure you have elecro bolt so when he uses the ability that makes him heal 1,000hp each turn you can stop it. Also make sure you have one or more heroic motivations so when you or one of your allies have the buff on you that causes you to die, you can heal them.
The second boss - Dark Omen
Treat this guy like a normal enemy but when he uses the ability that makes him stronger attacking but weaker to attacks, stun him, using break or shatter bolt. If Veradux uses the acid attack he hits about 50,000! Also otherwise when he uses tht ability you hit around 10,000. Eventually after a while he will die.
Third boss - Doctor (can't remember second name)
You will probably not want your team mates on this one. when you take him down 10,000 hp he heals. So take him about 9,000 then use shatter bolt, atack, break, subversion. If he heals under subversion then he kills himself. This is the only way to do it as he has 1,000,000 health!
Final Boss - Sinjid's shadow
This is it, the last battle, the big one. Put you teammates back in and get ready. As soon as you start use disruption! Otherwise he uses an ability that uses all his focus and istantly kills one of you. If he gets back to 100 focus then use disruption again, if you can't use it then use break and shatter bolt for some time. Hopefully your teammates should take out the two shadow's shadow, if not then do it yourself. A little notice if you are battleing and all your teammates have died and sinjid's shadow gets 100 focus then use subversion on yourself. You'll end up being healed to full health. When you beat him, congratulations you've beat the whole game!

Story: Zombies, you've killed them, stabbed them, shot them and done all kinds of stuff to them but this time it's different. You wake up on a ship with louis the blind. You can't remember your name but louis calles you sonny. He tells you to get and weapen and you grab a lead pipe for a weapon and start to fight for your survival. When the ZPCI (zombie pest control inc.) comes, louis thinks that you are finally getting off the ship, but the ZPCI shoot him. After deafeating the men that attack you, you go to the shore, which turns out to be a resting place for ghosts. There you meet Veradux which turns out to be another zombie as well, except he's purple. Veradux has stolen some ZPCI equipment and you help him defeat some people after him. You then find Sensai Ishiguro, who tells you that he will 'break' you for disturbing his resting place. After you defeat him you get to the plains, which are all standing between you anc civilization. Unfortunatly for you the shaman who own the land do not want you to get past. While fighting you start getting headaches and Veradux does as well but a bit later. When you have defeated the council you see Galiant the Paladin and help him defeat the Baron. You then turn on Galiant because really Veradux told you to because he says that 'to them we're monsters'. When you defeat Galiant you finally get to civilization. But the story of sonny ends there for now.........

General tips:
1. Kill the one with the least hp first, although there are exceptions.
2. If you can one hit kill two people, then kill the one with higher hp.
3. I you can't beat an enemy then train!
4.Make sure you have the best equipment you can have before going against hard enemies. Especialy the final four bosses.
5. Know your class's strengths and weaknesses.
6. If you can't beat an enemy, try re-specing
If you have any more, post on, but don't spam

Cheats:
There is a cheat/glitch where you can drag a peice of armour or a weapon from your inventory, click on abilities, click on one of the plus signs where you can improve your stats like speed, strength etc and you get the stats of the armour added on to your actual stats. The item does dissapear though.
Another one I cannot confirm is the leveling up after a battle. I've heard it doesn't work, can someone please post deatails and whether it works or not. Any more cheats, glitches or hints are welcome.
Thankyou for reading, enjoy playing sonny =-)!!!
