Fable II Cheats & Tips

Okay so when u first start the game u wanna be gettin loads of gold to buy weapons and everything you want right? Well, as soon as u get to bowerstone market u will be feeling the urge to get some gold and spend as much as u like, so... follow this and u will get however much gold u want.
As soon as uve got to the gypsy camp in the first bit of the game, rent out your gypsy caravan and by the time your at bowerstone bridge u shud hav got someone inside it, you will earn about 7 gold every 5 mins but its all good cos what im about to tell u will help ya. You need to save up everything uve got, aka look out for what your dog keeps barking at in the guild cave and such, and by the time you get to the bridge u should hav 700 + gold.
I always have even since the first time playin the game, not noticing anything. So you should have ur gypsy caravan makin you money every 5 mins or so and once youve got this, this is were it all begins.
When you get to the bridge save and quit your game, exit to the xbox dashboard and then go to settings. change the time to 1 year in the future, this way you can just keep doing it without wasting time, putting the time to 2025 will waste time and will earn you no more gold than 1 year anyway, so theres no point. Go back into the game, the loading time is awesome because its only got 2 loading screens, it will take 4 mins maximum loading each time, and when you get into the game , wait for it all to load, and look above your characters head for the income mark, you should get about 700 gold for doin that one thing. If you buy another property on the bridge it will be about 1.2k to buy, and by then you should have about 1.4k, buy it, save and quit, xbox loading screen, 1 year ahead, go back in, 700g plus however much that makes, should be about 800 or so gold plus, so making double + the gold, buy another, save and quit, and so on, by the time you've done you would have bought all of bowerstone, if u do the save and quit time method over and over again over a period of about an hour, you will have about 1.2 million or so gold, and u will own all of bowerstone, so buy a steel longsword and a couple of xp potions, maybe a rifle, some clothes from the tailors, some dyes, and youve still got about 1.1 million waiting for you, you will gain about 5k + income every five mins, buy oakfield and such when you get there, and there you go, all the gold u ever need and if you follow the xp guide u will have all the xp and gold u need by the time you get to oakfield.

( but it will kinda ruin the game for ya, altho it doesent bug or take achievments away, you will be kinda bored with not struggling. )

This one is actually really easy, all you have to do is find the demon door in Oakfield, and propose to a woman that loves you. *IF SHE REJECTS YOU DON'T FREAK OUT YOU CAN KEEP TRYING* When you do (and she accepts) the demon door will open up, and you will have an amazing house (base price about 39,000$), and look in your windmill and there will be a chest, and in it a shiny new hammer one of the best in the game!

Many people marry someone in front of this demon door, but there is an easier way. If you blow a kiss torwards the demon door it will open.

To get a huge amount of $ you first need to have at least a few house/shops. now put them up to the maxium % now save and go to the dash board. Change the date tp foward a few years and when you play again you make a huge amount of cash.

ok so first you want to have some money before you do this i recomend
20000 gold. buy the jewlers and then buy everything their then sell the jewlers go to the gift shop in bowerstone and sell everything their that you bought fom the jewlersyou should get a profit as you got a discount at the jewlers as you owned it you can repeat this as many times as you like

Your wife loves you, and every time you prove your love she gives you things. i found this out if you marry a gypsy but take her to a different town (ex. oakfield, bloodstone, bowerstone) and she will give you special gifts. oak field gives concentrated will exp. potion, bloodstone gives you troll strength exp. potion, and bowerstone gives you a skill potion or a toy horse. i married alex, linda and bella. happy humping!!!

When playing the game for the first time, you may be prompted to update it with an online download. Do not accept this download, and continue to play the game. This trick must be done with an unpatched game. When you reach Oakfield and have at least 5,000 gold, buy the very first house you see once you enter the zone. It should have a wood chopping job nearby. Once you buy and own this house, sleep in the bed. You should now have a speed bonus. Press Start, and go into the "Skills" menu. Go to "Skill", and notice "Speed" has one star. Press Y, A(2) to remove experience from Speed into General experience, but the star will still remain. Keep doing this until you have enough for Rank 2, then Rank 3, and finally Rank 4. Then, do this until you have enough General experience to buy out all skills, strength, and will skills. You will now be maxed out on everything.

After your character has leveled up a few times, insert a second controller, and begin a Co-op mode game without using a second profile. Go to your henchman's abilities on controller two. Remove all of the abilities to return the experience to the pool. Quit the Co-op mode game. The extra experience from the pool will be transferred to your character. Repeat this as many times as desired.

It doesent stop achievements but it does kinda spoil the game for you.

Once you are allowed to buy the top level skill potions, Get as many as possible and go to the Crucible. Use java potions to get an EXP boost, and get up to X5 Excitement. you will get an insane EXP boost.
If you use a thunder's Strength potion you get 312500 Exp For one potion. repeat this for insanely easy EXP.

If you dont have xbox live then start a game buy some property and raise the rent(6 or 7 houses should do fine for the first time), and have the date on your xbox dash bourd to 2005. then play for a second, save, and go back to your dash and change the date to 2025. when you reload your game you get all the cash for rent over 20 years (you get rent every 5 minutes in-game). i owned everthing in teh gypsy camp the first time, second time i owned bowerstone, and so on.

Buy a couple of houses and rent them out. You should be earning about 300 gold every five minutes. Save and quit. Go to system settings, change the clock. Only change the year, add a year. *Do NOT connect to live or it will automatically change your clock* Skip forward a year, load your game. You should earn around 100,000 gold each time.

All you need for this is:
A very expensive item
A shopkeeper that hates you (completely)
Enough money to buy the shop that is owned by the person that hates you
Time

Procedure:
1) Sell the expensive item at the shop without owning it.
2) Buy the shop
3) Buy the item again
4) Sell the shop
5) Repeat from step 1

If u are having problems getting people to follow youu to be scarificed get prostitutes to follow you when they offer sex then instead take them to the temple of shadows
easy sacrifice lol

Temple of light:

To become harvest benefactor of the temple of light u must donate 2,500 gold.
to receive the legendary cleaver "The Rising Sun" you then must donate 10,000 gold at 12 pm.

Temple of shadows:

To receive the legendary sword "Maelstrom". You must first accumulate 2000 sacrificial points. you will get more points for sacrificing your spouse or temple of light monks. its also easier to take many people at once. after you reach 2000 points then sacrifice your spouse at 12 am.

Okay you need to have gotten to bloodstone to get this weapon.

once u got there go to the tower in brightwood, after you've protected garth from the spire guards and so on, so there should have been a statue on your left when you get to that portal on the tower but isnt anymore, and should be a space in the barrier now so go to it, vault down, and u should go to a place called archons knot, go through, there is a gargoyle and a silver key in here also, one behind you as soon as you get into archons knot so shoot that, carry on, first room, look to your right in the centre of the room should be one of those orb thingys that you shoot, forgot what there called, anyways shoot that, it opens the door, walk through to the next room which is a spiked room, theres an orb again to ur north west, shoot it, lights up some candles, walk across, now not all of them are un spiked so watch out for them, dont think ya can just walk to the exit lol <img src="http://i.neoseeker.com/d/icons/a_tongue.gif" border=0 vspace=2 alt="" /> so get past those, will take about a min at max, then you see an emotion statue, and a cage with another orb in it, leave it for the moment, go up the staires, and then click the button in the next spiked room , go back down, do a bloodlust roar expression to the statue, it bends over, face falls off, stuff like that, and then the orb is released from the cage, go back up the staires , there is also a silver key to your left, well left of the button in the next spiked room, but u cant get it until ur at the next bit, so dont forget that. anyways kick the orb, follow it, cos it shows u the way through the spikes, keep kicking it when it stops,then ur at the door, kick it once more, goes to the door, get the silver key, continue to the next room, it has a treasure chest with a cursed warrior augment in it, so get that, then go through the door to brightwood, then once it loads go to ur right, theres another chest, get it, it then has the Daichi in it, its supposed to be the best weapon in the game, it is to me aswell, and also wen you are next to the chest, there is a big lake below it, dive down, u will see a little island with a tomb or summat on it, go around to the side facing where u came from and got the daichi and then there will be a gargoyle, also on the other side away from the gargoyle on the same island there will be a door, go thru it, a chest with some jewels and such is in it, enjoy gaming <img src="http://i.neoseeker.com/d/icons/bigsmile.gif" border=0 vspace=2 alt="" />

Want all three end game achievements with one play through? All you have to do is play through one storyline and when you make your wish choose one, and as soon as it says that you have gotten the achievement immediately go back to your dashboard.(This may not work if you have gotten an update from xbox live, idk because I haven't gotten on live while playing)

--I award all the credit for finding this achievement to myself.

ok at the end of the game you get to pick money, family or , ppl well u can get your dog bak if you go to the demon door in rookridge and if your dog is dead the door will bring him back 4 you bt u cant go in the door or your dog will b traped n ther 4 ever..

Note: The dog will only be with you around the demon door. If you walk away from the demon door, the dog becomes unresponsive.

If you don't have Knothole island or you didn't pick family, there is a way to temporarily get your dog back. The only catch is that he only can be in Rookridge.

Go to the Rookridge Inn, and do the bartender job for any length of time. When you get done, your dog will be back, and you will have all of your dog functions back. But once you leave Rookridge, he will be gone. You can always do it again as long as the job is available however.

Wait until your character is at least somewhat leveled up. Plug in a second controller and begin a co-op game without using a second profile. Using the second controller, go to your henchman's abilities and discard all of them, returning the experience to the pool. Then quit out of the co-op game. You should find that all the "leftover" experience has been transfered to your hero. Repeat ad nauseum. *Note: Your co-op henchman will have the same abilities that you do, so the stronger the hero the more abilities there are to sell off and thus more experience.

you need at least one pysique for it to work

ok, buy a house in bowerstone market the house should be called the ogres palace go to the bed and sleep then discard your experiance for pysique you should keep the star and get some experiance do this as many times as you like

Want a lot of gold? Buy as many shops, houses, and other properties as you can and put all the homes for rent. If you haven't already set your 360's time |\|008, then do that first. Then set your time for a little in the future, go to your game, save, repeat. Just remember you can't get over 100 times your income (i.e. if you make 1000 gold in income per game-day, you can't get more than 100,000 gold in non-playing income). This is helpful for buying Castle Fairfax.

Note: Use of this code requires the console to be DISCONNECTED from Xbox Live. Also, this has not been tested for post-patch game.
----
This loophole uses the profits from owning houses and businesses, so you should have a reasonable amount of income coming from your ownerships.

The ownership profits use the console clock to determine your "offline" profits (i.e. when the console is turned off).

--From Console Settings on the Xbox 360 Dashboard, move the date forward by a few years.
--When you load your game, the profits from the years offline will be added to your gold.
--Save your game, return to the Dashboard and return the date to the current year.
--Load your game, then save your game (i.e. set the in game date back to the current year).
--Repeat the year forwarding as desired.

In the side quest "Treasure Island of Doom", the Lionhead Studios Lion can be found once you get to the treasure island. Look at the island in the middle of the lake and it is in the shape of the Studio's Lionhead logo.

To get the legendary blunderbuss gain entrance to Gile's farm cellar in Brightwood. At the end of the dungeon the weapon will be in a dig spot.
