When you get to the statue, it will as if you are playing and air guitar.

Angry Ghost miniquest

At the statue near Oakfield town a ghost will be sobbing. He will ask you to help get revenge on a girl who dumped him. You will recieve a rejection note from him and you will go to Bowerstone Market to the pub where she works as a Barmaid. Impress her with some heroic pose emotions and she will tell you everything. Apparantly she left because she felt they were both too young and she feels terrible that the guy killed himself over her leaving. At this point you can give her the note (evil option) or marry her (good option). If you give her the Evil note then she will run off. Then you go back to the guy and he will feel remorseful for it, then she shows up as a ghost and figures everything out and is mad at the both of you (no real win here). I suggest marrying her.

Bigamy

Being a bigamist is hard work if you want your families to like you. You must show up often at each house and set up a decent home budget to keep them happy. I recomend one family with a high budget, that way the family will get you gifts often and you don't have to travel so much. I suggest marrying the girl from the "Angry Ghost" quest. You get purity points for taking the good option (giving her the rejection letter is the bad option) and if you keep her happy then you will gain purity points as well.

Broken storyline

Note: The following glitch has been fixed with an online patch. However, it is still possible to encounter this problem during game play with an unpatched game. Go to Oakfield to speak to the Abbot. He will tell you he wants someone who is more famous. Do not leave the Temple or skip the conversation until the Abbot finishes talking. If you do, the Abbot will not give you the information to start the quest "A Bridge Too Far", and the person you need to meet to start the quest will not appear. The Abbot will no longer give you any information. If this happens in an unpatched game, you must restart your game. There is no more story progression from this point on if you encountered this glitch.

Confused dog

Go to Rookridge after purchasing or finding the rubber ball item and after defeating Dash. Stand in the center of the bridge facing the waterfall and throw the rubber ball as far as possible. If it lands in the waterfall slightly to the right, it will appear under the bridge out of view. Your dog will then become confused and will begin running in circles trying to get to it. To make your dog stop, punish or praise him. Note: Throwing another rubber ball will not work, as he will not see it.

Crucible revisited

When you return to the Crucible ten years later (after the Tattered Spire), it is best to have some five star skills. Included in these skills should be Slow Time and Chaos. You should also have a five star Fireball attack so that you can wipe out most enemies around you through most of the rounds and get Perfect Rounds. When you get to the eighth and final round against the Rock Troll, wait for the Spores to appear then dodge the rocks and cast five star Slow Time. Run up to the troll, cast five star Chaos, then take out your fastest and most powerful ranged gun. Shoot the Spores until they are all gone before Chaos wears off. Alternately, cast a five star Lightning or Fire attack (non-enemy targeting) and hope that it will destroy all the Spores instantly. Otherwise, repeat the process until the Troll is dead in under one minute fifty seconds.

Easy "Cliff Diver" achievement

When you first arrive in Rookridge and reach the broken bridge, jump when prompted to and immediately hold LT to look at the three bandits. When you think you are just about to hit the water, release LT. If timed correctly, you will unlock the "Cliff Diver" achievement.

Easy end game achievements

At the end of the game when you are back in the Spire to get your revenge against Lucien, make sure that you save and continue the game. Once done, face and kill Lucien. Select one of the three choices Theresea presents you with. After you unlock the achievement, immediately reset and restart the Xbox 360. Choose to continue the game to get the next achievement until all three have been selected and unlocked. You can reset the Xbox 360 a fourth time to select the choice you really wanted to begin with afterwards.

Easy Experience

An easy and not-so-cheap way to raise lots of experience is to simply donate money to the Temple of Light. Donations of 1,000 or 5,000 gold will earn you general experience for each donation. Do this over and over again to max out your abilities. It will just cost lots of cash!

Easy experience points

Purchase an Experience Potion from a vendor at either Browerstone or Westcliff. Find some enemies to battle. Normally when you dispatch the enemies and absorb their orbs, you will get a message at the top stating "Excellent Fight! 150% XP", or something similar. After you defeat the enemies, and before you absorb the orbs, use the Experience Potion. The experience point bonus percentage will also apply to the potion, meaning you could turn 62,500 experience points and earn up to three times that amount. You can also buy lots of potions at the Crucible and use them in several of the fights (for example, the first bandit fight).

Easy love

An easy and fast way to get people in love with you, male and or female, is to buy the "Noble" clothes from the tailors. Put on all the clothing and almost everyone will be in love with you. The clothes will increase their attraction to you by a large amount. This is useful for the "Till Death Do Us Part" quest because the "lover" should be instantly in love with you. You should not have to worry about making them love you. It does not look the best on your character, but everyone will love you.

Easy Money

Here’s a great way to make lots of money. First, purchase the weapons stall in Bowerstone Old Town. Purchase weapons at your own shop, which should be discounted for you by 39%, and then go to the blacksmith at Bowerstone Market and sell the goods to him for a hefty profit (the profit margin will vary depending on how the economy is doing, the scarcity of the goods, et cetera). As long as you restock your shop every few days, you can do this indefinitely for major profits.

End achievement glitch

When you get to the spire and are offered your wish (after all the dialog of course) select a wish and wait for your achievement to show up and then turn off your consul. Then go threw it again another 2 times. Then you will have the achievements. But you can only get 1 reward. So choose wisely on which one you want. Greed - 1 million gold (300 evil) , Family- You get your dog back, and sacrifice - you bring back all the people that died in the spire (300 good)

Even More Easy Experience

Here’s yet another technique for infinite experience. Simply create and load up a co-op partner character. This will start this new character with identical abilities to your character that already exists. Using this second character, unlearn all of his or her abilities, which will generate the experience used on those abilities. Transfer the experience over to your main character. Repeat this process as much as you want!

Fable 2 inf, EXP even after patch

Go to oak field then buy the farm were you work as a wood cutter. Then sleep in the bed and you get a higher speed skill. Sell it over and over and you will still have it. I did this with my main character and got every thing all the way up it rocks. This may sound like a edited version of some other cheats but this cheat acualy works even after the patch. Cool huh?

Fix character frozen in place

To fix this glitch, have another player join in Co-op mode. Have the other player turn safety off and start attacking either villagers or guards next to player one's frozen character. The guard will then hit player one, which unfreezes the character and allows player one to move freely again.

Game Logo Easter Egg

When you are in blood stone, on the east side there is a hooker. When you are near this hooker she turns green, indicating that you can purchase from her. When you push A, a menu comes up and you can buy the lionhead game logo and show it off using the trophy command.

Gargoyle locations

Getting cheap houses

Head start for second character

Use the following trick to get a second character a good start in the game.

1. Have a character that is far in the game, is able to purchase, and have a large income of approximately 10,000 or more gold every five minutes. Also have him or her to the point of being able to purchase the ultimate level potions from the potion vendor in Bowerstone (for example, Thunder Strength, etc.).
2. Purchase multiple numbers of the different potions (about five of each recommended), then save the game. Allow at least six hours of real time to elapse.
3. Resume the game and load your advanced character. Immediately after he or she has finished loading but before they get all the gold that has been building up while the game was off, press Start controller two to bring in a playable henchman. Set it up so that it is connected to the file of the character you want to boost.
4. Adjust the output so that the henchmen gets all the gold and all the experience, then play as usual. All the money that you have collected since the last time you played goes directly to your henchmen (the character you want to build up).
5. Go into your potions. Use all of the potions that you have for experience and all the experience will go to the second character.
6. After you have finished taking care of that, have the second player quit so that the game saves all the experience points and gold to the character to be boosted. If desired you can also purchase abilities. Then, quit that second character.
7. This is the most important step. For the first player, quit without saving the game.
8. When the title screen appears, go back to the advanced character again. He or she will still have all the gold and potions. Repeat steps 3 through 7 as many times as desired.

Hint

If you have a henchmen and he/she is almost dead get to a safe point and log them out and them back in so he will respawn with full health.

How to get a pretty good "light" cleaver

Okay this is how to get the Rising Dawn cleaver. First you have to be able to donate to the Temple of Light then donate at least 1,000 gold, the preist by the fountain will say that you have donated enough to become the harvest benefactor and must donate "when the holy sun is at it's zenith" in plain english donate at noon, this donation has to be generous. 10,000 is the target donation and it has to be at one time. This cleaver does 68 damage it's augment does extra damage to banshees and shadows.

HP Lovecraft reference

In the side quest "The Summoners", two brothers read from the Necronomicon and summon the dead. The Necronomicon originally appears in the works of HP Lovecraft, a master of horror fiction.

Infinite Experience *Pre-Patch*

Once you get into Bowerstone Market walk to Town Square. Once there you will find a potion shopkeeper on the left hand side. Walk around the right side of the buildings there and down an alley to find a house known as Monster Manor. Sleep in this manor to gain its benefit (+1 star of Physique) Once you gain this benefit, go to your abilities list, select physique and hit Y to unlearn it. You will find that the bonus star from the house does not disappear, but the experience is given to you anyway. You can repeat this process over and over, the more stars you have in physique the more exp you get each time. This experience is general experience and can be applied to any skills.

Infinite Experience II

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.

Lionhead Studios Easter Egg

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.

Lots of Money

When you buy a property you have the option of renting it out and earning money every five minutes. That five minutes is real-time, which means you don’t even have to be playing the game in order for the time to pass. Better yet, you can set the clock of your 360 system forward and reap the benefits—try setting the system’s clock forward a year and the next time you turn on the game you’ll earn rent for a full, real-time year.

According to user Dargus, this glitch might not work. The game seems to set a cap of how much gold can be earned offline, and once five-hundred minutes has passed, your money growth will permanently stunt. Keep this in mind when attempting this technique.

Missing spouse

When returning from the Tattered Spire, if you go to see your husband or wife before going to Hammer your spouse will no longer appear in your marital home, but still take his or her daily allowance. To fix this, invest all or as much of your gold as possible into real estate (so you can get it back), leaving you with as little as possible. Keep sleeping (works best at seven days) until you are broke, and your spouse is unhappy is going to leave you. Return to your marital home and your spouse should have reappeared.

Money Exploit

After buying a property, rent it out to earn cash every five minutes. This is real time so you still can earn payments while you're not playing the game.

You can also adjust your clock and reap the rewards. Try adjusting your clock for a year and have your earnings multiplied by 105,190 times!

More Easy Experience

Here’s another technique for seemingly infinite experience (as long as you have the patience to do it). Head to Bowerstone Market, and go to the Town Square where you’ll find a potion shopkeeper on the left side. Walk around the right side of the building there, and down an adjacent alley, where you’ll find a house known as Monster Manor. Sleep in this manor and you’ll gain its benefit (+1 Star of Physique). Once you gain this benefit, head to your abilities list and select physique, dropping the point learned by pressing the Y button.

When you do this, you’ll find that the bonus star from the house does not disappear, and you still keep the experience you earned from getting it. You can then go into the Monster Manor again, and repeat this process over and over again for small experience gains each time.

More, More Money

Here’s another way to make easy money. Purchase as many weapons as you can in Bowerstone and Old Town (preferably places you don’t own), and sell them to the traders in Fairfax Garden. Your profit margin should be somewhere in the neighborhood of 30% when you do this, but can go as high as 70% if you own the stores. Furthermore, doing this will increase the overall value of your properties! So it’s a win-win situation!

Permanent Shadow Creature villagers

Note:This may require a few attempts. Take some villagers to the Temple Of Shadows to sacrifice them. After you have pulled the lever, quickly turn off Safety mode. If you are lucky, you will get Shadow Creature as a sacrifice. Quickly kill the villagers before they disappear. They will remain there as Shadow Creatures and not disappear. Their body will continue to smoke as a Shadow Creature.

Restored beauty

After successfully completing the game your scars will disappear and your eyes will return. In doing so you may now donate a large sum of gold to the Temple Of Light to gain youth. The larger the sum of gold, the younger you will become (with the exception of childhood). You may now also buy Castle Fairfax in the Fairfax Garden outside of Bowerstone. By doing the Fairfax castle quest after purchasing the castle itself you will find a bed. Resting in it will make your character healthier and increase his or her attractiveness, ultimately leading to the full restoration of your character's youth and beauty.

Sculpture plinth locations

Find and activate the following sculpture plinths, then go to the Oakvale sculptor to have them created to gain Renown.

Oakfield: Near the Sandgoose Inn.
Fairfax Castle: On the grounds in the circular water feature.
Brightwood: North part of map next to the gate and ruined castle.

Unlimited experience

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. Notice that you now have a speed bonus. Press Start and go into your "Skills" menu. Go to "Skill" and notice "Speed" has one Star. Press Y, A(2) and notice that you have removed experience from Speed into General experience, but the star remains. Keep doing this until you have enough for Rank 2, then Rank 3, and finally Rank 4. Finally, proceed to do this until you have enough General experience to buy out all the skills, strength, and will skills. You will now be maxed out on everything.

Go to the Temple of Light. Perform the "Unlimited Gold" glitch that requires the system date and time being set ahead. Get a few million gold. Then, donate all your gold. Afterwards you will notice some green General Experience around the donation pedestal. Use RT to gather it up. You should get a few thousand experience points, depending on if you donated a few thousand gold or a few million.

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.

Unlimited gold

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 Bowerstone Market, do not walk to the clock tower. Instead, do the Blacksmith job until you have a decent amount of gold (15,000 to 20,000 gold recommended). Quit the job and buy only the cheap houses in Bowestone market or Bowerstone slums. Rent out those houses with 0% added to rent. Once done, save and quit the game. Go back to your Xbox 360 Dashboard when offline. Go to your system settings and set the date to thirty days or one month later. Start the game again. Select the appropriate saved game file and continue. After the game resumes, you should receive a very large sum of gold from rent. Continue to buy and rent out more houses and set the system time one month ahead until you have about 4 million gold. You can now buy all properties in Albion and eventually unlock the "Ruler Of Albion" achievement.

Buy some real estate in game, such as a food vendor stall or a house. Once the real estate is purchased, adjust the rent/profits price to 100% of their default by clicking on the property paper on the side of the property. Save the game once the price has been raised. If you are connected to Xbox Live, disconnect as that will automatically update the clock and date. Exit out to the Xbox 360 dashboard and access the clock. Adjust the date and time. For best results, adjust the clock as far ahead in time as possible. For example, if the saved game date is June 1, 2005 and 12:15 a.m., adjust the clock to December 31, 2025, and 11:59 p.m. Then, reload the game and select "Continue". Once the game loads, wait a few seconds. You will see a large lump sum suddenly appear over your character's head. This is the money that you have accumulated in your "absence" from playing the game. Save the game. If you have Xbox Live, the easiest way to repeat this is to sign onto the service. Once the clock automatically resets to the correct time, save the game, quit, and repeat the trick. This works because the game gives you gold every five minutes in real time whether or not you are playing the game or have it turned off.

Note: This trick requires the full download of Fable 2 Pub Games. Play that game until you have an extremely high debt (any amount, but you can only do this trick once so a very high number is recommended). Then, start Fable 2. This trick must be done with an unpatched game; do not accept any online updates. Go to the Bowerstone town square and make enough gold to buy the cow and Corset Inn (for example, by blacksmithing). After you buy the inn, go into Fable 2 Pub Games and merge your Fable 2 character with the character that has the extremely high debt. Save the game, then return to Fable 2. You should gain all the money you owe in debt as gold because you now own the inn that one of the game masters is in.

Unlimited Rising Sun Cleaver legendary weapon

After you complete the "Donate to the Temple of Light" quest and receive the Rising Sun Legendary Cleaver, leave the temple and go back towards Oakfield. When you get to the split in the path where you can go over the small bridge to the right to travel to Oakfield, stay left and follow the path up the small hill towards the ruins at the top of the hill. When you get to the ruins, to the left is the entrance to the Wellspring Cave. Enter the cave then turn around and leave. When you get done loading the outside, you will receive another Rising Sun. Do this as many times as desired for money or to be used as gifts.

Unlockable

Go to www.fable2.com. There is a puppet show. Complete the puppet show to get various items in the game. You collect the items in the Guild Hall, in the chest by the Cullis gate. To get all the items, use the following directions.

Doll and Tattoo : Down + Good + third option + Good + first option
Book and Dye: Left + Evil + first option + Evil + third option
Three Piece Chicken Suit: Left + Evil + first option + Good + second option

Useless door

In Bowerstone Old Town, to left of the stall "Old Town Gift Stall" is a door. You can knock on it but not open it without violence. When you do, you will see nothing but a wall behind it.

Wraithmarsh Demon Door

To open this Demon Door you must bring a large audience to see him. A group of about ten people should do. Once you have your followers, fast travel to Brightwood Tower and use the Cullis Gate on top of the tower to warp to Wraithmarsh. Then, just walk up to The Demon door a short distance down the path and wait about two minutes for him to finish his speech. He will then open up and you may enter. The prize that awaits you is in an area called "Terry Cotter's Army" (a reference to the Terra Cotta Army). Go through the house and into the cave out back to discover a cave filled with statues (Terry Cotter's Army). Make your way through the statues to find a chest containing The Perferator, a legendary turret rifle.
