Castle Fairfax
Fable II Walkthrough and Guide
Fable II Guide - Castle Fairfax
 |
Invest the money in shops and real estate so you are generating as much money as possible, then work on getting five-star acclaim in all the jobs in the game, particularly serving drinks behind the various bars in the game. The money is to purchase the massive Castle Fairfax, which holds the last few secret items in the game, but to actually trigger the specific quest, sleep in Lucien's bed, if you can bear it. You will be awoken by bandits attacking from a tomb underneath the castle, so take out those in your room and nearby, before proceeding down into the tomb to finish them off.
While your luck with enemy-infested houses thus far hasn't been great, you need to defeat these enemies to get the rewards on offer. Head through the enemies after activating the lever when you enter the tomb and then through the left-most door. You will eventually come to a room with another orb in, so use whatever colour button it recommends to whack it around the room until it allows you into the next room. Open the chests and pick up the Sex-change Potion on the table. This allows you, as the name suggests, to permanently change your gender for the rest of the game. You have to make the decision right now, in this tomb, or the opportunity is gone. Happily though your castle is now bandit-free, and as owner of the prestigious property you receive 10,000 renown.
The next quest also requires some formalities to be filled before it is activated, namely living a double life with two spouses!
Fable 2 SuperCheats
1. Buy one or more of the weapon stands. You get a 39% shop owner discount and that helps immensely with what I'm about to tell you. ((The weapon stand in Old Town is probably your best bet if you gave the warrants to the sheriff whn you were a child.))
2. Once you buy the weapon stand(s), buy as many of the weapons as possible.
3. Fast travel to Fairfax Gardens and sell all of the weapons you just bought. The traveling merchants in FG will buy the weapons (and other things, to be completely honest) at more than base value. Just be sure that you don't go buying anything from those merchants while in FG because they sell things for more than base value also.
This does take a little time to build up gold, but it's a lot faster than waiting for the real estate wealth and jobs you do to accumulate. The more gold you raise, the more buildings you can buy to raise profits and the more weapons you can buy to sell in FG.
Is there any other way to get the money for this castle? +Other than the time cheat. +Other than working and getting 5 stars in every job.
it was easy for me move shoot though i did use the odd hand gun from the island mystery box thing
I got to the potion once and it was cool
It was pretty easy, I got it done on my first try, the secret is the orb changes color so you either shoot it it zap it with magic
i know how to get Fairfax castle free
i cant get past he first orb room and ive hit each thing everytime help??
Can anyone send be that stupid sex change posion. I may have drank the silly thing
hey you guys that say to just shoot instead of manual aim it really works thanks
I had some trouble with this as well but after reading through all the comments here I figured out a good way to do it. I used lvl 2 blades then moved in front of the third opening and shot all 3 in a row with no problem. Just tap Y don't hold it in. & for everyone that commented and said how easy it is & that you just have to shoot it, you are very rude! This is for helping gamers not to criticize or 'brag' cause it was sooo easy for you! Grow up & be nice! I hope this helps whoever may need help!
Your wife will be in the gardens, not the castle. That's where mine always is anyways.
hey i bought the castle but it never shows my wife in the castle or the garden
Theres a glitch in fairfax castle where if you set it as your marital home your wife dissapears :D
The 2nd quest it talked about at the end won't start
to find your wife, go to the "family" menu and set her as your tasking. You should get the golden trail to her.
in fairfax tomb, the room with decending stairs where Hobbes attack you, there is an Obelisk at the bottom of the stairs. I have searched and searched for an orb to chase around but can't find one. Does anyone know what i'm talking about or where to find it?
umm yeah, i bought the castle, but my bro got me married in that place and now i cant seem to find my wife anywhere, can someone plz help???
