Two Player Experience Exploit
There is an extremely easy way to max out all of your stats in Fable 2 (Xbox 360) very quickly. You will need:
- 2 Xbox 360 controllers
- 20 minutes
It will make things a little faster if you do this while your character has had a few thousand experience points spent on upgrades, but it's alright if he/she hasn't.
The first step is to go to a safe place so you're not bothered. Bowerstone Market works just fine.
Next, turn on the second controller by pressing START once it's connected. This will bring up the co-op mode menu.
Now follow these next steps:
- On controller one, hit "A" for "Accept." (Then put that controller down. You won't be needing it for a bit.)
- On controller two, hit "A" for "Accept." Once you do that, a message will pop up stating: "In order for your experience and gold to be saved when you exit the game, you must choose a save game now. Do you want to continue without choosing a save?"
- On controller two, hit "A" for "Accept." Once you do that, another message will pop up stating: "If you do not sign into a gamer profile now, you will not earn achievements. Do you wish to continue?"
- On controller two, hit "A" for "Accept." Now there should be a henchman/henchwoman standing next to your Hero.
- Press START again on controller two and go to the henchman's Abilities menu.
- Go into each Ability (Strength, Skill, and Will), and Press "Y" to discard each ability.
- Confirm that you want to discard by hitting "A." Then continue by hitting "A" again.
- Do this for each level of each ability until the henchman, has no abilities left.
- Hit "B" to go back to the main pause menu and quit the game as the second player (the first player, your character, will still be standing around)
- Now, pick controller one back up, and go into your Abilities.
- All of the experience that the second player just unlearned and discarded is now in your experience bank for you to spend. FYI, it's all green orbs or "general experience" which can be used in all abilities categories.
- Spend that experience on whatever you want.
- Repeat from step 1 until all of your first player's stats are maxed out.
Hopefully I didn't make this too confusing for anyone. Have fun!

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!
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 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.
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.
Ending Achievements
There are achievements for getting all three endings in the game. But worry not! You don’t have to play through the game three different times to get all three achievements. Instead, simply make your choice at the end of the game and get the achievement. Once the achievement is unlocked, it’ s unlocked permanently, so reset your game, make another choice, and get the next achievement. So on and so forth!
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!
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.
