1. Sword of Aeons
Sacrifice your sister after defeating Jack of Blades and the sword is yours

2. Can't really think which is the next best thing to Skorm's Bow at the minute...

3. Have to get back to you on that one too. ^_^

1. if you have fable TLC its the solus greatsword. if not, its the sword of aeons.
2. best longbow (other thatn skorm's bow): master longbow get from traveling merchants and several other shops. best crossbow : arkan's crossbow location: darkwood lake in a 15 key chest
3. yes plate is the best. all the different plates (light, dark, normal) have the same defence value.

Re: What is the best Sword+bow&Armour?

uhmm...if u want attack power the solus great sword is(well...bearever might b but im not sure), but if u want speed and power, id go with sword of aeons, cause it tends to b if u need to kill somthing by the time u have acess to these to either 1, they have lots of health so better to attack faster as ull make it up over the time, or they have like no health and it takes 1 or 2 hits either way and they cant hurt u

then the best bow.....arkens crossbow is best damage, just the speed of it is horrible...i use master long bow, then just...augment it to w/e u want

then best armor, kid above me, nice try but actually its arkons armor, from 25 key chest in necropolis, and has 1102 defense rating...and the helmet comes with it unlike the plate which u have to find...

Re: What is the best Sword+bow&Armour?

there are 30 keys in the game. and you dont need any to get the breaver. its behind a demon door that wants you to give up all your keys to him. but if you have actually gotten that far in the game without finding any keys he says something like "how the hell did you get this far without finding a single silver key?!? well, a deal is a deal, come in, but why do i always get the freaks?" in my opionon, you only need 25 keys cuz the the sword in the 30 key chest is **** and its way stupid looking aswell. does anyone actually use it?

i have played fable/tlc well over a hundred times, so i am a self proclamed expert. although a little rusty. but it still really ****es me off when someone acts like i dont know what im talking about (not nessisarily talking about you btw). i may not know much about, well, anything, but i do know fable, thats for sure. and after fable 2 comes out, you wont here from me for like a month, but when i do come back i will surly be able to help just about anyone with anything. me, and about 500 other people on here that is XD.

different strokes for different folks i guess. well, i will just stick with the solus greatsword thanx. but the breaver does look cooler i think. mabey later when i get off my lazy ass, and the oven that is my room cools down, i will mod the breaver for myself...... :shifty:

I get myself a Master Greatsword, then apply the silver, sharpening and piercing augmentations to it as soon as I get them. It's excellent against any enemy, especially against balverines, undead, minions and screamers.

Any augment is useful against screamers, a x5 multiplier I believe. Silver is good against anything unholy or unnatural. Sharpening is a +10% and that's great but piercing and fire make a good combo in late-game in the northern wastes as many of the enemies there are armored and weak to fire. The Solus greatsword then is stupidly OP paired with multistrike and berserk.

Thanks for the augment advice, VinDiesel. It's just a shame that you can't pick up slain enemies' weapons, then either use any yourself, or sell them to shops or wandering traders. After all, you keep what you kill.

@wulfric it might be in a wooden chest on the graveyard path. After recovering Nostro's armour talk to the Lychfield demon door and it will begrudgingly let you pass. After redeadding the undead you will come to a set of big-a$$ stone doors. Go through these doors and soon you will come you two identical stone arch like structures. Just before you go through either bear righ and keep going. I believe the silver augmentation you seek may be in that wooden chest. If not, try the silver key chest at the Circle of the Dead.

I hope this is helpful to you.

PS

I just remembered that there is a resurrection phial in that wooden chest. The silver key chest does contain the augmentation.
