OFF WITH THEIR HEADS!!!!

Yeah, this might be somewhere else as well, but when I searched "decapitations" it brought up too much. I didn't feel like searching all the many-paged threads.

Here's the question: is there anyway to control decapitiations? In one of my old Fable games I could pretty reliably shoot them off with arrows, but I haven't figured out how to make melee decapitations more likely, and the decapitation-by-pointy-length-of-wood-at-high-velocity method was screwed when the save was corrupted (which lost my high-powered game-beaten game because I had only saved it in one slot).

So, to reiterate:

Any way to force a decapitations, or increase the likelihood of getting one?

I'm not so sure on this one, but somewhere around where I got my first greataxe (obsidian I think) I managed to get mass decapitations. I don't know if it has anything to do with the weapon alone or just luck, but when I had that weapon around the arena stage, it seemed to happen alot. My guess is that it's because I was strong enough to decapitate them without killing them outright with one blow of the axe.

If you daze an enemy, a flourish from any sharp weapon will always decapitate him.

It doesn't always have to be a sharp weapon. I've seen my boyfriend get quite a few with his Murren Greathammer

Oh yeah, that's it. I haven't played Fable in awhile (sacrelige, I know) and I forgot for a moment there. Too bad that when you beat the game you're so powerful you mostly just kill them in one hit. It's kind of hard to chop their heads off when they die way too easily.

Re: OFF WITH THEIR HEADS!!!!

Hmmm... now, if only I could figure out how to get them dazed more easily... I use an ax, and the only time they seem to get dazed is when they're knocked to the ground, and I can't hit them then...

Oh, well, thanks anyway.

When you use Berserk, your final hit on your enemy has a chance to lob their head off aswell.

Re: OFF WITH THEIR HEADS!!!!

In order to get them dazed but not killed you can use a weapon that isn't as strong. Someone is dazed when they are close to death but not dead. A powerful weapon will pass by the "almost dead state more often that not. Once they are in this state a flourish will decapitate them as has been stated. Berzerk is in a constant state of flourish. Any weapon can decapitate your victim even you fists as you'll see in my Fable video *{shameless self promotion :devil:}*

You do that. It is the most awsome "spell" in the game, if you ask me! :devil:

I second that it is awesome. There is nothing like punching someone's head off you really must try it

Re: OFF WITH THEIR HEADS!!!!

Usually I never use anything but Force Push and Slow Time, and later Divine Fury, but I just want some decapitation.

By the way, though-- you can get decapitations other ways, like I said in my first post. In the original I was an archer almost all of the way through, and head and neck shots could take off their heads-- the bodies would fall, their heads would spin around in the air above them and then drop to the ground. Then I'd play some soccer. GOAL!!!

Re: OFF WITH THEIR HEADS!!!!

If you have an ultimate weapon such as mine you can just mod it so that you always decapitate.

Re: OFF WITH THEIR HEADS!!!!

Yeah, I forgot that, too. On one of my Fable originaly games that happened all the time. I'd just sit there and fry all the baddies so they couldn't get to me. It was easier than acutually fighting when I had already beaten the game and hit the "unbeatable" point.
