Magic use strategy.
Level 1 Raise Dead - Keep enemies off of you.
Level 2 Time Control - Slows enemies down, nuff said.
Level 3 Blades - Really strong when used as targeted.
Level 4 Inferno - Really strong, nuff said.
Level 5 Inferno - Best spell in the game, imho.
I'm kind of bored with this game also. I haven't beaten it yet, but like Fable 1 after I completed the Arena I began to get bored and no longer enjoyed the game. As for Fable 2, after I finished the Coliseum my interest started to fade away.
I'm fat as hell and for the life of me i can't lose the weight. I'm completely maxed out on all stats. 100% corrupt, 50% good/evil.
Bottom line, the game is to linear and doesn't boast the hype it was claimed to have.
