Fable: Hint - Guild Apprentice Race

If you are having trouble beating the demon door race guild member during your apprentice training, here are a few tips on how to get there really quickly and back:

Beat him up, whack him as close as you can be bothered to until your bored of the constant Maze visits, then you will have less ground to cover when your racing.

The demon door counts as a person in the guild. Whack someone 3 times and then begin the race with the apprentice, and get to the demon door. With 3 warnings, fire an arrow at the demon door (has to be an arrow not lightning or sword strikes) and you will be sent to Maze's office. Quickly skip and pelt it down the stairs to save time returning to the apprentice.

Stand as far away as possible from the apprentice before talking to him and getting the race, the further away you are means you get extra seconds, and they can count when you need them.

Try it at night. There will be no one getting in your way and you are free to run there and back without any interuptions.

If all else fails, remember to hold down the B button to sprint like crazy. Try to be at the demon door for 25 seconds, at the wooden bridge for 10 seconds, and around the hedgerow at 3 seconds left, if you can do that the attempt is as good as yours.
