The Blades Spell Gauntlet is a gauntlet in Fable III that allows the player to summon mystical blades that can impale enemies. It is almost identical in style to the Blades spell of Fable II. A fully charged, aimed attack with the Blades Spell Gauntlet has the highest raw damage of all the spells in Fable III. As such, it is devastating to individual targets. It is a far less effective spell to use on its own when surrounded by enemies for the following reasons: it has a delayed effect when casting area-of-effect and the lacks the staying power of Shock or Vortex.
