WARNING, THIS IS A SPOILER, LOOK AWAY NOW IF YOU DON'T WANT TO "SPOIL" YOUR GAME!





Ok, well i just finished the "Save the archeologist" quest and failed the first time when i actually tried to kill all the minions, i found a new, much faster and easier way of killing all the minions and saving him in under 3.5 minutes.

Heres what you need:
-Strong force push
-Divine fury
-Lots of will and health potions/food
-You may also want to bring some Will users armour [ i used dark and chain helm]

What you do:
-Seeing as the timer starts when u enter the prison path, you can take as long as you want killing all the minions with melee or whatever [ try not to waste food or potions ]
-SPOILER When you come to the earth golum, stand as close as you can to him, so he can't throuh boulders, hit him as many times as you can and then when he looks around to attack close to him [rocks through the ground] combat roll backwards out of the way, then repeat.
-When you get to the prison path, heal yourself and your mana to the full, and then just run straight through all the monsters using force push to push them out the way straight to the archeologist, once there, heal your mana and health as needed until full.
-Then use divine fury as much as you want to kill all the monsters, making sure to pot up health and mana as its needed in between, the mages fireballs will not effect you when you are using Divine Fury however the swordsmen will.

Tips:
-Try to use Diving fury as quickly as possibe after the other one.
-When running to the archeologist, do not sprint as this may make you stop and use a special attack
-Keep an eye on your mana and health throughout the whole quest as the minions are quite strong.

I hope this helps and good luck with the quest! :]

Other tips include rescuing as many guards as possible as they will help in clearing out the monsters between you and the archaeologist. As what Naylor mentioned, you will need to stack up on both health and will potions as the fights can be touch. Also be prepared to use Enflame and other support spells a lot as you will face numerous enemies.

i have a better method.

Once u reach prison path cast slow time and run to the end where the archeologist is held then just kill the few blue minions that throw spheres at you, then u will pass the quest. u dont need to kill all the minions just the blue ones.

i have passed 5 profiles for fable TLC so i know what i'm talking about

the timed quest are fairly cut and dry. with physical shield and the Solus (or prefered weapon of choice), you should be able to kill all minions in plenty of time, as long as you don't drag your feet. 2-2 1/2 mins should be all you need.
