Flute Street.
+1
So it’s a Fate locked item.
Can someone that got the item PM me the requirements and the benefits of it?
Cheers!
Are you sure it’s the third item and not the newly uncovered Favors option available there?
Pretty sure, coz I couldn’t do that one since my renown isn’t high enough, I then did the other new storylet, which got me a favour.
How much Renown is needed for this new item?
It needs 40 renown and 7 favours.
Let’s say one starts at Renown 5 thanks to the Carnival and starts using the Pulsating Amber. This will take 21 Favors to get to level 8, another 42 to get to level 15 and 238 (34*7) to get to level 40 and 7 more to get this mysterious item.
Now, how hard can it be to get 308 Favors? :D
As a personal curiosity: how much did it took the people that started with 40+ Renown to get the Connection level before the update?
Cheers!

Well, if you solely get favours in Flute Street, it’d take you 24 actions per favour, so 7392 actions. Plus however many actions going into and out of Flute Street to convert favours to renown. Over two months if that was all you did. If someone else wants to calculate it exactly, by all means.
I had I think ~165 Connected: Rubbery Men, which I believe turned into about 27 Renown, and 7 Favours.
Hahaha, a bit crazy!
Think it’s probably a 3 months grind and the cost is huge. Boxfuls of Intrigue offers a 1.64 EPA which, if you waste 7392 AP, will get you 12122.88 E which is more than enough to buy a nice, little goat!
Did the math and stopped dreaming; thanks for the info!
Yeah, that puts in more in the realm of players who already had massive connection levels before the switch, or who already have their goat(s) and need another goal to pursue.
The first item is on their connection card, the second one I heard is somewhere in the university, but I don’t know about that one myself.[/quote]
Just travel to the University; you’ll see it. It requires 25 Rubbery Renown and 5 Favours to play.
Fortunately, my old “Connected” Rubbery stat is still on my profile. I had 171 Connected: Rubbery; it turned into 30 Renown.
You only need less than 120 Favors to get to level 40 (among other things). Damn, I envy you all!
But since I just got my 4 card lodging after many heists (fun even none yielded a Searing Enigma) I’m starting to cure my menaces and start grinding the slow connections. I just hope the academic ones aren’t the next in line! :D
Can someone PM me the fate-locked item’s stats, if possible? It’s a shame that they fate-locked the most exclusive one, but i guess that’s inevitable. i hope they don’t do it for all the trees though- that renown 25 is the highest that actually gives a reward for those of us who can’t buy fate.
Well, it doesn’t really matter, i’m independently wealthy. still.

I’m hoping Bohemians won’t be next, myself.
Right now I have exactly 1 Rubbery Favour. When I get 5, I’m going to do the University Storylet that yields a unique Rubbery item.
Seeing how the Rubbery Men changeover cleaned up some annoying cards, I’m looking forward to when they update Hell connections.
I’d expect the Widow to be next, and then Hell- everything else has a Connected Challenge out there somewhere, which makes the change just that much harder to implement.
I’ll toss my hat into the "Please PM me the new Flute Street item" ring.
This update has been fantastic. More Rubbery Goodness? Yes, please. I just wish I had not neglected raising my Connected: Rubbery Men so much after reaching ‘Amberine’. The grind awaits.
I’m also curious about how, upon obtaining the companion from the University, I get, "A gift from your Rubbery associates. A new item is now visible - search London to find it.". I had previously gotten the cello… and if this item referred to is the new thing in Flute Street then I think that is downright misleading to the point of meanness. Flute Street isn’t in London.

I’d like to add my name to list of those curious enough about the new rubbery item to want a PM.
