Fruits of the Zee Festival

I had Strange Catch of 8 and 9, both times it resulted in Wrecker’s cove 6. Curse you RNG, why are you tormenting me like that?

142

It’s impossible to aim for a particular level of Cove-Picking. The only way is to try and try and try again…

I don’t know yet since I’m out of actions. But I don’t think so, the text from picking up the Wimple a second time said something along the lines of her not being interested in it anymore. Guess it’s just a souvenir now…

[quote=RandomWalker]When the RNG deigns to smile on you, you’ll have the option to trade in the wimple to the Mayor. The Mayor will take you to the lighthouse and discuss how her term in office is going - she’s concerned that the Masters are using her efforts for their own ends.

You can either advise her to stay the course, or to oppose the Masters. I didn’t notice any qualities changing whichever you choose. When you leave, you’re ambused by a reporter. No idea what happens if you sell out or take a bride to stay schtum, but if you keep quiet you get a quality and a Favours in High Places. No unique items.[/quote]
It’s worth noting that it seems that the Steadfast gain from that is capable of getting you to 15, and presumably the other options do the same for other quirks. I’m guessing Ruthless or Heartless for the blackmail, but I don’t know what would work for the other stuff- it could be almost anything depending on the writing of it.

144

I can confirm, you only get to meet her once. Clever FBG knew we’d try to use it to farm Blackmail Material/Diamonds/FiHP. Good foresight on their part.

145

finished fishing. i got 6 running battle for the first fish and i got 8 running battle for the second fish. i dont know how many strange catches i had but i assume i had 8 strange catches.

i got lucky and get level 6 of cove-picking on first try. i immediately pick the equipable cloak that increases stats, which is exactly what i want.

anyway. is there any other notable rewards or content in the festival ?. i feel i had enough.

146

I am gonna take a break from Mutton, get back in a day or two…I got Destiny, Wrecking Boots and Cloak, anyway. Effluvia and Wimple will have to wait until I am a little less irritated with RNG

147

Thanks for the tips earlier! I now have a jillyfleur cloak and effluvia of my vary own. Yay? ;-)

Well, partially. If it selects a random number with no filtering, then the best way to get the item for any of the &quotExactly X&quot items is to hit exactly their level running battle. this would mean that exactly six has a 1-in-six, exactly five has a 1-in-5, exactly 4 has a 1-in-four, and so on. Obviously, you’d either want to start with 7+, or with 6, and then work your way down if you can.

149

Is the Wimple trade in option a Sights at the Festival unlock?

150

Yes, and it’s about as common as the Hooded Lady Strange Catch trade-in! ;)

[quote=BlabberingMat][quote=phryne]Not sure whether this is new, but you can get the Wimple a second time now. Not sure whether there’s another follow-up either, but the text seemed to suggest you get to keep it this time.

So, you get to meet the Mayor again, then?[/quote]
Sounds like you’d have a very different meeting though.

152

A question, I accidentally misclicked in Wrecker’s COve, is it possible to draw the card that allwos you top pick rewards again?

153

Don’t quite follow the question, but the only non-repeatable content in the festival is the meeting with the mayor, as far as I’m aware, although you can only pick up items you don’t already have. Just get a bother catch and try again.

154

Got my cloak and my Rector, but darn do those menaces go up quickly at the festival.
Has anyone gotten strange catch 12+ yet? I’m curious to the fluff text for them.

155

Yeah, I jsut got the card to pick up another reward from teh festival. Thansk for the help, sorry for bothering.

A lithp? Sorry, I don’t know what you mean.

Don’t worry, it’s a joke. &quotLithp&quot is &quotLisp&quot when said with a lisp, because you insert a lot of S’es into your speech.

159

So, does anyone know what happens to your quirks if you tell Jenny to oppose the Masters?

(It’s unlikely to affect Melancholy, but I’m grinding it and don’t want to make a bad mistake.)

Ah, I see, thanks for explaining.
