Parabolan War

[quote=PSGarak]Cat campaigns epilogue is in the Dome of Scales. Note that there are storylets gated by Dominance, and other storylets gated by Stage of the War; it’s the latter that disappear when you start a new campaign. This is the only one I’ve actually played. It’s mostly repeatable actions that give 2.5e of rewards, with the text and reward depending on your final decisions.

According to the Wiki, Snake campaign epilogue is in the Viric Jungle. Chessboard is probably the only one in London, since the storyline revolves around a Londoner instead of a Parabolan native.

The other one, who knows.[/quote]

Thanks for bringing this up - I was clueless, and found the London epilogue in Wolfstack. Seems to be repeatedly available, though I guess it will disappear if I start a new campaign?

You could get Wretched Mog in Waswood when cats are dominant.

Can someone, please, visit Helicon in their spare actions and check if anything new appeared?

Moulin isn’t likely to be updated, and I cannot remember any other connection beside Mahogany Hall and Miriam’s side-show.

Also, complaining: why can’t we have mirrors at other stations as well? Burrow mentions one already open after finishing the church, you could likely negotiate with His Tentacledness at Helicon to be let through their magicians’ room, it isn’t strange for a souvenir shop to have one, Moulin’s institute is built by you, so there’s an opportunity to hide one in a closet, and Evenlode is so large noone would find one in a different closet as well.

So I just finished my chessboard campaign (draw ending where “nothing happens”) and I can’t find the epilogue in Wolfstack.

Same for me. I don’t know what is required: for the Chessboard to be ascendant, or to have completed a Chessboard campaign with no tie. After that, I completed the Chessboard campaign for the white and found the house.

The annoying thing about this is that I have no idea whether or not there’s an epilogue for me to find somewhere else now.

How do I unlock the option to campaign for “Myself”?

You need Mirror-Fed 7, have completed your Ambition, and have Parabolan Commander at 6 (&quotOne Not To Be Taken Lightly&quot).

Ah, thank you.

I wish they’d show all options, as I could have seen what was required that way.

Still, I’ll give that a pass then. From what I gather on the wiki, you get 1 Mirror-Fed for specific options at the end of each campaign? With how action-intensive the campaigns are, I don’t think I’ve the patience or inclination to work towards that . . . a shame, but hopefully I’ll see what happens with that option as others unlock and complete it.

I’m pretty sure I got some mirror-fed from one of the regular campaign options in either wastes of want or hanging mountains, the one requiring memories of a lesser self where you make copies of yourself or some such.

I’ve got Mirror-Fed 1 after completing 3 (or 4) campaigns and upgrading 3 generals. I have no idea how I got it, how to get more, or why I want to.

I’ve somehow ended up with zero Mirror-Fed ^_^()

I’ve completed my ambition, and I have the right Parabolan Commander quality, but the thought of going through the campaigns again is exhausting . . . I appreciate the mechanics (although they could be clearer with instructional texts and/or in-game guides), and it’s very well-written and developed, but I’ve never been a fan of Parabola or the characters/groups involved, so I was admittedly just clicking to get through it without reading much of the story. The idea of seven more goes - dependent on the wiki for which options - at 50-100 actions per campaign -? That’s . . . intense.

Kudos to those that manage/managed it, though.

Time the Healer reduced my Ravages by 10. I had 15

You only need one more Campaign. You can get Mirror-Fed with the &quotDelegate to Yourself&quot option, which is one of the Advance-building options. It gives 2xAdvance, so you could level it to 12 in a single campaign. It could even be one of the &quotshorter&quot campaigns since it’s in Stage 3.

Or…

You can also get Mirror-Fed from the kitchen at Station VIII. Create one of the dishes that uses the Parabolan hybrid fruit, and eat it yourself.

Apparently that requires a &quotMemory of a Much Lesser Self&quot?

I wouldn’t mind the constant and complicated research involved, as now I need to work out how to get one of those in order to use &quotDelegate to yourself&quot, so that I can then get &quotMirror-Fed&quot in an ‘easier’ way to then unlock &quotMyself&quot, as - as convoluted as it is - a lot of the game relies on various conversions and searches and so forth (sometimes fun, sometimes not), but . . .

By not showing all options, with the unlock requirements, and without a guide and/or said unlock requirements (which usually come with little hints about how to obtain said item/quality), it forces one to rely a lot on the wiki and/or forum. I’m so grateful it’s an amazing community, and I thank you and others a lot for your patience, but none of this is clear or intuitive, and I feel that it should be the game that helps with all of this and not the good will of other players (some of which are equally as stumped). It’s been a rather frustrating piece of content so far.

I happen to have a pile of Memories of a Much Lesser Self lying around from the Hell-Scarred Gondolier’s card. But a new source was added, in the Cabinet Noir in Balmoral. Cover Identity Elaboration should convert 1:1 into Memories, which will convert 1:1 with mirror-fed.

FBG has been very good in the past about incorporating player feedback. We’re playing the content right when it’s released, which means we get to be the ones to hit all the rough edges that need to be sanded off. I expect Warfare whole thing to be a bit smoother in a few weeks. I’ve already seen a lot more explainer text in the Dreams part of the Viric Jungle, Warfare may take a little longer just because it’s so big.

[quote=PSGarak]But a new source was added, in the Cabinet Noir in Balmoral. Cover Identity Elaboration should convert 1:1 into Memories[/quote]That does sound like it might be easier than the Magistracy diving bell, which is where I was getting them.

Still stumped as to how to get mirror-catch boxes, I think someone said Waswood but I dumped a bunch of actions there and got zip.

Curious has anyone seen a epilogue storylet after finishing the campaign against ‘yourself’? Can’t seem to find it anywhere in London atm.

It’s a rare success in the Waswood (low airs values only) - getting them from there might take quite a while.

You can also get them from a rare success when giving speeches on Light and Beauty in Ealing/Jericho/Evenlode, if you aren’t playing Black. (I have no idea how frequent this result is)

So apparently our options are &quotbad&quot and &quotworse&quot on this one.
