So, I’m at the point where I should actually pick my POSI Specialization (I’ve been waiting till after the Feast out of worry that Notability would be relevant). So… what should I actually pick? I have Watchful, Shadowy, and Persuasive all at 200.[li]
Mostly I’m curious if there are any notable or interesting actions linked to POSI Specialization – I’ve spotted two for Persuasive, but none for the others as of yet.
The specialisations are still in an early stage of implementation - I don’t know of any use for them apart from A: becoming a Patron, B: raising one’s stats above 200, and C: the two Persuasive uses that you mention. If you don’t have a clear and immediate use for specialising just yet, you might even want to hold off until more uses for them, and/or the ability to change specialisations, is implemented. (Personally, I chose mine on characterisation grounds, figuring that however they’re developed in the future, I’ll have fun along the way!)
Edited to make several corrects because apparently I can’t English.

What be those persuasive uses? :>
One is a chance to seduce Slowcake’s Amanuensis for Making Waves (option appears on his card). The other popped out at this Feast and allows a special way to interact with a noted NPC.
I would add: Extraordinary Mind does not add any new action that I know of, but raising Watchful over the cap does qualify a player for otherwise unreachable levels of Scholar of the Correspondence.
Ya, I have to admit - the charismatic option has had all the fun choices so far - at least to my knowledge.

I think you can still reach 21 Scholar without being an Extraordinary Mind if you have a Watchful Destiny (total boost, with mood and Ubergoat, +104).[/li][li]

Is it me or was there briefly an option that required all four stats maxed?
I think that was a speculation on how to get Extraordinary Presence.
excuse me. but could anyone who is a “Shattering Force” please advise me on how to raise dangerous to 200 if i am at around 110? read somewhere that they use up their accumulated Hard-earned Lessons for that.
is there any other faster way to earn dangerous, that can also earn a fair bit of echos/resources along the way? i don’t believe i’ve earned enough resources to sell off and buy an infernal rifle yet. and i would prefer to stay in london, to avoid losing making waves and notability.
My favourite Dangerous grind, after having complete the Velocipede Squad storyline (and if you haven’t, then do that), is to indulge in a highly prolonged War of Assassins in the Forgotten Quarter. 90% chance is Dangerous somewhere around 170, I believe.
thank you. i’ll check that out again, i usually used the watchful challenges for war of assassins. the reward is rather underwhelming though. worth less than 1 echo per action even if you’re very lucky or have a maxed out stat?
as for velocipede squad, i’ve reached the point where i have to venture out to polythreme(sp?) to do more figuring on the jack-of-mysteries. think i’'ll have to unequip half my dangerous tools to get the challenges back to "chancy", which is a wee bit tedious since i like check my deck before doing anything else.
Take a former lover as your rival. It will give you out collection of curiosities, which are pretty much useful to sell to Tomb colonists when the card comes.
(You’ll earn a lot more collections than the one you can actually sell of, but with time they’ll give you a huge amount of money.)
