Here’s this week’s thread for any Fallen London questions you don’t want to start a whole thread for!
So is there a reason that Law Hunting always starts with mismatched prey and hunter forms except to purposedly waste an action?
As far as I remember that’s how it has always been and is probably a priced in action in the payout calculation on the design side.
So, yes. It’s to waste an action, like other setup actions in other activities.
On the universe side, they are tricky those laws, when you start the activity, they are already a step ahead of you.
Coolio, I just wondered if there was a workaround or if it was working as intended.
I’m done with that carrousel anyway.
Other question because who cares about double posting anyway.
Am I correct in understanding getting Storm Phrenodies through Miser Herding requires two cycles per SP? One to get Latent Recollection, one to spend it?
Not exactly…
You need to complete at least one full Herding cycle to get one Latent Recollection, but after that the time for cashout will arrive at random since you need to wait for the correct card draw.
Sometimes you will draw the Storm cashout card immediately before finishing the second cycle, but sometimes you will not see it before completing several cycles.
In any case, the payout is proportional to the number of completed cycles, so you’ll always get the same amount of Threnodies per action.
BTW, you get two Threnodies per cycle.
Once again, much obliged for the answer!
I have the storylet Not as you are, anyway in my active plans and in my completed plans. The Storylet in-game shows as if it’s an active plan. Has anyone else experienced that? Are there different storylets with the same name I am not aware of?
I think I’ve had this happen when manually flagging something a second time after completing it(??) But also I just need to say that this seems extremely on-theme for Irem.
