Weekly Fallen London Questions, 8/1/2018

Silly question but… In between grinding for the Cider, I have been sort of grinding for a Parabolan Base Camp. Has there been any official mention of such plans? For example, FB sort of discouraged us from preparing for De Gustibus, which I guess saved a lot of people from grinding and then getting dissapointed. I wonder if we have anything similar here.

I have a question.

Is there a reliable and repeatable method of increasing one’s Magnanimous quality, preferably up to 10?

Also, is there a reliable and repeatable method of increasing one’s Hedonist quality, preferably up to 10?

Nothing at the moment and level 99 Dream quality is an extra placeholder for &quotit’s going to take a while before you see this&quot.

Magnanimous (Air option in Wolfstack for level 4) if you don’t care about Melancholy and Hedonist is a bit tricky. You have multiple cards from the Intimate of Devils, Mr. Wines card, small boost not related to cards,followed by abusing the Handsome Townhouse card, but you need some Laudanum, A Visit card’s option for the Sardonic Music-Hall Singer, Polite Invitation card and most reliable, if you haven’t advanced further in the University story is this ending of the carousel.

Wait a sec, so about flash lays, does that mean you need 10 bohemian renown? I’ve been neglecting that completely (I’m not even sure I have the 5 from the carnival), but I recall being able to use it in the past. Maybe my memory is wrong.

They’ve put 10 Renown from one faction or another on tons of things lately, and I personally hate it!

ETA: And yet I don’t see that in Veilgarden–just name written with flourish, etc.

I’m pretty sure declaring your affection for another Nethean and asking your sweetheart out on indulgent evenings will do the trick.

Hello friends. My main character is totally not into revolutionaries and their LoN stuff. My alt was born to dip into it, and I found out that expedition to Nadir is tied to revolutionary activities. Now I want my main to open a way to Nadir too. I have Secular Missionary progress 11, and her card requires Revolutionary Firebrand progress, but I did not met him yet. Wiki said I need Renown with Dynamites at 5 so I got it, but all I’ve got is their Comission opportunity card. Am I supposed to do somethng else to have R.F. shown up? Or he is sitting somewhere as permanent storylet? Should I plot against the Masters (I prefer no to, if this is optional) ?

You’re just waiting on a card - the RNG can be ficky. No need to plot against the Masters.

Thanks a lot!

Thank you for answering. Looks like I will have to start indulging in a less than laudable Laudanum habit to get my Hedonist quality back up.

Mutton island is probably your best bet.

Going to get the Urchins’ Renown 40 item, hmmm?

Are there any good ways to cash in a lot of Connected: Benthic and Connected: Summerset? I’ve accidentally gotten a lot of it grinding at the University, and it would be nice if I could do something with it.

Not for monetary profit. However, both Connected values are used to upconvert items in processes that also happen to grant considerable (but rather random) amounts of Making Waves. Hold onto them; they will be handy when you just need a squirt more Making Waves.

If anyone would so kind as to answer it in PM
I’m currently doing Flint, and i’m recruiting for the expedition. is there any other place to recruit besides the storylet? am i supposed to wait for any card?

Yep.

Thank you, suinicide

For those of you who have reached the content barrier on Ambition: Nemesis, will it be detrimental later in the ambition to sell my soul at A:N 31?

Is Neathmas quite over, now? I’ve been sitting on 800 Tribute for a month, now, and I’d hate to miss anything while I was touring the Elder Continent.

No, at least I can’t recall anything i’ve needed my soul for
