I have a question. What is the best way to get each item needed for this luck based quest?

I will accept all actions, though I hold the right to refuse for my own reasons. However, if you explain WHY you send me a harmful action like Loitering or Dantes,And I feel the reason good, I will consider it more. http://fallenlondon.storynexus.com/Profile/Kylestien

Persuasive patron. You want a lesson, send me a message asking for one.

Thanks for the advice all, but I must ask: can someone just give me the best options in a list like for example:

Plaques: Do such and such.
Candles: Seek the name I MEAN DO affair of the box or something.

Transcribing the sources from the link:

1. Steal Tales of Terror!! via Thefts of a Particular Character in the Flit
2. Steal Journals of Infamy via Thefts, side-convert to Correspondence Plaques then Visions of the Surface
3. Steal Journals again, side-convert to Plaques
4. Steal Brilliant Souls
5. Grind Jade through Watchmaker's Hill Unfinished Business as needed, get Refreshments in Labyrinth of Tigers first coil for Incendiary Gossip with the added benefit of Wounds and Unaccountably Peckish reduction. (Alternatively, with Acquainted with Miriam Plenty's Past, chat with her in the Carnival at slightly lower Gossip gain but using a Persuasive challenge.) Convert Gossip upwards to Identities Uncovered.
6. Steal Tales of Terror!! or Journals of Infamy and convert up to Extraordinary Implications
7. Grind Mourning Candles via Affair of the Box

Whilst we're on that note, Identities are usually upconverted into from Incendiary Gossip, which can be gained by using that very same Detective's Card from before when you have a case.

While it isn't sustainable, it has a profit EpA of 1.5, and turns the generally impractical whispered secrets into another echo of gossip, letting you make 10 identities uncovered every 11 actions, though at the cost of 1000 whispered secrets and 10 business cards. [assuming you found it worth starting a case with no intent to finish, ofc.] there's a point in the game where these things are absurdly common, though- especially if you're raising watchful using the constables' op card. Worth noting for those who already have them, though not worth seeking them out for.

I will accept all social actions that do not consume free evenings- and i will provide patronage to anyone who requests it, though it will be split between all requesters.
On psudeo-hiatus. Will be inactive and active and fluctuate without warning.

By the way an_ocelot, I'm pretty sure they nerfed the University grinding method - I heard it gave less Investigating now. That or raiding a message-drop pays out less.

I just checked Raid a Message Drop and More Then Just Messages and don't see anything different. I'll check the University content in a bit, but I'm out of actions. Interview the Dept... seems the same at least.

Edit: Ok, so if you're pretty sure then I'm willing to believe you that something changed, but I can't find it. All payouts in Investigations are the same, and the Flit cash in doesn't seem to have been altered either. I also checked the odds of success on Raid and those remain at 70% while at 5 Investigating. Is there something I missed?
