I've heard that Tears of the Bazaar have a 1/5th chance of burning up, and if this is correct then you can probably expect about 6 levels on average.

Sorry, wrong question- how much volume, from the description, do you think the vials of tears hold each? I'm wondering if it's, say, 1 fluid ounce a vial- in which case, i have 1/4th of a gallon- or 4 fluid ounces, as a google of the smallest standard flask size claims to be- or 2 fluid ounces, or 8.

I want enough to drown a master, and i'm wondering how much i'd need to dilute it.

something like that, i mean.

77 is usually enough, if that doesn't work, make sure you have 777 around you just in case someone decides they don't want to die, and is it just drowning a Master or will there be more? We need more information! (And for the love of God make sure Veils suffers somehow too).

Really? That's going to be bad, I was grinding for scrap .-.

Sorry if it's a stupid question!

Is there a way to get to 7 respectable without Fate?

My alt needs 7 to get past a stage of his ambition; he has 4+ in Affiliation, 1+ in Clothing, and 1+ in Companion. That just makes 6, though. I've trolled the Bazaar and can't find anything else that would give +1, or an added bonus on my other slots (unless I'm missing something)?

It's irking me, as I didn't think Ambitions had fate-locked sections to them, so I'm assuming I'm missing something here . . . is there a way to get that final point? :-S

I am grinding Antique Mysteries in order to purchase reservation at Royal Beth, but my current way (Stealing them from Feducci) doesn't look like particularly efficient route. Any advices on that?

I have a somewhat....situational method of doing this. Firstly, it involved being a monster hunter, secondly, it involved having a boat, and lastly, it involves having access to the beast breeding storylets.

Effectively: Go out to zee, grab a seal with the monster hunter option (gives 1 antique mystery), take it back, either beat devils into a pulp for a bit or just tame the thing.

Taming gives passphrases, beating devils gives antique mysteries, theoretically the passphrases will get you the stuff faster, but will also require a few tomb colony favours.

Using this method, I got my reservation is abooouut three days of consistant effort.

I actually created a thread considering the efficiency of the method, and I believe it ended up in my favour because of the monster hunter bonus mystery. Just because, well, it takes just under 20 actions to make the zee voyage on an average run, and that gives you one, and then 8 actions later, you can have another 3 or therabouts. Averages out to about one mystery every 7 actions...which is actually some pretty decent epa all things considered.

Again though, very situational, and if you dont have all that pre-req...well, it's really, not a useful idea.

Otherwise you can donate what you find from archeological expeditions.

You'll probably want to do Thefts of a Particular Character in Spite to steal Brilliant Souls directly. The Gang of Hoodlums option is the best to prepare, but you can also use the POSI option if you don't want to get a Gang first (or if your Shadowy is low).
