A query on the subject of conversion

So, I was just wondering idly, does anyone know exactly how connected gets converted into renown / favours. Like, the actual ratio numbers? I have forty something urchins, and I want to know what that will translate towards in the update.

By good fortune, this has been covered in this week's questions thread!

how many Connection Urchins will I Need to bank for it to be converted in Renown Urchins 40 ? (based on previous Connection/renown convertion rate) edited by Flynneldariel on 11/11/2016
The formula is: Wanted_Renown * X + 21, where X was 5 for Rubbery and Docks and 4 for Tomb Colonies. edited by Chronos on 11/11/2016 Pretty sure it was 6 and 5? maybe I'm mistaken, but I know that some of the factions were only giving renown 50 for ~321. EDIT: In other words, they were not giving renown 50 for 300, or 271. I don't think any faction gave renown 50 for connected 221 yet, either. edited by Grenem on 11/11/2016

The first twenty-one levels of Connected get converted to Favors, at 3 levels of Connected per Favor. After that, levels of Connected are converted to levels of Renown at some fixed ratio that varies per faction. With factions we've seen so far, that ratio has been 5 or 6. If we assume the conversion ratio of 5, then 41 Connected: Urchins would convert to 7 favors and 4 Renown.
This is based on observation, FBG hasn't stated what the conversions are supposed to be like. They can change their mind if they want to.

Maybe the one time stories will give renown, while grindable things like mr. pages or temple club give out favours. But there's no way to convert between them. edited by suinicide on 11/13/2016
