If I'm not mistaken, the buffs to the Thoroughly Cowed Pony and the Shrine to St. Joshua now mean that the hard cap for Renown: Criminals for players without the Shadowy exceptional specialization is now 49. I'm much more comfortable with being stuck at 49 than with being stuck at 47. Is that right? What about the cap for Dangerous connections like the Docks? Is that still at 47, or is there fate-locked equipment that can get you higher now?

Shadowy should be capped at 50 now.
Cool as Ice (+30)
Ratskin Suit (+6)
Pair of Lenguals (+10)
What Might Be a Thunderbolt (+10)
The Place Where They Bury the Bodies (+10)
Laconic Prodigy (+10)
Gang of Hoodlums (+1)
Thoroughly Cowed Pony (+6)
Shrine to Saint Joshua (+9)
Espoused To (+1)
The Young Stags' Club (+1)
for a total of *exactly* 94.
Dangerous is *possible* to get Renown 50 (294 in the stat) without specializing, but it requires doing a certain thing in Flint and having an appropriate Destiny (or doing Flint more than once).
Persuasive is now the only one that requires a specialization to hit +94.

Ah, thanks, Jeremy. Unfortunately, that means I'm stuck at 49. Obtaining a Gang of Hoodlums requires me to do things my character can't condone.

You can also consider getting a Shadowy Destiny, if it's in character. Backstage, for instance.

Good day,
Sadly being unable to tolerate reading all posts I apologise in advance if I repeat what has been already said. Yet:
-Can the home conforts not all provide at least a point in bizarre/dreaded/respectable? Especially when PosI finds themselves so thoroughly enmeshed in Making Waves, I find it despicable having spent time, echoes and effort in purchasing for myself a most impressively dark gymnasium only to be rewarded with a measly one point in Dangerous. Or similarly, woeing my spouse giving such little back.
Wishfully,
Arden

No, not every home comfort can increase BDR; if that requirement held, the number of home comforts that could be created would be severely limited. However (and to avoid a different limitation), home comforts have recently had their stats boosted, as this very thread discusses. Should you examine it, you would find that your basalt gymnasium now increases Dangerous by +3.

The Great Game Home Comfort does not appear to provide any BDR. Considering that the other Renown 40 items do, this is a dissatisfying exception.
P.S. Did anyone notice that Absintheuse may have made a pun in the second paragraph?

Makes sense. The Shrine to St Joshua is only +1 Watchful better and we'll likely be getting more Renown Home Comforts that will make its Shadowy superiority similarly small. If the Renown Home Comforts could give BDR too, being a Midnighter would be even less useful.

Well that is a pleasant revelation Siankan, much obliged!
Enlightened,
