[Poll] Favours/Renown VS Connected Messages in this topic - RSS

How do you feel about Favours/Renown as compared to Connected?

It's much better. My love will be forever etched on the skin of the Bazaar:17
It's an improvement. But I have complaints:64
I am neutral. I sit astride the fence of history.:22
I preferred Connected. But I don't hate it.:25
I hate it with the burning passion of a thousand suns:14

Ah, the Velocipede card is what I was missing - I knew there must be something. Thank you!

I don't have Devils to 10 yet, so I'm having issues grinding souls for the next few days. Then, I'm sure I'll be swimming in favourable constables.


What ho, they've made the velocipede card not a horrid thing? Wondrous news!
I picture a Zee not with water, but crammed with constables for thee then!

Maniacally,

Okay, there's something...

Really need to change those few that they changed from connected required, to favours required, to either convert way more at a time, include way better items, or change over to requiring renoun.

I am getting peeved at not being able to continue towards "Footstep" by not having enough urchin favours to convert up to screams.

quick but important question.

If this was your first time, starting from scratch, how long would it take you to grind 40 renoun?



As a stat-capped POSI, it took me about 3 months to grind Rubbery 40 from 0. I only used the rubbery faction card and the Rubbery Entrepreneur from the Polite Invitation party.

Was it "worth it"? Nearly impossible to say.


It only took about a month for me to get Docks to 40 using:

Faction Card
Connected Pet Card
Mayor Card
A Fate-locked Card
The Chandleress at Watchmaker's Hill
(Did not use finishing school.)

I must say that getting 3 factions from 0 to 40 was a nice challenge specially that i was doing them all at the same time!
Artful, thing is, grinding favours/renown is strictly tied to the number of cards a player can draw per day. If you're somehow able to draw about 100 of them per day (even w/o the Fate one), it's not really hard to reach high levels. But for someone who probably draws 30-40 per day, well, it takes 2-3 times more.

Still, can't wait to see how all the actions and cards will end up after the conversions are done! I wonder if FBG will end up converting the last 5 ones (the two academic, Widow, Duchess and the Masters)... Big Grin

Agreed, it is a slog.

Someone had asked how long it takes to go from 0 to 40, and I provided my experience of a range of 1 month to 3, depending on the number of Favour sources available (2 to 5).
