So clearly meetings at the carnival are a convenient way to get started on raising these, but where do you go from there? Opportunities in cards/stories seem incredibly scarce. Is the standard practice simply buying the faction items from the bazaar to convert favours into renown, or am I missing something?

That's it. You wait for opportunity cards to get favours, and you cash them in on faction items (yo uonly need one of each, they are reusable).

The only other renown increases are either one-off (iirc there are some in the making-your-name-in-*** stat trackers) and exceptional stories (and then again only in some rare ones).

Those are favours items, not renown. They were talking about direct renown increases, not ways to get favours.

True, but the final items are best-in-slot. And the text for each new level plus the texting for getting each final item, is nice.

No matter the items, the renown system was intend to be a (very) long term grind.

Wish you good luck and patience with it!

I know, and while I do have access to Flute Street now, it's not like I need their item for anything since I have the Contrarian's debating lessons. Still, it's kind of a completionist thing. Criminals and Constables 50 is going to take some more work, yeah. I'll probably hit the money goal first, but I think I'll want to choose the influence one just for the hell of it.

There's a couple of others:

- The 'connected' pet from watchmakers hill. You can select one suitable to your current renown goal.
- Counting the Days carousel. Two factions (Great game, and I _think_ bohemians?) can play that all the way through via storylet, provided certain conditions are also true (You need to have your soul and be a master thief). This can thus mean you grind mark-of-credit pages, which in turn can be surrendered for multiple favours. (I think 1 of each of docks/urchins/great game/bohemians) http://fallenlondon.wikia.com/wiki/Spending_Secrets_and_Counting_the_Days_%28Guide%29

Congratulations! That's no easy job, especially with all the holiday festivals in the meantime.
