So along with the winter content has come a few changes in the game's economics. Item prices have changed, houses can now be bought at the bazaar. These have generally happened quietly, so if you notice one then mention it. For example, the rubbery man that constantly harasses anyone with a warm amber now offers trembling amber...for 100 warm amber!

    So if you murder enough rubbery men, they'll happily take the amber you stole off their corpses in exchange for more valuable amber? :p

    You can also get one from really low level packages of random. At least one of them (Planning a robbery with your gang) gives them REALLY OFTEN

    After I engaged cat-catching and madness inducing trips to the Mirror Marches and the Forgotten Quarter, I'm slightly sad to find out that I need to grind for Glim and Romantic Notions now for the last two houses. Oh well, I guess I'll just keep these Tales of Terror and Journal of Infamy handy for future stuff.

    You can get 45 Prisoner's Honey per action in the Empress' Court through the Corruption of Youth. It doesn't result in any menaces upon failure either, which is nice.

    I have taken note of the various plot progressions and why one might want to post-pone them. Why, I am delaying my University investigations indefinitely. We'll see what happens on that front once I'm done preparing for the construction of a zubmarine. I like possibilities. They feel like freedom.

Why, I remember paying for the Rooftop Shack by getting Romantic Notions from proposing an alliance between a Devil and a Child. I needed the Mysteries of the Elder Continent as well, to pay for a Cottage by the Observatory. Things have just become much less complicated now, it seems. wink

    I think the change in ways to purchase lodgings is a shame. It all seems a lot less atmospheric now.

    I think Gillsing is looking for methods for non-POSI.

    Indeed.

    And I have only dipped my toes into the Empress' Court, so I didn't try corrupting any youth, worthwhile as that seems to be. smile

    Thanks Gillsing, Glim is easy to come by at the Glim Assayer's office so that's not a problem. The Romantic notion on the other hand is another story. I'll probably lower my shadowy with items for a chance to rob the honey den again. The Cheesemonger gives me some honey but she rarely visits.

    The new way of buying lodgings at the bazaar kind of makes me melancholic as my character, if I were to stay in character all times, is highly distrustful of the bazaar's existence. Though none of the connections so far show any signs of anybody having grand plans to destroy currency from the world. Maybe after I hit PoSI the option will be there to pursue.

    This is, I think, an interesting point on the world of the game: I think there's deliberation to this. The Bazaar is everywhere.

    The best source of prisoner's honey is "Doing the decent thing" at "Unfinished business in veilgarden". It gives you 50 per action and even stolen kisses+80 honey as a rare success sometimes.

    No cats or investigations of photographers please.
    Same goes for Sparring,Loitering,Suppers and Games of chess! Sure I'll accept them occasionaly but I wont help you grind them most of the time.
    But calling cards are highly welcome! (Got too much influence for cards at the moment. Sorry!)

    Glim is easy enough to find, but I've never found a good source of either "Drop of Prisoner's Honey" or "Romantic Notion". There are ways to get them, but only in smaller quantities. Even the usually generous Bundles of Oddities only give 10 x Drop of Prisoner's Honey, which doesn't quite compare to the value of the Warm Amber and Primordial Shrieks that come in similar bundles. Perhaps the fastest method for this would be to build Connected: Bohemian and "Call in favours at the Shuttered Palace" for Drop of Prisoner's Honey and then turn those into Romantic Notions? Still not a fast method, though.

    Apparently there are better sources of Romantic Notions for PoSI, but for me the Handsome Townhouse came up before PoSI was an option.
