    I'm rather annoyed that I handed in masking items and was told I'd get a card to redeem it, but still haven't gotten that card

    that is exceptionally bad luck; i've gotten it 5 times :(

    Whoopsie I ate something I shouldn't have and got Unaccountably Peckish

    So then I looked up how to get rid of it

    They neglected to mention it would give me 1 point of Seeking

    Then I read the next card wrong and instead of backing out I got another point.

    I got it correct on the next action though.

    Similar here, I thought I kept the tower of eyes card, went to buy the last things on the list for an orphanage, came back and realized I had accidentally discarded it. That was about 2 nights ago

    I didn't quite realise what a trek I was in for with Flute St and set off with some menaces unwisely high. I made it there okay, but if I make it out again without going either mad or dead it'll be quite an achievement. Not letting me use menace reducing items while out there was a bit of a surprise.

    Edit: Boo! Made it to the end and then lost on gaining a fossil because I already have one. Robbed!

    The Feast has ended and I have taken to the Zee for the first time. Seal, here I come!

    Zailing is slow though! And I'm going to have to do this, what, five times if I want to fill out my monster roster? More if I'm collecting cellars of wine?

  • mrpakumrpaku Registered User regular
    Wait, how can you collect cellars of wine while you're out zailing? I've been looking for good sources since moving on from being an author

    It'll be something I can check into after I get back from wrecking my personal qualities in Venderbight while waiting to draw the Tomb-Lion card

    I think he's saying the Hound of Heaven to Cellars conversion requires more zailing for monster finding.

  • AersienAersien Registered User regular
    That's what I mean.

    I'm not at all sure it's an efficient source of wine, but at least it's reliable.

    So I was composing at Court for the last few days but the Veteran Privy Councilor wants me to write that scandalous thing that will get me exiled. If I decline - I still have so many Correspondence symphonies left to write - can I accept later?

    The Voluminous Library opportunity card is disappointing

    Seems like the research option is only just barely worth spending an action

    Aw man, back in prison after failing my first heist. Is it me or is working up the Shadowy side of the pre-POSI content by far the most difficult?

    MhCw7nZ.gif
  • AersienAersien Registered User regular
    A couple of tricks:

    1. If you just need Shadowy you can sell Casing for it. Not the most efficient but helpful before you can afford Inside Information to have a chance to succeed at heists.

    2. If you fail a heist (or end up with another menace at or above 8) you get told that your menace is very high. Before hitting "Onward" and going to prison or wherever you can go to the Myself tab and do two important things: switch to equipment that lowers the relevance menace (workman's clothes) and use a menace reduce (instant ablution solution). As long as you have those ready in hand you don't actually need to suffer arrest.

    Just be sure to spend some quality time getting friends to take the blame or hassling constables in Spire before changing clothes again.

    I like how, at least on mobile, the nested spoilers make each image gradually smaller, as you continue through them.

    Is there anything else to do on Flute Street once you've lured your Rubbery Hound?

    The trip down was a good time, and the lore was really fun for a read the first time through, but nothing sinks my ongoing interest faster than making me ride the same carousel for a full day at a time to eke out solitary rewards (looking at you, Wilmot's End)

  • Jam WarriorJam Warrior Registered User regular
    You could pay the 100 fate option to give you the option to have tentacle sex a limited number of times? Otherwise I don't think so.

    The only other things useful in Flute Street if that it is the only place you can reliably farm rubbery man favors. Also, once you hit forty rubbery renown you should stop by again for a reward.

    But that's mostly it. Lore and minor rewards. And maybe a place to hide when the sixth city comes crashing down. Personally I am going to try to be in Parabola when that happens...
