Mr Chimes' Lost & Found

This is to help players determine how to spend their FATE and Confessions during Hallowmas.

A Note about Rankings[edit]

The nature of Hallowmas as a festival is that only some items are available for free any given year. It also has the largest inventory of any of the festivals. These two combined make it especially difficult to rank items, as Hallowmas equipment will often outclass other Hallowmas equipment, but it's likely neither will be free at the same time.

For the sake of my and yours, I'm making the assumption that you're paying FATE for these companions for ease of making comparisons. This does result in fairly crowded "low tiers", but as a rule of thumb, you can consider any equipment that's free one tier higher than it normally is.

Several Hallowmas companions can also be married; for simplicity's sake, these are given their own section.

Items Sorted by Stats[edit]

Note that these tables follow the following format: strict BIS is bold, shared BIS is italic, and stats which are neither will be in regular case.

Best In Slot[edit]

These items are the strict best in slot for one or more stats.

No Stats[edit]

These items are difficult to recommend based on stats, even for earlygame players.

Upgrade HALLOWMAS companion An option on The Law's Long Arm that costs E 1 and reduces Suspicion by 7 CP. Does not affect and is not affected by , and is significantly better than Official incompetence.

Hallowmas Spouses[edit]

Several Hallowmas companions can be married, and the final quest upgrades to these are often quite powerful. As each player can only have one Spouse[1], most of these options are not of interest to most players, and so are discussed here instead.
