Editing Raising Favours (Guide)

{{Audience|EarlyMYN|Evergreen=yes}}{{Wiki Note|See also [[Calling in Favours (Guide)]]}}

==Introduction==
This guide lists the best repeatable methods in London for raising Favours for characters whose major qualities are 100 or more.

==General Methods==
===Faction Opportunity Cards===
Each faction has its own Opportunity card which provides an option to gain 1 Favour.

Keep in mind, that [[Time, the Healer]] gives a single {{IL|Favourable Circumstance}} each week (up to 1), which can be used to force-draw any of the faction cards, effectively giving you a single chosen Favour! (Just remember to have the item needed to redeem it, as leaving that card will waste your Circumstances!)

===[[Connected Pet]] Cards===
Each faction (with the exception of [[Rubbery Men]]) has its own pet which provides an Opportunity card, with an option to gain 1 Favour. You can only have one Connected Pet at a time.

===[[Affiliation]] Cards===

While most Opportunity Cards from Items are based on its presence in your inventory, a handful of items will add a Card to the deck when ''equipped'', by granting a level of a unique quality which unlocks the card. Many of these items are Affiliations, and many of their associated Cards grant a Favour. Paying close attention to your Affiliation will let you add one more Favour source to your deck.

If you care about these cards, be mindful about what Outfit you're wearing when drawing! As they share a slot, you may only add one such Card to your deck at a time. You may also remove all such cards from your deck by equipping a different Affiliation (or none at all).

===[[Mrs Plenty's Carnival]]===
If your Renown is less than 5, you can expend two actions and a [[Carnival Ticket]] to gain 3 CP and 1 Favour. You will also gain some Renown at the same time, so this cannot be used forever even if you otherwise keep Renown low. This method can be used for all currently-converted factions.

[[The Big Top]]:
*Bohemian
*The Church
*Constables
*Hell
*Society
*The Tomb-Colonies
*The Widow
[[The Sideshows]]:
*Criminals
*The Docks
*The Duchess
*The Great Game
*Revolutionaries
*Rubbery Men
*Urchins

=== Static Actions and Storylets===
The fact that most Favours are gained through Opportunity Cards can frustrate players with bad luck or poor RNG optimization. Fortunately, each faction's Favours can be gained without the RNG's interference through fixed storylets.
* Grinding for {{IL|Notability}} and trading it for a {{IL|Favourable Circumstance}} can allow you to force-draw any standard contact card. One is received per week from [[Time, the Healer]], but getting more can be expensive depending on your Bizarre/Dreaded/Respectable rating.
* {{IL|Favours: Bohemians}} can be obtained when you [[Book a reading from an Unsavoury Poet]] on Thursday in [[Mahogany Hall]].
* {{IL|Favours: Constables}} or {{IL|Favours: The Church}} can be obtained reliably 3-at-a-time, by breeding the {{IL|Hound of Heaven}} at [[the Labyrinth of Tigers]]. This requires repeated Zee trips to capture {{IL|Plated Seal|Appearance=Plated Seals}}, and is recommended for {{IL|Monster-Hunter|Appearance=Monster-Hunters}} as they can get an extra reward from each trip.
* {{IL|Favours: Criminals}} can be obtained by [[New Newgate Prison - again!|going to prison]] and [[A better breed of shiv|trading]] one {{IL|Skyglass Knife}} per Favour. You can also [[Share what you've learned with a Second-Storey Man]] at the end of the Box of Intrigue carousel in [[Spite]].
* {{IL|Favours: Fingerkings}} can be obtained when you provide tribute at [[The Dome of Scales, Occupied]] consisting of a {{IL|Reprehensible Lizard}}, {{IL|Lucky Weasel}}, {{IL|Lucky Weasel}}, or {{IL|Seven-Throated Warbler}}.
* {{IL|Favours: Hell}} can be obtained by Heisting [[The Circumspect Envoy's Townhouse]], choosing anything except the set of wax tablets in [[The Envoy's Study (Storylet)|The Envoy's Study]], then [[Deliver the documents to the Brass Embassy]] afterwards. You can also [[Report to the Brass Embassy]] at the end of the [[Spying on Polythreme]] carousel in [[Polythreme Streets|Polythreme]].
* {{IL|Favours: Revolutionaries}} can be obtained when you [[Publish a seditious edition]] of your newspaper in [[Doubt Street]]. You can also [[Report to Revolutionaries]] at the end of the [[Spying on Polythreme]] carousel in [[Polythreme Streets|Polythreme]].
* {{IL|Favours: Rubbery Men}} can be obtained by choosing the Glim-Shard when you [[Gather the Riches of Bullbone Island]], then giving it to [[The Rubbery Glim-Trader]] in [[Wolfstack Docks]].
* {{IL|Favours: Society}} can be obtained by being [[Honoured with a State Dinner]] in [[Heartscross House|Port Carnelian]], or by [[Graduate the Gifted Student|graduating a Gifted Student]] from [[University_Laboratory_(Place)|your Laboratory.]]
* {{IL|Favours: The Docks}} can be obtained by completing the main carousel at [[Mutton Island]] and choosing to [[Rescue the crew]]. Parabolan nightmare-hunters can also gain Docks favours by [[Kill the Pinewood Shark|slaying Pinewood Sharks]].
* {{IL|Favours: The Great Game}} can be obtained with [[An exchange of favours 2|An exchange of favours]] at the end of the [[Doing Business in Wilmot's End]] carousel in [[Wilmot's End]].
* {{IL|Favours: Tomb-Colonies}} can be obtained when you [[Book a Decaying Humorist]] on Wednesday in [[Mahogany Hall]].
* {{IL|Favours: Urchins}} can be obtained when you [[Share what you've learned with a Cross]] at the end of the Box of Intrigue carousel in [[Spite]].
