The Noman/Noman Cost

From Fallen London Wiki (Staging)

Note: The values on this page are based on 2022 and accurate if the underlying equations have not been adjusted. The values update around 09:00 UT, so up until 08:59 am it still uses "yesterday's" cost. As ever, beware waiting until the last minute.

The Noman requires:

  • 3x
  • 3x
  • 1x (required, but not consumed)
  • 4-15 , as indicated in the "Taste of Lacre" column below.
  • Between 0 - 6250 or 1 x as indicated in the "Amber Required" column below.

The Noman always consumes, if available:

  • 3x
  • 3x
  • -2 CP of every quirk (consumed, but not required)
  • 4-15 , as indicated in the "Taste of Lacre" column below.
  • Between 0 - 5833 or 1 x as indicated in the "Amber Consumed" column below. Note this is usually different than the requirement, and you can still create a Noman if you only have the required amount but less than the consumed amount.

  1. Between the 19th and 24th, you can avoid paying amber if you don't have any Pulsating Amber. It still requires the Deep Amber, but won't consume it!
  2. Originally in 2022, the Taste of Lacre requirement kept increasing beyond 15, but was later brought down and capped at 15 to allow players to build a "last minute" Noman. The cap will likely remain, but this is the day to keep an eye on.
  3. Nomans were formerly purchasable up until the 28th of January, but in 2023 this was changed to "The Last Friday of January", which is January 26 this year.
  4. The cost remains at 15 Lacre and 1 Pulsating Amber until the following January 4th, but this is effectively meaningless since the World Quality only allows a new Noman on the dates above.
