Wiki note: Given this action's Rare Success chance of 1%, this is on average a net loss of 0.9 actions (assuming a 100% chance of success and valuing at +10 actions). Additionally, the locking of this card at makes it quite difficult, if not impossible, to succeed 100% without FATE or RETIRED items (see Stat-reducing items and Persuasive Items), further increasing the net action loss incurred by playing this action.
This option is still better than most cards and storylets, but will not result in a net gain of actions as it might appear to. One advantage of , however, is that you do not need to use it immediately, allowing you to bank actions to redeem at a later time, even if it is a net loss of actions overall.
