Watchmaker's Hill

  • 4 for The dusty book, costing x 25-32 Exploits depending on how many Gains you have in the four main stats. Averages between 6.5 and 8.25 actions per map. More if other rewards are upconverted See Hearts' Game (Guide) for more information.

The City of the Tracklayers

  • FATE Sub-Basement unlocks a card with an option to cash out Hinterland Prosperity for 5 maps on failing a check. With maxed Hinterland Efficiency, this comes out to ~2.6 actions per map. Note that even with a Weasel of Woe there is a 1% chance of getting Sap of the Cedar at the Crossroads instead, but the impact is negligible (and profitable!).

  • Upconverting from Puzzling Maps; with Maps upconverted from Underclay glim, this takes about 30 actions and 1 x Favours: The Docks.
  • Buying Map Scraps from the Rat Market, using an efficient Rat Market grind like Tiger Tribute likely takes many fewer actions, as the EPA is higher, and you start one tier higher.
