Editing Fallen London Wiki:Patch Tracking

FBG regularly releases patches to the game. Some of them are just minor tweaks that require updates to one or a handful of pages; some of them are very large, requiring dozens or hundreds of updates. This page is for tracking progress on updating the wiki for larger patches.

* Lowered penalties to Fascinating for failing a check.
* Added small item rewards to each stage where they were lacking.
* Increased the amount of Persuasive experience given by each stage.

===Expeditions in the Forgotten Quarter===
* <s>Added new low-efficiency options to trade resources for Supplies. </s>
* These are not meant to be competitive in the longer term, but to offer lower-levelled players more options to spend items that they are likely to own.
* A benefactor now provides some free Expedition Supplies for the first run of each of the 'golden path' expeditions (a Thieves' Cache, the Shrine of the Deep Blue Heaven, and the Tomb of the Seven).
* Increased the amount of Watchful given out by completing the Tomb of the Seven.

===Investigations at the University===

** efficient of resource grind on guides needs adjustment
* Reduced the Investigating difficulty checks to correspond with new requirements.
* Added small item rewards to each stage where they were lacking.
* Increased the amount of Watchful given out by each stage.

===The Flit/Embroiled in the Wars of Illusion===
* Removed the storyline's reliance on rare successes while carrying out courier jobs in the Flit. While fun conceptually, it was an uneven and frustrating way of pacing progress. Now any successful trade-in of Seeking or Investigating in 'The Heights of Chicanery' will increment Embroiled in the Wars of Illusion.
** Guides needs adjustment 
* The rare successes on other actions remain and may occasionally offer a boost to progress, but starting this storyline should now be a lot more reliable.

===Mahogany Hall===
* <s>Reduced the amount of 'Tales of Mahogany Hall' required to set the 'Day of the Week'. Previously requirements ranged from 10-22; now they range from 8-14.</s>
** <s>14 cap on individual actions page need reduction </s>
** efficient of resource grind on guides needs adjustment
* Reduced the reduction of 'Tales of Mahogany Hall' when completing a day's performance.
* Increased the rewards of most performances to account for the action cost of setting the Day of the Week.
* Increased the amount of Shadowy experience given out by the final Glass/Shroud performance.

===Carving Out A Reputation at Court and Poet-Laureate===
* Reduced the Inspired requirements of shorter and longer works to 17 and 24 respectively.
* For symmetry and ease of understanding, these changes have been made to the Court in both stages: pre- and post-banishment.
* <s>Retuned rewards appropriately.</s>

===Port Carnelian===
* Reduced the number of Successful Terms as Governor required to host the Princess' state dinner and gain re-entry to Court from 5 to 2.
* Increased the Persuasive experience given out by hosting the Captivating Princess' state dinner. (Any encounter with the Princess is a sizeable learning experience.)

===Making Progress in the Labyrinth of Tigers===
* <s>Reduced ‘The Hunt Is On’ requirements to progress throughout the story component of the Labyrinth from 8 to 7.</s>
** <s> `The Hunt is On! test` lowered from 5 to 4 during progression </s>
* Increased amount of Dangerous given out by each stage.
