Library Keys can be spent for 15 progress via [[A Locked Gate]] and [[Unlock the cart]], but are difficult to obtain consistently. Not only does [[Try to lift one of its keys|stealing keys from the Librarians]] have a difficult check, it has a {{IL|Noises in the Library|Appearance=Noises}} requirement. There are only two ways to gain Noises without wasting an action not making progress: intentionally failing to [[Tie a rope to the railing and descend|descend]] from [[A Dead End?]], or drawing [[A Map Room]] and [[Get a lead from the Cartographer|consulting the Cartographer]] ({{FontFate}}-locked). If your stats are high enough to risk stealing keys, it's worth using one of these to gain Noises early in each run. | Library Keys can be spent for 15 progress via [[A Locked Gate]] and [[Unlock the cart]], but are difficult to obtain consistently.

However, this assumes that anticandles will eventually be sellable. Using the Clamorous Cartographer's book adds a couple of mediocre cards to the deck, lowing the EPA to 6.1, but only gives resources that are sellable for echoes. This simulation can be downloaded here for those sufficiently skilled with Python: [https://github.com/cngraf/fl_popemobile/blob/main/simulations/stacks2.py Monte Carlo Simulations for The Stacks] |
