Provide Master-Classes in Etiquette is a carousel in Mahogany Hall in which you take on either a Devil, Clayman, Rubberyman or Elegant lady as a pupil, for a payout in Nevercold Brass Sliver, Shards of Glim, Nodule of Deep Amber or many different things respectively. You need to raise their Pygmalion and then eventually graduate them.
The Basics[edit]
Picking your Pupil[edit]
Initially you will have to pick one of 4 options, though 2 are fate locked.
Pupil | Average Payout | Average Actions to Complete | Average EpA |
---|---|---|---|
Take on a Louche Devil | 4780 x Nevercold Brass Sliver | 37.4 | 1.28 |
Take on a Clay Pupil | 3982 x Shards of Glim | 31.7 | 1.261 |
Take on a Rubbery Pupil FATE |
|
45 [2] | 1.45[1][2] |
Take on an Elegant Lady FATE |
|
44 | 1.39 |
Starting Your Training[edit]
Initially you will have 6 options, of which the first three will raise Pygmalion by +2 CP while the last 3 will raise it by +3 CP. These will all be Persuasive 97-111 challenges. Unless you can 100% one higher than it, the 4th option will be your best choice. This does not hold true on the fate options, for which all 6 options only provide +2 anyways. Additionally the fate choices require some Pygmalion in order to unlock all of the basic choices.
Pygmalion Options[edit]
As you progress, you will unlock various options that allow you to take Pygmalion challenges. Unless you can 100% it, these challenges are a bad bet, because failing them will reduce your Pymalion level, and take you longer to reach the final payout.
Payout[edit]
At Pygmalion 12, you will unlock the payout option. Take it immediately. You may have to attempt several times after building up Pygmalion once again.
Conclusion[edit]
This is not a particularly profitable grind.
However it is worth spending a single action to Take on a Clay Pupil, as this gives you Educating Lyme 1, a useful quality when starting a newspaper (saving you 1 x Strong-Backed Labour).
Louche Devil[edit]
Pays out an average payout of 4780 x Nevercold Brass Sliver in 37.4 actions, for 1.27 per action.
