That works for most summons including the top tier summons which makes it really great. Using it you can perpetually keep that edge/winter summon out to keep killing things and carrying expeditions by herself too.

While the latter two are true, if one is going to get the party started, one needs some dranks, and the Thunderskin's history suggests that our large, rotund, ever-dancing son is not unfamiliar with the lures of the Grail.

Hope you found Frangiclave~~~ I never did find Frangiclave but after mucking around for a few more hours I eventually realized that I did have Theresa and the 12-point lantern consumable (and had had them for a long rear end time), and then realized OH *that* goes in the "desire" slot, so, whurp, game won, 'lightenment I may try another run as Forge/ Winter or I may wait for more updates to come out, I'll see.

Well, poo poo, I hit an inflection point in the game where I was able to sacrifice influences and use them up to summon all sorts of freaky demons to do my battles for me, and everything was going just fine, then I realize I'm at 2 fascination and the fascination thing WON'T GO AWAY. So I try to deliberately induce some dread-nightmares (I'd already ascended the third mark, no more free restlessness) by doing a little Sleep of Reason, but instead I roll up a Fascination and fuuuuck I'm dead. what a great goddamn game. Now that I know how to use demons and poo poo it got a lot more fun.

Keep them for a while, you'll know when you don't need lower level lores anymore. Specifically, you'll need a level 6 lore to pass the Stag Door. The needed lore will vary from game to game..

Pretty much. Your best bet if you're still early game is to hit the explore verb non-stop until the 5 edge guy pops up and then murder the investigator. Be prepared for A notoriety and a dead body that will decay into notoriety if you can't find a way to remove it though.

As far as I know the game will just infinitely throw investigators at you with the unique qualifier that you can't have two of the same person at the same time. The game will toss tons of Weary Detectives at you if you intentionally mess around and try to bait as many investigators to appear as possible over time though as you keep killing them.

Because of this game, steam is now recommending me nothing but indie games tagged "Atmospheric", "Story-Rich", "Horror", "Lovecraftian" and/or "Card Game". Thanks, Kennedy.

I was wondering if I could manually activate it or it's always timed. Also to move past that Enlightenment Ascention's 7th mark I need to get a ritual of 36 Lantern intensity?!?!? What the hell, I'm going to be researching poo poo for a long rear end time at this rate. Ugh. Would this have been easier if I were a lantern cult?

The main benefit from that is that you could have a Seer follower (10 lantern) to help with the ritual instead of the 5 lantern disciple you now have. Your best bet is probably to find one of those 15 lantern influence cards in Mansus and combo that with a high-lantern summon in a rite that accepts those.

If you have already completed the game once the way the designer intended, and/or do not give a fuuuuuck about what the designer intended, may i suggest the thing i made? http://www.mediafire.com/file/93mf6pg9xfurg9k/recipes.rar steam>steamapps>common>cultist simulator>cultistsimulator_data>streamingassets>content>core, replace the 'recipes' folder with this one, and if the game is running, turn it off and back on again. Also speeds up expeditions to... probably too fast.
