Bone Market Recipes 07/04/26 Menacing Insects, Colourful Phantacist, Insectoid Diplomat

:Letter: Player Guide

Gladiolus and phalanges Bone Brothers and Scaphoid Sisters, the time has come when the Zoomania and Fashion of the bone market have changed.

Menacing Insects is a great week for late game people, using up your glim encrusted carapaces and your holy thighs(and dump some terror bird wings or tentacles). For early game it is not as great. There are no 8 limbed skeletons till you get to firmament so you can't use wings and there are no legs with menace. Most weeks you can get away with that by using tails but Insects don't have tails :(. The colourful phantacist is the best occasional buyer but still pretty niche. Insectoid diplomat is terrible, unless you have a lot of Ivory Femurs you want to waste/use.

Talking of Ivory Femurs, here is a bit of news I added to last weeks post, it was late in the week so I am reposting it in case anyone missed it.

Big News!

They have removed the action to enter the emperess' court which is amazing news for people who are progressing the early game and for those who want to get Poet Laureate. It's even better news if you have access to Risen Burgundy and the Augmented Electrostatic Device from Estival.

Now you can constantly have a novel running and, whenever you are going to Parabola, you can go into the court and use Hedonism in the Neath to top your Hedonism up to 10. I did the maths on only getting hedonism that way and it is about 5 epa. You publish a gothic novel, which pays out in Moon Pearls but all fascinating CP, whenever your inspired hits 24. Facinating can be cashed out with the action "seduce and alluring masquer" on a card in Burgundy at just over 1 echo per point. Whenever you hit 10 hedonism you go to Parabola and grab 4 apples. You then turn these into Ivory Femurs with the Bohemian Sculptress at the Bone Market. (You can then either use those in a skeleton or you can use them to make a skeleton for the card "A Public Lecture" to get a leviathan frame.)

A more efficient method is to get your hedonism from the handsome townhouse lodgings card and just top up to 10 whenever you are going to Parabola. Completing and restarting novels as needed. The lodgings card gives 1 favour on average, so it is worth playing without the Hedonism.

The Bonedex

The Bonedex is where I store all of the bone posts and some guides on how to get going with the bone market yourself. If you need to know something paleontological it is your one stop shop(except for the wiki, and other guides, and learning things for yourself. ;)

As always, if you see any mistakes, have any suggestions, spot something I might have missed or just want to say hello, leave a comment on here, or on the guide or post in question! Feel free to ask femur information if anything is confusing, by asking you help the guides improve and the whole community.

Have a humerus week! Bone Person out!
