How do I find papas old cult

so 3 years ago someone said this:
"After the first upgrade of "Papa's Legacy" (patron), the game tells you to renovate your estate. According to Harold, you put Legacy, Estate and some cash into the Explore Verb. However, the slot for the estate seems to only accept the already renovated variant, "Oppulent Estate". Is this intentional?"

they made the same mistake I did, by doing things in the wrong order. The order is this:
- talk to Harold about the estate
- when it's time to make the decision, put Papa's Legacy in there.
- 'My Estate?' then becomes 'opulent estate'
- THEN you find a benefactor.

if you do the benefactor first, Papa's Legacy will no longer be usable for the purpose of keeping the house, because for some reason the game doesn't like if the card has 2 Marks of Opulence.
(@noicest dungeon might be a good idea to fix this.)


so yeah good luck y'all. hope this helps.

So I've been playing a save with this mod for about... 6 hours now, and I genuinely have no idea what to do.
I throw a lavish party every chance I get, and nothing comes of it besides a little money, a socialite (slave), or a bit of notoriety. I do have Algernon, and he pays out a bit of cash here and there, but beyond that I have no idea.

The reporters show up, I send some a 'heart-felt message' out as per the prompt, and nothing. At this point I've battled two hunters, I'm combing the secrets of hundreds of books, I have plenty of cash from a cushy CEO job (or HAD a CEO job, anyway) and I've been balancing about 20 mystique from being an artist, yet still; no idea what to do with this mod.

What are these 'marks of opulence', how do I connect with Papa's friends, and - if need be - what do I do with these little bonuses that pop up for 0.9 seconds, vanishing almost immediately upon procurement?

pls help i have no idea what to do

Can someone please explain to me what the 'famous' mark does? I'm playing as a physician and not papas legacy so if they are going to betray me eventually I'd like to know before I raise any of them into my cult.

I'm not sure how to access Papa's old cult. I think that I am supposed to talk to Harold about Papa's Legacy, but the start button is grayed out.

Should the Season of Attention still spawn with other legacies?

I sold the estate early on. Is that game over? It didn't mention it, and I thought that's how I should advance the story.

@EVA-001 Bloodworth, Anthony and Artois are the three that can upgrade your temptation: grandeur. However, even if you turn all three into patrons you can still pursue Papa's Legacy.

I can't figure out who tot talk to to upgrade my temptation. I turned Bloodworth into a patron, was this a save-breaking mistake?

@Vazre, The Alchemist Yes, this is one of the many issues of having High Society enabled while you are playing another mod. It's not my highest priority at the moment, but I may fix it in the future. For now, I would just recommend turning it off when you're finished with it.

Papa's old cult members are appearing in non-BYT legacies, and are aspected as such. Not a huge issue, but something to bring up.

@Noicest Dungeon I did have A Season of Suspicions and Honorable Exaltations enabled, which hadn't caused issues previously. I'll try to get some time to start a new HS game without any mods and see if the issue persists.

@Princess Frempong Sorry for the late reply, but I was rather busy at the moment. I'll look into it and get back to you, Do you have any other mods enabled?

Started a new game and maybe it's something I'm forgetting on my end, maybe it's an issue with the recent patch, but the Explore verb will no longer take Papa's Legacy, meaning you can't upgrade the estate.

@Princess Frempong talking to Harold about it should tell you more about what you need to do, I believe. Yes, you need to upgrade the estate.

I'm attempting to study with Papa's Legacy at Marks of Opulence 2. The Estate slot says it needs something with Aspect: Opulent Estate. I have the Opulent Estate but it has the Aspect: Hedonism's Locus and the slot won't accept it. Is something wrong, or do I need to upgrade the estate even further?

Not so much yet, but I suppose that's just my playstyle to do too much early game stuff. I'll stick with it, it's very promising so far. I'm really interested where it's going compared to the vanilla version of the archetype that was such a let down I quit after I realized the intro was the only thing different about it.

@Sturm Krahe Have you experimented with the Papa's Legacy route?

Boy do I miss having a library headquarters. The ability to throw parties is neat but refining lore is a serious pain.

This legacy was the first mod I tried, and granted I botched my run immediately by selling the estate (greed consumed me), but I persisted and achieved a minor grail victory all the same. The flavour text is incredibly immersive, and Papa's benefactors blend in so well with the lore that I'm hard pressed not to consider High Society borderline canonical. Thank you so much for making it! I could tell that you put a lot of work into this legacy revamp, and I'm looking forward to following its proper path next time.

@Hiddendream Tried it out on my end, and it does work. You need to ignore the slot and start up the recipe as normal. If you've done the temptation: grandeur talk with one of them, you should have a base game ascension

@Hiddendream: Premilinary question- do you have any other mods enabled?

I'm a little confused on how you trigger the Romances with the various mod added companions, the methods from the base game don't seem to work, as the only thing it's possible to talk to Artois or Lord Bloodworth about is Temptation: Grandeur

@Techno_Mage turn this mod off while playing other mods. I had the same issue with some exile mods as well where i'd get extra cards I couldn't use/didn't need.

@Techno_Mage I wouldn't recommend playing High Society with any other mods enabled. As it is rn, Papa's old Acquaintances are appended to the acquaintances deck, which means you'll get it every time you draw from it

I'm getting people with Papa's old aquaintances while running other legacies, is this suppose to happen? I'm running the Veteran Mod one if that helps at all

@AFLACK (New Mommy) since I'm pretty sure FASTER rewrites every recipe, it's going to be incredibly incompatible. I might be wrong, but that might be the issue.

Hey hey! I'm running into a few problems here, and I only have two mods enabled. The first mod is this one, the second mod is the FASTER mod and the third is the one that changes the colors of cards.

So basically I'm not getting any cult to speak to my acquantances with. When the season of attention comes by, it immediately dissapears. Lastly, I'm not getting temptation:grandeur. I'm only getting temptation:sensation.

Does anyone have any ideas?

It would be rly helpful!

oh im dumb thanks lol

@The Infomaniac It is!

@AFLACK (New Mommy) That's part of the design. You have a new HQ (unless you've sold it) in the form of the estate

Is this compatible with achieve integrations?

Hey guys, just a quick question. Does anyone else's temp headquarters just not spawn?

@NinjaTuna Thank you for the feedback! I'm glad you enjoyed it. Also, as far as bugs go, that's pretty circumstantial, and not particularly useful since there's no reason to use anything but the job you get from the ascension

@SMZapata Every new follower (except for Cuthbert, who has no romance path) can be romanced (the base game desires are gained via Temptation: Grandeur). All romanceable followers also have an ever after ending, yes.

Had a lot of fun with this! I'm curious if it's possible to do an ascension with the acquaintance that joined your cult, though? Does this add an ending in addition to being happy with your throphy, spouse, and etc.?

This is an amazing mod! I have now ascended twice. Once in worldly splendour, once in everlasting crimson!

Thank you for this mod. It was very fun contending high society and take my place among elevated.

Also, it turns out that if you are in the process of murdering your employer while buying their company, you get to keep you position and even become part of the board that you now technically also own.

@Noicest Dungeon I thought I had tried that but it turns out I didn't! Thank you very much and sorry about that ^-^;

@2Plover In the selling the estate event, there's an option to keep it. You just have to put in the Papa's Legacy card, and My Estate? will turn into an Opulent Estate

Just started playing and have tried a few runs. Definitely fun but I'm running into an issue. I feel I am entirely at fault and may just be missing something, but I have no clue how to upgrade the estate. When in study it tells me I need Opulent Estate. When I go to Explore, the estate part where I assume the estate is meant to be says it is also needing the Opulent Estate. When I talk to Harold, he tells me to sell it.

Am I missing something? Am I meant to sell the estate and find it again later? Sorry if this is a dumb question but I feel really stumped.

@WaywardWarlord Papa's old cult members cannot be turned into benefactors if they've already been recruited. If they're at their acquaintance level, you can slot in your Papa's Legacy card (has to be at first level) to turn them into a benefactor. This will make it impossible to recruit them.

Love the content! The writing is great and the new characters are super fun. The only trouble I am having is that I can't make one of the new characters (Papa's old cult members) a benefactor. Is there something I haven't read or is this a new bug?

Alright, good to know

@Noicest Dungeon I just finished a run using your Mod and CS Expanded. It worked alright, and I didn't notice any bugs. So it should be compatible as far as I have experienced

@Gentleman Destroyer Most likely not, I don't think. Isn't Cultist Simulator Expanded also broken on its own? I've heard you can't learn languages in it

Is Cultist Simulator expanded compatible with this?

@NoicerstDungeon The mod in itself is perfect. It's balanced, has a good story behind it, the enemy is a lesser Long but can still give you many problems if you're not good at handling this stuff. Only thing I can think of is trying to increase the compatibility of the mod with other mods. But, then again, I'm not a modder and I don't know how difficult that can be. The only idea I have is that you could, with the help of other modders, sort of create one large modpack. I know you're all on Discord so from that point of view it wouldn't be difficult. But, as I said, I'm no modder, I only have ideas for mods (if you'll ever be interested I can share them, maybe collaborate. I don't have time to learn to mod, but I can still write).
So... keep going like this! Your work in incredible! Same goes for your Phisician overhaul mod! It's so interesting!

@zodiac36gold Any thoughts on High Society that you'd like to share? I love feedback

Oh, okay. In the end I still managed to finish it. Great mod! I just had to cheat my way out of the bug -cause I feared that, if I removed the other character mods, the game would give me error because the save file contained them but the mod no longer supported them. So instead I used he consolle.
It was a very interesting experience and I'm now playing your "Physician Overhaul". I'm gonna turn off "High Society" to make sure that things don't get mixed up.
