Ok, I think I follow. If it were at "like", would you need to use "minor drain" three times to reach hate?No no, not a bug. I wasn't clear enough, you're right.
There are 5 stages of likeness, AND the fetish itself:
hate-dislike-neutral-like-love, and the fetish itself apart (which gives a special attack, unlike the 5 stages)
You can buy any stage, and let it grow with experience, or simply buy the fetish at once (which itself grows with xp too. I think it raises the lust gain in sex scenes the more levels it has).
Crafting also has stages:
major drain-minor drain, and minor boost-major boost.
So, with the example of Scarlett:
she has the "give anal" fetish (colored red, as she likes to give, not receive).
When crafting a kink potion, if you set the likeness for anal to "major drain", it will completely remove the full fetish.
this means she's actually set to "neutral" since she doesn't has any stage, and the chance of her using it still it's in play.
So it's better to set it to "minor drain", so it's tagged as "dislike" or "hate". She'll lose the full fetish itself, and gets tagged by the system, so it wouldn't use the action.
Also, I thought that buying the fetish itself (I only have experience with my own character so far) was just perma locking in "love" and granting an ability. So while I understand your example with regards to wanting to make a character dislike something, why would I ever choose to give a "minor boost" and increase the stage instead of outright granting the fetish?
EDIT: If the character actually has the fetish, does "minor drain" remove it as well as reducing its stage? Or do I need to use both major and minor drain to achieve that.
