Has anyone figured out how H combat is supposed to work? The fluff text mentions how MC can just essence drain the lewd monsters easily, but in actual combat you get one 20% HP attack off and then get permanently locked down till loss.
To follow up, I finally lucked out: apparently, you auto-win by essence drain once you've survived all the H-attacks the enemy got to throw at you. The problem being that subjecting yourself to H-attacks saddles you with enormous debuffs that pretty much guarantee getting knocked out if so much as one opponent randomly elects to mix in some normal attacks, so looks like lewding monsters to death solo is not viable, at least in early game.
Oh yeah, and it's possible to get to 0 HP, regenerate back up to some HP, win by essence drain and then still get sent to a loss scene afterwards because, presumably, the flag is raised once you hit 0 and remains so regardless of what happens next.
