yeah that quest is a noob trap. even the rewards has a trap in it, said pricetag only shows up later in an event and is rather mild... if your like me and went fuck this noise the entire quest is vulnerble to save scumming. which given they trap you inside and the traps have very stacked odds and can even tf on a success in some cases i dont mind using, the boss even has special lines if he fails to convert anyone to his side.Not sure if I did anything wrong but was playing on the easiest difficultly did the Elf maid mansion mission. It was my MC and my companion vs the boss and with a 4 level difference I couldn't even hit him once on the easiest diffculty so I just said this game isn't for me and deleted it. Maybe you need to weaken him maybe I needed to be a higher level but the fact I repeatedly missed him just made me quit the game.
speaking of that boss, its difficulty spikes the more maids there are. i used the cat thieves from town to beat him down, that and my main was in fawn form so i had some support.
aside, seriously would like some alt art for events once this games done, no not saying that soley for deer butt but i thought something like that would be nice.
