Having problems with the 'Hot Stripper Assassin Action!' quest.

Post by Lili.Ex »

So I've recently taken on the quest "Hot Stipper Assassin Action!" for Velvet, and I've managed to lure away all the dancers and patrons so I can be alone with Chastity. Now the walkthough says that you can take her down quietly by feeding on her to death, and this is where my problem is. Every time I try to feed on her, I keep failing. No matter how close I get to her or how much I beat her up, I get the message that says I was unsuccessful in trying to feed on her.
I tried reloading an older save before taking on the quest, but I still can't seem to feed on her. What should I do?

P.S: I have the latest Unofficial Plus Patch.

I just killed her, and the quest completed just fine, no repurcussions. I assume you have sufficiently high brawl/melee skills? IIRC, feeding was dependant on those.

I do believe you are right, Gawain. I think that Brawl, or Melee, is helpful with feeding, all around. But is really helpful with the mission. So, Lili, you should build those up as you go along.

Feeding is dependant on Brawl/Melee? I did not know that. I learned new things (I mostly used firearms and stealth :P )!

Thanks for your help. OuO d

Hello, this might be the issue with that walkthrough. That's not the walkthrough that came in Extras folder with Unofficial Patch, right?

I believe that in U.P. plus, Chastity is set to be unfeedable NPC long time ago - because she was too easy to defeat if you just walk to her and just feed to death... and/or because she is a hunter and is more aware and prepared than humans... She has a sword with her in strip booth for Christ's sake! :D

Since feed to death on Chastity is unavailable, "quiet" and "noise" ways of killing Chastity(that affects VV responses later) are related to these:
- are you using melee("quiet") or firearms(probably all "noise"?) weapons;
- was someone near enough that he heard(saw?) combat;
- did you hurt or kill any innocents in Sin Bin during that quest.

Feeding on "unwilling victims" depends level of your Unarmed Feat, so Strength + Brawl, no Melee. Check their descriptions in game. :)

Ah, right, Unarmed, been some time since I played Vampire. There are several ways to get free points in Brawl. Check the walkthrough that came with the patch.

I can tell how to get "free" brawl, or melee, but strength is a key attribute. And if you are playing with Wesp's awesome patch, you won't get to feed on her, so melee/unarmed/spells are good to take her down, depending on your clan. It's been a while since I've played, so, things I say maybe a little out of date, but I do try to keep up with things.

I wish Lili.Ex had given this thread a different title. It appears on my screen as "I am having trouble with Hot Stripper Ass." under latest forum activity. I was seriously thought this might have been spam!

Well I certainly keep that in mind if I ever need help with a quest in the future! :'D

If ya wanna feed on the tough guys, you need to be tough yourself.

I usually go Brawl -> Melee -> Firearms. But I massively used books in the past. Maybe if I would skip that I would have to specialize, too.
