I have read that Priestess Gut can capture a character and that they will can be rescued. Try as I might, no matter how I answer her questions related to the tadpole, the scene ends with:

You could have made this easy on yourself, now I guess we do it the hard way.

Then she attacks me. What am I missing?

Thank you smile

That’s how it usually ends for me as well! To the extent I can’t recall exactly how it works when it doesn’t. IIRC she’ll give you a sleep potion to drink (or perhaps sometimes she’ll cast Sleep?), and if you succumb when you wake you’ll be her prisoner.

If you’re playing a race with resistance to magical sleep effects (like an elf) then she can’t do that, so that might be your issue?

Try this. I just quickly copy paste it now and translated it with deepl, but I hope it helps you out. wink

Address Priestess Gutt with Lotus (Rogue).
2. This time will probably have a purpose.
2. I'd rather not do that after all.
1. Go deeper into your thoughts.
2. I have a creature in my mind. Can you do something about it?
1. You are certainly infected too.
Group talk and then follow Priestess Gutt to her chapel.
2. What exactly do you want to do?
1. Well, I am ready.

Approach Priestess Gutt alone with Oghren (Dwarf), but leave door open (for cutscene!)
1. What is the mark good for?
2. I will not let you burn my flesh.
2. Cut the connection.
2. You bet. Can you help?
1. Yes. Ready.
1. Seal your mind against her intrusion.
2. Shut her out completely.

2. Allow her to look around in your memories.
3. You also have such a thing in you, you know?
2. I'm still in my right mind. I'll find another way.
1. What kind of plan do you have exactly?
2. Do what you have to. The main thing is to make it go away.
[Arcane Client] - Success

3. You are infected. The same will happen to you.
2. Tighten the muscles against the chains. - Failure

You just have to make sure you drink her potion or get her sleep spell off. Once you're in the cell, stay passive with your answers, even with the answer about the chains --> 2. Conserve your strength. If the Red Queen's suspicions are correct, just make sure to address Priestess Gutt with a companion who is not an Elf or Half-Elf.

The actual script is designed for the main character so you get odd results letting minions do the talking

Also the guards can arrest you as well which is much less buggy

In a normal single player this may be true, with a custom party every char is MC.

Of course the guards can arrest you, but they put you in the cell at the Worg Pens near Halsin.

Priestess Gutt has her private prison, please don't get confused. Or maybe her bodyguard Polma puts you in Gutt's cell, I haven't tested that yet? Is that what you mean? - If so, good to know.

When this happens and if you can, silence her and quickly take her out before she calls for help. May require save scumming to get initiative. I use sorcery points to silent cast. Other than that it’s melee time!

Or use a char that isn’t immune to sleep.

it was too long ago i'd have to retest in order to see what guard puts you where... [after getting your mark] the easy way is just walk into her room, close the door \ suround \ kill the bitch. if your gifh or vamp open the fight with a melee hit its uncommon to need 2

i assume the second talk she gives normally ends in combat because your rep is too low... did you help the girl goblin get out of the druid camp?
