Thanks for the quick reply GM Glitch! The quest being patched to be Amiable+ faction certainly explains her behavior.
On live, it seems the quest was (and still is) threateningly+ for the first two npcs, but dubious+ for the final turn in

Linara Parlone in Najena was easy. I Invis'd then went right down to the cell block. She conned indiff to me so I was a little concerned but since I'm good aligned she handed over the letter as expected.

anyone can do the quest, regardless of faction or class once the enchanter charms her. i did it back in the day for a necro friend of mine who had less than stellar morals. had to charm the whole series of npc's, even her mom, in erudin

Invis creates an Indifferent faction with those that cannot see invis.
At the start of the Red Wine Quest, I was Scowling, Ready to Attack... But the priest was too low to attack me (or is naturally non-agro)
My trick :
1) Open the trade window
2) Place items in thier given slots
3) Have a grouped friend cast invis on you
4) Hit "Give"
Step 1 is where invis is set to drop when trading, by having someone invis you AFTER that point, you become Indifferent to the given NPC, hence allowing the quest to complete...

My DEF who worships Innoruuk did this and now owns the cloak... I know this quest backwards and forwards... please stop posting "how do i do it?" here it is, the exact way to complete it. and if not, my e-mail is at the bottom so i can walk you through it!
I used Ball of Clay, Threateningly, Invis, Give, obtained note.
Another Ball of Clay, Threateningly, Invis, Give, obtained faded cloak.
Another Ball of Clay, Threateningly, Invis, Give, "Thank you" nothing in return.
I ran the quest over but for the last step i had a 52 ENC (40+ should ensure 100% chance of successful charm) charm the erudin NPC and then i gave it to her and got
the mystic cloak succesfully. Turns out the following factions are required as a bare minimum to run the quest:
Linara Parlone in Najena - Threateningly
Tolkar Parlone in Felwithe - Threateningly
Trilani Parlone in Erudin ENC Guild - Dubious (a friend ran the whole quest with straight dubious faction and got it)

From these evidence, it seems that the live quest was threateningly+ for the first two NPCs, but dubious+ for the final turn in.
Is this quest different from live by design, or should this issue be investigated?
Thanks again for the quick reply!
