2828 Dewhaven: Remove the Robbery Mask

3030 The Dewhaven Keep militia treats the robbery mask as hostile identification and will attack you on sight if you enter while wearing it. Simply removing the mask before approaching makes the guards peaceful again with no further steps required.

3232 If you want to keep a disguise aesthetic inside the keep, the standard Dewhaven plate helm and armor drops also mark you as friendly. However, unequipping the mask is the simplest fix and does not require farming the disguise set.

3434 Bunny Mask and Vendor Trust
3535  
3636 One specific mask is worth calling out because it changes how vendors see you rather than how enemies do. The Bunny Mask (also called the Rabbit Leather Mask) adds +2 trust to every gift you hand to an NPC while you are wearing it. A +5 flower becomes +7, a +10 Grilled Fruit becomes +12, and so on. Keep it in a quick-swap slot and equip it during gifting rounds, then swap back to combat headgear when you need to fight. The mask is craftable from leather goods, and a second copy is sold at Karin Quarry. See the NPC Trust System for daily gift caps and why the +2 bonus compounds so quickly.
