I'm having fun with this mission and its also a pain in the arse too. Here's a few tips and answers to common questions:
1) It is a solo mission, meaning just you and only you. No henchies or heroes. Another real player with an invite can come with you I believe, but I always did it solo.Why is it solo? Its a party.
2) The objective to get the vase has some issues. You can pay 5 platinum and get the vase.
You can fight the woman.
You can fight the guard to get the feather and go get the vase.
I found that if you lure the guard over to the woman, they will start fighting.
One of the things that guard did to me once was chase me all the way around past the Duel Master, up the flight of stairs - then he got stuck or just stopped. He isn't supposed to chase you beyond a certain distance from his original spot I guess because the party servers dropped their trays of food, and attacked him. Sometime a bit later, I discovered the guard had died - likely attacked by the other Vabbian guards. I got his feather, that was that.
3) Learn the emotes well. The mime duel is a blast, and also a pain in the arse.
4) Make sure you don't die in the Duel or with the guard. Dying at a party? Oh, the ignominy!
5) If doesn't appear that the drinking game earns you points toward the Drunkard title.

Why would you fight the guard? The woman is level 10...

Spoilers Ahoy!
The guard's a pushover, too, for all that he's higher level. I'll have to try luring him about - that sounds entertaining.
The mime duel is kicking my butt... There's one emote I'm just not getting.
OK, so what's the last event at the festivities? I've got mime duel, duel master, dancers, and drinking contest. Which am I missing?

Tranquilis: You gotta get a vase for Prince Bokka. You can either pay 5k for it or kill a bitch. Then you give it to the attendant.

Don't forget the one with the little boy and girl.
If you're a male character, talk to the girl and accept her "quest". then /dance and you're done that.
For females, not sure.

Technically it is part of the primary because you have to give the vase before Bokka even considers talking to you. They count it as an event though just to get you started.

if you steal a drink from the great zehtuka (the hunter dude), he'll become hostile and start killing everyone. if he attacks a servent person, theyll drop a drink or food tray, which you can pick up and carry around

Try doing this darn thing as a monk. Alone. With nothing but a Blight skill bar and (gratefully) a Divine Favor req staff. I wanded the Palawa fight and self-healed and then killed the merchant (again) with wanding ftw.

doesnt take long really O_o
Guildmaster Cain
Mime Duel: I think the hardest one to recognise is /pickme, he also uses /boo/taunt/shoo/cheer/dance/violin/bow and some more
I did it all with a 55-SoJ build, when I heard it was solo... not the best choice afterwards. Anyway, every fight was not that hard, I killed the harpies at the end, just by keeping the guards alive and casting SoJ on them.

for the mime I dont get the one where it looks like he squats.
At the time I didnt think of it, but is it /squat?

Maybe it's the beginning of his /dance emote, which is the same as the breakdancing male-ranger. Try it.

lol that mime, got me for so long with this one emote I couldn't recognize. Finally he went through a pattern without doing that one so I beat it.
I like that mission, and in general I like the changes they made to missions in nightfall. Easier to find your way around with the map, and they are shorter more specific missions. Fun stuff!!

It's probaly one of the best missions from all of NF, but if it's a pain in your arse go to a docter there imight be something wrong with you
/sarcasm [only the doctor part tough]
Mime is fun and actually learns you certain emotes, but as a tip for those who have problems with him:
you have the time to type several emotes before he actually says your wrong so if you can't tell wether it was cheer or goteam use both :P

Gotcha - finally beat the mime - the one emote I was getting crossed up was /fistshake and /pickme. that pair took me a while to figure out. Another that almost caught me was /breath.
Anyway, sure enough as you said, the vase was the key. I now am the proud owner of a minor stack of essentially useless rare antique vases. Think I'll take up Flower Aranging as my secondary prof...
Was fun stealing Great Zehtuka's drink - he pwn'd half a dozen nobles and a servant before I intervened. Then the remaining nobles just wandered off as if nothing had happened... Bizarre. Amusing. The food and drink trays... Do they do anything for you, besides letting you play waiter?
Anyway, very entertaining mission - loved this one muchly. The sly sense of humor is refreshing and *very* welcome.

Kid Divinity
the squating one may be /excited
Cymmina
The squatting one is probably /boo, he uses ranger animations.
lennymon
squat also sounds like ranger /sit, could go either way... depending on the hands

I went in with a MM skillbar, and NO attack spells. When the harpies came, I was like, ok, time to get creative on corpse generation...
Jeff Highwind
I thought the mime battle was the easiest of them all.
OlMurraniKasale
The mine also uses /moan.

Ok I'm lost. I just want to get through this dont care about bonuses. I gave that one guy 5k and he says hell grant me an audience then when i click "I am ready" he just says something about varesh beating the sunspears and she'll do it again and he will only ally for the winning side.

^ I offered to use his head as a present to the prince. Negotiations were a little rocky... but in the end, I think it was good arrangement for us all.
Killing him gets you what you need to finish the mission.

I didnt even see anything about that when I talked to him. I finally got one of the other guys to go with me but the third guy still wont do anything except repeat the same stuff over and over.
And then my computer freezes up and now i lose all that. >.< arg!!!!
5 $@#$@$k down the drain. @#$@#$#@$#@$@
