Note: The game may freeze during the upcoming cutscenes depending on your Windower/Ashita settings. Click Expand for more details.

The FastCS addon crashes this cutscene. FPS needs to be capped at 30 (if you changed it). If using Windower, use //config FrameRateDivisor 2. If it does freeze, you can run `//lua unloadall` then `//exec autoload/autoload`, and it should recover from the frozen cutscene. Pressing Print Screen Key may also possibly break you out of soft lock.

Preparation

• Note: Before heading out to Arrapago Reef, you will need to obtain a Hamsi.
  • This can be purchased from Wahnid (H-11) in Aht Urhgan Whitegate, bought from the Auction House or easily fished from Aht Urghan Whitegate with zero fishing skill.
  • Wahnid is open from 1:00-18:00, closed on Lightsday.
    • The item is not automatically restocked. It is only available if previously sold to the guild.
• You will also need a Lamian Fang Key. Alternatively, Thief can use Skeleton Key and or Thief Tools.
  • You can obtain the key by examining the ??? once per game day at (I-7) in Caedarva Mire Map 1 (in the vicinity of the small pond containing Jnun).
  • You will need at least 2 more keys for the upcoming steps, so if you are with multiple people/characters, each one should grab a key.
  • The Survival Guide teleport to Arrapago Reef (via Arrapago Is.) and running south will exit to Caedarva Mire (I-6).
    • Escape from Arrapago Reef will put you in Caedarva Mire (I-6) as well.
    • Alternatively, you can use the Azouph Isle Staging Point (Leujaoam Sanctum), exit Nashmau at (H-6) or use the Voidwatch warp to Caedarva Mire.

• Head to Arrapago Reef Map 1 and interact with the ??? at the North East corner of (H-10) on a ship for a cutscene to begin the Mission.
  • This is easiest via the Arrapago Reef Survival Guide. Alternatively, from where you obtained the Lamian Fang Key, head to (I-6) to zone into Arrapago Reef.
    • From there, move towards (J-10) with a Lamian Fang Key to open the Iron Gate. Trade the key, and quickly cross through.
    • Hug the left wall on this cavern map. You will exit through a door back to the first Map, and you'll you reach (H-10).
  • The ??? target is the same for the Corsair Job quest. The correct cutscene mentions Pteraketos and Sealord Skin.
• After the cutscene, head to Map 3 of Arrapago Reef (F-7), and trade a Hamsi to the Apkallu Guide for another cutscene.
  • The fastest way to get to this location is to warp out and use a Survival Guide to teleport to Caedarva Mire, then immediately enter the cave into Arrapago Reef.
  • Note: If you don't have the Caedarva Mire Survival Guide, you will need another Lamian Fang Key to reach it.

Directions for if you are missing the Survival Guide

If you lack the Caedarva Mire Survival Guide, either walk from the prior cutscene area, or return to town and warp to Ilrusi Atoll Staging Point. Assuming that you're starting from the prior area: From the ship you are on now (Map 1), proceed to (F-10) to cross over to Map 2 (B). This is the same map as if you take the Ilrusi Atoll Staging Point, and the paths converge at the next point. Proceed to (D-10) to cross over to Map 3 (C). Continue to (F-9) to use a Lamian Fang Key on door "E". Through the gate, turn right and go through another gate. Wind your way around to (F-6) and zone to obtain the Survival Guide warp in Caedarva Mire. You will need it for the next Mission too. Return to the Reef to (F-7) to trade a Hamsi to the Apkallu Guide for a cutscene and resume the Mission.

• After the cutscene with the Apkallu Guide, head west and click the Camp Remnants (F-7) to begin a confrontation with:

Encounter

2 Merrow Kabukidancers (SAM) Merrows can strip your gear with Torrent. Torrent is a move which can be evaded with gear and water specific evasion. 2 Qutrub (DRK) 2 Mamool Ja Divers (Sahagin) (MNK) Trusts may be used. Call them BEFORE checking the Camp Remnants. It is not a difficult fight overall with a trust healer/support and Malignance/Empyrean +2/3 or Nyame R0. AoEs behave abnormally in this fight and only hit the primary target, meaning that AoE sleep/petrification will not work. Because of this, make sure that you're buffed and have DT equipment on before popping if you're using trusts. The foes can still be individually slept if you so choose, except for the Qutrubs.

• After the fight, click the Camp Remnants again for a cutscene.
  • Note: FastCS will soft-lock your client to a black screen at the end of this cutscene.
    • To resolve this, upon reaching the aforementioned black screen, hold Prt Scr (or Fn + Prt Scr if on laptop or a 60% keyboard) for ~2 seconds to unlock yourself from the soft-lock.
• Return to the ??? on the Corsair ship at (H-10) Map 1 of Arrapago Reef for the final cutscene and your reward.
  • You can obtain another Lamian Fang Key from the ??? in Caedarva Mire map 1 at (I-7) if the game day has rolled over straight outside of Arrapago Reef.
  • Alternatively, you can simply walk back. From the Camp Remnants: go to C to reach Map 2. From there, go to B. From there you can reach the Corsair ship.
