Walkthrough

If you've just completed The Requiem on another job, you can save a bit of time and immediately flag the quest with Mertaire on that job. However, you do need to switch back to BRD before talking to Imasuke.
  • The Orcish Warlord spawns in the same room and has True Sight.
  • Soloable by a 75 RDM/NIN.
  • You can simply pull the Orcish Warlord to the nearby zone so all other mobs despawn, then kill the Orc. Go back into the altar room and spawn and kill the Bugaboo.
  • After you defeat Bugaboo, check the altar again and go back to talk to Chalvatot to complete the quest.
