Walkthrough

• Head to (H-6) in Rala Waterways, and retrieve the Waterway facility crank from the Storage Container.
  • Most easily accessed via Western Adoulin (K-8) from the Big Bridge Waypoint.
    • However, if you already are in Rala Waterways at the Sluice Gate and have easy access to sneak/invisible equivalents, it's probably faster just to run there directly.
  • Those assisting with the fight after already completing it do not need a Waterway facility crank.
• Return to the Sluice Gate (C-6) for a cutscene.
• Click the Sluice Gate to enter the area behind the gate.
  • If progress in Rhapsodies of Vanadiel is at Rhapsodies of Vanadiel Mission 3-8, the Inconspicuous Barrel is immediately on the right in the corner.
• Click the Antiquated Sluice Gate to enter the battlefield: Behind the Sluices (Battle).
  • If you fail the fight you will have to run back to the storage container at (H-6) for another Waterway facility crank.

The Battle

• You fight against four enemies.
• All four enemies run to a random target to perform weapon skills, regardless of hate.
  • This causes skillchains to happen on players so take care.
• Alter Ego Trusts may be summoned in this fight.
• At 119 this fight is not a problem with 5 Trusts.
  • Mileage may vary, see "coldReactive's RDM Trust Solo Testimonial" on the discussion page.

• You fight alongside Arciela!
  • Arciela will buff herself with Stoneskin, Protect V, and Shell V.
  • Arciela will engage the enemies on her own after a player readies their battle stance (takes weapons out), but will stay put until then.
  • Arciela can hold her own well, but will require healing.
