Note: This zone is likely the first time a player will encounter True Sight Taurus and become familiar with Fomor Hate aggro if they accumulate enough.

  • The zone was originally capped at level 50 and required a group. It is recommended a player be level 60+ if they wish to do it by themselves fairly easily with Trusts.
  • In addition, you'll want the ability to reapply Sneak on yourself repeatedly throughout the Mission regardless of your level.

Walkthrough

Sacrarium Map 1
Sacrarium Map 2
Useful Items to bring:
  • (Optional): Speak with Justinius at (J-6) on the top floor of the Tavnazian Safehold.
  • Examine the Walnut Door at (K-7) just up the ramp from Justinius for a cutscene.
  • Travel to (G-4) in Misareaux Coast and check the Iron Gate for a cutscene and enter the Sacrarium.
  • Once inside, head to the maze section in the southeast of Sacrarium Map 1 to the right.
    • The maze changes based on the game day, see the map for the current day's layout. Your goal is to move to connection point B, putting you on southwest section of Sacrarium Map 2.

Opening the Doors

  • The next goal of the mission is to get past the large door with 2 keyholes at (H-7) on Map 2. There are multiple ways of going about this, depending on your circumstances.

If Solo:

  • You can ask others in-game if they have done the quest A Hard Day's Knight to obtain the Key Item Temple Knight key.
    • If you have obtained this key item from the quest then you can open the doors for everyone and continue onward.

If in a party of multiple characters:

  • You can skip the quest and farm two Rare-Icon.gif/Ex-Icon.gifCoral Crest Keys from Fomors on Map 2 and Rare-Icon.gif/Ex-Icon.gifSealion Crest Key from the NM Keremet to do the mission without leaving the zone.
    • Note that the Coral Crest Key icon.png Coral Crest Key has a R rare drop rate, so it maytake a number of Fomor.
  • See Keremet's page for notes on fighting him if doing this at/near level cap.
    • There are two hallways leading to the NM. Each lined with six skeletons named Azren Kuba.
      • These will all aggro the moment you attack Keremet, but have very low HP. You may defeat them before attacking Keremet.

After Obtaining the Keys or KI:

  • Proceed to the door at (H-7) map 2.
    • If using the keys, have one of your party members with a Coral Crest Key icon.png Coral Crest Key trade it to the small keyhole and when a click is heard, the person with the Sealion Crest Key should trade it to the larger keyhole.
    • The Coral Crest Key icon.png Coral Crest Key will break upon use and you have a very small amount of time to trade the second key after the first has been traded.
      • If you messed up the timing then you will have to farm an extra Coral Crest Key icon.png Coral Crest Key.
  • After entering, take a right at the fork in the path, proceeding to the Wooden Gate at (G-8) for a cutscene.

The Old Professor

  • Afterwards, double back and exit back into the main hallway the way you came, out through the keyhole door at (H-7).
  • Straight across from this door are a small set of stairs leading to a door at (H-5). This room is full of Fomors and a ??? at the desk on the far side of the room.
  • Check the ??? in this room to attempt to pop the NM Old Professor Mariselle.
    • Only those who are currently on this mission may spawn the professor. Other players will get the message there's nothing in the drawer.
    • If the NM pops, congratulations. Otherwise, go to each of the other 5 rooms on Sacrarium Map 2 and repeat this process until it pops.
      • All five other rooms have a ??? at the desk but only one of the six will pop the NM. So it may take a little running around to find the correct one.
    • This is where being aware of Fomor Hate reset is useful. Popping the NM will cause you to lose Sneak and if you happen to have Fomor Hate and lose Sneak in a room full of Fomors, you're going to get aggro.
      • It may be a good idea to clear the Fomor from the room prior to attempting to pop the NM so you can face it and the adds alone.
  • After you pop Old Professor Mariselle, it will spawn 2 ghosts named Mariselle's Pupil. They are weak so you shouldn't worry about them.
    • Mariselle will periodically warp around the room so keep an eye on it.
  • After it is defeated, everyone on the missions needs to check the ??? to receive the Key Item Reliquiarium key.

Wrapping Up

  • Head back to the large door with the 2 keyholes at (H-7).
    • The Key Item Temple Knight key will let you slide right through if you're using that method.
    • Parties of multiple people will now have to use that second Coral Crest Key icon.png Coral Crest Key and Sealion Crest Key icon.png Sealion Crest Key to repeat the process from earlier.
    • It is also possible to leave one person behind the locked door, and reopen it using the switch.
  • Once past the doors, return to the same Wooden Gate again for a cutscene to end the mission.
