    • Head East to (G-9) and zone into Arrapago Reef.

  • The battle has a 30 minute time limit.
  • Inside, you will find a NPC who will ask you to open the door for her.
    • Make sure everyone in your party is ready before opening the door.
  • Once inside, several Ashu Talif Crew members will continuously spawn and attempt to kill the NPC.
    • The NPC must be kept alive, if she dies the mission is over.
    • The NPC can be cured.
    • The members of the Ashu Talif Crew seem to ignore aggroing players, and will rush the NPC.
    • Doing damage to the Crew Members will make them aggro you.
    • If the NPC is hurt, she will run to the back of the ship until you clear everything that is attacking her.
  • Shortly after the Ashu Talif Crew members begin to spawn, the NM Black Bartholomew will appear.
    • This NM spawns on the opposite side of the hull from where you entered.
    • If Black Bartholomew is defeated all Ashu Talif Crew members will vanish and will stop spawning.
  • Once the NPC completes her painting, a treasure chest will spawn on deck.
