Walkthrough

• Speak to Luto Mewrilah for a cutscene.
• Head to Ru'Lude Gardens and talk to Muhoho (H-7, upper balcony of the Palace) for a cutscene.
• Head to Bastok Mines and talk to Gelzerio (H-7, inside Boytz' Knickknacks) for a cutscene.
• Head to Windurst Waters and talk to Chamama (F-10 - North map, at the Rarab Tail Hostelry) to receive the key item Jar of Reversion Dust.
• Head back to Upper Jeuno and talk to Luto Mewrilah for another cutscene.
• Verify that your Signal Pearl is in your inventory, then head to Lower Delkfutt's Tower and inspect a ??? at J-9 of the first floor for a cutscene. (It won't work with Tactics Pearl)
• Check the ??? at I-5 for another cutscene.
• Check the first ??? (J-9) again to spawn the NM Illusory Pot. When you re-gain control, your NPC will fight with you, even if you don't have your Signal Pearl recharged.
• Defeat the Illusory Pot

• Reported to be soloable by Lv.50 with very little trouble.

• Speak to your NPC. Your NPC will only be around a short while after the fight.
• Afterward, inspect the ??? once more for a cutscene, which also explains the partnership between the two thieves in Bait and Switch.
• After the cutscene you are given a Costume Kit and the choice of three Tactics Manuals - Tactics Manual of Endurance, Tactics Manual of Fortitude or Tactics Manual of Might. Choose one and complete the quest.

Notes

• The Tactics Manuals are Rare items which can be sold by bazaar or traded but not auctioned.
• To use the manual, talk to your NPC at the Rendezvous Point with it in your inventory. When you talk to the Rendezvous Point again, the new job is available to be selected from the job style menu. (It is important to note the Manuals won't work if they are in your bazaar)
• You do not lose the manual when your NPC learns the new job.
• You can trade your manual to others in order for your NPC to learn all 3 new job styles.
• Your NPC may use the manuals before you defeat the NM, even before you start the quest, provided you have sufficient bond and the manual in your inventory upon visiting a rendezvous point.
• If you have the manual in your inventory that you wish to choose, you will not be able to receive another until you take the manual out of your inventory and will get the message 'Come back after sorting your inventory.'
