**You will play a minigame at each tower. If you fail a particular minigame three times in a row, you will have to zone and attempt that tower again. The other towers will be unaffected.
**The order does not matter, so it is a good idea to plan accordingly depending where you enter from, be it [[Xarcabard (S)]], [[Batallia Downs (S)]] or the Campaign Arbiter warp.
 
  +
**Monsters will aggro if not sneaked/invised at lvl 99 on the way to the Regal Pawprints. They will de-aggro if you get to a Regal Pawprint.
**It is possible to target the [[Regal Pawprints]] from just inside all of the tower's entrances, except the (F-7) one, which can be targeted from a little deeper inside the tower, and thus avoid being attacked by any monsters nearby.
 
  +
**'''Note:''' The Regal Pawprints on Wiki map for Beaucedine Galcier [S] coincide with the next mission. Only two of the marks are at the towers. Make sure you examine the Pso'Xja tower pawprints.
**There are various other [[Regal Pawprints]] in the area that are not involved in this mission.
 
*You must play a different kind of mini-game at each tower, in which your objective is to plant the [[Shadow bug]] on Cait Sith in various ways.
 
**If you fail after all 3 tries, move on to the next tower and simply mark which one you lost. You must change area to retry, and you will only need to redo the games you lost in.
 
**For the games where you need to approach a Cait Sith with their back turned, wait until they turn at a 45-degree angle (still facing away from you). They seem to always go from this position back to facing the doorway, giving you slightly more time to move closer.
 
***Advancing only when they are at a 45-degree angle will guarantee success.

*[[Cait Sith Coig]]: Level 1 (J-8). ''(the level you zoned in from [[Beaucedine Glacier (S)]].)''

**She will walk or run between the two turrets randomly. Occasionally, she will pause in the middle.
**You must shoot Cait Sith Coig when she remains visible for a long enough time.
 
  +
**Try to time the shot and push the button when she is on the way out, and you think she will pause
**Coig only stays still for 1 to 3 seconds, in a pattern of: short - mid - long - short - mid - long (starting still duration is random). Movements appear to be random.
 
**The best time to shoot is when she's moving left to right, while walking. When she moves right to left, or if she is facing you, she will see you shoot and will run away. Please note that the pattern advances only if she stops. If she runs past without stopping, the pattern remains in the previous state.
 
**It is possible to be attacked by the [[Ruszor]]s and/or the [[Amphiptere]] here.

**You must tell [[Lilisette]] when [[Cait Sith Seachd]] turns her back so she can move undetected.
**The Cait Sith will only catch you if you are actually moving forward when it turns around to face you. You can be one step away from it, and as long as you are not taking a step forward when it turns around, you will not be caught.
+
**The Cait Sith will turn at entirely random intervals. When she turns at a 45-degree angle however, the next turn will always be facing away. This is the very best time to move. You can move 2-4 (even 5 if you're risky) times when he finally does a 45-degree turn.
  +
***'''Extreme patience is recommended for this minigame. (Or extreme intoxication.)'''
**It is recommended to exercise extreme patience during this game, and only move forward when the Cait Sith is facing at a 45-degree angle away from you in order to avoid failure.

**You must choose the stun option as soon as it becomes available.
**There is no real pattern for this, though it seems to work well to chirp when the Cait Sith is looking away from you, and turn away when she is facing you.
 
**You can stun as soon as Cait Sith is close enough, which is when the stun option will actually appear. Failing to stun will mean failure of the game.

Game Description

Mission Orders
Cait Sith Naoi is convinced a traitor walks among her kin. Unmasking the turncoat requires that you attach a "shadow bug" to each of the Cait Siths scattered throughout the Beaucedine Glacier.
