How to complete Deeds and Diversions in Metaphor: ReFantazio

As a seasoned adventurer with countless tales of valor and bravery echoing through the land of Metaphor ReFantazio, I can confidently say that the quest Deeds and Diversions was one for the books! This tricky Favor side quest proved to be quite the challenge, but the reward – a brand new piece of armor known as the Chef’s Togue – made it all worthwhile.


Refantazio abounds with tasks for players to conquer, each offering valuable prizes in return. Yet, not every task is simple to accomplish; some, like Deeds and Diversions, can pose a challenge.

As a gamer, let me tell you about this challenging Favor mission I stumbled upon in the game called Deeds and Diversions. This side quest offers an enticing reward for those brave enough to tackle it – 10,000 Reeve and a snazzy new armor set known as the Chef’s Togue. Sounds great, right? But there’s a catch! When you ask for the deed to start this mission, you’ll soon find out that the guy won’t hand it over unless you’ve already completed a specific quest first.

To make sure you acquire the armor and accomplish numerous quests in the imaginative realm of Refantazio, here’s a guide on finishing Deeds and Distractions.

At the outset, it’s important to mention that this quest is optimally suited for players at level 35. Additionally, there’s no need to worry about rushing as this quest isn’t tied to a specific timeframe.

Quests to complete before you start

To begin, it is essential that you finish the “Superior Scrimshaw Hunt” first. This task will provide you with the necessary background to spin a captivating yarn for the approaching NPC in the “Deeds and Diversions”.

You might choose to embark on the Deeds quest first, followed by the Superior Scrimshaw Hunt. However, completing the Deeds quest prior will enable you to breeze through the challenge without needing to interrupt your ongoing dialogue.

To start your adventure with Deeds and Diversions in Metaphor, make your way to Port Brilehaven. Once there, find the Nightprowler in Angler’s Inn Square. Outside this location, you will encounter a man who is quite familiar – the Overfamiliar One.

Speak with him, and he’ll share the story of how a loan lender seized his Deed, yet failed to return it even after all loans were repaid.

Naturally, it’s your job to get it back for him.

Step 2: Find the Noble

Following your conversation with the Overly Familiar Individual, he’ll clarify that you are seeking a noble from Ishkia who has a particular affection for, let’s call it, “blood games.

The clue is all you need to locate this noble, as the “bloodsport” he’s referring to is the Coliseum. So, head to The Varmareno Coliseum.

If you’re finding things tough, you should head towards Arenafront Wharf in Port Brilehaven. Exit from the northwest side and you’ll locate it effortlessly. When you’re close by, keep an eye out for a distinguished gentleman wearing purple attire. This man is known as the Pompous Noble.

Step 3: Convince the noble to give back the deed

When you come across the Arrogant Lord, approach him and engage in a discussion with him. He’ll clarify that he possesses the necessary documents. In your dialogue with him, you should aim to choose these responses:

  1. “You know me, I trust?”
  2. “Such a tawdry area, this.”
  3. “I’ve seen great wonders.”

Once you’ve made your selections, you’ll need to share with him your story about the journey to the Forsaken Tower, a place you visited during the Superior Scrimshaw Hunt. If you haven’t finished that quest, it might not be impactful enough for you to negotiate effectively with him as he may not be adequately impressed.

After this, click: “You know the Forsaken Tower?”

Once you’ve shared the story, he’s likely to be impressed and inquire about what you desire as a trade for the tale. In this scenario, your choice is the Deed, and he will pass it on to you.

Step 4: Go back to the Overfamiliar Man

  • Chef’s Toque armor
