Final Fantasy 16 Notorious Marks advertised in the Hunting Boards aren’t usually easy to spot. They don’t get a map marker, forcing players to rely on an enemy description and vague location indicator. Still, to track down the Man in Black, aka Holy Trumpitour, players must complete a side quest for it to spawn. This guide helps you track down and hunt the Holy Trumpitor in Final Fantasy 16.

Final Fantasy 16: How to Defeat the Holy Trumpitour Notorious Mark
This enemy boss fight is reminiscent of the fight against the Imperial Canonnier a few chapters back. They share their appearance and some moves, although not the entire moveset. Still, it’s safe to say that familiarity gives you an upper hand in battle.
| Attack | Description | Counter |
|---|---|---|
| Mortar Slam | Holy Trumpitour performs two frontal cleaves with his Mortar and slams the floor with it. | Dodge to the sides to avoid the frontal cleaves and then dodge backward to avoid the slam. |
| Recoil | Holy Trumpitour fires his Mortar, creating some distance between him and Clive. Then, leaps toward Clive and deals damage with his Mortar. | Dodge to the sides to avoid the Mortar shot, then dodge backward to avoid the leap attack. |
| Rapid Fire | Holy Trumpitour shoots several fireballs at Clive from a distance. | Dodge to the sides to avoid the fireballs. |
| Rocketeer | Holy Trumpitour charges at Clive with his Mortar twice. | Dodge to the sides to avoid the charges. |
