To find Zaken on ship need to light candles, and follow after blue. But seems no need to light candle, it is enough to use mass atk skill in room to find zaken. After use mass atk skill its message: [name of char] gave xxx damage to zaken. In this case red candle will never be lighted, so no need to fight with mobs.
Maybe its a bug or maybe not, I don't know it.
