Navigating the dungeons in Metaphor: ReFantazio often means confronting formidable foes that serve as mini-bosses on your journey to the main boss. These enemies, often marked in red on the overworld Fairy Sight, demand strategic Squad combat even after extensive XP grinding.
One such challenging adversary is the Faithwight Magileto, lurking within the Spire Of Blind Faith. Encountering this enemy at this stage of the game presents a significant challenge, requiring a meticulously crafted strategy and a dash of luck to emerge victorious.
Faithwight Magileto Weakness & Skills In Metaphor: ReFantazio
| Weakness | Repel | Resists | Blocks |
|---|---|---|---|
| Strike | Light | Pierce | Electric |
The Faithwight Magileto is a level 50 enemy capable of summoning additional level 50 foes, making it advisable to be at least level 45 before engaging.
These creatures wield potent dark and light magic, capable of targeting individual characters or the entire party. Their arsenal includes Megidolaon, a devastating spell that inflicts massive damage across the board. Additionally, Faithwight Magiletos benefit from passive buffs that amplify the damage of dark, light, and electric attacks. They can also use Soul Scream to gain four Press Turn icons in a single turn and summon level 50 skeletons to bolster their ranks.
The summoned skeletons bring powerful slashing attacks and dark magic to the fray, along with a formidable buff and one of the game's most effective healing spells, which they can use to restore the Faithwight Magileto to full health. These minions also share the same weakness to Strike, making it crucial to exploit this vulnerability to secure victory.
How To Beat Faithwight Magileto In Metaphor: ReFantazio
Even with an optimal strategy, defeating the Faithwight Magileto remains a daunting task, especially if you're not at least level 50. Here are some preparatory steps to make the battle more manageable:
- Acquire Dark Dodge from the Magic Knight.
- Obtain Light Dodge from the Healer Archetype.
- Inherit Strike skills from the Brawler Archetype.
- Utilize the Warlock Archetype, which resists both Dark and Light damage.
- Leverage the Thief Archetype, which resists Dark damage.
- Equip Tetrabreak to counter Tetrakarn from summoned enemies.
Your choice of Archetypes should align with the above recommendations, ensuring you're not vulnerable to Dark, Light, or Slash attacks. If you have access to multiple Archetypes and can use Skill Inheritance, prioritize Strength-heavy options. Ensure at least two party members can cast party-wide healing spells, and equip everyone with a Strike Attack to maximize Press Turn Icons while managing health recovery.
Luck plays a role, as consecutive Megidolaon casts can be nearly impossible to withstand. Equipping most party members with Dark and Light dodge can help terminate the enemy's turn more quickly. If the Faithwight Magileto summons allies, prioritize their swift elimination to prevent them from using their healing magic. Consider bringing the Dekaja skill to dispel buffs from summoned enemies. Your primary goal each turn should be to execute at least six Strike attacks and utilize two party-wide healing spells.
