In the world of Metaphor: ReFantazio, dungeons are home to formidable enemies that serve as mini-bosses, challenging players even before reaching the final boss. These enemies often appear red in the overworld Fairy Sight, indicating a tough Squad combat encounter. Among these challenging foes is the Faithwight Magileto, located in the Spire Of Blind Faith. Facing this enemy early in the game is daunting and demands a well-crafted strategy along with a bit of luck.
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 adversaries. It's advisable to engage this enemy only when your party is at least level 45.
This enemy wields potent dark and light magic spells, capable of targeting single characters or the entire party. Its arsenal includes Megidolaon, a devastating spell that inflicts massive damage across the party. Additionally, the Faithwight Magileto benefits from passive buffs that amplify the damage of its dark, light, and Megidolaon spells. It can also employ Soul Scream to gain four Press Turn icons in a turn and summon level 50 skeletons to bolster its ranks in combat.
The summoned skeletons are equipped with powerful slashing attacks and dark magic, along with strong buffs and a top-tier healing spell that can restore the Faithwight Magileto to full health. These minions are vulnerable to Strike attacks, making them a critical focus in the battle strategy.
How To Beat Faithwight Magileto In Metaphor: ReFantazio
Conquering the Faithwight Magileto, even at level 50, is a formidable challenge, and nearly unachievable below that level. To enhance your chances of success, consider these preparatory steps:
- 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.
- Employ the Thief Archetype, which resists Dark damage.
- Carry Tetrabreak to counter any Tetrakarn used by summoned enemies.
Your choice of Archetypes should prioritize the above abilities while ensuring your party isn't vulnerable to Dark, Light, or Slash damage. If you have access to multiple Archetypes and can use Skill Inheritance, opt for Strength-focused Archetypes. Ensure at least two party members have a party-wide healing spell, and equip everyone with a Strike Attack to optimize Press Turn Icons and manage the health loss from these skills.
Success in this battle involves a degree of luck, especially when facing consecutive Megidolaon casts, which are nearly impossible to survive. Equipping most party members with Dark and Light dodge can trigger helpful effects that end the enemy's turn sooner. If the Faithwight Magileto summons allies, prioritize eliminating them swiftly before they can heal the boss. Consider bringing the Dekaja skill to dispel buffs from summoned enemies. Your turn strategy should focus on executing at least six Strike attacks and two party-wide healing spells to maintain your team's health and pressure the enemy.
