Conquering the Faithwight Magileto in Metaphor: ReFantazio
Metaphor: ReFantazio features challenging mini-bosses in its dungeons, often encountered before the final boss. The Faithwight Magileto, residing in the Spire of Blind Faith, is a particularly formidable foe, demanding strategic prowess and a touch of luck. This guide details its weaknesses and provides a winning strategy.
Faithwight Magileto: Weaknesses and Abilities
This level 50 enemy can summon additional level 50 enemies, making engagements below level 45 ill-advised.
Weakness | Repel | Resists | Blocks |
---|---|---|---|
Strike | Light, Pierce, Electric |
The Faithwight Magileto wields potent dark and light magic, capable of targeting individuals or the entire party. Its arsenal includes Megidolaon, a devastating area-of-effect attack, further amplified by passive buffs enhancing dark, light, and electric damage. It also utilizes Soul Scream, granting itself four Press Turn icons per turn, and can summon additional level 50 skeletons.
These summoned skeletons boast strong slashing attacks and dark magic, along with access to potent healing spells, often restoring the Magileto to full health. Their weakness lies in Strike attacks.
Defeating the Faithwight Magileto: A Strategic Approach
Even at level 50, this battle is incredibly challenging. Preparation is key:
- Acquire Dark Dodge (Magic Knight) and Light Dodge (Healer).
- Skill Inherit Strike skills (Brawler).
- Utilize Archetypes resistant to Dark and Light (Warlock, Thief).
- Carry Tetrabreak to counter Tetrakarn.
Archetype selection is flexible, prioritizing resistance to Dark, Light, and Slashing attacks. Strength-focused Archetypes with Skill Inheritance are advantageous. Ensure at least two party members possess party-wide healing spells, and equip all characters with Strike attacks to maximize Press Turn Icons and mitigate damage.
Luck plays a role; consecutive Megidolaons are nearly insurmountable. Equipping Dark and Light Dodge on most party members helps mitigate damage and shorten enemy turns. Prioritize eliminating summoned allies swiftly before their healing abilities come into play. Dekaja can dispel enemy buffs. The ideal turn strategy involves at least six Strike attacks and two party-wide healing spells.
This detailed strategy, coupled with careful preparation, significantly increases your chances of victory against this challenging foe.
