In the world of Metaphor: ReFantazio, dungeons are filled with formidable enemies that act as mini-bosses, challenging players even as they grind for XP. These enemies often appear in red on the overworld Fairy Sight, indicating they must be confronted with Squad combat. Among these challenging foes, the Faithwight Magileto, found in the Spire Of Blind Faith, stands out as a particularly tough adversary. Encountering this enemy at this stage of the game demands a near-perfect strategy and 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 spawning additional level 50 enemies, making it unwise to engage them if you're below level 45. They wield heavy dark and light magic, capable of targeting single characters or the entire party, including the devastating Megidolaon spell, which inflicts high damage across the board. Additionally, they possess passive buffs that amplify the damage of dark, light, and electric attacks. The Faithwight Magileto can use Soul Scream to gain four Press Turn icons in a single turn and can summon more level 50 skeletons to aid in battle.
The summoned skeletons come equipped with powerful slashing attacks and dark magic, along with significant buffs and one of the game's most potent healing spells, which they can use to restore the Faithwight Magileto to full health. These minions are also vulnerable to Strike attacks, making this the key to victory.
How To Beat Faithwight Magileto In Metaphor: ReFantazio
Conquering the Faithwight Magileto is a daunting task, even at level 50, and nearly impossible at lower levels. To improve your chances, 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 summoned enemies using Tetrakarn.
The specific Archetypes you select are less critical than ensuring you cover the above points and avoid weaknesses to Dark, Light, or Slash. If you have access to multiple Archetypes and can use Skill Inheritance, prioritize those with high Strength. Ensure at least two party members have party-wide healing spells, and equip everyone with a Strike Attack to maximize Press Turn Icons and maintain healing to counteract the damage from these skills.
This battle involves a degree of luck, as consecutive Megidolaon spells can be nearly impossible to survive. Equipping most of your party with Dark and Light dodge can help end the enemy's turn sooner, reducing their offensive opportunities. If the Faithwight Magileto summons allies, prioritize eliminating them quickly before they can use their healing magic. Consider bringing the Dekaja skill to dispel buffs from summoned enemies. Your strategy should focus on executing at least six Strike attacks and two party-wide healing spells each turn.
