In the world of Metaphor: ReFantazio, navigating through dungeons often means encountering formidable foes that act as mini-bosses, challenging players even as they grind for XP. These enemies, marked in red on the Fairy Sight overworld map, demand strategic Squad combat to overcome. Among these daunting adversaries, the Faithwight Magileto in the Spire Of Blind Faith stands out as a particularly tough challenge, necessitating a well-crafted strategy and a bit of luck to defeat.

Faithwight Magileto Weakness & Skills In Metaphor: ReFantazio

The Faithwight Magileto is a level 50 enemy capable of summoning additional level 50 enemies, making it advisable to engage only if your party is at least level 45. This enemy wields powerful dark and light magic, capable of targeting single characters or the entire party. Spells like Megidolaon can deal devastating damage to all party members. Additionally, the Faithwight Magileto benefits from passive buffs that enhance its dark, light, and strike damage. It can also use Soul Scream to gain four Press Turn icons in a turn and summon level 50 skeletons equipped with strong slashing attacks and dark magic. These skeletons can heal the Faithwight Magileto back to full health, making them a priority target due to their weakness to Strike attacks.

How To Beat Faithwight Magileto In Metaphor: ReFantazio

Overcoming the Faithwight Magileto is a daunting task even at level 50, and nearly impossible below that. To prepare for this battle, consider the following strategies:

• Equip Dark Dodge from the Magic Knight to mitigate dark magic damage.
• Obtain Light Dodge from the Healer Archetype to reduce light magic damage.
• Inherit Strike skills from the Brawler Archetype to exploit the enemy's weakness.
• Utilize the Warlock Archetype, which resists both Dark and Light damage.
• Employ the Thief Archetype, which resists Dark damage.
• Carry Tetrabreak to counter any summoned enemy using Tetrakarn.

While the specific Archetypes you choose are flexible, prioritize those that meet the above criteria and are not vulnerable to Dark, Light, or Slash damage. If you have access to multiple Archetypes and can use Skill Inheritance, focus on Strength-heavy Archetypes. Ensure at least two party members have party-wide healing spells, and equip everyone with a Strike Attack to maximize Press Turn Icons and manage the health loss from these skills.

Success in this battle hinges on a combination of strategy and luck, especially to survive consecutive Megidolaons. Equipping most party members with Dark and Light dodge can help end the enemy's turn more quickly. If the Faithwight Magileto summons allies, prioritize eliminating them before they can use their healing magic. Bringing the Dekaja skill to dispel buffs from summoned enemies can be beneficial, but your primary focus each turn should be to execute at least six Strike attacks and two party-wide healing spells.
