Conquering the Faithwight Magileto in Metaphor: ReFantazio

Faithwight Magileto: Weaknesses and Abilities
Weakness | Repel | Resists | Blocks |
---|---|---|---|
Strike | Light, Dark, Pierce, Electric |
This level 50 enemy can summon additional level 50 foes, making it ill-advised to engage below level 45. The Magileto utilizes potent dark and light magic, including party-wide attacks like Megidolaon, amplified by passive damage buffs. It also employs Soul Scream for extra Press Turn icons and can summon level 50 skeletons.
These summoned skeletons possess strong slashing attacks, dark magic, and access to powerful healing spells, often restoring the Magileto to full health. Their weakness, however, is Strike attacks.
Strategies for Victory
Even at level 50, this battle is extremely difficult. Preparation is key:
- Archetype Selection: Prioritize Archetypes resistant to dark, light, and slash damage (Warlock and Thief are good options).
- Skill Inheritance: Inherit Strike skills from the Brawler Archetype to maximize Press Turn icons. Acquire Dark Dodge (Magic Knight) and Light Dodge (Healer) to mitigate magical attacks.
- Spell Focus: Equip at least two party members with party-wide healing spells. Ensure every character has a Strike attack.
- Tetrabreak: Carry Tetrabreak to counter enemy Tetrakarn.
The fight involves some luck, as consecutive Megidolaons are nearly insurmountable. Dark and Light Dodge significantly increase your chances of surviving these attacks. Prioritize eliminating summoned allies before they heal the Magileto. Dekaja can dispel enemy buffs. Aim for at least six Strike attacks and two party-wide heals per turn.
This detailed guide should significantly improve your chances of defeating the Faithwight Magileto. Remember, preparation and a dash of luck are vital for success in this challenging encounter.
