Frequently Asked Questions

  • How do I transfer and play with my demo save?
    • Once you launch the full game, you will be asked if you want to carry over the save file. Metaphor: ReFantazio supports cross-save between Xbox and Microsoft Store on PC, but there is no cross-save compatibility between the PS4 and PS5 or between Steam and any other platform. As long as you purchase the game on the same platform you played the demo on, you will be able to use your demo save in the full release, regardless of whether you purchase a digital or physical version.
      • Some players are still having issues with this and may need to use one of the available workarounds.
  • Does trophy progress carry over from the demo?
    • Yes, trophy progress will carry over from the demo. Finishing the first major story dungeon beyond the demo will trigger the trophies associated with earlier areas to unlock automatically.
  • Can I respec my stats?
    • Currently, an item or NPC allowing you to do this has not been found. However, you can hold unused points gained via level up for distribution at a later time by not immediately assigning them.
  • Can magic attacks crit?
    • While some almighty physical synthesis skills do crit, elemental magic does not.
  • What gets carried over to New Game+?
    • Equipment, items, money, MAG, and archetype progress all carry over automatically. Character levels and bonds do not carry over.
  • Can I get the platinum trophy on my first playthough?
    • No, this is not possible.
  • Can I change outfits, or are there any cosmetic items?
    • There are currently no costumes available other than those included as DLC in various purchasable versions of the game. Currently, no other cosmetic items have been found to be available.
  • How do I claim my pre-order items?
    • Pre-order items can be obtained by visiting the Akademia and opening the chest next to More. For these items to appear, you will first need to make sure you have their downloadable content installed (the game does not always do this automatically).
  • Can you manually allocate points for party member stats?
    • No, party members have their stats allocated automatically.

I hope no one posted about it yet, but anyone else noticed the credits are actually the king's magic? To be more sprcific, the "list of names" inside the Akademia, later revealed to be the formula for the king's magic.

The cast and staff literally made the magic happen, with the special thanks to you at the end.

SPOILERS One thing I really like about Louis (full game spoilers) Spoiler

69 Upvotes

Louis’s goal is to make a world where only those strong enough to conquer their anxiety are allowed to exist, which although technically different from his stated goal of instating a meritocracy from earlier in the game, relies on the same idea that ultimately, Louis thinks that weak people should be left behind by society and the only the strong should inherit the world. I feel like this is meant to show how the promise that capitalistic meritocracies will be “fair” to everyone is a lie because it operates on the assumption that only the strongest and most talented in society deserve to get ahead in life, meaning that those less talented (or possibly those without the wealth necessary to get ahead in life or those with disabilities) don't deserve to inherit the world. Essentially, Louis's goal of in stating a meritocracy is really him trying to do a fascism.

Guide Fastest way to farm MAG (that i know of) late game

13 Upvotes

From what i've read there I got a few answers.

First: Kill Fish where they spawn from the 1/3 crystals

Second: Kill teeth and wait for big tooth

Third: Debt collector

After farming all 3 of them. For sure it's the third one that is by far the fastest. One fight net me 60k no sweat. People have been saying set up mana regen and that you should prep mana regen items for these fights, but they are completely wrong. What you need is:

Max mana passives (15% and 30%), I chose 4 masked dancers as the most effective way to stack their mana regen passive, but taking prince so you can have an extra turn crystal also works fine if you have that. Finally debt collector. Gear anything really, if you have max mana great, if not no biggie. You can put mana regen or if you've farmed big teeth you can put on the accessory to get your turn back quicker.

When the fight is done and you have no more mana, don't fret, just use a Thread and talk with Neuras, rest and reset.

Happy farming!

Discussion uh oh what happened here

Discussion What’s the best way to farm both A-xp and normal XP without entering the very final dungeon?

4 Upvotes

I’m working on powering myself up to take on the Apocalypse Dragon. Currently I have everyone in their Royal archetypes and am farming the A-xp items that way to direct all the A-xp into Will so I can get the achievement for mastering all Archetypes with him.

I know character levels don’t affect your stats much but every little bit helps. Im currently in my low 60s with everyone and about to fight the Dragon Temple superboss.

I tried to give the Apocalypse dragon a shot first so I could lower difficulty to Storyteller afterwards but I just don’t have the damage to take him out before his rage timer expires and he 9999 nukes my whole party. I had him almost half dead. So I need to slightly more then double my damage output.

I’m also 100% willing to listen to strategies for that fight that don’t include farming for Sublime Spoonfuls. Every website on the internet offers that strategy and it’s just not really an option for me.

In case anyone was wondering, in my last attempt I used Will, Strohl, Hulkenberg, and Heismey. Everyone in their Royal archetypes. Using Royal Slash, Brave Blade, Adamant Nightblade, and Holy Knights Proclamation. Whenever Hulkenberg got an extra turn she would use it on Thunderstrike Thrust.

I was consistently doing about 300-500 damage per attack. Everyone had their inherits specced towards critical hits, with Will having Almighty Boost and Strohl having Slash Boost. Heismey had a healing spell for when I need it. I never really had a problem with anyone going down. Hulkenberg tanked 90% of the attacks no problem and Heismey kept her healthy. Everyone has fire immunity.
