As you venture into Brilehaven in Metaphor: ReFantazio with your party, you’ll face three challenging boss fights before confronting the final boss at Skyrunner Charadrius. Unlike previous dungeons, this main dungeon requires strategic planning to defeat Sergeant Xanth, Maintenance Chief Ceiba, and Master Sergeant Glechom in three turns or less.
Upon reaching the infiltration day, you must also defeat Cabio and Salva within the same time frame, presenting a significant challenge if you’re unfamiliar with their weaknesses and strengths. To assist you in overcoming these boss enemies within three turns, below is a detailed guide on how to defeat all the Skyrunner Charadrius bosses in Metaphor: ReFantazio.
How to Defeat Sergeant Xanth
- Inflict paralysis and poison
- Utilize big-damage Synthesis attacks
To defeat Xanth in three turns or less, start by paralyzing him with a Stunning Arrow to increase vulnerability to critical hits. This sets the stage for additional turns, crucial for this battle as Xanth is not weak against any particular element. Additionally, train a party member in the Gunner archetype to acquire Poison Shot, further enhancing damage dealt to Xanth.
In addition to paralysis and poison, capitalize on your Synthesis moves for potent attacks. Moves like Phantom Tracer and Jump Thrust can deal significant damage and provide extra turns if landed as critical hits.
With the combination of strategies, defeating Sergeant Xanth swiftly becomes achievable, allowing you to progress to the subsequent bosses, Maintenance Chief Ceiba or Master Sergeant Glechom.
How to Defeat Maintenance Chief Ceiba
- Neutralize Repel Physical with Tetrabreak
- Leverage powerful physical skills
To overcome Ceiba, nullify his Repel Physical ability using Tetrabreak or Heartbreak Stratagem to breach his defensive barrier against physical attacks. Once the barrier is down, unleash your best physical skills, especially those from Warrior, Knight, Gunner, and Brawler archetypes.
Skills like Power Thrust and Horse-Drawn Carnage can deal substantial damage and lower Ceiba’s defenses, paving the way for a swift victory within the time limit.
How to Defeat Master Sergeant Glechom
- Redirect attacks with Knight’s Proclamation
- Deploy high-damage abilities
Glechom poses a challenge with his all-party attacks, necessitating the use of skills like Knightâs Proclamation to focus his attention on a single target. Combine this redirection tactic with potent attacks, such as Mudoon and Fiery Strike, to exploit his vulnerabilities and debuff his defenses.
Further enhance your strategies with debuffs and buffs to gain an edge in the battle and ensure a swift victory against Master Sergeant Glechom.
How to Defeat Cabio and Salva
- Utilize Mage/Wizard for electric attacks against Cabio
- Employ powerful pierce skills against Salva
During the final showdown with Cabio and Salva at Skyrunner Charadrius, exploit Cabio’s weakness to electric damage with Mage or Wizard spells. For Salva, focus on powerful pierce skills from Gunner, Magic Knight, and Pugilist archetypes to exploit his vulnerability to pierce attacks.
With strategic planning and effective utilization of skills, you can emerge victorious against Cabio and Salva within the designated time frame.
