Metaphor: ReFantazio

Magic Knight Archetype

By
Echo Apsey

The "Magic Knight" iconMagic Knight is one of the Adept Archetypes in Metaphor: ReFantazio. It is slightly improved from the basic "Knight" iconKnight with stronger magic skills to protect and heal your party. It is weak to Electric damage, but strong against Slash damage.

The Magic Knight is a part of the Knight Lineage and investing in it will allow you to unlock its Elite forms: the "Paladin" iconPaladin or the "Dark Knight" iconDark Knight. The Magic Knight Archetype is a fairly easy to use class with a lot of flexibility to act as a healer and a protector, while still doing some damage.

How to unlock the Magic Knight Archetype

The Magic Knight is unlocked once you reach Rank 3 with "Hulkenberg" iconHulkenberg’s bond. This can be done when you speak to her on the Gauntlet Runner upon getting the hulking machinery. You will also need Rank 20 with the Knight Archetype and to spend 9,000 MAG to equip it.
