ReFantazio Quest Guide: Mastering the Right to Rule in Metaphor

Metaphor: ReFantazio features various bonds that players can engage with, often tied to specific quests essential for progression. A notable example is Bardon, whose bond progression halts upon reaching rank 6, requiring the completion of the quest titled **The Right To Rule** to advance further.

This quest can present a significant challenge due to the formidable level 60 boss encounter, regardless of the player’s current level. For those eager to tackle this challenge early, the following strategies may prove helpful.

Initiating The Right To Rule Quest in Metaphor: ReFantazio

Once players complete rank 5 of Bardon’s bond, the quest initiates automatically. Bardon will be stationed at his usual location in Martira daily until you are prepared for the boss battle. Engaging with Bardon and confirming your assistance will transport you directly to the confrontation. Thus, ensure you’re equipped and ready before proceeding.

Though the boss stands at level 60, it is entirely possible to defeat this foe in your early 50s with a competent party setup. The ideal team composition would include:

Protagonist – Pugilist
Eupha – Summoner
Basilio – Berserker
Junah – Masked Dancer

To enhance your chances, employing **Skill Inheritance** to equip a strong party-wide healing spell along with **Dekunda** on selected party members is crucial. Additionally, having several buff spells at your disposal is advisable, as the battle includes unique mechanics that amplify their effectiveness.

Strategies to Defeat Greatworm Homo Butera in Metaphor: ReFantazio

The Greatworm is particularly vulnerable to ice attacks while having no other affinities. An interesting aspect of this battle is Bardon, who can occasionally intervene to buff your party’s stats with a free action. This buff may enhance all stats by one rank or improve a single stat. Bardon usually acts every four turns, so timely usage of your own buffs will help retain the benefits until his next action.

Focus on debuffing the Greatworm while Bardon buffs your party. Utilize the Pugilist’s Power Thrust and Eupha’s Summon Eagle Lion to effectively reduce the Greatworm’s attack and defense. The enemy possesses several basic attacks, including a sweeping move, a targeted bite, and a **Sandstorm** attack.

Watch out for Sandstorm, which inflicts damage across your entire party while also lowering their accuracy. It’s crucial to counter this effect immediately with **Dekunda** to maintain your offensive capability. As the Greatworm’s health declines, it will transition into a burrow attack, becoming temporarily invulnerable. Use this opportunity to maximize your buffs and prepare your team for a powerful assault once it emerges again. Overall, the Greatworm’s reliance on physical attacks simplifies battle tactics, allowing players to win with the right countermeasures against its accuracy debuffs.
