While on the main story path of Metaphor: Refantazio, you'll eventually end up in the Regalith Grand Cathedral dungeon with Hulkenberg and Strohl. A ton of monsters (Humans) will appear for the team to contend with, but one of the more annoying wild creatures is the Homo Oppo --it looks like a broken eggshell walking on two legs with boots and what appears to be a sort of duck/reptile creature inside.

If you're trying to figure out what Homo Oppo is weak to in Metaphor: Refantazio, we have the answer for you right here.

Elmenta are special enemies that drop a lot of MAG and Reeve when defeated, but catching these elusive blobs is deceptively hard.

Metaphor: Refantazio - What is Homo Oppo Weak to?

Homo Oppo is Weak to Strike

So, there three types of main melee-type attack types that monsters might be weak to in Metaphor: Refantazio. Those types are: Pierce, Slash, and Strike. And it just so happens that Homo Oppo is indeed weak to Strike, and only Strike. The Human has no other weaknesses and no resistances either. This means you can dish out any type of magic attack on it, and it'll do a good amount of damage.

Still, Homo Oppo has a large pool of HP, so switching out to a class like the Healer Archetype is your best bet so that you can inflict extra damage and get extra turns to attack.

In our instance, we had Strohl set up with the Healer Archetype, giving him the Apprentice's Mage weapon, which inflicts Strike when used to attack monsters.

If you want to inflict extra melee damage with the Strike weapon, make sure to put your party member in the front of the group during battle. However, normally, mages and healers should be kept in the back row to take less damage and support the team.

Homo Oppo's Moves

  • Regular Attack (hits one party member)
  • Wind Breath (attacks whole team with Wind magic)
  • Depraved Skewering (attacks one party member and lowers Atk/Def/Evasion/Hit
  • Oblivion Dust (makes a party member unable to use special skills)
