Like the Persona series, Metaphor: ReFantazio features a time-based calendar system, which means you’re on a tight schedule. If you want to achieve 100% completion, you’ll need to make the most of every single day and night. Although there are so many things to do during the day, Metaphor: ReFantazio features a variety of activities that can only be enjoyed during the evening hours. This guide covers everything you can do during the night so that you can maximize your progress in Metaphor: ReFantazio.
8 Best Archetypes For Strohl In Metaphor: ReFantazio
Met in the early game, Strohl is a key member of the party in Metaphor: ReFantazio, and there are plenty of archetypes that suit him well.
What To Do At Night in Metaphor: ReFantazio
The nighttime hours should be used strategically to balance your character's development and social life. Here are some things you should prioritize doing at night in Metaphor: ReFantazio.
Rank Up Followers
Two of the protagonist’s followers, Brigitta and Alonzo, are mainly active during the nighttime hours. In fact, Brigitta rarely ventures out during the day and is almost always found at night. This is the best time to talk to her and increase her rank. On taking Brigitta to Rank 8, you’ll unlock the Tycoon Archetype.
While other Followers aren’t really found at night, some, including party members, will have night-related quests or activities at least once.
Increase Your Royal Virtues
The five Royal Virtues shape the protagonist's journey and determine their ultimate success in the Tournament for the Throne. You can increase most of these virtues, like Courage, during both day and night, but others are easier to level up at nighttime.
For instance, you can use the nighttime to:
- Increase your Wisdom by gazing at the city’s landmarks.
- Increase Imagination by spending time with Strohl and Heismay.
- Increase your Eloquence by participating in debates at Martira Podium.
Watch Plays At The Opera House
Those who are in the late-game stages of Metaphor: ReFantazio, mainly in October, can spend the evening enjoying a performance at the Opera House in Altabury Heights. The Opera House becomes accessible after completing the events in Altabury and there’s a variety of plays to choose from. Attending a performance can also increase your chosen Royal Virtue.
Spend Time At The Hot Springs
While in Altabury Heights, you can unwind and recharge by soaking in the hot springs at nighttime. The Altabury Hot Springs become accessible when you’re towards the end of the game, specifically in early October. To unlock this feature, you'll need to complete a side quest triggered by an NPC in Altabury who asks you to bring a vial of hot spring water for her. Once you’ve completed the quest, you can visit the Hot Springs and spend your nights soaking in the water.
