Archetypes also have access to ‘Synthesis skills’ depending on your party loadout.
Best Protagonist Archetype
The end-game Archetype that Metaphor ReFantazio players should aim for is thePrince Archetype.
This is the supreme skill in the game and most player’s end goal.

In the meantime, the startingSeekerArchetype lineage is a fantastic option to stick with for The Protagonist.
The Seeker offers a range of support, magic (Wind) and Slash damage.
Specifically, you’ll need to unlock the other Royal Archetypes through their associated lineages.

Then, return to Akademia and obtain the Chronicle of the End from More.
Best Strohl Archetype
The best Archetype for Strohl is theRoyal Warrior.
Luckily, you’ll unlock the Warrior lineage from Strohl within the opening hours of Metaphor ReFantazio.

This Archetype is known for its front-row attack damage and strong Strike attacks.
Additionally, if that attack kills the enemy an extra turn will be given to your party.
If you have time to play around, however, I would recommend either theMageorCommanderArchetypes for Hulkenberg.

The Mage Archetype has access to a range of elemental magic that can specifically target enemy weak points.
This damage can be expanded to groups of enemies with the right Synthesis lineup.
The Royal Thief, however, has access to some upgraded powers.

I recommend shopping around for Heismay as you play and work toward the Royal Thief, however.
The Masked Dancer starts with a powerful Synthesis skill called theDanse Macabrewhich has a chance to one-hit enemies.
This Royal Archetype may also perform the Danse Macabre with the right party set-up.

Best Basilio Archetype
When forming a bond with Basilio, you’ll unlock the Berserker Archetype lineage.
As such, to gather the full collection, we recommend aiming for theRoyal Berserker Archetype.
Berserkers specialise in aggressive, front-line combat and as such, have high resistance.

That rounds up our guide on the best Archetypes in Metaphor ReFantazio.
