As you progress through your Metaphor: ReFantazio adventure, you will come across weapons and pieces of armor that can be purified. This upgrade is indicated in the description of the item. However, you’ll need to advance a bit in the game before you unlock the purification feature for your items.
Purifying these weapons and armor will significantly boost their stats and abilities and may occasionally unlock unique hidden effects. This is a crucial strategy early in the game, as enhancing your gear right away ensures that all members of your Metaphor: ReFantazio team are equipped with the best possible weapons.
Enhancing Wisdom & Unlocking Purification at the Church
You can purify weapons and armor at a church in Metaphor: ReFantazio. The St. Fermis Church located in Grand Trad serves as the primary spot for this purification process. Purifying your gear at this location will further amplify the capabilities of these already powerful items.
Access to St. Fermis Church will be granted after you finish the prologue in Metaphor: ReFantazio, making it an excellent early-game option for purification.
In addition to finding the church, there are a few further requirements you must meet before you can unlock the ability to purify your equipment. According to Gamers Heroes on YouTube, these include:
- Raising your Wisdom to Informed
- Gathering Blessed Water
You won’t be able to purify any impure weapons or armor at the church until you meet these conditions.
How to Increase Wisdom
First, you need to elevate your Wisdom to Rank 2, or Informed. Through your Royal Virtues, there are several ways to boost your Wisdom, but one of the most effective is completing quests that focus on this aspect.
According to Gamers Heroes, enjoying the view of the Royal Capital from a bench in the heart of Grand Trad is another straightforward method for easily increasing this Royal Virtue without veering off course.
How to Acquire Blessed Water
Once you reach Wisdom Rank 2, you’ll need to collect some Blessed Water. As stated by TheGamer, Blessed Water is necessary for each purification, and obtaining it isn’t too difficult. Dungeons are great locations to gather Blessed Water, but you’re also likely to acquire some through natural story progression.
If you are using the Thief Archetype in Metaphor: ReFantazio, you can steal Blessed Water from Trove enemies found in dungeons. Utilize this Archetype or any other with a Steal ability for efficient collection.
Once you have met the necessary requirements, you can purify your impure weapons and armor at any local church in Metaphor: ReFantazio. Make sure to bring all the affected items with you for your next visit and select the Purify option when talking to the priest inside. Regular trips to the church will help you unlock the full potential of your gear. Keep in mind that purification comes with a cost, and it can add up quickly if you allow your equipment to accumulate.
