Seeker: Base

Learn how to unlock the Seeker Archetype in Metaphor: ReFantazio, its available skills, and powerful synthesis skills. Essential for early-game progression.

The Seeker Archetype is automatically unlocked as part of the main story at the Northern Border Fort during the game’s opening events. After this, you will befriend More in Akademeia, allowing you to customize archetypes and equip the Seeker on other party members. Equipping the Seeker on the Protagonist is free, but requires MAG for other party members.

The Seeker has six basic skills unlocked between ranks 1-20:

• Cyc — Deals weak magic Wind damage to one enemy (4 MP)
• Dei — Weak HP recovery for one ally (4 MP)
• Tarukaja — Increases one ally’s attack for 3 turns (8 MP)
• Sweeping Slash — Deals weak physical slash damage to one enemy (unlocked at Rank 09)
• Cyclo — Deals medium magic Wind damage to one enemy (unlocked at Rank 15)
• Tetrabreak — Negates one enemy’s Repel physical skill (unlocked at Rank 20)

Wind damage skills are strong early in the game, Tarukaja adds another damage type, and Dei provides additional healing.
