In your task of tracking down the infamous kidnapper Heismay in 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Metaphor: ReFantazio, and after having to su🥀ffer through the bowels of𒆙 a giant sandworm, you'll find yourself in the Giant Sandworm's Nest. This isn't the largest area by any means💟, but there are some enemies and items to be found.

Metaphor ReFantazio Will Take As Long To Beat As Per𝓰sona 5
Better clear all of October, then.
Most importantly, you💞'lඣl have a couple of battles against Heismay, who has a rather annoying ability he can use. Fear not though, we figured out how to best this little dude, and we've got it all covered right here.
Quest Prep
After you have evacuated from the belly of the Giant Sandworm in a filthy fashion, you'll find yourself outside the Giant Sandworm's Nest. Fortunately, your HP and MP have all been fully restored.
There's a Wasteland Peddler here where you can restock on some curative items as needed, and you ca🅷n also go to Akademia too, and fine-tune your party for the area ahead.
Recommended Party Setup
There's a lot of leeway for party setups here as therꦛe aren't any ♛serious weaknesses or affinities you need to worry about. Going in with your favourite/best team is completely viable, but we've broken down the setup we used and why.
Character |
Archetype |
Formation |
Strategy |
---|---|---|---|
Protagonist |
Healer/Seeker/Any |
Back |
The protagonist is a good option to heal your party, either with Healer or Seeker, but really any role works as long as they have some healing abilities inherited. If you can give them a Wind or Dark spell too, that'll be an added bonus for🏅 against the Papyros. |
Strohl |
Warrior/Swordsman/Any |
Front |
Warrior or Swordsman are probably Strohl's ಌstrongest, but really any Archetype is viable. |
Hulkenberg |
Knight/Mystic Knight/Any |
Front |
Knight or Mystic Knight for Hulkenberg are likely her strongest Archetypes, but Pierce will help against the Papyros. Ultimately, any role can be used though. |

Giant Sandworm's Nest Enemies
As you🦂 enter when the weather is bad, enemies are stronger and hitt♎ing their weaknesses will not grant you an extra Turn Icon.

Papyros |
Weak to Pierce, Wind, and Dark. Resists Fire, I𒆙ce, and Electric, and Reflects Light. |

Walkthrough
The nest is very linear, so you can't really go wrong. When you reach your destination on the northern side of the map, there will be a cutsc🐻ene followed by a fight against Heismay (covered below). After Heismay withdraws, you'll be in his tent.
Explore the tent, interacting with the four items marked on your map (they are glowing orbs and hard to miss), before entering another cutscene. The cloth is there🅷 to dampen noise, though your team will figure that out even if you don't respond correctly.
After another cutscene, you'll be thrown into yet another battle with Heismay. This second battle plays out much the same as the first.

Heismay Battle Strategy
Heismay will immediately use Clone Art to create three other clones, followed by an Attack.
Striking a clone instead of Heismay will result in your party losing the rest of its Turn Icons and Heismay immediately retaliating, including clone attacks, so that's four consecutive attacks. Attacking clones counts as a miss and can induce Anxiety in your team.
You have to attack the real Heismay to dispel the clones, which he will promptly resummon on his next 🔯turn.
You can tell which is the real Heismay as he is the only 🦩one wi💜th a shadow.
Heismay doesn't have any weaknesses, so just keep attacki🔯ng the real Heismay and chip away at his health unt🐷il he withdraws.
You'll face Heismay again shortly afterwards and the strategy is tཧhe same.

Me⭕taphor: ReFantꦅazio Has No Political Agenda, And Focuses On Anxiety As A Theme
We spoke with a few of the Atlus devs about how Metaphor: ReFantazio is the culmination of all their experience oꦇn previous titles.
