Quick Links
The Spire of Blind Faith inMetaphor: ReFantazIois, essentially, a souped-up version of the Forsaken Tower, another optional dungeon from earlier in the game. Both are short, straightforward, and bursting with powerful enemies that’ll stop you in your tracks if you don’t know what you’re up against.
That, of course, is where this guide comes in. While we strongly doubt you’ll need any help figuring out how to progress from floor to floor, we have primers on each of these monstrous monsters, as well as the treasure you’ll find along the way. Lastly, we link to our dedicated guide for the dungeon’s boss, the deadly Leogron.
Quest Prep
On your way in, the NPC marked asConfident Womanwill suggest that you fight from a distance in this dungeon, especially against the boss,Leogron.This is sound advice. We want a party that’skept in the back rowas much as possible.
For our taste, that meantthe protagonist as a Magic Seeker, Strohl as a Sniper, Junah as a Masked Dancer, and Eupha as a Summoner.
You might not have Eupha yet - if that’s the case, then either wait ‘til she joins (we think it’s worth the wait), or simply bring Hulkenberg or Heismay in a back-row position.
Bring along an ample supply ofAilment Absolutionsto curePoison. Having someone withPatraisn’t a bad idea, for that matter.

The first floor is a simple upward climb. Thesecond floorhas twoKokasados, vicious bird monsters that you may know like the back of your hand at this point. Even so,at this level, they can be pretty tough, so don’t take any risks, and do your best to stun them.
There’s a loneGold Elmento- remember, it’s weak to Wind - as well as an excellentHeavenly Water. That’s it for floor two, sohead upstairs.
Thethird flooris a doozy. Nearly a dozenweak bird foeswill attempt to swarm you while aLeogryph repeatedly casts area-of-effect spellson you. Eliminate the birds, roll behind the Leogryph, and kill it withPierce attacks. Beware its powerful Wind attacks.
Floors Four Through Six
Thefourth floorstarts with aMagla Flowernearby, which spawns bee-type enemies until defeated. Beware theKokasados. It might seem out-of-range at first, but by the time you destroy the Magla Flower, there’s a good chance it’ll be upon you.
A secondMagla Floweris past the first; this one spawns bird-type enemies with fast lunges. The chest has aTidal Trident,which boasts 336 ATK, and turns normal attacks intoWindelementals.
Thisfourth floorcan betough.Two Kokasados and a Faithwight Magiletoare here. To stand a decent chance of stunning them all, you shouldlure the first Kokasados to the doorway, carefully whittle away at it, and thendo the same with the second Kokasados.
The Faithwight Magileto’s no joke, so be sure to check out our coverage in the above table.
Grab theGold Beetleon this floor. Ascend the staircase. Thesixth floorhas roughly20 or so Level 25 Sword Noble and Spear Noble Magiletos. Don’t overestimate how easily they canget hits on you by ganging up, though.
A loneFaithwight Magiletois at the back end of the crowd. UseFae Sightif you’re worried about not discerning its identity before it gets some area-of-effect magic on you and stuns you. Past it is aTrove Imitecand aGraced Water.
The chest here containsNasu’s Longbow, which has a great effect:skills that hit multiple times will always hit the maximum amount.
