Master More's Follower Bond in Metaphor: ReFantazio! Learn how to unlock all his ranks, complete his quests, and gain powerful Archetype abilities and AEXP.

This guide details how to unlock and progress More's Follower Bond in Metaphor: ReFantazio, covering his rank-up events, abilities, and associated quests.

Unlocking the More Follower Bond

More's Follower Bond is unlocked by playing through the Prologue until the Archetype system is properly introduced at the Northern Border Fort on 6/5. While More is central to the main plot and assists in honing Archetypes, the rest of his Bond is technically optional, though it will likely be completed naturally. Progressing More's Bond can yield useful AEXP items and accelerate the unlocking of Seeker Archetypes. Unlocking his second rank is highly recommended to gain access to the Archetype Tree outside of Akademia.

More provides requests focused on ranking up or unlocking Archetypes. Return to him in Akademia after completing a quest to advance his Bond.

More Rank up Events and Abilities

There are eight Rank Up events for More. The first rank is automatic, while the other seven are optional. The table below outlines the conditions for each rank and the abilities unlocked:

More's quests primarily involve ranking up or unlocking Archetypes. Chapters Three and Five, requiring the unlocking of 15 and 25 Archetypes respectively, can be the most challenging. It's beneficial to consistently unlock and level new Archetypes. More's abilities offer significant quality-of-life improvements, such as enabling Archetype changes outside of Akademia from Rank 2, allowing previews of future abilities with Ability Forecast, and enhancing equipped Archetypes with Archetype Evangelist.
