The Prince is an exclusive Lineage out of all the Archetypes in Metaphor: ReFantazio. It is exclusive to the protagonist and built with everything in mind. From powerful attack and buff skills to being able to control the battlefield. The class can cast any Synthesis Skill, acting as a great way to work with other party members and combine attacks if you are missing a particular Lineage. Due to its strength, the Prince is resistant against all types of damage and not weak to anything.

The Prince Archetype is a fairly easy to use class due to its strength, but you will have to wait a while to get access to it.

How to unlock the Prince Archetype

The Prince is unlocked during the story events on 9/24. You don’t need any MAG and you can’t miss it as it is a part of a core story beat towards the back end of the game.
