The Archetype system in Metaphor: ReFantazio is full of surprises, and as you unlock the party member during the Virga Islands, you’ll also gain access to the Summoner Archetype. Unlike many of the other Archetypes, you’ll need to craft Vessels using special ingredients to gain access to new summons. Keep reading to learn what all of the summons are and how to obtain them.
You will need to craft Vessels to get access to new Summons for the Summoner Archetype in Metaphor: ReFantazio.
All Vessels for the Summoner Archetype¶
Much like the Masked Dancer Archetype, the Summoner too can craft items by speaking to More in Akademia and selecting the Special Experiments option. For the Summoner, you’ll need to craft Vessels, each one unlocking a new summon to use for one of the three Summoner Archetypes. These use different ingredients to the mask, but are no less difficult to find. Keep reading to learn what all of the Vessels and Summons are.

All Vessel Ingredients Locations¶
Now that you know what you need to craft every Vessel in Metaphor: ReFantazio, you may be wondering just how you get your hands on these ingredients? The quick answer is that as soon as you unlock the Summoner Archetype, you’ll start noticing that most enemies in the game will start dropping them from that point.
The rarest of these Talismans, that of the Divine, Avatar, and Foul can be particularly tricky to come by, but most of the enemies in the final two story dungeons have a chance to drop them, Human-type enemies especially. On top of that, you’ll also encounter some in chests or as general pickups in dungeons and labyrinths.

Virga Island Talisman Shop¶
You can get some assistance with your Talisman hunting, although expect it to cost a lot of your hard-earned Reeves in the process. Head to the Dragon Statue Plaza and go to where the market stalls are to find Krozelli the Hunter’s shop. Not only will he sell monster parts needed for cooking, but he’ll also offer one of each of the nine Talismans at the price of 100,000 Reeves. This is expensive, but this can make crafting every Vessel much easier should you decide to take this route.
There you have it; you now know how to craft every Vessel in Metaphor: ReFantazio, along with what skills you’ll get access to. Once you craft every Mask and Vessel in the game, you’ll also unlock the Summon Mask Time Achievement/Trophy, congratulations!
