How To Increase Eloquence In Metaphor: ReFantazio

Speeches & Debates

After the tournament has begun, the player can get up on stage anytime and speak, giving points in Eloquence. The stage is also usually found right next to or near the rock heads for the tournament,letting you collect MAGwhile on your way to raise your Eloquence.

If another candidate is already on stage, you may join in and debate them. You’ll only have one chance to win the crowd over and only one of the three options will do so. Just for participating, you’ll get points in Eloquence and one in Imagination, though if youwin the debate you’ll get an extra point in Eloquence, someReeve for support, and anincrease in popularity. Beating every candidate in a debate will also give you a trophy.
