Before changing Archetypes, you must meet certain in-game requirements. First, get to the end of the Nord Mines dungeon and complete the Captain Klinger boss fight. Before the boss fight begins, Strohl will pick up the Warrior Archetype. You can then complete the fight.

After the boss fight is wrapped, the Protagonist will automatically form a bond with Strohl. This will take you to More at Akademia. Here, the mysterious man will enable you to unlock Grius’ Archetype. This will also unlock the ability to change Archetypes in the Metaphor ReFantazio main menu. You can now spend MAG to unlock even more Archetypes and explore more gameplay styles.

To make the change, visit the main menu and go to the Equipment section. Choose the party member you want to modify and select the current Archetype. You can now not only switch but also see details regarding strengths and weaknesses. It is important to remember that while you can switch Archetypes in towns and dungeons, you cannot modify them while you are in a battle.
