There are five ranks of Wisdom:

1. Naive
2. Informed
3. Knowledgeable
4. Erudite
5. Sagacious

To increase your Wisdom in Metaphor ReFantazio, use the following methods:

1) Landmarks and viewing spots

One of the best ways to improve your Wisdom in Metaphor ReFantazio is to visit the landmarks. Landmarks are special points of interest spread all across the map. Each time you visit one for the first time, you get +4 to your Wisdom stat. When you travel to these locations, your party members will talk and share special titbits about the location and shed light on the lore.

Some examples of Landmarks are Tree of Prophecy, Midnight Sunsands, City Ruins, Towering Seawall, Peregrine Falls, Prismatic Sea, Colerodio Cliff, Solstice Crossing, Murky Graveyard, and more.

Other than visiting the Landmarks, you can also visit certain viewing spots that can improve your Wisdom. These locations are:

• View of the Royal Capital from Sunlumeo Street (Grand Trad)
• The Ferryman Tour at Seabreeze Street (Port Brilehaven, daytime only)
• Climbing the Watchtower in Angler’s Inn Square (Port Brilehaven)
• View of Martira from Thoroughfare Square (Martira)
• View of the Beach from the edge of the Village of Pagans (Virga Island)

2) Use the bench near Igniter Shop and spend time with Neuras

One of the easiest ways to increase Wisdom is by sitting on the bench near the Igniter Shop located on Sunlumeo Street. If you decide to sit on the bench, it will take the whole afternoon or evening before your character decides they had enough of watching people and stand up. Nevertheless, the Wisdom boost from this task is quite worth the time.

This spot is also where you will meet Brigitta. She is a follower that you can unlock. Conveniently, one of her Bond Ranks requires you to reach a certain level on your Wisdom trait, so you can use the nearby bench a couple of times to reach the required level.

Neuras and Hulkenberg can also increase your Wisdom. Spend time with them on your Gauntlet Runner and inspecting machinery together boosts your Wisdom stat.
