This is a walkthrough for the side quest Meeting the Automaton in Romancing Saga 2: Revenge of the Seven. Read on for the step-by-step guide to the quest and how to unlock the Automaton class!

Meeting the Automaton is a short late-game quest that requires contact with Hiraga, the eccentric inventor living in Somon.
You will need to meet Hiraga XVI or later, and completed the Constructing the Leon Bridge and Mystery of the Canal from earlier generations.

Though the side quest will not start until after Hiraga XV's generation, you can see an incomplete version of the Automaton by visiting Hiraga in Somon during earlier time periods.
These cutscenes serve as a hint to check back after time has passed to see the Automaton's progress.

Open the world map and travel to Somon, then speak to Hiraga. |
| 2 | ![]() Hiraga will introduce the completed Automaton. Choose Add her to your retinue to add Coppelia as a party member and complete the quest. |

Completing Meet the Automaton will unlock the Automaton as a playable character.

Promoting the Automaton to Emperor allows you to unlock the Puppet Army formation at the Training Hall, which improves ailment resistance for the whole party.

Rather than a playable character class, the Automaton, Coppelia, is a unique character. She is a powerful physical DPS, with very high base stats and proficiency in all weapons.
However, unless she is promoted to Emperor, she cannot be directly controlled in combat, and chooses commands randomly.

Note that the Coppelia is only playable for one generation. After recruiting Coppelia, abdicate the current Emperor immediately and make Coppelia the new Emperor.
After the next time skip, Coppelia will deactivate and her body will be kept in the Avalon Castle Storeroom.

Emperor Coppelia will can the powerful Poker Face ability, which makes her immune to all status effects and debuffs.
Make sure to learn Poker Face before the next time skip while Coppelia is Emperor by winning at least 30 battles with her.

After the time skip, bring the next Emperor to visit the Avalon Castle Storeroom and examine her body to earn the Poker Face ability for any character's use.
