Some of the seals needed to complete these Fusions can be obtained by playingRealm of Repressionincursions, and these drain Stamina, which recovers slowly. Players can increase their stamina levels by gettingCoffee Aidfrom the Weekly rewards.

Remember that Wonder still needs to participate in Evening Night City events (meetups) withMerope to raise her synergy rank, and there are loads of other rewards that can be obtained by increasing synergy with this Confidant. Merope loves Idols and things related to music and photography, so buying some gifts for her before the meetups will result in increasing her synergy rank faster.
