Fun glitch. I tried it with Zeke for about half an hour, then got it on the first try when I switched to the right side of the ladder instead. I still don't understand what's going on with it.

Like half of the blades in this game could be considered autistic.

If Rex penetrates Pyra, does he feel the pain as well?

It also says #60 even though the last thread already was #60.
Isaac Nguyen
I actually really like through back super bosses. When you win let him use his bullshit administration powers to stop the fight and congratulate you
Joseph Ward
Can blades even breed, user
Jaxon Wright
Some of them seem to have holes, but they probably can't reproduce.
Eli Gray
Pain Armu (Armu) and Plains Ardoom (Ardun) Gormott Plains Appear in rainy weather. During rainy weather, all Armu/Arduns in Gormott are replaced with "Plains Armu/Arduns", which huddle together under trees. The Pain Aryu and Plains Ardoom hide inside one of these herds and aggro you if you come close. Battlewise, one likes using attacks with launch and the other likes blowback.
Owen Ross
It's said blades use to marry drivers and many blades show sexual attraction to drivers so it stands to reason they can have sex at least
Ethan Green
Yeah OP fucked up on multiple levels.
Cooper Robinson
>battle begins >you will know our names starts to play >Rex only fight I would love for Shulk to spam the shit out of the monado arts using the true monado
Xavier Miller
Yeah can breed if its blade to blade mating. Human and blade can't.
Picture related its Mythra giving Jin a blowjob.
>*muffled rex:how can I complete with a guy like THAT? muffled*
Julian Turner
At least post the right picture.
Tyler Wright
Would be cool as Rex original shown sword looks almost exactly like it.
Anything that builds on post admin sulk would be cool. Hell let him fight aliens ala SMT devil survivor 2

Maybe.

Tyler Powell
>top panel Rex I know a shotacon artist when I see one
Caleb Sanchez
I forgot they used this name for Zanza's disciples that he created. Just like Klaus has the Trinity Processor.
Brayden Rivera

Levi Rodriguez
I just want Shulk in some form
Samuel Smith
Someone needs to make an Architect version of this but it might be too spoilery.
Grayson Jenkins
Neat
Zachary Adams
why are there so many Malos trains I do not understand
Luke Cook
>That look away Rex does
Andrew Young
I recognize that face!
Cooper Flores
Herald's, Dagas's, Newt's, and Zenobia's quests do this, too. All of the quests for blades that are supposed to be super powerful consist of the party going "NO, WE CAN'T FIGHT THAT" and "I CAN'T BELIEVE HOW STRONG YOU ARE."
There could be any number of things that causes it. My uneducated guess is that the ladder has different properties than other ones since it's the only one you kick down (no other ladder in the game lets you jump at the side like that; it's possible that the grab position for the ladder actually exists behind the wall and extends further in once you kick it down), and since it's so close to the wall it clips you outside when the character attempts to grab it from the unintended angle.
Daniel Bell
Why does Pyra always have the best expressions?
Owen Walker
Being on the bad end of this reverse "Evil Brits" thing XC2 is doing is an interesting experience.
James Murphy
How is shulk SO much more likeable despite still being a Gary sue
Jose Lee
Huh, this is interesting, I don't think anyone has posted this interview before. It's quite lengthy, and it confirms the theory that different Rare Blades have different chances of being pulled. Also, apparently the scenario for the new DLC story is already complete, but due to the sheer volume of it, they said it will probably take them until Fall 2018 to develop it. Very interesting.
>"Takahashi is confident that the gimmicks in the game will allows completionists to play for a very long time." WE ARE
David Martinez
Dude weed. She looks high.
Alexander Mitchell
>apparently the scenario for the new DLC story is already complete, but due to the sheer volume of it, they said it will probably take them until Fall 2018 to develop it This is good news. I always hate DLC's where the story they add to it amounts to something like 3 hours and your done. Having a lengthy DLC would be nice.
Jacob Davis
>>The Expansion Pass was decided to be implemented during the middle phase of development. Monolith Soft would like players to be able to experience the world of Alrest a bit longer, so they wanted to add more content after release as well. Which translates to >We were rushed as fuck to get this out before the end of the year for the Switch's first year so we had to cut a bunch of shit out of the game so we could actually finish it
Ethan Davis
>not using spoilers despite OP >not using spoilers even though spoiler tags are provided >"DUDE IT'S UR FAULT HURR"
Juan Campbell
Is their any way to grind for overdrive protocols?
Dylan Hall
But they also said that the DLC story can be played without going through the main story. So I don't think it's something that was cut from the game due to time constraints.
Tyler Nguyen
Didn't mean to quote
Brandon Scott
>implying it won't be like Ursula 20hours merc quest for all the new blades >create 5 new DLC blades >lock it behind ursula merc missions.
100 hours DLC!
Benjamin Price
>It's probably going to be prequel Torna DLC
Dylan Sanchez
Does Pyra ever reciprocate Rex's feelings? It honestly feels a bit one-sided to me.
Luis Jones
Just like how you don't need to play XC1 to understand XC2 right? I won't believe it until I see it.
David Harris
STOP FEEDING ME YOUR RUSE CRUISE REEEEEEEEEEEEE
Cooper James
>Torna DLC >with playable Malos+Shin+the Torna gang Im ready.
Angel Mitchell
Have you SEEN the way she looks at him? If those aren't the eyes of someone in love I don't know what is.
Just report them, if they refuse to properly spoiler tag their posts, it means they're spoiling maliciously and are in violation of Veeky Forums rule #3.
Believe it or don't, we actually do have janitors and mods here.
Carson Robinson
7/10 would play
Noah Nelson
But the thing is. All those blades have mouths.
Luke Gomez
Are you going to stick your dick in Boreas's mouth?
Tyler Morris
I'm not sure what you are implying but I don't think I like it
Leo Thomas
why do people keep acting like the XC1 connection was so unpredictable people were saying things like "Shulk is the architect" since the game's reveal, it felt like an incredibly formulaic way to connect the game to the first one. maybe i'm a bit dissatisfied since i wanted to go into XC2 to experience a new setting and world like when I played XC1 and XCX and ended up with a rehash of 1's setting and enemies that shoehorns in more elements from Takahashi's pile of novel manuscripts that he'll never get around to finishing. repost for forgotten spoilers, sort of.
Joseph Scott
How bout sticking your dong in Kassandra?
Julian Lewis
>sacrifices himself in a giant mech while slamming a fucking titan into the world tree RIP ;_;
Jason Thomas
Think he's the Narrator voice from Thomas the Tank Engine.
Cooper Wood
No fucking way
Ryder Price
That doesn't necessarily mean love though. She's just very protective of him.
Owen Brooks
So how do quest blades work? Once you finish the quest you get to pick who get them? Who gets which if so?
Logan Davis
>Pyra stops Estelle from undressing Kos-Mos FUCKING BITCH
Hudson Nelson
You get a special deactivated core crystal which then reactivates after x battles. Then you just pick which driver you want to use it. I'm not an expert on proper allocation though.
Nathan Robinson
The bad news for me is: >The new story can also be played without even completing the original story first, but it would be more enjoyable if players have finished it For me it pretty much confirm it's a Torna prequel like I feared with the symbol on the season pass, not an epilogue and that you'll most likely not be able to use the blades you grinded for in the new story content.
Noah Martin
It honestly wasn't formulaic at all. Klaus using the Conduit, which sent half of his body as well as Galea into the Xenoblade 1 dimension was very clever imo. It is a new setting, a new world, and a new plot, but it connects to the original solely by way of the experiment, and it sheds a new light on Zanza and Klaus' motivation. In the original, I felt like them trying to humanize Zanza at the very end felt forced, but now I think it is very earned.
Evan Miller
you sure it's not a hot springs episode?
Gabriel Murphy
Maybe when the last DLC is released, we will get something like an after story epilogue scene. I could live with that.
Luke Taylor
Hopefully it means that you can select it from the menu at any time, but by >more enjoyable It means that it's an epilogue of sorts, that you shouldn't play until you finish the game.
Jonathan Collins
>Takahashi says it would be alright for players to just focus on the main story, as each Driver already has a very unique and strong Blade, and the game is balanced enough to let such players clear the game. This is actually true. You can beat the game without using any gacha blades in combat, and only using handouts and non-rolled blades.
Hunter Ross
This game is very doable with generic and side quest blades but it's much less fun
Michael Ortiz
I actually found it more fun. There are enough non-rolled blades that you can get a decent party setup.
Oliver Gomez
Most of the really cool/fun blades are only gatcha. Without rolling your stuck with the twins, vess and store story stuff
Julian Hill
>he doesnt know about orb mastery
Heh you are 500 years to early kid.
Luis Wright
Without rolling, you get Sheba Roc Wulfric Aegaeon Kassandra
You need to roll at least one random blade for each of Vess Praxis and Theory Herald
Gavin Bell
I just got Herald and didn't roll anything from the time I got her core to the time I checked on her to see if she unlocked.
This theory of yours is flawed. Unless you mean you need to get the proper skills to break the wall
James Lewis
I'm almost ready to quit this game. I suck shit at JRPGs so I've barely been squeezing by, but Ch 4 has me at the end of my rope. As if the hilarious desert factory shit wasn't bad enough, I have to fight this fucking level 33 Security Turkin that pushes my shit in instantly even though I'm level 35. What's the strat to get past this miniboss?
Dominic King
Equip tank blades on Rex and Nia and hope of for the best.
Robert Cook
You need Earth 4 or 5 to break the wall Wulfric can only get one below that without his affinity quest, which requires an earth check he can't make on his own at that point. You need at least Earth 1 on some other blade to break the wall.
Jaxson Davis
Can I have Perun and Electra please?
I want to be off this ride.
Mason Nelson
Alternatively make Nia tank and Rex a healer.
Colton Morales
Idiot. Do the opposite. Nia is still kit out to be a healer
Justin Garcia
There's a very likely chance that boosters help you get higher ranked blades. I just pulled my second 4 star blade from a rare when I was at +12 on justice. Oddly enough it wasn't an element that justice reflects.
AND HOLY SHIT I JUST PULLED ELECTRA WITH NO MODIFIERS ON A RARE CRYSTAL
Jonathan Adams
Malos is so understanding and nice to his boyfriend :)
