>Zeke not using a double eyepatch sleeping mask

Floren is best waifu edition

first for not separating doraibas from their special bureidos

Everything is founded upon experience. Learn from your mistakes.

Shitty OP Tumblr picture. Great.

what is Nia doing here?

You think he ever writes to his family back home?

He's probably insufferable on Thanksgiving.

He probably doesn't even think about them at all. Which will be funny later when XC3 has the worlds collide and forces the issue.

reminder to feed praxis cake

Do you think she did it with him?

Who hasn't she done it with?

What makes you say that?
Someone's going to have to have explain what happened to his brother and why he has two sisters now.

i think being forced to listen to the gladiator taunt you is some sort of mental torture perhaps viol;ating the geneva convention

>Rex's idea of a gift
And she 'fell in love' with this

Gladiator?

TAKE THAT COBBA!

Can you roll a common with Fortitude?

why is she such a slut?
what even is her backstory? I forget

the japanese voice is particularly violent

Spoiler this shit, nigga

It's super night time. no one actually playing the game right now should be here.

its nearly 11am though?

Does anyone know if sending blades on merc missions will fill out affinity nodes such as walking X amount?

No.

But it's nearly 4am senpai

I think it fills them out at random.

I'm pretty sure she fell in love with this actually.

>3 non-fixed rares left
>Haven't even gotten Zeke yet

It's really depressing. The 10/3 limit was so stupid. It's still a 2hr/6hr expedition or more

Just keep rolling your common cores. By the time you read ch3, you have pretty good odds of pulling one of the rares with it.

She likes fish no?

Question!
If I equip the resurection symbol to one of my party member, does activate the resuection anytime I trigger the chain attack?
Or do I need to use it on the party member I control?
I don't have my switch right now so I can't try.

>that part where Metsu hugs Jin

How am I supposed to hate this guy? Nearly every interaction he seems like a nice dude to his friends

Oh, I'm on 8. I'm short some Fortitude trying to open the chest in World Tree and most of mine were low leveled, so I'm reading that book in Tantal to affinity up Gorg.

Beside maybe 1 cunt, there's no real "villain" in this game, and its great.

fuck off

>The 10/3 limit
wat
Awaken your goddamn inner jew and buy shops nigga.
You can get 30 more slot for feeding stuff.
So instead of 3 cake slots, you get 33, instead of 10 you get 40.

I also feel like even if Homura never shared her core with Rex, Metsu never seemed like he would've killed Rex. He just seems like a bro all around.

>Roll dozens and dozens and dozens of various kinds of core crystals on Morag
>No Newt, the last rare Blade I need
>Decide to roll a single rare core crystal on Rex
>Just got Newt
ok

Aren't you supposed to get 99 of each kind of stamp to get Ursula's level 5? Just finished her quest with only 74 looks stamps.

Is there a tier list for the rare blades?

Obviously pyra/mythra in SS tier and most main blades in S tier

>Selling a fuckton of things like old aux cores I have no use for
>Get to accessories
>Don't even bother
What were they honestly thinking

Oh goddamnit. Well I just got gold cylinders and 12 salvage so here I go I guess

Once you hit 999 accessories it just trashes whatever you pickup fampai

Got Kora on Fucking Rex too

no...you "only" need to gather 5K fans for the last concert

saviorites did nothing wrong

Kora's "quest" made me want to die.

Nim's design has grown on me, honestly.

So what's the point of a surprise strike?

Nia's Pounce is 50% ambush
Nia's Megalance Raptor raid driver art is 100%-xxx% back atk

Battle Skill
Ambush battle skill goes up to 200%
Back attack is 100%
Challenger is 80% vs higher lvl
Hunting for 40%
HP attack boost, value's probably low
Critical damage boost. Not sure if commons can get it

Aux Core
Opening Art V is 200%
Ambush Boost V is 100%
Hunter V is 40%
Indoor/outdoor atk is 40%
HP attack boost, if it works on ambush?, is 30%

Accessories
I dunno?
basic Hero vambraces gives 50% dmg vs higher lvl
Lance attachment gives 29% dmg
Ice/Optical headband gives 50% crit
Steam belt's % strength bonus?

Presuming you thread the needle out of six thousand 4 crown commons, an ambush raptor raid is somewhere in the area of 860% damage and maybe 1.375 times that if you crit I dunno how it's chunked or if each category is multiplicative. That just doesn't seem like it'll amount to dickshit when you're otherwise barfing driver arts into a 4 burst chain attack lethal.

Anyone have experience with ambush memes?

I never really cared for Surprise attack other than Innitiative to start a fight with max Affinity given. some UMO you can surprise attack

What did Rex see in Pyra anyways?

Tits

>tfw you'll never read this
why live

Although I do feel like they should have just committed and given her an actual muzzle instead of this weird uncanny human-dog face.

...

Has it ever been a significant portion of their health? I can't farm SP like I can WP so Nia's pounce is way off not to mention no 4 crowns to even start to farm the gacha for a 3 aux 3 relevant skill fucking megalance

OST but it's a youtube rip

her blade form likes fucking vegetables reeeee

I'm not sure which is the best legendary core crystal farming.

It's only use would be for killing weak normal enemies quickly. I think the clip in this tweet used some of the quick/first strike stuff.
twitter.com/hyperT7s/status/945267281273036800
Most of those effects are additive, except crit damage from headband which is separate category and multiplies everything.

any place to famr Gold Beta Scopes?? the Bat UM in Gormoth only drops Pink ones

I don't get why they won't put the OST for these games on Itunes.

I farmed the UM Ardun in Torgoth. He has a shit ton of hp so you can smash for days. With the right setup you will get 99 legendary cores in an hour or so.

probably waiting for the dlc music to be finished

Does higher rarity of it even do anything? Overclocking Bangle doesn't have any difference between the rarities, so I'm not sure if Beta Scope does either. I don't have legendary version but never had trouble breaking with the rare one.

In JP, Zeke says 覇王の心眼 which literally means "Mind's eye of the supreme ruler". The supreme ruler part is 90% of the time associated to evil stuff.
This is why "eye of shining justice" is kind of weird, moreso when they still make Zeke english chuuni "close enough" with all the chaos stuff.

>Overclocking Bangle doesn't have any difference between the rarities, so I'm not sure if Beta Scope does either.
Its not that bigger but OC B Gold over Pink does reduce more the Swap time. you visually can see the meter charger more. and Im sure Rarity does affect effects

Who the hell is ACE+ and why are they so fucking good?

So, I just started playing, and I immediately like Rex and Nia's chemistry.

Every spoiler I've seen tells me that I'm bound for disappointment.

When I checked it the bangle just sets the switch cooldown at 25%, 50%, or 75% depending if you had 1, 2, or 3 arts charged. The rarity didn't affect that.

So in that huge crater in Temperantia, there's a level 109 boss that I didn't know about. I found him at night, but I don't know if that's the actual condition for finding him. He's also the one that drops Shining Star Chips.
>Manage to get an 8 orb full burst
>KOS-MOS obliterates literally everything in the area

He is timless, what im not sure is if he is post game like other UM or he is locked after Zenobia's quest

can i not finish agate if i cant go to indol?

All quest get moved to somewhere else so no ,you dont get locked out of any quest

Well I hadn't finished Zenobia's quest and he was there. He must be a post-game superboss

ive been everywhere and i cant seem to progress though

Agate quest, as long as teh diggin sites are not RNG then the last 1 Prospect site is in Spirits Crucible

i somehow went to the spot in temperantia and didnt mine it before leaving im tired

>3 plates
Come on Tora, you can do better than that

I started running Rex as a healer and now the game is too easy, what do I do?

I always thought Chain Attack were meant to be used when the nemes was on the last legs/ 1/4 of its life, not that it goes and melts em from half the HP down

Finished the game. Was quite a blast. The last few chapters was quite the wild ride.

Whoever designed the stupid map markers and the map needs to be shot though. So was locking all of Poppi's gear behind a stupid minigame that was not fun at all. I hardly finished any blades quests because I would just give up after spending half an hour trying to reach the next waypoint and end up getting blocked by a wall and giving up.

This Rex/Pyra/Mythra relationship/love triangle is one of the most contrived bullshit I've seen in a long time. Rex and Pyra's relationship wasn't perfect, but it was at least somewhat believable. Saying Rex and Mythra's relationship was poorly developed is like saying shit isn't tasty. I've seen fucking pornos with better romantic development than whatever was going on between them.
If they're going add in the fucking choice for Rex to decide who he's in love with, why the fuck would you set up the story in a way where the only correct choice to pick was Pyra? I literally didn't get the feeling Mythra was meant to be a love interest to begin with and yet the choice was there.

Jin is the worst villain I've seen in a while. Malos was somewhat okay though. He was entertaining in a good way.

Also, what's this threesome ending I've been reading? Did I miss something in the story?

I'm 70 hours in and I don't know how to generate the element balls that spin around to let you burst. They just seem to happen occasionally.
Someone please release me from my prison of retardery.

sounds about right

>threesome
People trying to meme this as the canon ending through mental gymnastics.

when you do an elemental Combo, the last element of the combo determines what typo or orbs shows up.

after that the enemy gets resistance to that element tho

>Jin is the worst villain
cause he was not a villain you dood

It revives a party member if the person you have it equipped on is alive when you start a chain attack.

>Magical artificial person has two personalities that express differently
>They are actually the same person though, the game directly states this
>During a conversation it is brought up that this is confusing and by what name should the main character refer to them as?
>This apparently means he is choosing which one he loves??????

'Course he wasn't.

It really wouldn't be a Xeno game without one single mechanic being grossly overpowered. Even the Superbosses can be brought to death from half-health with a Full Burst.

It's about the closest thing this game has to an "Easy Mode", since it is, ultimately, an optional mechanic.

I'm surprised you think Jin was the worst and not Amalthus.
Jin was a bit too edgey at times, but his motivations and actions were somewhat fine I'd say.

The threesome stuff is because of the start screen after finishing the game. Some people are too delusional.

I think the game was designed like that then, cause even with broken builds (except JD Hana) you can just cheap away little by little after you build orbs

How the fuck does that even work though? Zeke even directly refers to the girl you call Gundam Pyra as the girl Rex is in love with. And only one of them says something that you can't hear after the credits.

I'd sooner fucking believe Rex hit his head again a wall and forgot about Pyra and ended up falling for Mythra than believe that he ended up with both of them when I doubt any of them would be okay with it.

Also, why was everyone being such a cunt to Rex during that ending scene? Rex is literally leaving Pyra behind to die and everyone is just calling him childish and immature. If Pandoria was the one that had to stay behind Zeke would be acting the same way and yet everyone is giving Rex shit for it.

Pope guy was kind of okay. I can see why he thinks the world is full of shit when he caught the soldier killing the family after treating him. He really wasn't the worst.
Jin's teleporting around at the speed of light bullshit just irked me to no end.

It is actually more subtle than that regarding Zeke and all:
Zeke didn't suggest Rex to be an adult and go away like a bitch, but rather be an adult and accept her decision, which implies that Zeke would do the same if Pandoria would do the same.

Morag had the opposite approach and wanted to thank Rex no matter his decision, so it is implied Morag wanted to at least convey her respect towards Rex in the offchance he decides to stay behind for Pyra's sake.

And Nia simply didn't say anything because she somewhat understands Rex's anguish, so she is barely there to support him.

>Meme

of course

Hand holding means they are definitely fucking

Yeah, the damage cut to elemental attacks either rewards planning ahead or actually promotes using Seal effects. Two mechanics that would otherwise be pointless if Chain Attacks were the only way to beat UMs/bosses.

On another topic, does anyone know if a blade's cooldown increase at all from S-S+? Obviously, it caps at 5, but a lot of blades get stuck at 2 or 3, even at S rank Trust. Does it go beyond that at all, or are most Shield Hammers just fucked like that?

I like how the characters that didn't participate in the earlier pep talk were the ones that do in this one
