Where exactly Orthros or whatever the third core is called went? In the first game, Saga or Gears?

>Japanese Nia's touchaku when you fast travel
I'm in love with her.

Funny cause Godfrey was what rares should have been instead of brokenly OP cancer sacks

Chase Torres
Sumpkin at the Torigoth farms. Love Raspberry at the fast travel point north of the Mor Ardain docks, where the seal for Zenobia is. Turn around when you warp there and there's an agronomy point near the rock wall.

>salvaging with salvaging mastery stack to lvl 19 together >can't skip this field skill each time I go jump
Is the devs dumb? How come you can skip field skill to open chest, forestry, mineralogy etc. but not other field skills like salvaging mastery?
Kevin Sullivan
user thank you for that.
Also, just to verify, as you said the Attachment accessories boost the auto attack damage right?
So would you say that, they actually offer the most damage out of all the buff accessories?
Lucas Taylor
It's Alvis.
Ryder Nguyen
It's speculated that Ontos is actually Alvis, since the Monado shares a lot of similarities to the Aegis.
Easton Brown
Do you even need to ask how retarded they are?
Just reposting his shit. Experiment and find out like he did.
Cameron Turner
Should I just kill all my 2-crown blades if I'm trying to make room for big scouting sessions?
Jaxson Morris
keep 3 with element check ,then kill anything that does not have any extra Field Skill
Ian Cook
Who has the best Bladebutt?
Cooper Collins
What about merc-exclusive field skills?
Matthew Richardson
...
Gabriel Parker
If it doesn't have 3 skills it goes to the grinder
Thomas Ortiz
Keep your 3 element/field skills then 2's if you don't have 3 for each driver + 3 anywhere for rex. Keep your merc shit Don't screw your elemental coverage
Finish their affinity chart for books worth 3000 weapon points That's how I maxes nia's bitball healing in ch3
Lucas Ortiz
...
Owen Martin
Something I noticed while replaying the game is that Rex's mom is wearing the same kind of clothing the people of Tantal wear. Given what we discover about the Tantalese people, do you think we'll get some exploration into that with the DLC, or do you think it'll remain as is?
Thomas Martin
Oh and don't toss out weapons that have break/topple/launch/smash. It's annoying to pull the right weapon in the right element. The desire sensor can tell when you fucked up
Andrew Jones
AND MAKE SURE THEY DON'T HAVE A LUK MOD/TREASURE SENSOR/SALVAGE MASTERY
MOST IMPORTANT THING!!!
Justin Edwards
What do the first 2 do? How do I know if they have it?
David Baker
go away
James Miller
I thought it all just meant you needed to be of Tornan descent to use Addam's Tornan locks.
Eli Torres
Hit right bumper once. The second page of the blade info has its modifier listed below strength. Made's mod affects the driver's stats. It's the foundation to 999 luck pulls. Treasure sensor increases item drop rate. It's good for when you want to go get chips and shit
Angel Ross
Alright, thanks.
Books only come from 3s right? Unless I misread your first message.
Michael Lopez
Imagine if this actually happened during her runaway.
Ethan Diaz
Gramps said that it only worked if you were Leftherian (which is why Jin initially contacted Bana for a Leftherian salvager), which is interesting since Rex wasn't born in Leftheria. Maybe since he was there for so long the crest recognized him as being from there or something.
Camden Wilson
You get more books the higher the crown count. Always max affinity before releasing. It's ~4k gold to pouch item them to rank A trust then merc batches of 6 to rank S
Elijah Allen
Where the fuck are royal guard barracks?
John Morales
He says that, but it could also just mean you had to be of Tornan descent. We know it admitted any random person from the village, and nobody from Tantal would ever have gone there. We do see Zeke use one of the crests in Genbu's crown though. I don't think the lock would have checked Rex's residency papers but then forgotten to update itself after he moved out, so it's awkward if the lock is meant to be genetic and specific to the islands when he's seemingly not from there.
Benjamin Martin
Warp to the Fonsa Myma harbour and walk upstairs, I think.
Ryan Hill
It'd be easier to keep track if you could mark favorites or something. How many merc missions does it typically take to go from A to S?
Elijah Cruz
So I'm postgame now, I think I can use up my inn XP now to level, mainly to boost Luck Stat a bit for getting the last rare blades. Or am I missing anything if I level now?
Parker Moore
If I have Sheba on __Zeke, what healers should I run on Nia?
Bentley Gray
Xenoblade chronicles more like NTR chronicles
Luis Gutierrez
It depends. Whenever you send out a Blade on a merc mission, it picks around 3 nodes to gain 50% in. Problem is, a few node types can't gain progress through merc missions like that.
For example, for generics, you have to do "deal x damage in one hit" and "complete x merc missions" manually.
Evan Gutierrez
Give deal damage better chips
Isaac Collins
Ursula, Boreas, Floren, Vess, KOS-MOS, depending on what elements your team needs.
Jacob Evans
Not too many? Ursula is based
Jack Richardson
Wait, if you give Blades a better chip, they'll be able to get the "deal x damage in one hit" nodes through merc missions? That's pretty amazing, I didn't know that.
Luke Smith
...
Jayden Collins
I want to protect those hips.
Nathan Butler
Female healers. So everyone except Floren and Boreas
Charles White
>ywn touch those ears
Owen Taylor
I only have Nim, Kora and Dahlia. Ursula and Adenine ended up on Zeke because of corespamming, is it worth replacing Dahlia with Boreas or Dromarch? I heard the AI plays like shit with Dahlia.
Daniel Sanders
Stop hoarding and overdrive Ursula
Hunter Roberts
Is she that good?
I haven't even started her chart
Alexander Perez
...
Jace Peterson
Will repeatedly travel to the same skip travel point change the weather? If not, then how do I force a weather?
Ian Taylor
Jump between titans
Nolan Moore
you have to warp to a different Titan and go back
Anthony Mitchell
Well. She heal the whole party for 40% everytime you blade switch her. Give her blade switch V and you're good.
Nathaniel Perez
Hey, /xgg/, any tips for using Morag? I just got her, and I'd love to use her. I don't think I need two tanks in my party though, and I'm thinking that Tora should be replaced, but I'm not sure. I had been controlling Nia up to now, and I was also wondering how necessary healing is. Is the AI reliable enough to control Nia?
Ethan Smith
Actually this doesn't work. I gave some generic blade with that node a strong core chip (600 to 900+ auto attack) and it still doesn't clear it if you send it to merc mission. This is the same user complaining from last thread. Doesn't work you have to do it manually. Maybe it depends if its an attacker or not but still annoying as fuck even though its fast to just equip it and wack a monster.
Jaxon Cooper
it's a stretch but Rex's father could have been Leftherian since we hardly see him in the cutscene
Eli Evans
Heals party on switch, heals party, good healing specials, nuts Ice for chain bursts. Bretty tasty.
Just beeee urself. You can stomp the games with only story blades or even 1 crown commons Later on you can crit heal meme. Depending on the fights, you can get away with just running a bitball with heal switch and it'll be enough Party roles are a meme anyway. You can make Morag/Tora an attacker perfectly fine. Yeah the AI does good enough.
Josiah Flores
She's an agility tank with two plot-mandated agility blades. In late game she can have trouble keeping aggro if you only focus her entirely on agility, but that's not a huge issue where you're at. Also possible. I can't remember if we got a clear look at his clothes.
Landon Brown
Dude agi tank lmao AI Nia works fine as long as you don't put bad healers like Adenine on her Prepare to dump Morag as soon as you get Pi anyway as Pi is infinitely better
William Fisher
I got adenine on Nia, what's the problem? You can still charge attack to heal
Hudson Harris
She doesn't heal squat and is always stuck on her, if you want wind healer RNG Boreas
Juan Walker
Adenine isn't so much a bad healer as that she isn't really a healer at all. Her passives boost damage and her only way of healing is spawning HP potions, so Pyra is about as much of a healer as she is.
John Brown
...
Anthony Evans
Adenine is actually a lot better on Rex because she's kind of a support DPS rather than a healer. She offer no heals other than potions but give the whole party massive support damage by boosting the weakness damage of the enemy. She also offer a 100% drop rate bonus and her level 2 and 3 break guards.
Lincoln Reed
Does she even like fish
James Edwards
Yep, favorite type.
Hunter Edwards
>Hey Nia have this raw fish >*hiss*
She likes potato salad
Noah Bailey
Does anyone else find Blade Nia rather lackluster in the gameplay department?
It's a healer blade only Rex can equip and it has no topple/break/launch/smash skills at all
Blake Baker
Where can I find Honeypot Grotto in Gormott?
Carson Thompson
>Use rare Blade >The more I start liking them But not Vess though Vess's JP voice makes my ears bleed
Andrew Lopez
She has the strongest heal, auto heal the party at max affinity and her blade arts put a shield on you that turn any damage dealt to you into heal What's more to ask?
Parker Nguyen
Why does no one ever actually check their blades' skills? Class isn't the only thing that matters. Adenine isn't a good healer. She works best on whoever is your DPS, because all her skills are damage or droprate based, with no healing passives or specials, so in this case, Zeke is the best option for her.
Jaxon Clark
Not Zeke since the best wind blade for him is Zenobia.
Luke Martinez
WE ARE
Oliver Wright
Heal on switch like ursula with launch skill. No one is dumb enough to actually stay on the healer for more than 5 sec. The barrier heal is pretty useless.
Jayden Gutierrez
It's so you can finally kick Nia out of the main party. They fucked up the party mechanics so that's really the only thing they could do short of just handing out crit builds as part of the plot.
Daniel Perry
Explore gormott. You'll find it. You need to build up your mental map of the area
Gavin Diaz
Flowers and trees near the transition between the left and right sides.
Blake Myers
I just don't want to remove a driver that can raise trust on your other blades and hold some decent field skills. If it was faster to swap I'd probably use her more.
Lincoln Bell
When an affinity node asks for Blade Combos, what exactly counts?
I was testing on a named monster and ended up getting 4 orbs and after killing the monster with a chain attack, I checked and was at 2/10, don't remember but there were some steps in the combos where I didn't use Sheba at all.
I tried again, did light > light > water, water > water > water, water > water > dark and went to 7/10. I'm aware of the overlap, I was testing if Sheba being in the party changed anything, and it seems like it did, but I'm still unsure of how I got 5 ticks for only doing 3 combos.
Joseph Richardson
I have been using Adenine on Zeke for 100 hours and have never once needed Memenobia. Not everyone will have access to Zenobia, and judging from complaints last thread, most people won't. Zenobia has extremely selfish buffs that do nothing for the rest of the party, while Adenine not only has party buffs and aggro reduction, but also an invaluable drop rate booster. And if we go down this path, technically speaking there's no reason to ever use anyone other than Tora.
