Two questions after reading the guide:

1) If I mix in afinity missions between story missions, I shouldn't have to grind, right?

2) Should I be investing in AMs? So far have just been using drops.

13 hours in, just finished Chapter 4, and am doing some missions before taking on the next story mission. Don't want to hit a brick wall and be underleveled or anything.

It levels up the skills attached to their weapons and armor. When you get new manufacturers, it will start with the light armors, then at levels 2 and 3 it will unlock medium and heavy. 4 and 5 add new skills and level up existing skills.

He means for sale, not on sale.

Collector's Editions are not usually up for sale after the game is out. It's usually a sign that the game did not sell well.

It's because its on the WiiU. If it would've been on PS4 it would've sold out, but who honestly cares?

I'm thinking looking for Mia, since I don't have that specific party member yet.
There's also the cat(?) AM that I didn't get yet.
Could farm Ares.
Could farm affinity with people and get missions done.
Possibly round out the collectipedia since it's almost done.

So faggots, what do you think?

can someone update the pastebin.
there's a better and easier way to get beagfly squash.

There's a cave on Beachside Trove which has around 20 item drops of which there's beagfly squash.

Jump off the probe location from the cliff onto the beach.

You should land near a yellow marker/treasure.

Hug the wall to the right until you find a cave opening which leads to another opening inside where the item drops are.

Augments are not permanent so you can swap them in and out. Are exp augments worth it? Probably in the long run but for the short term I can make do with just non-augmented exp boosts from shop gear.

Focus probes on places with sight seeing. 1 location with a sight seeing spot is better than an A rank spot. Booster probes and duplicator probes are nice too, linking them up effectively of course. The opening area to Notcilum gives me some good revenue even with G1 probes I'm getting 40k+

>>125098330
For some reason I don't get Miranium when my console is off. It just goes from my last save, am I doing something wrong by just saving and then turning it off?

That sounds like the Attack Augments section of Skell Weapon Augments, make sure you're in Frame Augments. All you need is 1 of the materials for the augment to show in the menu, and the materials for it are very common.

>>125099114
Yeah, just stand on a ledge above enemy to trigger above bonus (pay attention to the position indicator on bottom right of screen). Light Skells can equip 3 frame augments, while Medium/Heavy can equip only 2. So you probably only need 1 of each for above/behind augments.
The scythe seems to be better to me, especially if you equip all ATK2 armor for the skell for the bonus beam damage on each one. It does 2 hits and deals extra damage from behind.

Honestly, the best parts of the game is the first 30 hours where you're running around on foot trying to find out how the fuck you get to some places. I loved climbing up the cliffs in Primordia to drop down on to a plateau where a treasure was.

I'm so glad I went to Sylvalum and explored it before I got the Skell.

Up to level 60 at least with full slayer augments (pick one type for whatever you want to kill). Mech is a good choice because mech enemies drop equipment for skells.

Scythe is only 50 fuel and one shots most monsters. Anything it doesn't kill, Megabeam Slash can finish off.

I hate all you pedophiles that love her, and I hope you all have slow and painful deaths.

I resent the fact she is required for so many mission.

I hate her and her fucking fetish for Skells.

I resent the fact that she's often the last one standing when my team gets rekt, but still can't kill the damn boss even when she has a sliver of HP left.

I agree to a point, but I also think that all that time spent walking is what makes getting the Skell feel so good. I was 60 or so hours in before I got my Skell, and had pretty much seen all I could find, and was sort of lamenting the fact that because the world was so big, I barely recognized any of it. I couldn't tell where I was in relation to anything and most of my traveling was spent staring at the map rather than the screen. Then, you get the Skell, and suddenly everything adds up and you have a much better perspective of the world as a whole and it feels super great.

The lack of information on drop locations is probably the worst thing about this game. It doesn't give you any information other than which continent and then expects you to find them. If people weren't compiling lists online I wouldn't have finished even half my gathering quests, especially the ones that require certain weather or the really rare stuff. Go to an area and hunt around for a bit and just because of a bit of bad luck you might conclude it's not there and then never find it at all. It's a really stupid design point and makes gathering quests infuriating.

I've been farming him with my level 50 skell and my party in 30s, them just being AIs
skell gear makes farming faster, but you actually only need to enter the fight and make a kill to get your most reward tickets through the items he drops

a guide to getting blade medals to fight him is here:

>1. Hire three level 9 players
>2. Kill Goetia in time trial
>3. Go back and release the three BLADEs

>You have to rehire them
>When you hire a player they start out as "Scout Lv1".

Basic missions are a no-go.

I was doing the affinity missions where you get Bozé to join you, and the cave at the end has three or so lootable things in them, right on top of some level 40 indigens. I wasn't going to fuck with them, so I passed them buy and figured I could pick them up later.

actually, I take that back, you almost certainly get more reward tickets when you get more kills on him

You probably want to level up if you want a better time, although I can't imagine it'll do a whole lot.
Levels don't seem to add much that late into the game. The only real difference is you can get an upgraded Skell at 50.
As for the orbs, he takes reduced damage so long as a single orb is up. I do not fucking know how the four orbs around the shield orb die, but I do know I occasionally can deal actual damage to them. I don't know the trigger, and they don't really deal damage, so I mostly ignore them entirely.
Just stick with the ones that fly around, because they actually deal damage and are annoying.
Typically, that's when I'd dive into the Skell. Since I could do everything before then on foot, I didn't want to risk the Skell exploding, because that fucks you over hard.

The next part is hard as fuck, but if you have multiple Skells still, it should be doable. There's no real strategy for that one, just, go at it.
I actually recommend getting your entire party out of their Skells IMMEDIATELY as the next part starts, because you can die and regroup without blowing your shit up.

Just see what works for you, and know we've been there. Good luck.

To me, this is giving up. But I cannot stand having to skip and load through 3 minutes of bullshit just to attempt the fight.

>>125110316
Pretty much the same stuff you killed before, maybe a few levels higher (the one you get is incredibly strong the first time you use it but basically only marginally better than on foot, you're not invincible with it)

After chapter 6. Same with the flight module, after 9.

Getting in late. I've been playing the game for a few hours but I have one question:

Do the Skells make ground combat completely irrelevant, or will I still be using ground combat up until the very end of the game?

>>125112282
Not really. A lot of people say Ground Combat does more damage faster. Some say Skells do.

The function of Skells in this game is usually to give you a fighting chance against gigantic monsters that would other wise stomp you into dust, even if they are a lower level.

there is content later that is worthwhile or necessary with ground combat only

but for the most part, when you get your skell it kind of blows ground combat out of the water for most stuff

Just finished the game, so
Spoilers:

What the fuck was that bullshit? If Elma had a body in the lifehold the whole time why didn't she just take her body out of stasis before, remotely? If it's not possible to do from outside the lifehold, then why the fuck not? They could have put in some kind of system that wakes her up in an emergency. That bullshit about transferring consciousness could only have been come up with by complete retards. If individual consciousness/memories/DNA can be stored and retrieved then it can be copied, which is essentially what the mimeosomes are. What is the point of 'transferring' when a flesh and robot copy can exist at the same time? That isn't even transferring, it's copying and then murder.

And why is it so outrageous that the mimeosomes can operate without the lifehold data things? Was it supposed to somehow be streaming consciousness to the robots? If that were the case it would have been extremely simple to use the signal to locate the lifehold, and Elma would have known about this besides also would completely contradicting the whole transfer idea. I don't think I even need to point how how stupid it is they put in the ability for the life generator thing to instantly grow monsters to defend itself but not think to put in some kind of tracking signal/device.


Then, the true ending ends up being fucking L O S T?

This game is just fucked.

>>
>>125112737
Here's my theory on the end and the game's plot as a whole [MASSIVE SPOILERS]

So basically throughout the entire game, we're consistently told about all these different races that crash-landed on Mira and are for some reason or another, unable to leave because of what is essentially a magic barrier. The Ganglion explicitly mention the barrier, but the insect race say they crashed here, Professor B can't return to whatever time he's from because of some barrier, basically everyone who aren't native to Mira (only the Nopon) are stuck there. However, while some crashed there, like humans, the Ganglyon say they were somehow magically teleported there. On top of that, we have all the weird shit that's going on that people blame the planet for - all alien races being able to communicate with each other, the mimeosomes not dying when their servers are clearly fucked, shit like that. Lastly, we have Lao returning from the dead at the very end of the game. Seeing his resurrection gave me this idea; I remembered after the Ch 11 boss fight, he said "Not allowed to die, huh? Even if I killed myself I'd just come back"

Mira is actually hell. The White Whale (SYMBOLISM OF A FUTILE PURSUIT) was destroyed trying to escape, and all the characters in NLA are the souls or whatever of those on-board it. Similarly, the Ganglyon lost the war with whoever they were fighting against and were sent to Mira. The Wrothians are mercenaries who lost a battle, could be the same as Ganglyon. We don't know enough about the other races to know why they're there, but could have died in assorted space crashes. Then we have L'cirufe, literally an anagram for Lucifer. Considering the heavy religious influences in Xenogears/Saga, I don't think this is too far-fetched
>>
I just had to chase after Zu Pharg on foot since my skell died at the end of the first phase

fuck me
>>
>>125113178
so you're saying it's reasonable to think that they had the foresight to arm and shield the lifehold to the teeth just in case it gets separated somehow from every single functioning robot but not put in a fucking tracking device they could access?
>>
UH

YEAH

>>125113416
cliche and stupid
>>
>>125113543
UH UH UH UH
>>
>>125113416
They are engineering new humans even without the lifehold stuff. These are not people concerned with metaphors.

>>125113503
It's substantially more likely that it would come under attack in space than that it would crash on a habitable alien world and be separated so drastically as to be invisible, but regardless. The fact that it was broken all along is also a fairly obvious explanation for why they couldn't properly track it without even getting into whatever the fucked up space around the planet is doing.

Mira seems far too nice a place dangerous plants and animals aside to be hell. Perhaps it's heaven? Or maybe it's because of Zanza bullshit and IS connected to XBC. We won't really know until the sequel. There WILL be a sequel. They left so many questions unanswered at the end.

When you finish getting an entire class line to rank 10, you unlock the arts and weapons for all classes.

It's either that or the planet is some sort of manifestation of the supervillain "Collector."

Just in case anyone needs a way to level up classes fast end-game as well as some great income to boot

>have level 50 Amdusias
>farm point 406 mechanoids in Syvalum for an orange quality phoenix back weapon
>go to the top point in Noctilum
>inside the giant flower is a level 90 tyrant bug and a bunch of 60 ones
>pop your phoenix weapon to start to kill all the trash, using the +skell stat skill from galaxy knight helps if you're not doing enough damage
>finish off the bug tyrant

You'll literally get a couple class levels per kill. You'll find yellow quality weapons this way too really easy, and if you sell everything you can make 40-130k per kill. Only takes a minute or two per run.

Having treasure seeker on your armor helps find better equipment for more money, but it's not a big deal.

The soul voice bonuses applies to your character or only to the character that triggered it?
For example, will I be the one who gets +25% critical chance, or will it be Elma if she uses a ranged attack?

Bonus question: can multiple characters trigger a soul voice, or is it on a first-come, first-served basis? Let's say Lin has a "+100% to melee attacks", if I use a melee art, does it stop there or can another character use a melee art too to trigger the bonus?

It wasn't broken all along, it was apparently functioning perfectly except the one part that was holding their consciousnesses. And if communication between their comm devices work than any tracking system would work as well, even simple radio signals would have been enough.

Hey, I remember people saying that they couldn't find Lin's fifth heart-to-heart but I just found it. It's in the commercial district, but it won't be there until you hear about it from a Man-on on their ship, the NPC who tells you about it is in the same room as the two Prone marriage quests

Geolibrium
Purge
Starfall Rondo/Blossom/Blade
Starlight Duster

last 2 arts are filler (Jetstream and Stellar Ray) until I max out either Eagle for more raw damage with sniper attacks or Jaguar for buffs.

I'm actually considering using the minigun as my ranged weapon just so i can use Barrier and Cool Off.

Cool Off gives you 2250 tp for consuming an aura, that's rad as fuck.

Yeah, the one part that would have been communicating externally was broken and it's evidently designed not to allow remote communication as a security measure. How funny.
In my opinion the bigger issue is that they let the walking password go out on dangerous missions.
>>
So is the transition from endgame to postgame basically just "farm enough Blade Tokens to do Telethia Plume, do Telethia Plume for tickets, spend tickets on good Skell?" You can't use Skells in Time Attack but all time attack gets you is better Skells so I guess that's a wash, but is there any way to significantly increase the power of your Ground Gear without the uber-Skells?

what does skell armor for ground combat do?

does it even do anything in a skell?
>>
>>125115721

Far as I know the bonuses apply to the character performing the art, not you. As a result you should tailor your soul voices to the artes that your allies have. Responding to soul voices also grants affinity so this can help when grinding that up. Unless you can gift people collectables like in the Wii game.

I also think it is a first come first served basis since I've had a few times when the window for a soul voice has been less than half of what it normally is, meaning it's probably another party member snagging it.

>Far as I know the bonuses apply to the character performing the art
Yeah I guess you're right, but I'd have loved to get to bonus for myself, because as you said, it boils down to tailoring your voices for others, and conversely not having melee-only arts with a team of "buffers".

>spoiler
Nope, it only increases by doing missions and soul voices this time.

>>125119486
When they change the sky the one you're targeting seems to get massive buffs.

The dark one's gimmick seems to be that he can drain all of your TP, go invulnerable for about 15 seconds and one shot you with that really fast dashing attack. He also changes the sky way more often.

The white one's gimmick is that he heals himself a lot and moves around a lot so you'll find yourself chasing him around.

They both share some moves like that AoE multi-hit spin move that makes you flinch a bunch of times.

So basically kill the dark one first, always. Preferably before he buffs himself. He's the bigger threat by far and the faster you kill him the easier of a time you'll have.

Some of this might be inaccurate, it's just what I gathered from fighting them. It's pretty hard to pay attention to everything while fighting in this game.

I don't understand how Shadowrunner works.
All arts that have a directional boosts damage description just deal more damage from a specific direction, but Shadowrunner doesn't deal damage, it's just an Aura. Does it increase all your damage as long as it is active? Because i don't see any difference in my damage.

I wish they'd give you fucking tooltips explaining exactly what an art does instead of trying to fit it all into 50 characters.

When you get skell flight mode, you can go do FN site 207 (top noctilum). Slightly north of there, three crocodiles spawn, these crocodiles are extremely weak and are easily beaten by level 30 mechs. They give 800 level 60 exp each. for a level 35 character, that translates to 1 level/minute+.

You can use them to craft augments. See if there's anything you want at the arms manufacturer terminal. If not then go ahead and sell. Some of the drops from level 60+ mobs can be used to make level 60 skells so make sure you don't sell those.

Fuck

Saw a similar thread on reddit, I'd say you're SOL.
I would never trust a USB-powered external storage on PC for anything else than pure backup, so on a console it's clearly out of the question.

Is there any reason to do the collectepedia outside of completionists sake? The BP it gives is shit and not worth the effort of finding the items.

>>125124239
When the I tried to start the game with HDD not detected, I can't select to continue. So the save data is not saved into system memory.

If by Nintendo ID you mean that every time I save it's uploaded to the server, I don't think so. Or else offline mode wouldn't be available.
>>125124698
Yeah I guess I have to redo a whole week worth of progress.

What class should I pick for Elma if I want her to be full attack power?

Also, should I switch classes once I reach level 10 with one? I'm a rank 10 Astral something.

Party members can't change classes, they just have a higher maximum class rank than you of 20 instead of 10.

What's the difference between Total Ranged/Melee Attack and regular Ranged/Melee attack? I'm assuming the two are the min and max you can hit with stability helping you hit towards total attack.

How many buttons are there in a skell? Celica must've pressed hundreds of them by now.

I think normal is just the base attack stat of your weapon while total is the sum of your weapon, gear and augs and passive skills.

The answer is always in the sub-menu. It's amazing you could find the fashion gear slots in the first place without also seeing how to remove gear at the same time.

Oskar the summer squall completely caught me off guard, he's only lv11 but hits like a lv20.
>>
>>125126371
it's more movetypes. a lot of people try and just buy the highest defense armor at first and that lowers your gravity res by a lot and you get shit on by those moves for example. which is why some seem harder than others
>>
Is there a way to talk directly to people you're doing a mission with? Like some kind of chatbox?
Or do I have to send a message to everyone in the squad?

I fucking hate the soundtrack in this game holy shit.
XC1's soundtrack was so good. What happened?
>>
>>125126954
Different composer. Hiroyuki Sawano mainly compose for anime, not game. And it shows.
>>
>>125126954
This soundtrack is amazing apart from the LA theme desu

Considering the first Xenoblade Chronicles was the same way, no.

What does it mean when a weapon image has P.Back Only on it?
>>
>>125126870
So which armor type is a good one to buy? I'm not at the point where I have a skell yet either, do you switch to skell armor when you get one?
>>
>>125126954
Sawano can only do shitty vocals in broken English.

>>125126954
The game has a couple of good tracks
>>
>>125127425
it takes a couple of hours to write background vocals that you can't even hear properly, what a surprise!
>>
>>125126954
>was so good
Besides like 15 tracks, it wasn't that good, and I think most of the tracks in this game are excellent.

Is skell wear worth it? It seems useful since I stay in my skell like 95% of the time, but the stats are just awful.

I imagine that I'd be essentially useless on foot wearing it if the worst scenario were to happen and my skell exploded or something.
>>
Press L & A
>>
>>125127938
It's useless on foot, but you're never on foot, so who cares. If something is strong enough to blow up your skell, you're not going to beat it on foot anyway.

If I'm in my skell most of the time after level 30 why should I even bother ranking my character?
>>
Best skills for being in a skell?

Is the Galactic Knight stat boosting one the only one that matters?
>>
>>125127939
DON'T PRESS L & A!

Keep using your skell and find out the hard way.

has anyone made progress on the miralife trading card quest?

The site i'm using translates first one as: 商業エリア・ノース第1ストリート右上のリベアナ(日中).
commercial area North first street upper-right corner of the Ribeana (during the day):

But i'm not finding a NPC. I've checked along the north side of the comercial district for both sections.
>>
>>125127989
Good point, dunno why I didn't think of that
>>
Outfitter seems like the most useless division.

Dunnot why I picked it.
>>
>>125127989
Is there any on-foot postgame at all?
>>
>>125127356

You buy armor and tailor your arts based on what tyrant you're trying to fight. There is no "general" armor. Although you can probably wear anything throughout the story mode. Shit, I beat the game with the level 20 crafted equipment.
>>
>>125128153
oh North first street is Founder's street. There we go.
>>
>>125128153
Jeeze, can't you do anything without a guide?

No wonder gaymestop sells this game with a strategy guide -- for children like you!
>>
i finished all my squad mission tasks but i still seem to be making reward tickets somehow
whats up with that
also is there anything you're supposed to do once you done all the squad tasks?
>>
>>125128226
Yeah, squad missions.
>>
>>125128262
It's almost as if this game deliberately gives vague hints of where certain items are or how to do certain quests just to sell guidebooks or something.
>>
>>125127989

This misinformation keeps getting spread.

There are tyrants in the game that have specific Skell-wrecking one shot attacks that you have to fight on foot.

You see it all the time when people ask how their level 60 Skell got blown up in one hit by some level 50 tyrant.
>>
>>125128226
definian downfall has a pretty hard part that's on foot only. infiltrating a base filled with level 55+
>>
What is the best way to use arts? ONLY for a soul voice? When the cooldown has refreshed?

Sometimes my party members will literally not soul voice and my combos will sit maxed out. I feel like I have to use stuff, to build morale, so they'll call out for me to use stuff. Which really sucks because I'll use a melee attack, then elma will say USE A MELEE ATTACK.
>>
>>125128437
He's talking about story missions dipshit.

It's a combination of putting emphasis on exploration in the game and just being absolute kikes.

Can you really not cancel affinity missions? So my game is basically bugged since I'm stuck in an affinity mission that requires skells when I am not far enough to get a skell
>>
>>125129389
Why do you think you need a skell anon?
>>
>>125129576
Because I have to kill the monsters with a skell weapon or I don't get credit

Where are they? I looked at the pastebin and the google doc but I didn't find any info on any of those street conversations.
