EAT SHIT.
Or:


Storage Probes :
- Chapter 3
- Chapter 4
- Chapter 6
- Chapter 11
- Kirsty quests (x3)
- White Tree Continent : In a cave, north east of Spot 401
- Black Steel Continent : On the edge, south segment under spot 514
- Complete Collection of (blue crystal like) items in Black Steel Continent

Duplicator Probes :
- Chapter 5
- Tobias Quests (x2)
- Oblivion Canyon : Near Spot 307.

Boost Probes :
- Kirtsy quests (x3)
- Gau Shiro's quest (probably a different name in English). The quest is about Milanium (as all ofthe others)
- Hugo's quest (the guy at the back of the big weapon test center)
- Complete Collection of (blue crystal like) items in the desert of origin (first continent)


To get the final Boost 2 probe you'd need to finish the collectapedia of Cauldros, AKA a HUGE fucking pain in the ass, plus you would need to finish the second Tobias quest for a fourth Duplicator.

To be honest I feel like they should've melded some more of the affinity quests of the main group (Doug, Lao, Irina, Gwin etc.) into the main storyline. They're written pretty well it's just he problem is all of their stuff is to the side and easy to miss for the most part and hurts the narrative

Indeed. I enjoyed the affinity missions, but most of them are only mildly related to the main story (some not at all). Having the same 3 characters, one mute, shoehorned into every important event and the rest excluded got on my nerves. It's not like nobody else would have an opinion about the plot that affects all of them, but other than the very end nobody got to say anything.

Just looking at it without having tried it, the weapons just don't seem to synergize well from an arts standpoint. Knife pulls debuffs like sleep and control, support with a party heal and barrier, and stacking potential to complement the TP arts bukakke that raygun likes to lay down (Energy Source + Full Specs + Ether Blast for all mob-mowing needs). Unless I'm missing something, nothing in the arts lineup for psycho launchers readily stands out to me as complementing any of that.

So if an item is listed as "can be found in" does that mean it's the only place it can be found at? For example,
the spherical EM motor:
>Can be found in the corridor north of Weeping Whitewood, which is on the west edge of the upper part of the island, to the west of FN Site 115 and to the north of FN Site 218. Filled with high level enemies, so dodge well.
So that's the only spot? I tried looking there with no luck.

Are evasion and melee/ranged accuracy worth investing in? They seem like this game's broken-up analogue to XC's Agility stat, which could be stacked to hilariously broken levels and in some cases was required to actually hit any of the higher-leveled monsters

>>125477517
You're doing them wrong or you're doing the wrong one.

1. Start noctilum nights
2. Immediately get in your skell (don't actually move when you're in it) and press R to target the closest monster
3. Use a long/wide ranged AoE art (Ares' Agni Gattling is pretty good for this and doesn't use much fuel, it can kill the first three and not attract attention from the fourth one so you can immediately press R and use it again. I'm not sure if there's a weapon that can kill all four at once without needing to position yourself though. That might be better for this.)
4. Fly up to your left and kill the boss as fast as possible. Again Agni gattling alone can kill it without using that much fuel, but you don't necessarily NEED ares. The boss is easy enough to kill with that first super weapon you get probably.

All of this probably takes around 30 seconds when you start the mission, and you barely even need to move.

And some Misc "guides":

Arts: Gain TP XX guide.

White Mortifole feathers: Go to FN point 221 in southern Noctilum. Trigger the Mortifole one at a time; jump up and target their head-section, lock on, and kill them, one by one. Once you've done 4-5 of them, fast-travel back to the point, rinse, repeat. Be sure to jump and lock on; as while their body can drop the feathers, it drops at a reduced rate.

For Red Vigent Rock Scalp: Unfortunately, these fuckers didn't seem to have a pack that I found, so I just went to Oblivia FN 312, Between 5AM and 7PM (5-19, daytime), went north; double broke the target Berserk Vigent's skull (has two breakpoints). Each head break can drop the scalp, or blood; and the body drops it on kill at a reduced rate as well. So just double break, kill him, teleport back to 312. If the day becomes late, there is a time manip point just northwest of the FN.

Aeviter Star Wing: Travel to Sylv's FN site 406, or 408; find the sandsprint passage between the big cliff. It should be just down the hill from 406. In the passage, about half-way through, there's an opening up on the side of the wall. Fly in here, go to the back, and break the wings off the big Aeviter. When you've broke his wings, kill him, then kill his two defensive Aeviters next to him in the same manner. With the Ares 90, melee swings with the sword break the wings in 2 hits each, then hitting the tail breaks in 1~ hit. Once you've killed them, 2 should spawn near the entrance to the cavern, do the same to them. If you're the only one in the room, and behind the boss, he doesn't really seem to attack you.

An Ether Katana (pic related) drops from the Tyrant deep in the cave near Noctilum FN point 209, in the rust pool in the cave, a small crack is in the wall in the water, follow the path to the back. Be sure to break his tail(s) and kill him in a really short amount of time, as he is very powerful, goes invincible, will sleep and control you.

Level 60 gravity kata at FN 307 Tyrant.

actually you can just get out of your skell and teleport back to it, it respawns the dude while you stay at the same spot

Good weapons to pair up with photon sabers?
>>
>>125478610
I mean it's a horse a piece; if you fast-travel, it's a click on the gamepad; returning to skell makes you need to navigate menus. You can set-up the fast travel during the loot screen, can't do so with the skell bit. That's good advice for other things like the cave, though.

you just need ether def xx on your skell armor and x5 evasion for your skill xx on your ground armor

Besides dual guns?
Go with a sweet pair of psycho launchers.
Get a gravity photon saber, figure out how to get a ton of HP so you can abuse essence exchange and topple the shit out of stuff. I wouldn't bother with that one TP beam attack though since you'd be gravity focused.

>>125478805
the menu uses memorization though. once you cursor is on team > return to skell you only need to press start then A twice, you only need to get out of it after looting so you can teleport back to it
Try it out, it's a lot faster than you'd think

obviously meant skell

augments for your skells evasion by 20% 5 times on your ground armor

its called "evasion drive xx"

your skell armor uses ether def xx

So, every mim is in truth a sentient life, similar to the humans they were modelled towards? From what happened, this is pretty much what I got out of it.
Mims were supposed to be the bodyguards for the Lifehold core and the ECP as a whole, and to ensure it doesn't fail. They've got the means of creating biological life within it, but since the system archiving their consciousness was destroyed, it seems that along the way they became life on their own, as Lao says right as he turns into the chimera.
I mean, if there's anyone we can trust, ironically, it's Lao. He seemed to be aware of pretty much everything that was going on, and accepted his role as mim once he realized he's very much alive despite his robotic body. Still, they CAN create humans, and it seems pretty much everything gets a soul in Mira, so I hope the sequel touches upon the divide between flesh and blood humans and their robotic counterparts, but at least mims are far more interesting than realians.

Anyways, is that about right?

>>
>>125480204
Mims are real people.

Got their brains scanned into computers which control robots.

When they got the lifehold back they were gonna print their brains back into biological bodies.

They were supposed to be wiped out when the lifehold deaded, but Mira is a magical robot planet which gives robots souls.

That's about as true as saying that by the will of magical power planet the avatar is remotely controlled by you, from the 3D dimension.
>>
>>125481384
Neither of them is Elma. I was excluding her because the fact that she's got her original body is made clear. The two who are ambiguous are Yelv and the avatar.
And it most definitely does not make clear that they aren't still remoting. They're just doing it from an undisclosed magic location instead of the original storage. There's nothing that says a normal MIM has any kind of personality-level storage capacity.

There isn't anything denying it, no, and I wouldn't rule it out, especially given what's going on with the secret mim project, but I don't know that we're supposed to take that as the conclusion for everyone. Certainly none of the characters suspect anything has changed other than the storage location.
As for storage, though, I think the fact that Lao kept the data on a thumb drive suggests ordinary mims themselves don't have much in the way of memory, so all that information probably still has to exist in the planet's internet or whatever.

oh thank god

this game is so much like a single player MMO I just expect it to save my data constantly and just turned my console off without thinking, and loaded it up and everything is where it should be.

I was scared for a bit because I hadn't hard saved in over 3 hours and that's a lot of life to just LOSE to a stupid mistake.

Nope. Save every mission or you'll lose hours of time like me

>>
>>125484673
autism man strike again! no 2015 game would not have autosave.
>>
>>125484821
Indeed it does but just save every now and then and again before turning off.
If you want to update the avatar, there's an option, on by default, to update automatically when saving.
>>
>>125484268
No, it does not. This >>125484395 anon has delivered false information.

It does not auto-save. Which is both a blessing and a curse at times. It means that you can save whenever you want and can save scum it, but the game doesn't ask you if you want to save until AFTER story missions.

not what I was looking for but I figured it out anyway
>>
>>125499779
what exactly did you figure out?
>>
>>125499407
Deus Crusher 60 Blueprint comes from:

Ceasless Vigor, given to you by Ni Zyne, in Cauldros, after mission 12; where you assist people in killing mechs. He's located near the giant weapons hangar.

>>125499274
tfw someone is baiting you and it isn't funny
>>
>>125499691
No, the black ones are ganglion. You can tell because they have the same ships you're constantly fighting during the game, including Luxaar's base.
>>
>>125499273
She's just a small part of the Delfinans, their whole questline ends in a more satisfying manner after you do Fortun/Erio's quests.
>>
>>125499967
But I'm not. I'd prefer not to farm reward tickets because that's a pain. I don't think I can solo Telethia either.
>>
>>125499936
during overdrive you have 3 'stats' on the side, damage, cooldown and resistance
I was trying to figure out how to increase the cooldown bonus for faster ghostwalkers, you stack it up by using 2 green arts in a row, which is perfect because everybody and their mother uses primer which can be cast multiple times

Too bad. Everything that is farmable/is required for the frame is listed in one of my first 3 posts on this thread. Figure it out.

Alvis was just an AI, but his existence through multiple dimensions suggests a number of ridiculous ideas as to the connection between them.

Zanza's existence in the Xenoblade world was that of a man trapped in a limited world of his own creation desperately trying to control something that was growing far too quickly for him to keep up, and eventually his creation destroyed him in order to grow past him and without him.

Truth be told, the biggest connection between all of the Xeno games is that their overarching stories make no damn sense whatsoever and if you analyse them from a nonbiased standpoint it's complete and utter rubbish.

They are frozen, people's eyes
Kind of close to endless mental slavery
Always look up to the sky
Is this what I'm living for?

All the news we used to hear
All the things we heard from you

You need to start definian downfall, which requires a couple quests from doc B, and starting the previous definian quests. Lara mara hands the first of those out on the blade heliport.

You also need to finish Definian downfall to recruit mia.

The quest afterwards has you trying to help a Definian understand human love, so you go find suitors. She ends up wanting to fuck you instead, and the other definian you had been helping also has feelings for you.

There are two versions of that quests, I think they are different if you have a male or female avatar.

There might be a couple other quests you need. If you've already done the first Lara Mara quest about the definian girl pretending to be a blade, then you have all of the prerequisites done.

Next one is in the industrial district, in a corner.

Definian downfall shows up on a rooftop in the commercial district. Make sure to kill her mother on this one when she gives you the choice.

I played exclusively as Melia until I got Mechon Fiora and switched back to Melia shortly after that because I loved her style so much.

Volt, Copy, spam Flame/Earth/Wind for debuffs and damage and to build up Ether, then stack a third Volt, Unleash, and prepare for the highest possible single damaging attack in the entire game that makes monado attacks seem like mere child's play and makes chain attacks all but useless for anything but topples.

get some tp gain on arts for good measure because you can hit the overdrive button again to fill the counter which is a great ifuckedup button

Look up, I think I listed the required mats for Overdrive Extend. Anyways, using A blue ability during Overdrive adds time, so you'll use an aura, mainly, to add 10 seconds. Alternatively, you can just re-use Overdrive while overdrive is still active to increase your count/add time.

>and find out it has the better story

The first few "chapters" were okay, but after a certain point it goes full ham and the story just falls into complete and utter nihongo "we have no idea how to write gripping stories or compelling enemies so have some new antagonists and a new overarching plot that we totally didn't just pull out of our ass and meant to foreshadow but kinda forgot"

I'd say around mid-to-late game the story becomes irredeemable and most of the party becomes entirely unrelateable and useless, only even made somewhat meaningful by the "POWER OF FRIENDSHIP" bullshit.

Reyn even comments several times that he's basically useless now and everyone knows it but he's just going to keep tagging along so that he can have a contrived awkward romance subplot with Sharla because he was stern with her little brother once.

And the road to the final final final final battle is just a series of Deus Ex Machinas (quite literally) and more metaphorical "THIS ISN'T EVEN MY FINAL FORM" bullshit to draw it out further.

They both have shitty contrived stories, but at least Xenoblade Chronicles had interesting and compelling characters with meaningful interpersonal relationships that the player could actually care about.

Though I actually think I prefer the sci-fi one, to be hoenst. even if the story is not 'all there', I found it more... interesting, lets say.
I found the concepts to be a bit more interesting . Mostly because they were grounded in a more 'believable' setup. I'll definately admit that the majority of the plot dump was in the last fucking chapter and that's a shame. But what was in chapter 12,I enjoyed every bit of, especially the end.

All weapons are equally viable until postgame where, until we do some more theorycrating/grinding, the best combo is dual guns and longsword. But until you put in 150+ hours, just play whatever seems the most fun, you'll eventually be able to max all classes in 30 minutes anyways so you're not putting yourself at a disadvantage by not going Duelist/FMJ now

>Xenoblade Chronicles had interesting and compelling characters with meaningful interpersonal relationships that the player could actually care about.

I would actually argue the opposite. Xenoblade Chronicles characters never stepped out of their single dimensional shonen archetypes- and that is all we saw of them throughout the entire game.

At the very least, most of the X chacters arent stuck into a canned archetype, and we see many different dimensions of each of them- this is helped by the episodic pacing, we constantly get to see what the characters do and go through in every day normal life on Mira and NLA. Meanwhile, Xenoblade Chronicles story was very straight fowards with typical expected archetypes that rarely evolved beyond their roles.

Well, considering I just found the general today I'd say I don't really know what you guys are pushing. tbph I just skip over all the number crunching and skell talk because I can't afford to get that into the game at this point

>>125525645
Well, you do get to use them after chapter 6, which is less than halfway through the game when you consider the first chapters are tutorials. It's just a very big game, so that can be a long way away, especially if you don't rush. But they quite clearly designed the world to operate on two or three different scales. Getting used to the first makes the later ones more satisfying.
>>
>>125525570

>>125525645
It's a massive open world game. I clocked in over 120 hours into Chronicles and can easily see myself doing the same with X. Getting your skell a third of the way in makes for good pacing, and you never really feel like you're missing out on not having it until you get to some of the later continents which feel even more vast. By the time you're ready to get your skell you'll have it, and even then ground combat is a little more complex.

Your mech is just one aspect of a really solid game.

Final boss is a boss rush of a level 50 enemy that basically requires a full party of Skells, a second form, a group of like five level 50 normal enemies, a third level 50 boss fight, and then the final level 50 boss fight you're required to fight on foot. If your Skell gets destroyed during any of the boss fights you lose it for the rest of the chapter, meaning that if you lose your Skell on the third fight and need it for the fourth, you would need to load a save and do the entire boss rush over again.

I guess you could just bumrush through the story chapters.

Beat up on guys 5-10 levels your senior for exp (grex are pretty wimpy; I remember beating up some level 25s at level 15) to hit chapter progression level requirements. Keep Elma and Lin in your party as they're required party members for story missions and there isn't passive levelling for NPCs not in the party. For the 4th slot hire a another players character that is ten levels higher than you from the scout terminal to help with grinding.

Speed through the handful of forced affinity missions required and for area surveys... I'm not sure if there are any guides yet but hitting as many probe locations will get you to about 10% per area. For the other few % to hit those 20% survey requirements just ask around here as needed. Poking through my completed segments map I'm seeing a lot of my Primordia treasure segments only required level 1 in mech/bio so I could at least point you in the right direction for the easy Treasure segments. On that note, if you're not already doing so level up Mechanical to each time your Blade rank increases. It's more important than Biology or Archaeology in order to plant probes that may require Mechanical 2 or higher.

>>125528282
Ah. I haven't had much difficulty with just targeting specific enemies, but selecting body parts in some situations has been a hassle. Do you find that you hold the trigger down when you try to do the initial select? That sometimes messed me up.

I died to it twice before; one when I went to see what was in there and it blew my mech up; and the second time to gauge how powerful it was/could be, test/mock fight.

The breakpoints on its bodyparts seem ridiculously high, like you could only hope to break maybe two a fight.

Also, as is tradition for these leviathans, the loot is shitty.

>>125527213
I imagine that given the lack on context, people wouldn't/shouldn't have any idea what it is. Only by drawing attention to it would they think to investigate. That, and the game constantly more-or-less spells it out from chapter 2

They go well together in that the sniper rifle is a high burst damage weapon and the javelin a low sustained damage one. Focus on the rifle for your raw damage needs and use the javelin for tp regeneration while the rifle arts are on cooldown. That is also pretty much the only good way to use this combination. You can gear the javelin for high damage if you feel like it, but that takes a lot of art slots and renders the sniper rifle useless.
If you use the sniper rifle, your melee weapon has to fill the support role.

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+.

I would take some of those out for Energy Source, Full Specs/Eagle Eye and Intercept

I prefer Full Specs/Eagle Eye over Ghost Sniper/Hawkeye because crits in this game don't really feel good enough to build around. This is a different build that relies on having Afterburner and Slayonet, your hardest hitting ranged attacks that use TP.

Energy Source here is great because it's free potential (+dmg on TP arts) and can combo directly into Slayonet because it counts as melee.

So I heard there's level 52 "petramonds" in Cauldros.

Any idea what part of the map they're on? FN sites won't help yet cause I haven't placed probes there.
>>
So is Ramjet supposed to do 1 damage or am I missing something

>that feel when you want to do a gatling+thermal longsword build and the two have some neat synergy (by which I mean effects that mostly do the exact same thing) but dual guns is just better

Homura? What exactly are you referring to?

>>125537293
Chapter 9, non-boss rush. Didn't actually realize he drops a level 50 version in time attack, though the skell prohibition sounds a bit rough.

Which class gets the most HP

How viable is maxing out whatever I want and then using their weapons/arts on another class with more HP?

FNs count up going north to south, west to east; the topmost site in the leftmost column will always be #01.

I've gotten both of the Neilnail's weapons from the Boss Rush (Time Attack), so I assume it's of a similar vein.

>>125538189
HOMURA is a flaming sword skell part for the right shoulder, drops from vasara and does shitloads of thermal damage against normal targets and even more against blazed targets
>>125538219
I don't know if he drops a stronger one in time attack or not. the neilnails only drop level 30 rods so it's unlikely
>>
>>125538095
There's some around the lava in the middle. They're the guys that look like a cross between crabby Forfex with their thick shelled legs but also have the hanging sack of those thin legged spidery Scirpo.

so there are no super bosses that require to be fought on foot?
>>
>>125538290
That sounds stupidly broken and I love it

>>125538559
none of the large ones are, I think, but you have to fight the level 88 chimera on foot

ive found l88 and l84 in a cave forced ground combat

not really hard though

I killed the 96 and the 100m hp boss on foot but they are doable in skells
>>
>>125538154
There's only a few ways I can think of to get out of using dual guns, but it's at the sacrifice of damage unless you've got some heavy multipliers against blazed enemies

Option 1: Augment all of your armor with increased evasion. I haven't seen anyone try this so I have no idea how effective it is
Option 2: Augment your gear with Topple Enemies: Decoy and skills that increase buff durations, and then use overdrive to constantly topple your enemies to give yourself invincibility

>>125538559
>>125538719
Someone figured out a way to squeeze skells into those areas so technically no, there are no enemies you can't fight in a Skell, with the exception being the Time Attack missions

Hrm. I couldn't seem to hit him on foot; constant misses. Not so much an issue in my skell, though.

>>125538815
can we get an elaboration on how to get skells in caves
>>
>>125538815
I understand how it works; but considering the location of the 88 Tyrant, I believe you cannot use the method to get them in there.
>>
>>125538815
I mean you're meant to fight them without skells

>>125538879
You're using the skill which gives 30% more melee acc in auras? I killed him with blossom dance burst before he used evade buff at low hp

Doesnt the augment trigger when you're the one beign toppled?
>>
>>125539082
Yeah, I might try fighting him again; Since he is a Mech, and I've built my skells around killing mechs, I figured I'd face them like that. That being said, On foot would be very fun.

I gotta grind a shitton of Potential Augs one of these days.

>>125539171

>>125538921
Sorry for the fucking awful wording, copying and pasting from reddit

Simply, you must have more than one Skell on your team. Have everyone in a Skell, then get into a fight with an enemy. Immediately run away from the enemy, while your party members are fighting it IN THEIR SKELLS. Then exit your Skell into the small area or cave you want the Skells in, and run away until the enemy stops attacking.

The party members in their Skells will now teleport to you in their Skells, allowing you to fight in your Skells in smaller areas (of course, only if the Skell fits).

But, you may ask after this, "how do I get the Skell I was in into the cave then?" Well, you're in for a treat, this part is the easiest part. Simply, switch which character you are playing as, get into a Skell that is ALREADY IN THE CAVE, and the Skell that you were previously in will teleport inside the cave just like before.

To get them out of the cave, either use the same tactic, or just fast travel, as your Skells will follow you.

Just sharing a little exploit I came across by accident, so if you're having lots of trouble with a strong Tyrant or something in a cave, you can bring your Skell with you if you really need to.

I haven't tried this in caves which are completely small, as the caves I have tried have had a small entrance but a big interior, but theoretically you should be able to still fight, maybe not move.
>>
>>125539336
I'll reword it
>get to a small opening
>aggro an enemy (will test if you need to draw your weapon too), get out of your skell, and go in
>when the enemy leashes and goes back to their business, your party members' skells will teleport to you
>switch to a party member, get out and in their mech, and the skell you ditched will teleport to you
>>
>>125538815
Around 90-100 evasion you'll avoid attacks often, but I don't know anyone that has gone all-out with EVA augs yet (especially when you're putting your life in the hands of RNG).
2-3 Pieces of Orphean gear is a nice evasion boost without giving up too much defence/resistance if you mix in other manufacturers.

There's this guy in a cave with some rocks in the tunnel blocking skells from entering his room but his agro radius is big enough that you could probably just lure him over to the blockage, get in the skell and shoot him from there with gun type arts. Cave is accessed from the ocean side of the mountain right next to the giant sphere in Sylvalum.
>>
>>125539650
Once I finish maxing out my classes I'm going to experiment with going full Orphean armor stacked with evade augments and try evade tanking

Seems like it'll work nicely with that 'Evade 3 attacks' custom soul voice
>>
>>125539893
Wait maybe I'm thinking of another room because my skell is clearly there in the map...
>>
>>125539917
Nice, I'm glad we've got people who are willing to do theoryshitting in the face of such a strong cookie-cutter build in front of us.

I'm currently working on a shock-based Javelin build that involves suiciding a mech for an 800% damage bonus to Maximum Voltage, not sure if a pure-potential build or a more standard DPS build would complement it more.

So what are everyone's thoughts on Cross?

Did having a customizable mute protagonist work or would you have preferred just having Elma as the player character?
>>
Are bullet flies in any particular location or am I just getting insanely unlucky?
>>
>>125538815
they should have put super bosses that completely drain skell fuel. There should have also been augments that decrease damage from super sized monsters.
>>
>>125540347
It didn't work but the problem was in the implementation and not in the idea.
Also Cross is the funniest motherfucker in the game.
>>
>>125540347
This >>125540461
Cross doesn't shine in the main story segments, but the sidequests wouldn't have been nearly as endearing as they were without Cross. He/she functions a lot like Yu from Persona 4 (the game). Despite the fact that he doesn't have dialogue, his sort of narration of the events that take place are what make him a great character, and all of his "silent protagonist choices" give him a lot of flair while still leaving the final choices up to you. I'm 100% certain that there were two writing teams working on XBCX, and that they need to fire whoever wrote the main story and dialogue and just get whoever wrote the sidequests to make the entire game because I would LOVE to play a game where the writing was so consistently strong.
>>
Is downloading the load time dlc's worth it?
>>
>>125540347
Elma wouldn't actually have worked as the main player character, but I'd have preferred if Cross actually got to talk. S/he does have the personality you give them.

So far I've had two chances to Mutiny, was fantastic.

Minor spoiler, but:

>Prone talking about superiority of tactics, praising Sun Tzu
>Asks you to Assassinate Secretary Nagi
>Agree
Tons of good shit.

Or:

>Sniper keeps firing upon Ma-Non Ship, has killed several
>Guy survives
>your genius plan to triangulate the sniper's location was to have the guy go stand atop the ship and get shot again


Screw the first quest a bit though, Didn't do exactly as he asked, as I didn't have it as a primary track, and ended up killing something above the fort, counting as killing more than just the mark.

>Secretary Nagi is missing
>Declare self new Secretary of Defense
>Van Damme gets pissed at you

>>125539597
actually, my tests which were all in that rust cave thing with the level 88, have all ended with lin and elma getting out of their skells as soon as the enemy died, leashed, or when I told them to assemble.
I was in the first big cavity for the first and last, but I had to be in the second small tunnel in order for it to leash on proximity

I don't think that having all 4 skells would be important, but I can take fights on foot anyway so I don't care enough to keep testing
