General tips and tricks

Set up probes whenever possible. Not only will this create a guaranteed fast travel location, a number of story quests require some percent of an area explored. Plus it makes a lot of missions significantly faster when you can pop from point A to B to C.

Whenever you set up a probe make sure to change it to one that makes you cash or Miranium. With that being said, also remember that you have a cap, so there is no reason to set up 30,000, when you can only receive 10,000.

If you’re unsure where to go or what to do, don’t forget about the ball.
Whenever you increase your Blade rank talk to Eleonora. She does not have a prompt, but will still increase one of your skills and give you something for your room.

The best skill to level is Mechanical, as that will let you capture more probes, followed by archeological and then biological. The last one is only really useful in the last area.

Never accept a gather quest. Typically these can be finished whether you accept them or not by simply having the item in question. Plus the game will outright tell you whether you have enough to complete the quest or not. Also keep in mind that you can constantly revisit the quest area to receive different ones. This is a great way to quickly increase character affinity, as it’s guaranteed to go up for doing quests and sometimes you can ditch pointless materials on an easy quest.
Items with a star give BP in the collectopedia. Outside of those, there isn’t much of a point in filling in the other squares unless you can fill them all in.

Killing enemies above your level give a massive increase in experience. This is a great way to power level characters you rarely play with or need for a specific mission.

Remember that missions, killing specific tyrants and finding certain collectibles also count towards your survey total. This is a good way to complete the requirements for story missions, without having to do the same thing each and every time.

If you’re having trouble doing something, try a different time of day. Some enemies are only hostile during the day, where as other enemies are hostile at night or in some cases you fight different, possibly easier, enemies.
Another helpful hint for tricky areas is to think outside the box. Occasionally I found success climbing mountains or attacking from a different angle.

Some Tips on doing basic missions.

It is rather simple. If your unable to equip the weapon at that time, you can give it to a party member to wield. If a party member is wielding the weapon they need to attack at least once in the entire fight, so if your in your Skell and want to nuke the area, remember you need the party member to attack once, but after that you can nuke the area all you want.
On that you can attack a monster with the weapon, and say, nuke the area with a Skell attack. As long as the match doesn't stop it will still count.
Example in context: You get a get needing a Gatling gun but you don't have access to the class yet. Give the gun to Lin to use and keep her in your party. Get a Skell to the area with the required monster. On foot stab one of the monsters so Lin will attack. Get in the Skell and use an attack that hits and kills everything in the area at once. It should count.
________________________________________
Combine the missions monster bounty missions and item bounty mission:
Some missions will ask "Kill [Amount] of [Monster] in [Wherever]" while some will say "Find [Item] from [Monsters] in [Wherever]".
I recommend the previously mentioned chart.
Contrary to the wording of the secondly mentioned SOME items can be found on other monsters. So, select a monster bounty mission, use the chart to see what items that specific one drops, then go and see if a quest comes one looking for at least one of the possible drops. While this isn't guaranteed to always work, when it does, you get two quests (mostly) done by the end of it.
________________________________________
Gathering...
They are annoying, usually they are you need to pick up blue crystals in a specific area. Again, view the chart. But if you get into combat, you will not be able to pick up crystals. If you go to pick up a crystal and a hidden monster appears, you will need to kill the monster or run... for... a... long... time...
In terms of the above chart, I noticed that it sometimes lists three or four areas where the item can be found. Check the map where ALL the locations are, I noticed that usually the item is most common in the middle of all the listed areas on the chart.
Additional tip driving a Skell around will pick up allot of crystals quickly thus greatly increases your chance of finding the item your looking for.
________________________________________
Red/Special Gathering...
While usually the needed item is blue, rarer quests will ask for a very specific item that isn't on your Collectapedia, this crystal will be red and usually can be found by following the "Follow Orb"
WHY couldn't the blue ones be like that?
Additionally, there is a rare variant to these quests that instead of an item, it is a pet. It will work the same way, however. However, once the pet is retreated go to your barrek's bunker-edit-console-thing and you can let the pet loose in your home.
________________________________________
Rumor Quests
Not much to say in terms of tips... but some quests from the mission control will be added after you walk near a yellow face above a their head. All these are labeled "New"... unless you seen them before. The quest itself, 50% of the time, is a quest to kill a specific monster-tyrant. You can use the above chart to see details of the tyrant such as its level and what it physically is.
The other 49% is to do a chain quest that after excepting your goal is to find someone with a red question mark over their head. These will be labeled with a pay of "---" and "---" because it technically isn't a mission as you beat it by talking to the required character to then trigger a more advanced quest.

Soul Voice Guide
The Soul Voice system is confusing and ambiguous so I thought I'd make a small guide on how to utilize it. I personally completely misunderstood the mechanics. Did research by reading though Reddit, NeoGAF, and GameFAQs posts and by watching videos, so thanks to every person who posted information about Soul Voices. Screenshots were taken from Nintendo's Xenoblade Chronicles X Survival Guide: Planetary Defense 101video.

Soul Voice Settings
On the 'Soul Voices' page for a character (Soul Voices), you are shown 16 Soul Voices.
Each Soul Voice has a:
• Name: The name of the Soul Voice.
• Trigger Condition: The event that causes the Soul Voice to activate. Meeting this condition will not guarantee the Soul Voice to activate. The chances of activating the Soul Voice when the trigger condition is met is affected by party 'Morale'.
• Set of 3 items. Each item has a(n):
• Dialogue: What the character shouts out when the Soul Voice activates.
• Requested Art-Type Response: The type of art another character must respond with to activate the Soul Voice's effect.
• Effect: The effect(s) that activate once another character responds with the requested type of art. These effects last for a short duration when activated.
Example: Soul Voice: Daredevil
For your character, 12 of these Soul Voices have preset trigger conditions and 4 have customizable trigger conditions. You are unable to change any Soul Voice settings for other characters.

Soul Voices In Battle
In battle, this is what a Soul Voice looks like: In-Battle Soul Voice
Other Characters
When a character that isn't you triggers his/her Soul Voice, you see something similar to the above image. In the following image, Elma activates her Soul Voice and requests a ranged (yellow) art to be used: Soul Voice Trigger & Activation
Your arts of the requested art type begins to flash, emitting a colored circle (The color is consistent with the art type). Here, your 'Flame Grenade' art is flashing: Soul Voice Response Request
Activating an art of the requested type grants the effects of that Soul Voice to both members---you and the character who activated the Soul Voice. In addition, both characters are healed for a small amount. You have to wait for the requested art-type to flash before activating it, otherwise the Soul Voice effects will not activate. Successful activation of effects is depicted by the emission of rings around both characters. The color of the rings corresponds to the requested art-type response. Time will also slow down for a brief moment. Soul Voice Effect Activation
Your Character
When a Soul Voice of your character is triggered, it does not immediately activate. Instead, a quick time event (QTE) occurs where you must press the 'B' button. This is called a 'Soul Challenge'. This is what it looks like in-game: Soul Challenge.
To complete the Soul Challenge, you must press B button when the orange circle overlaps (Perfect) or falls within (Good) the white circle. This will activate your Soul Voice and recover HP for all party members. If a party member responds with the requested art type, both of you will gain the Soul Voice's effects and recover HP. A Perfect Soul Challenge completion additionally grants TP. Completing a Soul Challenge raises the party's morale by 1 bar, increasing the frequency of Soul Voices as well as the amount of TP gained per perfect Soul Challenge completion. Again, the effects of the Soul Voice is depicted by the emission of colored rings

Xenoblade Chronicles X - Combat Guide for Beginners by a Beginner

Here's a comment I made for a guy who asked for tips on combat. The game doesn't hold your hand at all in this aspect, and it's a ton to figure out on your own. So as someone who was confused not too long ago, I figured I'd give my advice to those who are still confused. These were the two most important points for me. Feel free to add in anything in the comments or to correct me/clarify.

Basic Combat
Move around for defense. Just like how your moves's damage can depend on you and your opponent's position, the enemy's attacks work the same way. It may hurt less or miss completely if you get out of its range. Jumping is a way to move without taking your eyes off the target, or ceasing your attacks.

Take time to check arts' effects when you can, and think about combos that cause the most damage or effects. For instance, Flame Grenade gets a damage boost if the enemy is toppled, and you start with a move that topples the opponent. Use them together.

You probably know about the Cooldown (recharge time) for Arts. Well there's a "Secondary Cooldown", where the circle fills up, then fills a green circle around the first circle. This boots the art's powers or gives it boosted abilities, like being able to topple an enemy easier, or being able to be used twice in a row. Sometimes, the second cooldown can be a big game changer, so practice patience.

Also, the secondary cooldown will only fill if you're using the weapon of that type. So if it uses a ranged attack (Flame Grenade for example), it won't move unless you're using your ranged weapon, and same for melee. Credit to u/MarvinGarbanzo.

Check your weapons to make sure you're using your strongest or the ones with the best abilities. Also do this with gear after a few battles or you've noticed you picked gear up.

Finally, if you don't think you're going to win a fight, run and try to escape via a route where your enemy can't follow you. This means don't try to escape a fast enemy by just running across plains, they'll follow you. Jump into water, jump off a cliff, climb somewhere they can't. Then continue to flee until the battle's over. If it's still going, that means they're still coming...

And running doesn't have to be just to escape a fight. Say you startle an enemy and he's near five other of his kind who'll join in if they see you. Run, get him away from his friends. He'll chase, the others will never notice, and now you've got him alone.

Classes
The number under your level is your "class rank", and it goes up as you fight and whatnot. Your "class" basically defines your fighting style: Arts, skills, weapons, everything dealing with battle. When we all start, we'll have the rifle and knife, the same arts, etc. That's cuz we start as the same class.

Once you reach 10 in that beginner class, you can move to 1 of 3 new classes, each with new arts, weapons, fighting styles, etc. Then level one of those three to 10, move on to a new one, repeat.

Consider the new set of classes you can move to a new "tier". Each "tier" is stronger than the last. You can also change between the classes of a tier as long as you've unlocked that tier. So to be specific: You level the starter "Drifter" class (rifle and knife) up to 10. That unlocks a new tier of 3 new classes to choose from. You can switch between those three at anytime.

Soul Voices
They're basically a ton of abilities that activate when you activate certain "conditions" during battle. These conditions can be as simple as "Start a battle with your melee weapon" or "Start a battle from above your enemy". Or they can be as complex as "Make your opponent stagger with a thermal attack".

Every player will have the same conditions, but what you can customize is what happens when those conditions are fulfilled. So while everybody has the "Start the battle with a melee weapon" condition, Player A might have an effect of "+10% Damage" set to activated, while Player B has "+20% Physical Resistance". You can choose between three different effects for each condition (though some need to be unlocked by leveling up).

The actual character dialogue doesn't really matter. It just usually relates to the effect. So like if the effect is "+20% Melee Damage", your character might say "I'm going in for close combat".

Lastly, your team has their own Soul Voices too, and they usually can set up your arts to be more effective. So say Elma yells out that she's toppled the enemy, then you can use Flame Grenade (which is boosted when used on a toppled enemy). So combos and whatnot. Just be alert to what they call out sometimes.
It can be overwhelming, especially when you start the game. Don't worry about it so much until you get a grasp on things like "Stagger, Physical Resistance, Potential, Thermal Damage" etc. Pick some basic stuff for when you fulfill basic conditions like starting the battle with your melee weapon.

When you get experienced and familar with how you fight and what things you often do, then customize Soul Voices heavily. EX: You realize that with your style, you often topple enemies and you have a bunch of thermal attacks. Now, go into Soul Voices and start customizing what effects you'd like to occur when you topple enemies or use thermal attacks.

Xenoblade X Multiplayer Information Thread!

A while ago I was in a position where I felt like so little was known about the multiplayer and it was frustrating as it was one of the core elements of the game I was looking forward to. I'm going to answer pretty much any questions you may possibly have about the multiplayer. I'm paying it forward. Now I know pretty much all there is to know, so here's how it works. There are three core parts to the multiplayer features in Xenoblade X, squads, squad missions, and divisions. I'll outline all of them, then explain them in detail, one by one. Small preface : my terminology may not be completely "localized", though I'll try to use the English names for stuff where I'm aware of them. I will be continuously updating this thread to fix inaccuracies (based on my possibly bad perceptions or observations) with localized names and mechanic details.
1. Squads
2. Squad Tasks
3. Squad Missions
4. Time Attack Missions
5. Divisions
6. Rankings

----------Squads----------
Squads are the "passive" multiplayer feature of Xenoblade X. At any moment as long as your Wii U is actively connected to the internet, you will be loosely connected with 31 other players also adventuring on Mira, making a 32 person squad that is actively connected to one another in a handful of ways. First thing of note, this does not mean you can see their actual avatars adventuring around the world a'la an actual MMORPG, but what itdoes mean is the following...

• You can't see the actual players, but you can see NPC versions of their avatars adventuring around the world. When you see them, you can interact with them, and even invite them to your party. They will earn experience (for the actual player), and you gain a temporary, and possibly quite valuable (depending on their level) ally. I believe their membership in your party expires after a couple of hours so do as much as you can with them to get the most out of their help (assuming their character is equipped lvl/gear-wise to help you).

• You can send messages out for your entire squad to see. You might do this for a few reasons, to give some advice about something you've found, or in general just send out a message because you're feeling social. Everyone in your squad has the ability to "+1" your messages, and messages that receive a lot of +1's will be broadcast to the entire playerbase.

• You can hold a "Treasure Deal" that anyone in your squad can opt-in to participate in. This is sort of like trading but less direct. When you find an item you don't need but feel it would be a waste to just throw away, you can put the item up for a Treasure Deal to your squad. People will opt-in and basically it's a dice roll for the item between everyone who opted in.

• You can also choose to see the achievement spam of everyone in your squad but this is a really spammy feature that many people actually turn off. Me personally I wouldn't recommend it but some people get a sense of "liveliness" seeing that other people are earning things in their midst, so to speak. Sometimes you can see people earn an achievement and be like "Oh, how do I get that one?", or "Wow they have an achievement for that?!". Achievements are novelty by definition so this function isn't really helpful for anything other than trying to promote that "community" feeling of the world being alive.

The last purpose of squads are Squad Tasks. Every so often you receive 5 objectives. If you've seen any footage of XBCX you'll often notice the UI for it in the bottom right. A selection of 5 monsters and/or gatherables and a counter under each one, showin the progress. Players within your squad must work together to clear these squad objectives by killing the according number of monsters or collecting materials that the counter dictates. Whenever you clear each of the 5 objectives, it will increase the number of Squad Missionsyou can run when you teleport back to NLA and check the mission counter. More on Squad Missions later.

Sometimes the objectives can be difficult to find, so even if you're being a lazy fart, if you happen upon the right objective mobs that people don't seem to be killing, send out a squad-wide message telling everyone where you found it! This happens a lot in the JP version and it's massively helpful in conducting a quick and easy objective clear.

Clearing Squad Tasks will net your entire squad goodies, so it's in your benefit to work with your squad to clear them.

To round out my explanation of squads, I'll have you know that when you launch the game, it gives you three options...

• Join a squad filled with solo-minded players.
You would join this squad if you simply want to reap the benefits of the social networking that being in a squad can provide you such as messages and occasional treasure deals, contribute at your own pace to your division, but not feel obligated to work on squad tasks. Choose this option if you're not interested in workings towards multiplayer squad missions and simply want to pick your own activities and play at your own pace without pressure. You can also ignore all of the above if you'd like.

• Join a squad with multiplayer-minded players.
Choose this option if you want to be in a squad with other players who will be putting effort in to completing the squad tasks with the intention of unlocking the multiplayer squad missions, along with all the above-stated benefits of being in a squad.

• Join a squad with your friends.
You can select this option to be grouped in to a squad with selected friends whom you have their NNID who are currently at the time, exploring Mira in a squad of their own. Do clarify which type of squad (1 or 2) your friend is in, because if you choose this option it completely skips your preference and simply groups you with your chosen friend/s. Make sure you decide together what kind of squad you want to be in.

----------Squad Missions----------
This is the main multiplayer-related component of Xenoblade Chronicles X. Once you pop any of the 5 squad tasks spoken about in the above text, it will unlock a number of missions at the blade mission board back at your BLADE HQ. These missions can be tackled in a party of up to 4 real players, which is formed through invites which can be sent out simply by scanning a list of your entire squad. You can observe all 31 of your squad mates' levels, class, gear, and make a decision whether you'd like to invite them or not. No matter where they are on planet mira, they can accept your invite, however they can also decline if they wish not to run a mission with you so try to invite as many friends as you can for maximum fun. If you are unable to fill your party, you may fill gaps in your party with any of your BLADE NPC characters such as Elma or Lin. It is possible to enter these missions by yourself, simply accompanied by 3 NPCs, and some of the easier missions are cleared easily in this way, but with higher level/more difficult missions you will want to bring as many actual human players as you can in your party for reasons I will explain later.

Clearing 1 out of 5 tasks will often unlock a low level mission or two at the mission table, this might discourage you to hear, but no fear! Monolith Soft was aware of this conundrum, so they've incorporated level scaling for every single multiplayer mission. That means if you're level 50, and you go in to a multiplayer mission that was designated as lvl 20 difficulty, you will be scaled down to something like lvl 25 or so. This means that while you will still reap the benefits of your earned arts, gear, and of course your practical experience, it isn't an utter and complete face-roll for you, which would make running these missions pointless. The rewards at the end of the mission will give you possibly rare loot, depending on the enemies you tackled within said mission, and squad vouchers which you can spend near the mission table on various special items like for your Collectapedia. I've also seen useful consumable items on that list.

That being said, as you clear the 2/5th task, the 3/5th task, and get closer and closer to clearing all 5 tasks, the amount of missions that begin to unlock at the mission table increases exponentially. Where popping the first task may net you 1-2 somewhat lower level/easy difficulty missions. Clearing a 2nd objective will get you 2-3 more missions of higher difficulty/rarer loots.

Logically, you can presume that in order to be qualified for the biggest, baddest monsters and the rarest, strongest loot, you need to unlock the missions that come with clearing all 5 tasks. This is how you will increase and maximize your chances of getting a "Nemesis" mission which is taking down a fearsome boss which is undoubtedly going to drop you some sick loot. If you join multiplayer-minded squads, aim for clearing the squad tasks! Monsters in Xenoblade X can range all the way up to lvl 99+, so you will never trivialize the content, only make it more manageable (the maximum character level is much less than 99, I'll be unspecific to avoid possible spoilers for people).

----------Time Attack Missions----------
There is also a list of various Time Attack Missions. These missions have a 15 minute time limit (most of the time as far as I've seen) and will net you nice rewards in the the form of funds and squad points.

Successfully completing Squad Missions will push progress on a Conquest meter bar of sorts. The higher you push this meter through the continuous completion of squad missions, the closer you get to initiating a "Nemesis" event (World Enemy in the JP version). There are various Nemesis at varying level ranges (and again, you are level scaled to them).

The manual will tell you that if you want the absolute best gear in the game for both your skells and your character/s...you want these missions as much as you can get them (and of course, to successfully complete them, which requires team work!).

----------Global Nemesis----------
This is what it all comes down to. The moment you've been waiting for.
Enacting a Global Nemesis mission will start an event that your entire squad participates in. A nemesis is a fearsome boss that will take a hefty amount of both skill and experience to conquer. Basically you need to fight this Nemesis as much as possible as a squad. Every time the Nemesis is attacked, it depletes a "RP Gauge" that is equivalent to how much HP he has lost in every single battle with every single person in your squad. For example let's say the RP gauge is at 30,000, and the boss has 5,000 HP. That means 6 parties need to clear him to deplete his RP gauge. These figures are extremely rough purely for example's sake. Completely depleting the RP gauge of a Global Nemesis will require effort from your entire squad as it will generally be quite a high amount of RP. If you succeed in this endeavor, your squad will reap all kinds of neat buffs (and of course, lewts)! Do the work! Play as a team. Communicate with your squad! Get awesome stuff! Easy, right? These bosses will require your full attention and effort, utilizing all the skills you've honed on Mira, so don't let your party down!

----------Multiplayer Mission Gameplay----------
There are a few things you need to know about actually playing in multiplayer missions before you jump in guns blazing so you can get the most out of your experience before you wind up getting owned like some kind of n00b. You are generally put in to a slightly corded off area, unable to venture too far off the beaten path, and you are guided along the mission objectives by means of enemy spawn waves in the direction you should be going. Don't get me wrong, the beautiful world of Mira is still all around you, they just limit your freedom of exploration a bit during these missions. As an example, there's a really easy, low level mission that has you moving through a path up a mountain in Primordia. You will clear a handful of waves of different Primordian indigens before being confronted by a very large and threatening boss monster at the peak of the hill. This mission can take anywhere from 5-10 minutes depending on how efficient your party is. As you tackle missions of harder difficulty, this can vary wildly, as you might expect. There are varying missions types as well, not all in this specific format.

• You are allowed a maximum of 3 deaths. This means 3 times that your HP can deplete to 0. After your third death, you are RIP permanently for the rest of the mission, and the likelihood of your party mates clearing the mission decreases exponentially without your help. This means that playing intelligently is in your benefit. Don't be a Leeroy.

• Soul Voice mechanics are in full effect in multiplayer missions. Since there is no dedicated healing class in Xenoblade Chronicles X, it is absolutely in your interest for you to execute the Soul Voice skills you've been harnessing while out exploring the planet Mira. Successfully nailing Soul Voice nets you valuable group healing that can be crucial to your ability to clear these missions without too much casualty. Really good parties can keep a Soul Voice combo going for long stretches, so practice up and try to work out combos with your party mates' setup.

• If you play a class that is better suited to be taking damage, do try to take aggro. This goes mostly for "Striker" tier classes. Other classes aren't nearly as good at soaking damage as you are, so do your best to maximize your damage and keep the monster focusing on you!

• If you are running with AI partners, they do not have a 3 death limit, however they do not count as a living human player if you die. That means game over still if you hit the limit. Even dying once in this situation is pretty damning, however, because your AI team mates will rarely have the TP to resurrect you and they will just die without your help.

You are able to chat and emote to your party through the Wii Gamepad, so do your best to be as social as you can to avoid making it boring if it's your zillionth time through a quest due to bad RNG for the drops you want. The game is also compatible with a USB keyboard, if you so desire. Try to be nice! We're all in this together, you know?

----------Divisions----------
You pick a division early on in the game, and you may have read about them a bit, but these are essentially organizations that you align yourself with in order to receive various organization-specific buffs, while also receiving a bonus to the rewards of completing your organizations's favored activities.

For example, Interceptors and Harriers both benefit more from killing monsters than other divisions, but Interceptors provide a bonus to Ranged damage, while Harriers gain a bonus to melee damage. It is important to pick a division that supports your style of play not just in combat, but based on activities outside of combat that interest you too. Pathfinders gain extra points by exploring uncharted territory, Outfitters get a boost to how quickly they gain commercial points with gear companies, allowing them to craft higher quality gear quicker, for example.
Each division has both a combat benefit, and an out-of-combat benefit that will net you division points by doing. A player of any division is not limited to only their divisions' preferred activity. A Mediator can do Pathfinder activities, and a Pathfinder can do Mediator activities, but you only boost your division score by doing activities preferred by your division. Essentially, picking a division doesn't lock you out of content, it just decides which content rewards you. So it's very important that you pick the division that aligns with your play style and the way you like to play! It is debated to the end of Mira itself which combat benefit is the "best" so just go with your gut!

"How is this related to network functions?"
Glad you asked! In the BLADE HQ there is a rankings board that tallies daily. You can see which divisions have done the most work towards their conquest of Mira. A new tally is taken every day, so every day is a new chance for you to work towards boosting your division to the top. Divisions that reach the top at the end of a tally will experience being "boosted". Being boosted means possibly better drops and other surprises while exploring Mira!

You might initially be thinking that people can bandwagon hop to the best performing division, and you wouldn't be so witty to suggest the idea, as it's already been thought of by players in Japan already playing the game! To combat the notion of switching simply to reap the benefits of a boost you didn't earn, they have balanced the point gain among the divisions in a way where every single division has a chance to reach the top, it just depends on how much effort you want to put in to it on a given day, as every new day is a new chance for your division to be high on the list. They also added a hefty price to switching too many times/to higher ranks, so switching constantly is just not feasible. It's not just the #1 ranking division that wins a boost by the way! Sometimes it can even be the top 3! So do your best and keep your division high on the rankings! This is why it's all the more important you pick a division that suits you on every front, so that you're earning points for doing what you enjoy, so you don't get tired of it .

----------Rankings----------
Finally, but not to be forgotten, is a rankings board. A lot of people can get in to these because it can be fun to set uber-high records that nobody can reach, putting your name out there for everyone to see. There are rankings for tons of different categories where you might even end up #1 in one accidentally. It can drive competitive types to attempt to beat the top ranked players in categories they care about. All in all, this game supports and urges you to do what you like doing in a completely open space where freedom is the name of the game. You pick your own objectives and interests. It's all a part of the immersion.

All of these these network features are seamlessly integrated with the "single-player" experience. That means you take your own character, un-changed, exactly as they are in to these multiplayer missions, with the exception of the effects of level scaling depending on the mission you're doing, as I explained earlier. The whole point of these features are to make you feel as though this isn't really a single player experience. That you are not alone on Mira, and that you are one of many BLADE missionaries doing your part to conquer and discover the planet of Mira, carving a niche for the human race in to their new home of which they've been forced to grow accustomed to.
Fight on, bladers!

If you have any more questions, do please ask. I tried to address basically every single important question a person might have, so hopefully that's that!
EDIT : Woah, didn't expect this but it looks like I achieved sticky status! Thanks everyone for being interested in this awesome game . I'll try not to let you down.

Народ, подскажите, на ооужие/броню стоит тратиться или хватает дропа, который лучше апгрейдить?

[Lock_Dock122]

Блин, как меня раздражают эти задания, связанные с другими персонажами, которые ты и выполнить не можешь без подсказок, которых в сети пока что нет, и отменить их нельзя. Прямо таки вынуждают покупать официальный гайд, дабы не чувствовать себя лохом чилийским.

[Miralok]

Да уж. Действительно, без бутылки не разберешься.

По крайней мере в начале зависит от стиля игры. Если не спешишь по сюжету и активно гриндишь часами, то дроп с монстров есть отличный (А если вступишь в Reclaimers, то дроп ещё и чаще будет, хотя не советую их). Тем более, что пока ты не "прокачаешь" немного компании-производители, там в продаже вообще мало чего толкового. А это - тот же гриндинг. Я сейчас 20го уровня - вообще ничего не покупал, дроп гораздо лучше того, что есть в магазине. Но если спешишь по сюжету, то можно и прикупить что-нибудь. Хотя сюжетные миссии на этом этапе несложные.

P.S. С монстров дропает эквип примерно их уровня. Так что если активно выносишь мобов выше себя по уровню, имей в виду, что сразу надеть вещички с них не выйдет.

Что-то вся игра такая.

P.S. Максимальный уровень, как я понимаю, 60. А монстры гуляют по игре аж 90+ уровня, причём прямо по стартовым локашкам. Вопрос - никто не читал насколько сюжет сложный? Т.е. чтобы увидеть финальные титры весь этот кач фирм-производителей, крафтинг, уровень отношения с персонажами, BLADE уровни и прочее - всё это нужно? Или по сюжету можно быстро пробежаться, а всем этим заниматься потом на манер мморпг? Без прессинга, что без гринда не убью финального босса. Просто в первом ксено если не грандить, финального босса было тупо не убить. Суров был.

P.P.S. Список ачивок кто-нибудь смотрел? Тупо наркота...

По-разному бывает, так как в магазинах товар выпадает случайным образом, как и часть заданий. Мне уже несколько дней не выпадало ничего хорошего ни с монстров, ни в магазине, пришлось собирать материалы для крафта, поиск и сбор которых устроен весьма неочевидным образом.

Рассчет на Скелла, который компенсирует разницу в уровнях и позволит драться с крупными особями, но не со всеми. Некоторые видимо рассчитаны на NG+, но не могу точно утверждать. Качаться в любом случае надо, так как сложность растет по мере продвижения по новым регионам и чтобы не шарахаться от каждой встречной твари, лучше уделить внимание этому аспекту.

Да ну брось.

Так качаться - это одно. И это легко. Вопрос в другом - во всём, что помимо. Уровень персонажа - фиг с ним, вопрос в эквипе и прочем. Это дольше в разы.

[hateternal]

В сюжете все быстро мрет до определенного этапа, дальше уже желательно понимать что, как и зачем. Заморочится немного придется.

Уровень (по крайней мере в сюж. миссиях) важен только когда разница очень большая типа +15–20 между чаром и мобом.

Больших мобов можно и без скелла всех убить, но фарм, фарм, фарм + это (по расхожему мнению) только один билд может сделать при правильном эквипе.

Skell'а, как я понимаю, после очередного этапа сюжета дадут? Денег завались, могу любого купить... но пишет мол лицензию надо.

P.S. Игра - наркота, спасите меня оттуда

Зацепила так? =) Как-то ты настроен был к ней скептически поначалу =)

Беда просто... тупо не сплю третий день. Живу на кофе. За три дня набил 33й уровень... При этом по сюжету вообще пока не двигался и даже Skell себе не достал. Тупо блуждаю по миру, ставлю пробы, исследую, немного качаюсь, собираю хлам, гоняю слабеньких монстров по онлайн заказам, выполняю квесты... Эффект "вот ещё это сделаю и спать" - ЭТО УЖАС

Вопросы по теме:

* Я так и не понял, Affinity с NPC зачем-нибудь серьёзным нужно? Или их можно пропускать? Уж очень муторно - их много и все непойми где шлаются. Зачем Affinity с играбельными героями вижу - для миссий. А вот болванчики эти, с ними со всеми говорить нужно? Что-нибудь дадут нужное, без чего потом трудно будет?

* Как получить пятый уровень умения BLADE'ов? Тех, что механика, археология и т.д. Докачал механику до 4го уровня, дальше та дамочка не даёт. А вроде читал / видел хлам пятого уровня.

* После какой главы дадут лицензию Skell'а?

* При входе в Обливию днём действительно здоровье дропает как в Монстер Хантере в пустынях. Это как-то можно обойти? Айтемами там, или эквипом?

* Как доставать пробы? Их как-то покупают? Я по квестам немного набрал, плюс со сбора хлама несколько, но тем не менее - где берут пробы высокого уровня? Неужели только так?

Что сам нарыл:

* Пещеры таки есть. Порой хитро спрятанные, но есть. Нашёл одну по квесту с жуками, одну пустую с пробой и одну с очень вкусными Grex'ами 40го уровня. Набил там уровней пять, с 28го по 33й.

* Простая прокачка без Skell'а - дело весьма простое, если грамотно выбирать монстров. Вся фишка - найти монстра на 5-10 уровней выше себя, но достаточно маленького и слабого, чтобы легко его зашибить группой из 3х-4х человек. Хентаиные птицы, свиньи, Grex'ы тоже очень даже... Пока качаемся, из них нападает шмота их уровня. Так что к моменту, когда докачаетесь примерно до их уровня, будет и во что одеться. Я, по сути, за свои 33 уровня ни разу шмот не покупал.

* Пробы ставить надо чем раньше, тем лучше. По сути, первое, что нужно сделать - это оббегать как можно больше точек в Примордии и даже может в Обливию забежать, понаставив где можно проб. Ибо они рарные материалы и бабло будут в реальном времени давать и чем раньше их понаставить, тем больше успеет накапать к моменту, когда всё это реально понадобится.

* Некоторые пробы требуют уровень механика для установки, так что первым делом максим оный скилл. Всё прочее - потом.

Вот тебе и "тупая" гриндилка =)

Пещеры должны быть, видел в одном из видосов ранее, где-то в горах залетели в незаметную с первого взгляда пещеру, причем внутри она оказалась довольно большая.
==================

А Лок ревьюшку по XCX случайно не забросил? Очень жду =)

Ну, он же писал, неделя-две.

Ну она гриндилка... Но гораздо хитрее, чем кажется поначалу. Много артефактов, которые надо искать, довольно хитро припрятаны, кое-куда без Skell'а вообще не добраться... В общем гораздо интереснее, чем в первом ксено.

P.S. Понял как получить пятый уровень механика. Через терминал с квестами. Квест зовётся "Off The Record". Вот только если квестов в терминале по максимуму и все не те - квест не вылезет. Придётся выполнять что есть, чтобы почистить под него место Для задания на механика нужен Skell.

Скиллы когда прокачивать можно будет? А то я в плане сюжета тоже никуда особо не ушёл, только в Блейд вступил, получил первый квест и ношусь теперь просто так, всяким рандомным говном занимаюсь. Но на артефакты с механикой 2 лвла уже натыкался, прокачать бы её.

[Kagerou]

Скиллы когда прокачивать можно будет?

Которые какие? Те, что филдовые? Механик, археолог и т.д., которые разрешают сбор хлама? После третьей сюжетной главы подходим к Eleanor'е (справа от терминала с квестами) и она разлочит их. При этом "прокачивать" уровни можно сразу после официального вступления в BLADE (предыдущая глава). Если много делать опционального хлама перед третьей главой, то после неё Eleanora сразу засчитает несколько уровней. Впоследствии после каждого уровня BLADE придётся бегать к ней повышать скиллы.
