I was trying to beat Telethia and some of the other super bosses and wanted to know what exact augments I should be building for what parts and what exactly to upgrade on my skell. I know this has been asked many times before and I've been trying to look at the builds for it but am having trouble following them exactly.

Thanks for any and all advice!

recruiting yelv be funnier this way.

Not sure if there’s something I’ve missed to make this possible, I’ve had a lot of annoyance before with other tyrants when they dropped gold when I needed silver.

Took a long break in between this achievement, cos it gets boring at times

Just for extra info, I'm playing in a 1080p monitor. Do you think the AI upscaling is that bad that it'll detract from my experience? I'd rather the 60fps if possible, but I have heard very dodgy things.

I believe I got 50 or so hours in and finally got my mechs and flight and just stopped and played other games.

I don't think for some reason my game backed up to data cloud and I have a new switch so all my data is just like it never existed though I had the online service it kinda makes me mad.

Lol I had a good time with it a year ago yet when I got the mechs I was like hmm what else is there to do and I think I was only 3/4 of the way through the game.

Bought game on launch is it worth grinding those hours back for a mech again? I have so many damn games it's hard to pick and choose but I do like the passive persistence of the online features like dark souls.

Still thrilled I got to meet Caitlin Glass and yes I got her signature and am the Kurapika Kurta cosplayer. So try to be nice . Thanks everyone.

Now frankly, I'm embarrassed at the fact I still cannot understand Xenoblade X for the life of me.

I don't understand the resistance stats, yet a lot of people tell me I should change my gear around even though the stuff I'm using is fine? I'm using the basic Armor, a purple longsword I found, and a purple AR I found. I've been down fine with Elma, Lin and... No one else. Like everyone makes a gigantic deal out of it but I'm fine with zero in all stats but -85 in Gravity?

I really want to get into the meat and potatoes of the combat system, yet every video and guide I come across just says "BeAt ThIs LeVeL 91 tYrAnT eArLy" I DON'T WANT TO? I want to reach high damage numbers in my Xenoblade game as early as possible. I don't want to cheese this boss because a swimsuit gives me max thermal resistance (I still don't understand) I want to Offensive Stance Blade Dance and melt the enemy three times my level, yet I can barely do an eigth of the health of an enemy that is MY level, yet every video I see (before overdrive) they can do that at level 15 and I just can't fathom what I'm doing wrong.

I don't understand the probes and why they're useful. I know the material tickets are useful but like... Why is it that every video I see has mining probes in areas that cannot be mined and research probes where things should be mined? Isn't that kinda ass backwards?

Like I think I'm subconsciously downplaying everything that I do in this game and not capitalising on farming and such. I'm only just starting chapter 5 and I really don't want to end up lagging behind and falling flat on my face.

Scene from Chapter 5 just fun to see the Avatars more animated in game cutscenes.

Replaced Irina and Gwin with Avatars/Cross

He drifts off a lot.

Just felt like it.

I am literally hard stuck at Prog Ares. I have triggered the halfway cutscene and wiped, but now because I cant get the skell into the arena beforehand, the party wipes immediately to his first ability before they register my command to board skells.

Im level 43, everyone in the party is equipped with an Amdusias, which have been really, really powerful up till now.

Am I softlocked without farming broken equipment or turning the difficulty down? This feels legitimately impossible, I cant get him below 90% health. I know he has the swapping vulnerability thing, but you can only do so much given your abilities cooldown super slow.

Being out of the mech does nothing for me, I am running longsword but I just die as soon as the mech gets killed.

Its a really ridiculous difficulty spike - nothing in the game thus far has put up this much resistance. Im being forced to engage with the game in a completely different way that I feel like I havent even been introduced to.

It’s a mental edit you have to make after playing it, but it’s fix it so easily.

Starting in chapter 4 after you officially register as a BLADE member and travel to Noctilum, the void spheres start appearing. Up until chapter 12, you have side missions to explore each of these sites, kind of like technical sites, except you do battles at them instead and learn more about AL each mission.

At the end of chapter 12, instead of the famous “it’s something about this planet”, the team celebrates their victory, but Elma hold a debrief on what they found at the Lifehold, and they speculate on why they’re still alive, that quote being one of the ideas. Then AL chimes in with the information they’ve gathered on their side missions, and we learn about that thing he found in the center of the rift between worlds, and fully realize the collective unconscious. Then the alert goes of and the void spheres go crazy, and they pivot to leaving the planet.

^^^ this provides a natural pivot away from the focus on the planet. Since it goes on through the entire story, we understand that we’ve been on borrowed time since earth, and we’re simply trying to recover and regain our bearing. The story’s theme shifts to a brutal fight for survival against impossible odds rather than coexistence with a new planet.

And then we hit act 3, the actual culmination of the entire story.

Should I retire the game now, or nah?

Recently remembered about this and decided to check again, and the last two Tyrants have fallen. Go-rha sits at 52020 Player Wins and 51926 Player Losses, really close, but defeated, while Nardacyon now sits at 40560 Player Wins and 38560 Player Losses. Ladies and Gentlemen it’s been an honor.
