Should I be using the beast code on Rex? Right now I have him with mythra, roc and the dark gun girl which feels like enough. Am I supposed to make full attack/heal/tank setups on the characters? I was thinking of giving it to the fourth character when I unlock them.

Tae posted:The "Don't give cores to Rex" thing is overblown. I'm like 60 hours into the game and I'm still not at that point where he gets a story healer option, let alone the Special Ability. More importantly when can I get something on Rex that launches Between pyra and the wind attacker he can topple and smash but i can never count on Nia to launch in time Also I have Finch which I'll give to 4 as soon as I unlock her I think, if I can ever find this stupid rear end factory

I’m using on the second tank party member as extra blades Percival and Finch. I also got Godfrey but on Rex, is it worth using my next overdrive on that? I was excited because I thought Godfrey could launch but turns out there are multiple axe types

404notfound posted:So I'm running with Rex, Nia, and Four with three-ATK, three-HLR, and three-TNK. It's effective, but rather bland... Without getting too gimmicky, what are some ways to mix it up? Has somebody tried running with ATK/HLR/TNK on every character? I've seen people do: ATK/ATK/HLR x 2 TNK/TNK/HLR And insist it works. Not sure who the best person to control is in that case. Also I think this setup relies on having very specific healer blades. I'm doing the same setup you are and sometimes it's fun and effective to control the tank. The AI doesn't realize how quickly they can chain arts together by switching blades though which is annoying - especially when Rex gets the chain arts together affinity you can blow through all 9 cooldowns really quick, or chain specials into the same blades special level 2 and stuff.

I have been having a lot more fun when I switched to controlling the tank in my party. Is there a downside to Smashing with the tank instead of an attacker though? Also what's a good healer setup for Nia? I am using Elektra Dromarch Floren because they all ended up on her, but I have Ursula and Nim on other characters IcePhoenix posted:There are at least two deeds that give you +10 capacity each for boosters.

ajkalan posted:These late game side quests are terrible. One has me doing a merc mission first (always a good sign), then hunting for a doctor, who has me traipsing through deadly poison to find three plants, requiring between 6-10 of botany and focus each. The second part has me doing pretty much the same thing in a different area, plus once in a different area, except this one switches botany for mineralogy because "gently caress you dig through the menus again" I guess. (Plus another merc mission.) Finally I get these things to the doctor, who needs help to do whatever the quest is about...requiring a third damned merc mission. I'm only doing this one because it was the least irritating of the quests still available; one wants me to give 100 rare collectibles to a nopon in a snow field and I only have two of each. Yeah I keep hearing it described as an "offline MMO" But I cannot think of an MMO that shits on your free time this blatantly in the quests, it's almost mobile game in nature Like I kept expecting something to pop up saying "Pay 100 Gems to pass skill check?"

nessin posted:I see the tradition of implementing lovely half-assed mini-games into RPGs is being kept alive in Xenoblades. How necessary is it to play Tiger Tiger and keep Poppi built up, or can Tora safely be taken out of the party early and not have to deal with the mini-game at all? I dumped him instantly as soon as I got the other tank party member (Opens cores normally and starts with a pretty cool tank blade). At first I was having fun playing Tiger Tiger and then I realized how long it actually takes to grind the poo poo to make him good and no thanks I'd rather tie the progression to like, playing the actual game Xenoblade 2 Tae posted:Ike is absolutely returning in Smash. He's quite literally the most popular character in Fire Emblem, and he's like the only slow sword bruiser on the roster. What how The one thing I am excited about with Smash though is all the new interesting stuff they can put in from Switch games. I know that's not really Smash's style but between Xeno 2, Odyssey and BOTW the old entries should be getting a lot of new stuff, and Splatoon was not represented at all.

I fell asleep playing this game the other day (lol) but I did wake up to find out the unique monster I was fighting had died instead of me getting a game over, so that was nice at least. The game gets a lot more fun if you get the ability that lets you chain specials into each other, and you switch to a new Blade right after. You can do like, Skill 1, 2, 3 > 4, 5, 6 > 7,8,9 extremely quickly for a lot of damage and in many cases driver combos. Like I can with my tank do Break > Topple > Skills that get buffed by Topple > Aggro skills and damage skills while I wait for Launch > Smash which is cool. I get the feeling every character should have 3 of the 4 break topple launch smash skills

I got some +50 luck weapons early on, used a {20% luck accessory and a +25 luck accessory on 4 then got Percival and a bunch of healers then overdrived over Finch and now I will never switch the blades on that character Should I overdrive Ursula to Nia? Seems like a good idea

RazzleDazzleHour posted:Inherited is a ether cannon so put her onto Five, good blade you can use in the ether cannon meme build. Lucky is an HP-based tank, so whoever your tank is, even though it'll probably only be temporarily useful. Spear user hunter onto Nia, it gives you a big bonus to your ether stat and Nia has a bunch of ether-based spear moves. Katana onto Four, one of the three best evasion tanks. What are the other best ones

Reiterpallasch posted:Poppi Mk.2 is by far the best on paper, but you can't make Tora into a dodge tank without lobotomizing the other two Poppis, so that's kind of cheating. Oops, I guess my 4 Story blade/Finch/Perceval setup isn't as good as I thought? Like you said Finch actually seems really good on her, but not as the blade I start the battle with. I thought Perceval was generally considered to be a really good fit on 4?

I remember the creator of Xenogears, when he started Xenosaga, saying that it was meant to be a 12 part series and that Xenogears was like, 5/12 or something. So in my head XC2 is like, #10 in the series, and also it turns out that was a terrible idea

Natural 20 posted:Is there any way to stop everyone screaming attack names? Like I use 4 over Tora because she's just quieter. Someone mentioned earlier that Evil Dark Samurai is actually not good on her (I initially thought it would be) Personally I use Evil Dark Samurai anyway because he has smash. So between her default blade and one with topple, she can do everything but Launch. I tend to control her as well.

U-DO Burger posted:The game doesn't have too many items. The problem is that the inventory system is a pile of hot garbage That combined with like, here's a billion AUX cores, they need random garbage you pick up to unlock, and then you have to equip them to each and every blade you have and keep them updated. also here's some stuff that you equip to your characters but it expires so you need piles of it, but you can only carry 10 so you'll need piles of different things to swap between. Here's your weapons, also btw you can only equip them but not unequip them because they just disappear. Also they're unique to each blade, like the aux cores so make sure to buy 9 of each. Oh did we mention the blades come from randomly generated items? Have fun leveling each one's skill tree and weapons independently. Oh you thought I meant weapon chips? No, I also mean weapon skills. I hope you remember to spend your WP (Weapon Points) on Weapon Skills. No there's also a skill tree, that's separate from WS. Noooo not the blade skill tree your character skill tree keep up it uses a different set of Points. Anyway, you can't finish this sidequest because you only have 7 levels of Recognizing The Names Of Different Plants and you need 8. It's ok just look through your entire blade inventory to see if any of them have it on their skill tree. No there's no sort function lol that's not any fun. Anyway, this one garbage blade you unlocked 10 hours ago looks to have the skill you need, go send him on Mercenary missions until he gets it. Oh yeah just leave your console on and check back on it once an hour. Oops it's on the wrong guy, you could use this Overdrive item but you only get like 4 in the entire game so you used them all already

Harrow posted:Rex is a pretty good healer with the mid-Chapter 7 story blade, huh? Nia's blade form kicks a lot of rear end. I just wish I had another good healing blade to put on him, but I guess that can wait. I saw some people eventually having luck with a party that is like: Rex: ATK/ATK/HLR (the one you mentioned, who's the best in the game I guess) 5: ATK/ATK/HLR 4: TNK/TNK/HLR Sounds cool but also a massive pain in the rear end to reorganize everything

Huh I really stalled on this game around CH 7 and that code is at least an excuse for me to boot it up again and see what I get. If I remember correctly my loadout was pretty good on Rex, Nia and tank girl. I had nothing of worth on the last party member. Would it be good to open stuff on him? It looks like eventually 2 attackers become an accepted build

punk rebel ecks posted:The not sure about Torna, but Xenoblade 2 sold more in the United States than in Japan. It's crazy how much more popular Xenoblade 2 is compared to the other games. Nintendo really shows what having confidence and investing in your franchises does. I wonder how much of that was coming out in the launch year that had a relatively slow release schedule (Huge, amazing games but months apart). These days it feels like a high budget JRPG comes out every month, I dunno that XC2 would have done as well as it did if it came out after Valkyria Chronicles 4, Ys, Pokemon, World Ends With You, Every FF game in existence, etc. etc.
