Xenoblade: Definitive Edition - Things You Should Do Before New Game +

[@EnelXC]

Final thing to note that I forgot to mention in the video since it's a new thing: You can buy level V of essentially every gem from challenge mode too if you want to use that for exp/ap up. I believe that requires some story progress but that shouldn't be an issue. Level 12 art books and the best farming challenge are unlocked from beating Future Connected.

[@223salvador]

Holy, to get every skill tree its impossible for me, because i always missed an NPC or i just missed a timed mission, how can you get 5 star affinity with everyone, do you have to complete all missions or something like that

[@______-uw3ei]

Salvador456 you don’t have to complete every quest but you do need to complete quite a few and also after completing a few quests talk to a bunch of npc’s in that area as they might unlock another affinity link with someone else getting you closer to 5 stars

[@icecream1p506]

Klokkklkkllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll kkkklk

[@kieragard]

@@223salvador you can't really miss them they are on a timer though so if there not there change the time cycle and look again.

[@paragonyoshi4237]

I'm wondering... Do I have to unlock the Time Attack Challenges and Noponstone Items all over again, once I go into New Game Plus? Is that the reason as to why I should buy all the Colony 6 Items, before I finish the game?

[@cantdestroyher7245]

I have to say I'm very impressed by the lengths this community goes to minimise spoilers

[@alxdrksoul]

I don't know why I thought about IGN.

[@maycontainnuts3127]

We've known for the past 9 years how impactful each piece of the story is, so we've tried for the longest time to make sure everyone experiences it the same way.

[@liamjcollins8053]

The Xenoblade community is easily the most positive and wholesome out of any gaming community

[@Felixr2]

True, but the wiki could learn a thing or two from the Fire Emblem wiki when it comes to spoiler notifications. Yes, the xenoblade wiki notifies you at the top of the page if there are spoilers on the page. But the Fire Emblem wiki has seperate expandable spoiler tags for every individual section with spoilers. You can go to the page about Claude and read about his early life without getting spoilers about, say, the ending of Verdant Wind, or about his appearance in other routes. Though the Fire Emblem wiki does have issues of its own (completely irrelevant videos most of the time (that's just a wikia standard from what I've seen), and it's generally recommendable to not follow the wiki's advice (why is there advice on a wiki in the first place? this isn't a guide!))

[@nothingtoseehere8771]

They only go to these lengths for one spoiler, the rest don't get the same treatment.

[@AliBaba-sw4ej]

It’s worth noting that the arachno feeding ground can be completed the same way with every party member as long as they have a strong AoE. As usual, every party member means not Sharla

[@selder_7]

Getting to level 99 is something that’ll just happen when grinding AP and SP really, that takes much longer

[@pforgottonsoul]

i honestly got there simply grinding gear( didn't think to save scum chests)

[@desolattiedevestati1180]

Casual mode quite literally makes it so much easier, since fighting higher level enemies give you more exp than same level enemies, ye level up real quick. Best spot I farmed exp at was at the three sage summit, since the lv100 boss and the 2 other hunkos respawn there almost all the time and easy to access, only issue with that spot is it is also home to the lv120 Avalanche Abysaay, only during a blizzard tho

[@RozalinGaming]

For EXP, put it on expert mode and drop your levels to 70 and also put the game on safety so you can easily hit enemies. Then go to the place in Tephra Cave you mentioned. Takes about an hour without EXP gems.

[@EnelXC]

yeah casual mode is a thing I regularly forget about and I also have my pride hahaha. Good advice though!

[@ikaru886]

For fast EXP, apply the same method but in casual mode and with red ennemies Casual mode basically erases ennemy evasion so you can kill lvl 99 ennemies while being lvl 70 without even sweating (ennemy damages also seems to be divided by 9 or 10) , but more than that, the casual mode gives an insane bonus XP for unknown reason, just after mechonis core you can directly rush to tephra cave and be lvl 99 in like, an hour or two of grinding ? It might be even less. The only downside is that you're now a "casul" (except we don't care so just do yourself a favor and activate the casual mode for farming it's way faster)

[@EnelXC]

I have too much pride to use casual mode hahaha. It shouldn't be any extra bonus, red tag enemies give the same exp regardless but yeah you can make life easier by doing this.

[@PhazonKing]

That would be boring. I prefer to level up in thr normal way :-)

[@Starfloofle]

You can also use this method to kill difficult monsters startlingly early in the game. Especially if you cheese some kills by punting gogols off a cliff for super equips. You can actually do that as soon as you enter the area using casual mode, because their evasion will be actually manageable. Just play as Reyn and use Sword Drive instead of Melia's Spear Break. You can *technically* do this in normal mode too, if you give Sharla no arts but Tranquilizer and just hope you get lucky, but that's so incredibly unreliable that it's barely worth it at all.

[@selder_7]

They should’ve added more landmarks to this version. At least one more per map

[@They_are_Arthur]

Why do you think so? Just asking, I personally am fine with amount of landmarks in the game.

[@IceDynamix]

[@ethanator6015]

[@GURGLEGUY12345]

Someone explain to me how that giant fortress in Satorl Marsh isn't a landmark.

[@bruinbear7666]

The random shores and islands in Eryth Sea, Agora Shore in Colony 9, and so many other places definitely need landmarks. I mean, you can teleport to a random rock in Bionis’ Leg and a stupid cave with nothing in it in Eryth Sea, but you have to swim and run to places you’ll go back to a few times like Anu Shore? I get why the makers of the game would preserve the original version’s travel locations, but they could have made the option to toggle new locations for players who want to save time (and don’t want to see 8/10 too much water).

One other thing: You may want to seek out and kill as many of the unique enemies, as, as far as i remember, they award their affinity coins once per playthrough while the ones you already had carry over. Meaning that in the end you get twice the ammount of affinity coins from Uniques

[@AdamsGemu]

YAY a gamer on the “gaming creator on the rise” Congrats!!!

[@Psiheim]

Also for the smashing future achievement Sharla is actually amazing for this. Have a reyn or shulk with low level and armor but high agro fight something like a strong armu and when the future triggers use heal, then shield , then some Sharla damage arts to maybe attract agro, warn shulk, and tranquilizer shot and then maybe kill. That's like 6 future breaks for the price of one and I found that made this achievement much faster

[@estyboi5927]

Gaming Creator on the Rise... he did it bois

[@Malysitos]

8:19 I did a new game plus recently to collect affinity coins and found out that the Nopon Archsage won’t have their Colony 6 reconstruction stock in the beginning of the new game plus run. This means that you will unfortunately have to go to the last time attack portal (located at Gondorl Catherdral in Prison Island) in the game to gain access to Colony 6 reconstruction stuff

[@EnelXC]

yeah hence why I suggested buying it before NG+

[@Lambda.Function]

Casual mode can let you do the spider farm before 80 if you want to power level up to 99. Just max run speed with Shulk, use Shulk/Reyn/Dunban with the highest damage weapon you have and an attack plus gem. You can run fast enough to avoid taking any hits before you start doing chain attacks. The casual mode removes the agility penalty for being under-leveled, and they don't have a lot of HP so they die quickly but give tons of exp, and killing an enemy in casual mode gives you 2 bars of party meter, so 2 kills is enough to instantly chain attack again.

[@EnelXC]

I didn't want to play on casual hahaha

To grind the 500 revives achievement I putted reyn and shulk level 1 and controlled fiora with speed shift for the crits and the skill that gain half a bar when 2 allies are down, went to spiral valley UM Immovable Gonzales, his spike will kill shulk and reyn instantly just keep autoattacking and revive only 1 of the 2 everytime to get the half bar refill.

[@skadi2911]

Very good point at 7:58. When starting NG+, the items for Colony 6 reconstruction will not be available until you reach Prison Island for the second time again, so basically you can find yourself stuck if you want to level it up all the way to 5 before the final dungeon. I didn't do it before beginning my NG+ but luckily I happened to find the 2 ice cabbages by simply exploring and doing a bunch of quests in Valak Mountain. Currently back in Galahad Fortress, I like taking my time and level myself down compared to the ennemies (I use the equipment I gather as well). Great game, and great content about it coming from you :D

[@jasonames7452]

The only thing I can think of that you missed was mentioning that the Monado III overwrites whichever Monado Shulk has equipped, and that you don't get another Replica Monado in NG+. It's relatively minor, since the Abyss is just objectively better, and you still have fashion slots, but I figure most people would want the warning so they can have one of each monado in subsequent playthroughs. Respect for clarifying that Meteor Staff is Melia's best offensive weapon, it made you come across as more objective compared to the the weapon choice recommendation in the Melia guide.

Hey Enel, big fan of the Xenoblade stuff you’ve been doing. I’ve played the original back on the wii on accident before I knew about the hype with Rainfall while trying to look for another game to kill time with. You think It’d be a cool idea to talk in depth about the replicas?

my guy i'm impressed by the amount of time you spent on this having to look for and talk to EVERY NAMED npc is gonna be a pain but i thank you for the insight on all of this i been wondering how to get the other skill trees for a while hopefully i can still do some of the stuff as i'm already in CP17

[@hessexm8065]

5:44 a better method i found elsewhere is go fight the mechon on the fallen arm, make sure the not to use ether arts, as you want to deal 1 damage, as burst affinity can happen when you miss, and hitting a mechon without enchant, or an anti-mechon weapon, counts as a miss, and if you're 6 levels higher (or dunban, preferbaly both) you can dodge all their attacks, guaranteed (it's not guaranteed, but it most likey you won't get touched at all), so basically, you're going to have an extra long fight, so most likely little to no skip traveling, and lots of burst affinity in one fight, boring as hell, but grinding burst affinity is going to be boring regardless, so might as well be as efficient as possible. Use Dunban because heat haze, Sharla is actually optimal to use due to her lack of damage output (revel in this border-line nonexistant occurance), and anyone else, except Shulk, Fiora, & Melia (If you remove Melia's Summons, then use her). Again very boring but, more efficient. A way to keep yourself entertained, is with art limitations above, and no chain attacks, is try and keep all your arts on cooldown as mich as possible, so use them as much as possible, it helps a little bit.

I'd be interested in hearing what exactly you're basing the "best weapon" for each character on. :) It just feels like I'm missing something, since e. g. for Melia, the sun staff looks better to me just judging by raw stats (not looking after auto attack that is, bc I feel like that's not the most important stat for Melia). Thanks for this guide, I think I'll especially use the techniques for grinding the achievements! :)

[@EnelXC]

auto attack is the basis for all damage calculations, including all her ether damage and she is primarily going to be a dps based mage. Defense stats aren't relevant since melia is so frail anyway and the crit rate is like 3% and exceedingly minor.

Well done on getting trending. Memes and bullshit aside you deserve it.

[@Psiheim]

I found a potentially faster way to do the revive achievement. I had Rikki as the leader for the party gauge skill and he reduced the cost of reviving by half. Then I took 7 for more party gauge building and a level 1 shulk and fight imoveable Gonzales. His AOE Spike kills shulk the second he revives so it's mostly just spamming happy happy, hero time to make sure tension stays up for more happy happy and mashing the revive button. I hope this helps anyone looking to do that achievement

[@EnelXC]

This is actually a pretty smart method, I don't remember my method taking all that long but this one seems even better so thanks for mentioning it!

[@EnelXC]

Of course! i just detailed the fastest method

[@RyuNoZero]

@@EnelXC yeah I was semi afk, when I did that achievement

[@Lortwogo]

I got the 500 revive achievement pretty quick by playing Riki against Avalanche Abaasy with Dunban and anyone else as the other two members without any debuff resistance. The third member goes down to the instant death, and then Dunban second (since he has better agility to ensure he gets the hit that kills him each time) while Riki keeps on standing over Dunban's body reviving him. The skill tree node that gives party gauge when two members are incapacitated was active, meaning that every time Dunban went down, the gauge used was refreshed for a very quick cycle of Dunban killing himself, adding the meter, and getting revived over just a few seconds. Riki is sturdy enough to survive with his abilities, but if you do eventually go down, Riki has Happy Happy to get right back into the grind from the respawn.
