This is Agate, and she knows quite a bit!

But does she know more than Kasandra lets on?

Azami is the coolest rare blade

Maybe about minerals! Agate is a prospecting legend!

Will unbreakeable? We will see in mind-break doujinshi...

...

>get azami off a core crystal
>stuck with a yandere for the rest of your life
Now that I think about it bonding with core crystals sure sounds dangerous if you roll the wrong blade

I want to pop Praxis’ water balloons!

>Merc mission wants a Blade with Patissier

>Oh that's Gorg, right?
>Gorg doesn't have that field skill
The fuck?

I wonder if in-universe there's a guy that just sits around rolling for Rare Blades all day and has like a warehouse full of trash common Blades.

>implying anyone's getting doujins aside from the big three
which is a damn shame because I'd love to see generic femblade get some lewds

Best boy coming through!

That would be extremely painful

I tried coloring that lineart from another thread

speaking of, do they ever mention or address the fact that rare blades look so different compared to the common blades?

Here's the original

The best.

Acceptable

Nice job user!

are there more xenoblade ohaiyos?

thats cute

yes

being this adorable should be a crime

>still don’t have Kassandra
She’s just a random one right? There’s no quest to get her?

I heard the idea is that common blades are at the beginning of their life cycle. Since blades take in parts of their masters, even if they forget the experience it still affects their being. Eventually, common blades also go through enough masters to take on the form of a rare blade.

It's part of the Blade system Klaus set up. When a Driver dies, their Blade loses resonance and dumps their memory to the Aegis processors for analysis, then updated evolutionary data is sent back to the Blade for when they resonate again. As a result Blades tend to take aspects from their Drivers, and especially powerful resonances can result in humanshape Blades like the rares.

you salvage her out

nice

Buy the Greedy Monster intel and start salvaging.

Is there a way to reliably set-up Driver combos for the AI? It seems so random. Like sometimes I'll Break an enemy and they'll Topple, Launch, Smash all on their own without missing a beat. Other times they'll just stand there hacking away like morons even though they've been set-up perfectly and I know their Skills aren't on cooldown or anything.

From where?

No, not random. The informant you buy info from tells you a famed blade was eaten in this place. Try checking there and try salvaging.

with my dick

So what's the point of the thought cloud existing at all when you will easily get every rare blade before you ever get any idea level to the cap?

Okay, thanks lads I’ll go check it out

Same she’s fucking awful.

Low HP gimmicks are the fucking worst

>only really want Electra
>tell myself I might not even get her during my playthrough, and that's fine. there's a lot of cool blades
>ends up being my third or fourth unique blade pull from common cores
her idle animations are so cute

the brows need to be puffier

other than that perfect

Give the two AIs breaks (Tora and Nia have breaks by default), then outfit Rex with an overclocking bangle (bunnits at the beginning of tantal) and blades that have topple, launch, and smash (ideal combo is Mythra, Agate, and Roc).

Did you leave the blush out by choice or just forgot it? Otherwise nice job.

...

roc is a fucking garbage blade

I wanna make out with that train

Fuck this game, I'm only need kosmos, and she doesn't shows up even with 999 luck, 99 commons, 99 rares and 99 legendaries

You're a fucking pedo and should be ashamed of yourself.

shes also a shit hammer

For those who beat the game
youtube.com/watch?v=ejxyt5zYdps

Roc has the best smash art in the game. Wind is a gimped element to use because it chains like ass into combo's, but he's the perfect blade for Rex for driver combo's.

whats the best team comp?

ive been rolling rex attacker, nia heals, morag tank.

Why Agate and not an actual good axe?

He's a free smasher and launch and smash are all you are going to be using your second and third blades for. Mythra is going to be the only one you use to deal real damage because her instant driver art reset is op.

I'm on Chapter 8 and my party is Zeke/Nia/Morag

Normally Nia or Morag will break and I'll follow up with topple launch and then smash with Zeke. Sometimes after I topple, Nia will get the hint and jump in and switch to Knuckles so she can launch and then Morag will finish with switching to Katana and smash. It just seems random when they decide to be competent or not.

Tora is potentially way better than Morag, but you need to play tiger tiger for 20 hours and unlock his 3rd blade.

I just use Morag because I rolled all these fucking tank blades and I'd like to use them.

Electra's problem is that her specials are absolutely trash, which is a real shame. Kassandra is no.1 hammerfu.

Is Level 10 the max idea level before boosters?

You are a big guy

tfw no agate, uncanny fox girl, kos-mos or dahlia

If you bother doing tiger tiger, Tora is capable of soloing everything in the game, Morag is the only option for a secondary healer if you want to use Nia as a blade. Zeke is complete shit and should have died so you could have given Pandoria to someone useful.

I guarantee they'll do better if you equip some fast blade switch augments on their blades. AI has cool downs too, you know. Also use good pouch items that recharge arts and specials.

why is zeke bad that makes no sense
he's just worse compared to rex/hikari aka the most broken shit in the game

Roc is good in the mid game for smash but as smash becomes less overpowered and you get it on other party members Roc becomes a lot less appealing. Getting blade Nia is pretty much the final nail in his coffin since Rex becomes less about driver combos

Someone needs to make a doujin, or at least picture, of Rex 'borrowing' Pandoria while Zeke cries into Zenobia's shoulder.

>he doesn't know about zenobia zeke

If they have the blade available they'll do it but if they recently switched the blade is probably still in cooldown

I think so

That was me user! Thank you! Ive found it!

Zeke is bad because all he is useful as is a dps, and Rex with Mythra completely blows him out of the water because Driver arts resetting and the fact the AI is too retarded to trust with doing more then applying break consistently. Plus Zeke is the most annoying character in the game.

>remove everyone's main blades and change their roles
>game becomes more fun

Blitballs are fucking awful though

I love the fact that even after awakening Pneuma Jin and Malos are still so fucking strong that they can just annihilate you..The game has to make you remain with 1 hp otherwise it wouldn't even matter what bullshit power up you got.

Rex/Mythra can solo literally everything in the game though. They're the best characters by far. So saying anyone isn't as good as them doesn't really mean much. Zeke can achieve the exact same set-up with Zenobia too.

I had to use a bitball healer to get some upgrades in their affinity charged and holy shit they are disgustingly awful to play as. I feel sorry for relegating the AI to that bullshit.

>agate was one of the first rares I got
>80 hours in and still no zenobia, newt, or dahlia

And yet this fatass is the best healer blade in the game

>No ones posted the picture of Nia in the hotspring yet
Here you go anons

I just mash cancel bitball arts and switch to other blades. The attack animations are shit but there's no reason to sit through them.

>fleet of foot
Does he even have feet?

Also pic related is a better healer, you can't convince me otherwise.

I like how it's really likely that he's nowhere near max affinity when you do his quest, so for most players Morag is always the one going to get her brother's underwear.

I'm still fucking mad you can't have her in that form and keep her as a Driver despite the fact they still show her perfectly capable of fighting alongside Dromarch on several occasions.

Maybe we'll get costume dlc if we're lucky.

he rolls

>tfw having Morag steal her brothers underwear

...

...

This needs to be remade with Theory

Anyone see how OP as fuck Nia is? She Has the power to either cause your cells to lysis or just multiply so fast, it just causes parts of your body to explode.

Nia can give you cancer, literally

>Did I Do That?
>Did I Do That?
>Did I Do That?

I actually laughed really fucking hard when Malos returns like five seconds after this. They made a huge deal about Nia being able to counter his power and then nope.

I think she’s canon 3rd or 4th strongest now that Malos and Jin and Haze are all dead. Seems to go
Mythra/Pyra
KOSMOS
Nia
Brighid
But there’s a lot of debate I’m sure

You unlock it at affinity 3 I think. After his sidequest at least.

GO BACK
FROM WHENCE
YOU CAME

>way blades are set up, you want certain roles for certain characters
>can't assign blades to drivers after the fact, need to blindly open them on someone and hope for the best
>include an item to transfer blades between drivers but make it so ludicrously scant that you're left saving the ones you have for the best/favorite blades and making do in the mean time rather than freely putting blades where they'd fit best
This seems silly. It's silly, right?

Poppi is the most powerful blade of alll, created by the genius Tora. Please applaud

>210 hours in
>no Newt

Masterpon truly has no rival

Yeah, definitely. Unless I get good roles, I'll end up with the same teams in every playthrough.

Newt is the only blade I really really wanted and I never found her till post game

KOS-MOS would wreck Pyra but Mythra is a good debate. Zenobia and Herald are powerhouses too

You don't want Newt.

I meant rolls.

Overdrive protocols should be given for releasing ANY blade with max affinity. You don’t get 4 crowns until near the end of the game, and although now I’m swimming in them I see how that can be a downside for lots of people.

POPPI POWER

He was at max affinity for me and I still told Morag to go inside since it was obvious that Fleet of Foot was just gonna make the scene fade to black. I'm glad I did.

>Mid-late game gives you an incredibly OP mechanic that de-legitimizes combat

Why do Xenoblade games always do this
