Oh so there is a logical answer presented?duckroll said:I think there is a logical answer to that particular question. I'll just rather not answer it right now.
Gravity works normally everywhere else. The center of gravity is the ground below the Bionis and the Mechonis.
Varion said:It will.
96:02 playtime now, L68 and 286 quests (excluding story quests) done.
Expect a delivery time of 2-3 weeks and you are set. It might arrive sooner, but you shouldn't count on it.Pikma said:Lol, so many spoiler tags!
I want to play this game so bad
Does anyone know how long does it take to ship to the US? I'm getting the CCP package from GAME, but haven't ordered it yet, but hopefully I will do it tomorrow.
uh? The only thing that i can do is break - topple - attack, apart from this i can attack normally with my party.Varion said:They can do pretty crazy amounts of damage if you use the colour chains well. I can do about 30,000 with a critical Backslash (just to give an idea of relative damage output), but I think my record damage for a complete chain combo is something like 250,000. Just pick a colour and use it, if you're in the right position for one of Shulk's arts then all the better, and then mix in talent arts if they're available because they can take advantage of any colour's chain multiplier.
I prefer this site as it tends to have more links to things. Like an NPC you can click on the name and get info on that NPC. But the wiki does have the advance of being more concise.BluWacky said:I use the Japanese Xenoblade wiki, which has a complete listing of quests as far as I've come across as yet. I appreciate this isn't an ideal option as Google Translate will spit nonsense at you unless you're able to parse the Japanese to some extent, but it's a pretty complete resource and has some excellent tips.
It's a shame that even with the excellent explanations the game gives you I still feel the need to look up where I should be going for some of these quests, but I'd have gone insane trying to farm Glowing Wisp Fluid, so...
B and C can get raises to affinity in battle for things like encouragement but switching leading to B or C will make this a lot faster as chain attacks will now do a bit of affinity raising.Laughing Banana said:[*]Let's just say the party is A (Party Leader), B, and C. If I want to raise affinity between B and C, do I have to switch the party leader to B or to C?
[*]I am not that clear about Gem Crafting... anyone can explain this for me?
Gem crafting spoilers (its more method that you can use later in the game than anything else)Varion said:In other news, went back to Colony 9 to try and take on some of the L70ish enemies... and get a Rank 5 gem crystal drop. Awesome. Going to be seeing what these enemies give me for a bit I think! One of them already Ether Up Rank 5s which will be needed for one character at least.
They have uses like raising affinity and the one your first usage of it showed (inflicting topple)finalozzo said:i'm seeing that a chain combo isn't worth it, it's better to use those bars for reviving your allies. Or at least i can say this after 7 hours.
The game only runs in 16:9 so on a 16:9 set with the Wii set to 16:9 it fills the whole screen* but is letterboxed on 4:3**. Also make sure you are actually running the game in 480i/p (is your Wii set to that or if importing, try using other force NTSC options).The Spoony Hou said:Alright, what's the problem with this game's resolution? It looks the the Wii is trying to scale the resolution to 640x480. I can say that for sure going by the 2D elements. lso, why can't the game run in fullscreen like every other Wii game? Dang.
I'm sure the in-game help explained this but anyway. The different colour of artes (they tend to be categories of effects but anyway). In a chain attack using the same colour twice in a row gives a multiplier to damage (thats what the colour Chain x1 that appears is about). White(talent artes) act as a wildcard so will add to the multiplier no matter what and the next person in the chain and use any colour arte to again up the multiplier.finalozzo said:uh? The only thing that i can do is break - topple - attack, apart from this i can attack normally with my party.
I didn't get it today. I'm almost certain it got lost and GAME still isn't responding to my e-mails. I'm gonna reorder somewhere else. Christ.JumpingTheGun said:Day 12 of the wait. Im going to doubt it showing up in my mailbox today...
If the one you are talking about is in a location calledBennettt2 said:I'm atwhere there is a bigValak Mountain. I'm only on lv.43 so will I be eaten alive or should I get more exp.?spider at level 47 and her minions
Also, any good ideas on places to level up in relation to where I am in the game?
Save and reload. Keep doing that and it'll eventually respwan*. Your location is correct.PetrCobra said:I have this older quest that's driving me crazy. I'm supposed to kill...
Starwolf_UK said:If the one you are talking about is in a location calleddo not fight it yet as it is one of the end bosses of a sidequest tree* with a nice reward. If however it is calledAntol lairand locatedValek Kingyou'll probably get eaten alive but it might be worth trying.on the cliffs
MicH said:But it has taken 9 working days now. It should take 6 and have never taken more than 5 days all in all from GAME before. Urgh. I'm starting classes in a week, so I fear I won't even get to play it.
Starwolf_UK said:*-This sidequest tree is a pain. I'll explain it the. Why go to all this effort? (the nice reward)Nopon Camp researcher givens you a quest to kill Antols and Chiikens. After that he says a fellow researcher went down the mountain and didn't come back. Finding this reacher gives you a quest to beat. Going back to the camp when completing this is another quest. Completion of that gives you that final quest (I spent 30 minues looking for the antol lair )The 4th skill tree for Dunban, might completely change how you use him since it has equipment weight -10 and heavy armour OK
You don't have to look very far. Check out the Antol Lair again.Zornica said:i found thepretty fast, but i cant find theantol lairi need little hint pleaseother leader... that chiikenguy. he isn't on the japanese map either oO wtf?
That's the one. Keep reloading your save until he shows up again.PetrCobra said:I have this older quest that's driving me crazy. I'm supposed to killbut he is not anywhere near the place where he is supposed to be. I have killed a unique nearby before actually, but this one never respawned (checked like ten times already), could it be him? It wasWallside Gwynry in Tephtra Caveand it wasn't an easy fight at that time, so I didn't pay attention to the name.where one side of that U-shaped corridor is blocked, he came to defend the small lizards I was slaughtering

I think that's because they redesigned their website recently. Looks horrible in my opinion.I highly doubt they cancelled your order without telling you. But who knows! When did yours get shipped out?TheBranca18 said:When I click on my order status link in my shipped email from Game I get redirected to the homepage. I have a fear that they cancelled my order :/.

Incidentally Xenoblade and OoT 3D are pretty much the only RPG/Adventure games that currently have commercials shown on French TV.slaughterking said:Yeah, don't just order a second copy. At the end you'll end up with two games and you'll have a lot of trouble to get a refund.
Also, the game did really well in France.

*-This is also a way to make regular monsters respwan. It nearly always quicker than quick traveling back to a landmark so handy to do when you need an item they drop.

White(talent artes) act as a wildcard so will add to the multiplier no matter what and the next person in the chain and use any colour arte to again up the multiplier.
But early on topple is the most useful thing to do with it. I have to say the only way to easily unlock the full damage potential is using (party spoilers)Mellia, as her mechanic allows her to store 3 talent artes which makes getting to 5x damage easier
Also they raise affinity by 1 heart (whatever that is in actual numbers) between the leader and other party members.
Mind blowing thing that occured chain attacks. (what happened, I don't spoil anything apart form what happened). (a bit of the area context)I was being attacked by an enemy I couldn't reach so decided to trigger chain attack (as the gauge was full) and what happened was shocking...the in-game AI used pathfinding to run up to this enemyThe enemy was up on a ledge with a flight of stairs the other side of the room with a few corners in it being the only route...to be fair I think the other party members were already running that way when I initiated. Given the angles involved I was half expecting to get stuck running into a wall

slayn said:Man, I seriously hate when rpg final bosses are significantly higher level than everything leading up to them. I'm at the end and have slaughtered everything up to now with ease, but can't even scratch the final boss. In ~10 attempts I did maybe 10% damage. Checking gamefaqs all I found is that I'm probably 6-7 levels lower than I am 'supposed' to be.
I'm onand I don't supposed there is something obvious I am missing about this fight? Because otherwise fuck grinding, guess I won't be beating this and will just wait for someone to post the ending on youtube._____Zanza in space, 2nd form____
Pretty much what I've been doing since accidentally stumbling on it, yeah. Didn't know you definitely got the max stat value by doing it though, thanks for that.Starwolf_UK said:Gem crafting spoilers (its more method that you can use later in the game than anything else)Heat on a level 5 crystal makes a level 6 gem, remember that mega heat will not only be max stat but you get two of them. Use the trick saving them using the party member that starts with 3 turns (so you will always pick 3 crystals) with 2 or 3 (or more if feeling lucky?) crystals of different attributes but lowish % and hoping you fail to craft anything (one your engineers is terrible at 2 flames they might the one to use). You then collect the crystals which will now be at a higher %. Do this so you have a matching pair at >~70 then save and use those two on your best and hope for mega heat. If you fail, reload and try again (maybe swap shooter and engineer)

cacildo said:Nah, they probably have something to say about this in game. Maybe if i get to the ending i have some sort of answer.
Ever since i saw this concept of world-is-a-giant i started to think about how gravity would work.
At Bionis Leg you can see the giant sword above your head, meaning youre up in Bionis thigh, therefore in line with the gravity of the ocean/planet below.
But at nopon village you are in Bionis back, you look up and there´s something that looks like an ocean (but it could be ether flying like in Satorl Marsh, but it looked a lot like an ocean)

I am guessing the 3rd you can get from sidequesting in Alcamoth/Eryth Sea or do you find it after sword valley?thanks in advance.I haven't found any quests related to La LuZ Church (to enter it), and I think I did all of them (I even obtained the 4 th skill set for Dunban) as I can't find any new quest giver.
