Just finish chapter 4. Did take a detour in Noctium...Water is not your friend and that thing was not a damn skell. I went all 'Hey that skells looks cool...wait...oh crap!! Swim damn it! Swim!' Then I turn around to see the shore....lv 40 monster waiting for me. How i manage to escape is short of having amazing luck! Love that feeling the game can give of the truly unknown.

Is there any reason to do the same online squad mission over and over again other than tickets and items?

You could escape that thing?! I somehow think that thing could move, so I save before jumping into the water. Ha! My party was rekt within three seconds.

I'd have at least 1 that uses TP. Someone can correct me if i'm wrong, but they usually are more powerful then the ones that don't use TP. You build TP and need to spend it on something otherwise it goes to waste.
I'll just give my personal theory on this.
The timer was just supposed to be for those who are awake during their space travel in White Whale to force inform everyone awake that there are power problems when they remained adrift for too long without anything to renew their energy sources. It just so happen that things got out of control when they were ambushed, crashed down on an unknown territory and force awake more people in Mira to rebuild their colony. And those who were waken or who were long awake but not oriented because they aren't higher-ups were not informed of the significance of the timer to not cause panic and chaos. And people may just be "meh" when they see the countdown.

Personally I like weapons that can hit multiple enemies like the BB Sword.
I also found a Voltstorm and G2 Buster that hit multiple enemies. \o/
The readout being an easy way for the crew to check the Lifehold's power supply at all times while in flight does seem to be a plausible in-universe reason. Though making most NLA citizens ignorant of its true significance might have been easier to swallow if they knew its purpose from the beginning, but not why the current state was cause for concern. Like if the cover story was that the 'countdown' was just a result of the readout malfunctioning due to the connection being temporarily severed, and the twist would be the revelation that it's actually reflecting the current state of the Lifehold.

What is the point in talking to other player avatars and asking for division support?
Other then that yellow box over each division icon appearing I see no benefit.
I also see based on division rankings most people have left for the most popular one.
My division the pathfinder are the lowest. Oh well. I'm sticking with them.

You need the Phoenix AoE weapon. It does a ton of AoE damage. I don't think it's available at the shops, you need to grind mechs for it.
Pls stahp. I only have 76k.140K income. I'm becoming greedy.
Yeah, Harrier for life! I am not that concerned about the extra spoils I get, I am more interested in the melee damage boost this division gives me.
I'm assuming the involvement of the "government" could have affected how information was distributed to the citizens of NLA. Remember how the old dude Maurice lied about 10 new survivors at the beginning? And the citizens look to be so carefree anyway that the majority simply accepted it as a fact.
Manual says that it boosts the chance of certain effects, or makes certain effects guaranteed instead of chance.
Idk may be tales from my ass.

What level were you?
Still, I don't really understand how in the world they can
check the backup power levels of the main lifehold unit remotely. Even if they had some sort of ultra-range futuristic wi-fi, wouldn't that allow them to pinpoint the lifehold unit's location?
Or am I getting it all wrong and are thos numbers
the back-up generator for a system that keeps mims alive? That'd make a lot more sense since that one could be a module that's actually part of NLA rather than a mysterious lost module that's somehow sending energy readings remotely.
Jeez, I haven't even found enough research probes to get anywhere close. I haven't even got enough of any level to get a 3 link. :|Man, a couple more Research probes and I'll hit 200K. 180K+ right now.
33 iirc
That said, I'm only after chapter 6.

You mean like the game manual that comes with every copy of the game ? >_>
Blackout reduce the accuracy, evasion and the amount of damage dealt by ranged weapon.

A lot of tech from the White Whale ship scattered during its destruction before NLA crashed landed.

I don't think anyone answered this yet, but you can only Bind if an enemy is Stagger'd. So, add more weapons that cause that if you want more.

The bigger question is how the heck do you carry around things like a kangaroo that you just randomly pick up.

Anyone know the song that plays when you are in Dead Man's Gulch in Noctilum at night?
What does he do, anyway? He's tagging along with my guys but I didn't notice any tangible benefit. Am I missing some new mechanic or does he really just stay around to take part in story conversations?
If you ask for their Division support you get that players division bonus. HP regen from Pathfinders....melee bonus from Harriers....etc
It's a nice little bonus, but it doesn't last forever.

He's there so Lin can make horrible food related jokes at his expense.
And occasionally do something that kinda impacts the plot.

Cool! I thought he sounded like Jesse from the 90s Pokemon series, or maybe that was someone else..?
They don't need to receive a signal, you could calculate the remaining power by knowing how much power the backup unit had and how much is consumed in a unit of time by the lifehold.
Even if they don't know the exact time the lifehold got detached from the white whale the calculation would be accurate enough to give them a "time limit".

It's pretty amazing how time can just vanish when you're exploring without even any particular mission at hand. There's so much stuff to discover everywhere.
I think the game has done a real good job of making exploring freely not tied to any specific goals, but still given some urgency since probe sites are important and you need to up survey rate to progress in the story. It strikes the perfect balance of giving you the feeling that what you're doing is meaningful, without putting much pressure on you to do it so it feels like a chore.

Ok how do you guys handle the 4th character position? I understand you pretty much need Lin and Elma for everything, so do you guys just rotate out a fourth?
Lately I just randomly pick up one of the random other characters, although they don't say jack shit in really of the missions outside their own affinity missions. So I carry a guy in my party and then use a Scout player as my 4th when I see them out in the field. That way i feel like I'm helping another person out by using their avatar.
