To extend overdrive I think you need to get another 3000 tp and press it again. Combos will make overdrive give bonuses though

I thought certain color combinations gave you more time though?

both colour combination and 3000 tp reuse before overdrive ends... at higher count, colour combination time extend is enough to sustain the overdrive duration, depending on your build
Cauldros collectopedia gives you one also. There's 9 total in the game.

Does anyone have a quick method of leveling up? I wanna do the New in New LA affinity mission but I need to be level 44.
I'm currently level 41.

oh wow I didn't know you can change to matte for skell colour customization
Just got my first skell. The jumping and exploration just got ramped up. Super fun and rewarding.
I already blew through my insurance I think. Jumped off into a bottomless pit in Oblivia and got one-shotted by a level 55 tyrant. Good times.

Is there anything I can spend Miranium on before chapter 4?
I've already maxed out the two manufacturers I have access to.

AE lvl 40-55 stuff with your Skell(s). \o/

To be able to see an Augment on your list, you need at least 1 of the first item required by it. Weapon blueprints are dropped by high level Marnuck and Milsaadi enemies.
I'm not near the game at the moment. There's a spot with enemy skell near FN 504 in Cauldros. They are level 50 but super easy to kill.

I was just in Sylvalum looking for some blue sparkly things for some quest or another when I spotted a yellow treasure blip on my mini map. Normally when I know I'm going to be collecting items I'll switch to my crappiest, light Skell with piss poor weapons as a way to discourage me from exploring or getting tied up in combat and generally getting distracted from gathering (I can't help myself). Anyway, I flew down to the treasure and immediately had a crapload of prone aggro onto me. Normally I'd bug out and come back for the treasure later in my combat Skell, but for whatever reason decided to tough it out.
G-Buster sword in the loot after they'd died
I've heard people farm it as a good stepping stone for working towards the Ares 90 and I've heard horror stories of people spending days trying to get one to drop. I can't even equip it for another 4 levels. 35k damage looks insane compared to what I have equipped at the moment.

If you have 3 or more people in skells then go find level low level 50 easy enemies like forfax or Blattas. Then fight them 1 by 1. This is the best way to level up plain and simple.
Ah, okies. I've been struggling to optimize the cash/miranium output, and I found your earlier post to be very helpful. Even though the top half of Noctilum is obscured & most of Cauldros isn't explored. Which spots in Cauldros and Sylvanum would you recommend dropping some probes?
Yeah how do you do that? I see where it says Gloss but I couldn't figure out how to change it

In the color customizarion there's a button option on the side of "change finish"
Mine have all been matte since day 1
I'm not on the game right now, but check for everything with 2/2 sightseeing spots, these give the most. Next, for A revenue. I've found out that Cauldros is really helpful in that aspect, there are a lot of nice spots, so I highly recommend to explore it.
I was trying to bring my miranium storage on over 100K but I failed at 87K.
Does anyone know how many Storage Probes are in the game? I have 8 but I'd really do with a couple more...

Did you finish Cauldros collectopedia ?
Nope, far from it. Damn, collectopedia is the worst.
Got it, thanks.

How do I add augments like say Beam res III to an item with an empty slot
HOW!?
Yeah. Do at least Cauldros it gives you one.
Look at the bottom right when you change color, I think it's Y. (Not in front of the game at the moment).

Is the Scary Shrooms squad mission glitched?
I've been running around but can't find the Arenatact I'm supposed to kill after killing the owls.

Press x when hovering over the item to augment when you're in the character's gear page (same option list that you access fashion gear from).
2 things:
1. Is there a way to reconnect when you disconnect and go into offline mode
2. The rankings are some bulllshiitttttttttttttttt, and this is coming from a curator. Fucking bandwagoners.
The fastest way to reconnect is going back to the main menu and reload. Yup, no way in game I shit you not.

Never man. After running around for twenty minutes I found it.
And after finishing the mission I get disconnected. Of course.
Still I got my items and tickets. Thanks game.

I also would like to know the answer to this question.
How DO you unlock more gems/augments from being able to be engineered?
I would love to get an augment to gain more TP via arts that are meant for TP building.

So, something great just happened, I go to continue my last saved game and the loading bar just stops a quarter of the way through and sends me back to the main menu... save corrupted? There goes 60h+.
Any idea when we'll get a spoiler thread for this game, Is there a set rule ?
I know I'm in the minority of the crazies who are already done. (Played 138 hours in 8 days -_- )
Try launching the game while being offline. It happened to me once and that fixed it. I went back online after.

Hahahahaha. Caves and underground areas cause so much map confusion in this game!
That reminds me of an Affinity Quest I did after Chapter 5 that takes you into a part of Noctilum. I had gotten over to the general area okay with a little stealthing needed... But when I got over there, it seemed like the nav pointer was directing me to this place up high, whereas I was at sea level. So I went around and took the land bridge over to that area, just kinda stealthing my way there and running past the high-level creatures. But when I got up there, I was greeted by certain death in one direction (I know what that environment means) and a path leading away from where I want to go.
I feel like I'm reading a wonky GPS sometimes trying to figure out precisely where the, "This can't be right" moment is and turning around. When I finally did a U-turn and found it, I felt really dumb for the ridiculous detour.
The world of the original Xenoblade Chronicles was constructed for on-foot exploration, so there are foot paths and discernable paths for most of where you needed to get to, even the secret spots.
X's world is different. It feels initially much less "designed" and more organic. There are many paths to get to locales, and at first it doesn't feel like it's made for people to traverse.
Then you get the skells and you understand that the world was made for skell traversal. That sense of opening up feels very unique and exhilarating.

Follow ball. Love the follow ball.
Good question, why isn't there one?
No rule, you could make one right now if you want to
I'm already at around 70 hours, with my true non-idle playtime being closer to 64 hours. This game just has so many things for players to do...
One thing I'm realizing is that the areas that looked fun to traverse due to scary overleveled monsters are becoming rarer now that I'm level 43, and that's a real shame. I still had to get the hell away from a couple lv 90 monsters in northern Noctilum, but most of my map traversal is really safe now (g-busters are so overpowered it isn't even funny). Even prone camps full of level ~48 stuff are safe as long as I don't battle too many enemies at once, and I'm no longer tempted to run away from most tyrants.
Earlier today I beat the mission where you'd rescue a BLADE's cat, but then I stopped paying attention to the dialog at the end of the mission and only got to hear Elma saying "you'll see in due time", which got me curious about what she might've been talking about and kind of frustrated that there's no way for me to check what happened outside looking for that cutscene in YouTube.

It becomes useless sometime when you fly. But most of the time it works beautifully.
That's true, but I always feel like the follow ball takes away some of the fun of hoofing it through an unknown territory. I like seeing the little blue dot on the mini map and kinda figuring out the path for myself. Kinda reminds me of how Metroid Prime worked, now that I think about it.
But yeah, I probably do waste a decent amount of time not using it much.

Since 1998 I've been chasing that 'walking into Hyrule field' high over and over. A few games delivered - Oblivion, Fallout 3, Okami etc. This game has managed it three goddamned times; leaping from that first cliff, running around and fighting in your first Skell, and that absolutely glorious moment when you fly out over the walls of NLA in your Skell.
I had swam up to Sylvalum early on in order to place the first probe at the entrance before teleporting back to NLA but now I've official gone there for Alexa's prototype quest. I was all ready to take in the view from the starting archway when some lvl 54 giant robot thing spotted me and nearly wrecked my skell.
