When you get the flight module the world becomes smaller and at the same time bigger.

Where can I find the items the Arms Manufacturers offer when you level them up?
In the shop at your left.
Their whole design is kind of stupid, not just the helmet.
You never
get one in your party or anything, but at least one sidequest leads to a Delfinian settling in NLA.

Where the heck do I find information about where my party members are located in NLA?
The map, they first come up as a tick, and then after you've spoken to them they turn into the gold recon complete icon.

Hey guys,
Where can I find Gi Dou pumpkins
in Oblivia ? Thanks
Where can I find Gi Dou pumpkins
for the skell license exam
Even though I complete the segment, I can still find a tyrant or a treasure box I've never seen and these stuffs will not affect the exploration rate. I need to pay more attention to some completed segment and maybe there will be a new tyrant waiting for me. Exploration never ends!

I am finally "getting" combat!
I love it now, I setup my soul voices, I constantly watch for positioning and flashing arcs so I know to use the right one. I'm also getting better at hitting the B prompts.
- I still wish I had some indication of when a B prompt might pop up, it just seems so random. Maybe i'm missing something here.
- Do P points or whatever they are called carry over to the next battle?
- I am constantly getting weapons that I can't use, do you guys sell them or hang onto them?
- Do you guys wait for cooldowns or wait for someone to call out that arc type before using it or just use it as needed regardless of soul voices?

Don't forget the 1.5m per party member to get your lvl 55 gear to beat the story.

That's the easy part. If you have a Phoenix on your skell it only takes 1 move to end that fight. Wait until afterwards.
(At least my 9,000 orange Phoenix did)
It got blown up right as I killed the dude before that. :l
God, that is going to take me forever, I haven't even touched the two northern continents and I'm deep into the 60 hours.
At least I'm helping NLA people I guess... except for the Celeste Trio quest. What in the world!? I pray for the people that take that quest without at least a Skell or at least a well geared party.

My friend tried that quest before he had a Skell, it didn't end well.

People put too much emphasis on how good these are to be honest. If you get sick of farming then move on. You're using these to get the Ares, after that they're not important.

I have that HUD element disabled, but I suppose you just know/learn the icons after a while.
If you see the monsters out in the wild, there will be a small stylised "S" over their heads.

Yeah, that is one of the major gripes I have with the character designs in the game aside from the creepy real doll faces.
There's absolutely no need for shape shifting aliens that could look like literally anything to wear some sort of bondage outfit designed to show off tits and ass. Same complaint about the female Kilrathi as well as those female Ganglions. Just shitty pandering that makes me think less of the designers (because they think so little of their audience).

Also you can hold R and tap L to cycle through each one and see the names of the enemies you need. This link is very useful for quickly locating Squad Task targets. It'll show you some useful locations where they can be killed quickly and turn Squad Tasks from a 'kill them if you chance upon them' thing to a decent source of quick and easy tickets.
Chapter 10 was fucking awesome.
I was really worried for a second there that they were going to pull the whole "you're not ready to actually destroy Zu Pharg yet!" card, only to be overjoyed when it landed on the ground. Ryzz even said something to the effect of the old "this isn't even my final form" to really drive home how crazy the whole scenario was. It's about as epic a fight as I've seen in an RPG, to the point where I'm worried about the last two chapters matching that kind of experience. Where do you actually go from there as far as threats that would actually match battleship-sized scorpion tank?
The wreckage staying in the center of the lake was a really nice touch, too.

why? Quest was easy

i was level 60 with a good build when I did it yesterday
Well, honestly I was also doubling it up as a way to get Celica up to the same level. She's one of the party members I haven't got Affinity up for, but she was low level too.

Even after a dozen hours in a region, I'm still finding new locations, paths, and secrets; it's crazy how dense the world design is. Oddly, it makes me appreciate the more throw-away quests a lot, giving me unusual goals to strive for (e.g. find item X, which I've never encountered, encouraging me to go into new territory; or, Hunt X for Y, which requires farming specific enemy types and learning how they work, and where they are). It's one of the most well-realised open worlds out there, with how many mechanics come together to make it shine.
Fun stuff.
Should've called that mission No Offense.
...No offense.

Fuck that Sylvalum mission where you gonna get revenge on prone asscaves like fuck those morfo-whatever those fucking flowers joining in the fray and that fucking tyrant that has no business being there decimating my party like fuck. Wait till I bring my A-team to kill every single one of you!
Just ranting a bit after 3 frustrating tries lol. Gonna try a new strategy for that one.

My strategy was - scout a high level dude.
I was really underlevelled for it, had been doing stuff with my Skell, so I just couldnt handle the area at all since you can't use it and there's loads of enemies in close proximity. .
I think that's been an annoying problem for me, I don't think I've ever felt I was the right level for something. I've always been under or over.

Actually the fight was doable at my current team, even if I had a lvl.25 Frye at my team. The problem really was the gate crashers that keep appearing out of nowhere, especially that tyrant that I don't see anywhere when I engage the target asscaves then just pops out when I'm close to killing them. Maybe I'll try luring them out of their spots and see if that tyrant will still interrupt.
I'm still really surprised that they didn't offer a save option when you want to return to the title screen. Monster Hunter has had that for the longest time.

How about you just ... you know, save?
The issue with auto-saving in this game could be that it'd lock you in a story or affinity quest that may take you a long time to complete due to low level or whatever. Like that first Lin affinity quest I did. Could have been stuck in there forever if I accepted that mission and wasn't prepared for it. I manually save often myself for this game just like I do with Fallout games... etc.

No spoilers here but I didn't realise until I got to the post game just how large my revenge list had grown. I've been crossing names off of it like crazy.
In all fairness they could've had auto-saves in addition to manual saves. I don't think it's a big problem, though.
Oh my entire team was underlevelled.
I still lured even with a higher level scout dude.
Honestly that's been the only time I've had to use a higher level scout. The other quests had been managable.

What a great idea. Hey everybody, it's the great idea guy.
Yea I get what you're saying, but a simple save prompt on quest completion would alleviate all the problems I've had. That way you're not forced into it, and not stuck in anything. Actually, they do this for the story missions already, would have been great to just add it to all mission completes.
Yeah if my strategy still doesn't work I'm gonna bring Team Elma for this part of the quest as the original trio plus an extra has always been my best party. I'm only bringing other guys for the affinity and experience, but looks like it's not worth it for this fight.
