The report character limit is so fucking annoyingly small
Also here's a screenshot of all the status buff and debuff icons and descriptions from the guide, if someone wants it. Made it for myself but sharing is caring etc.

I'm confused about the quests and affinity quests that are in the world. There are icons on my map telling me there is a quest in a certain region. But when I search I can't find them.
There supposedly is a quest right next to the eastern gate of new LA, but I can't find it.
Are they timed? Or do I have to do something to make them appear?

That just means to fill in that hexagon you need to do a certain quest, it doesn't mean the quest giver is there.
I really kinda want the Exp Boost X item from the item crafting section of the AM computer, so I decided to check out how many reward tickets I need.
Just a bit over 28000! You get like, what 10-ish for each squad task and 15-ish for each squad mission? This'll be over and done with in a jiffy!

Started the game a few hours ago and, after some messing around in combat and item scavenging, I made it to NLA.
The world is already huge as it is, congrats to Nintendo for developing it.
I have mixed feelings towards the music; some of it would be better suited without lyrics.

And I have plenty of other games to try out too.

I'm so lost in this game.
I'm trying to raise my report rate to 15% to start the next chapter but I'm finding it extremely dull, boring, slow, and overall I'm confused as to what is going on.
This game is so overly complicated and has way to many faults and terrible pacing issues. I just can't anymore.

What are you doing to expand it? Just FYI the quests you get from the terminal outside the barracks don't go towards that.

Yep. Sneaking past high level enemies to get to your goal is a big part of the game.
Started "The Repair Job" or what that affinity quest is called yesterday. That's total bullshit. I need stuff I only get occasionally from mining probes, I had to farm drops from robots where I found exactly 3 existed (I had to wait for their respawn 4 times until I got those 2 dops) and now I have to go to Oblivia and farm whatever there. Ugh. >_>
I'm a pathfinder so I've been trying to get as many probes up as my mechanics level will allow me, finding artifacts, exploring areas. About it. I'm trying to find local quests but I haven't found many, only like 3.
I don't know where half the other game recruits can be found (the one girl and guy from the beginning of the game when you come into NLA I know Lynn and whatsherface is in the barracks)
I have no clue what any other marked part of the map other then the probes are. (Some say completed when I scavenged some artifacts so am I supposed to be doing the other fraction jobs as well?)
I'm not having fun whatsoever I'm so put off from this game.

The Oblivia stuff is by the entrance thankfully. Just a tip for the future, if you need enemies or collectibles to respawn fast travel to the nearest point and they'll respawn. This even works if you fast travel to a location that's two steps away.
The symbols on your map show you what you need to do to survey that area. The probes mean you need to install a probe, the wolf heads mean you need to kill a tyrant there, the paper means it will become surveyed as part of a quest, and the diamonds mean you need to scavenge a certain treasure.
You'd have thought that Primordia being the starting area things would be nice and easy.
No, everything will fuck you up.
Found some dude looking for his friend, who I found no problem. But wait, he's lost his communicator. No problem pal, I'll just pop up this hill and get it - Oh hello pack of level 34 Drex what are you up to? Oh you're here to kill me? Okay.
Dead.
That should be the tag line for the game: Xenoblade Chronicles X: Everything will fuck you up.
I know that feel !!! Happened to me exactly like that hahahaha.
Started streaming and playing this game on Twitch. So far so good and I'm just working on the first quest for Episode 3
Tons of fun so far ! Maybe I'll ask GAFers to come to my stream next time to help me with the game, maybe. I find it kind of overwhelming with the amount of stats/menu the game has...Not sure if that would have really helped with those robots though, as I have to run quite a bit to get there. But thanks anyways, will do that in the future if necessary.

Is there any way to get Alexa prior to unlocking your Skell? Her quest requires me to head to Sylvalum
Ah.
Thank you for explaining that.
I'm still having a crummy gaming experience nonetheless. Does the game pick up in later chapters? I'm sick of this terrible pacing and tracking through the world even with fast travel. Xenoblade Chronicles was so straight forward. I feel like I was just thrown into a empty server of WoW, this game really should had just been a MMO. :/
Swim there. It turns out the invisible wall I encountered is because I was on a story quest.
Not sure if it picks up. I'm enjoying all of the other content so I only just finished chapter 4. That being said the requirements to start chapter 5 are much less time consuming to achieve than the requirements of chapter 4.

love love this game
need California Sunrise
need California Sunrise
Mainly through soul voices and enforcer tree skill has healing spells.
So take any Psycorruptor.(ex : Irina) if you're missing healing soul voice, she will do decent healing (she has only 1 skill or 2 of healing and ther cooldown can be a bot long so don't rely 100% on her).

They're fairly common in caves.

Anyone know what you need to do to unlock rank 5 mechanic? I'm avoiding Eleanora right now since she already made me waste a point.

thanks caves are so impossible right now
How did she make you waste a point?

Exercise those legs!
You can change everything after chapter 5.
Both. There is no other answer.
Covered in the FAQ. There's a workaround but generally, no it does not.
You don't. That's what the GamePad's for.
I suggest reading the multiplayer section in the OP as well as the reddit thread linked there which explains everything in detail.
Yes, it's linked in the OP at the bottom.
The one in the mire you go into as part of Kirsty's second quest has no hostile enemies in the day except fo some scorpios on the ceiling of the side room.
That's relieving to hear.
I'm starting to get sick of trying to find quests to do in the city, there's absolutely nothing.
I thought the whole point of the fractions was to avoid having to be forced to do the other tasks. ._.
There is a cave in Noctilum that only has like level ~12-15 mobs in it.
Whoops, just read that "caves are impossible". xD
Every other cave I found so far was either completely empty or had level 30+ mobs in it. So, well, yeah. xD

I was in that exact same situation except there was only one enemy and the others showed up after I had initiated.
Haha, yeah. I just saw that and jumped down. And then saw like... 5 enemies + a Tyrant. I thankfully beat them, but yeah. Not so pleasant.
What was worse was that stupid level 39 crocodile thing. When you turn back after the "Let's take a detour" cutscene and run the water, that thing jumped me and just oneshotted me right there.

Really cant decide on a class. Sniper seems fine but it fires sooooo slow.
This game has too many choices.
Is it just me or do you level your classes pretty fast? Almost too fast for my taste.

My NNID is kinhow, let's play people!
Also, are you guys experiencing some problems wirh the comnection? Tried to play yesterday and I was getting a message "Disconnectes frm server" every 20 minutes or so.
Is there a way to reconect to the server without having to exit the game?

She wouldn't let me upgrade to 5 and you can't back out of the menu. So I had to put the point somewhere else, even though I've seen rank 5 stuff around. Blade Rank takes too long for me to want to wait longer for rank 5 than I have to.

How is the English voice acting in this? Just noticed it doesn't have dual audio like Xenoblade did, which is a major bummer for me.

Balls. And my affection quest forces me to talk to her, she still doesn't let me rank up to 5, and now 15k more to go until the next try.
