Guys... I'm really, really happy with this game. This is just too good to be true.
I'm on chapter... Four, I guess -- I just
. I'm so hooked to the mechanics and the exploration that I've barely touched the main story. Awesome game.

1. Local quests ? What're these ?
Can you explain, what you're looking for ?
2. The wiki is your friend : http://xenoblade.wikia.com/wiki/Irina
3. Have you checked the manual ?
Lot of basic things are explained in there or even the wiki for other stuff.
Well, that's normal that you're not enjoying the game at the moment since you're trying to figure out the basics of the game.
Keep up the questions, we're here to help you and give you hint where to look at. That's what communities are for.
I'm doing my first affinity mission, I hope they are not all a chores like this. I'm doing The Repair Job, finally found where to get energy tube and now I gotta wait for my probes to dig white cometites... any way to speed this up ?
On mining node that can give them in Primordia I used mining node lvl 2. Oh and does anybody know if you camp an ennemy spot do you need to leave to have them respawn or they'll respawn on top of you ?

You can't, the game was built around the gamepad not the pro controller so expect flaws with it.
My roomates was able to do them (solo MP quest) at level 17-18. You just have to check the board in your barrack.
1. Personally, I didn't have problem with that quest because I found the items during my exploration and I've planted enough probes too.
2. You will get ressources from probes every 30 mins go do something else meanwhile
3. No, you've to "refresh" the map with fast travel
4. You can plant normal probes, they will give you money and miranium. The special probes just give more of 1 ressources while giving less of the other. So plant has much as you can to make your life more easier, imo

Dumb question: Where can I buy probes?
Just switch to TV mode and the map will be displayed, then switch back when you're done.
It's basically the same thing as having a map button
Not sure if you can, but you'll find plenty with your field skills and from missions.

I think you have to complete the Blade training first. You can rush through it pretty quickly.
Only quests and treasures reward, the good thing is you don't lose them if you decide to switch probes.
So, I was going for Samurai at first, but then I switch to Commando in order to go for sniper riffle next. The thing is, I've spend quite a lot of points to Samurai, so I'm not sure if I'll manage to max everything in the new class later... Will there be a problem with that?
How do I switch to tv mode?
You've 3-4 type of quests in this game :
- affinity quest (develop lore, character and story back ground)
- fetch quest (just there to make some money and get some items)
- Multiplayer quests
All of them has a mix of talk to X npcs, kill X, search X item (usual stuff)
The feeling is diferent than DA : I because most of the things you loot will be usefull either for character customisation or quests.
I'm really feeling like an rpg explorer in this game and also as a hunter, lol
Do those fetchs quests (Blade mission) only if you need to explore a new zone or grind, don't do them otherwise unless they might reward you probes or an item you specificly want.
Beside npcs quests are more interesting to do.
Example : today, I'm going back to Noctilus because I want to level up some characters so I'm taking some fetch quests for there so I've a purpose while leveling up.
Got trapped in some machinery and couldn't jump out...first time I have had to use Fast Travel...but hey, atleast I got an achievement for it.
Also, after putting so much into Arts for Dual Guns and Dual Blades...going the Sniper/Javalin Route, so all them Battle Points are wasted for now.

By looking at the GamePad.
He meant Off-TV and seems to be confused about what you were asking, I think. You have to look at the GamePad. There's no other way.

They want you to switch around like a madman.
Man, the map/minimap desperately needs to show the objectives height. I'm doing the quest The Celeste Three, where the hell is
?
Most quests are more or less fetch and/or kill quests. Some don't have story at all, some have unvoiced NPCs with their own little stories and some are voiced affinity quests with other BLADE members, but really 90% of the quests so far have been of the "go here and fetch/kill me some of that/this".

Is there any way to store items and equipment? I want to collect the casual outfits but my inventory get very cluttered that way. Is there any way to store them, so i dont sell them by accident?

lol. oh well I guess I'm gonna have to keep charging the game pad and looking at it when ever necessary.
Yeah, that's my guess too. It's really easy to take a class to level 10.

If the marker is the yellow circle, pay attention to its translucency. If it's not a solid color then the goal is below or above you, I think.
Do you have a charging cradle? Just put it in there.
Do they even give any stat boosts? I know the descriptions talk of offense, defense etc, but I figured they just mean the skills.
Best way to grind affinity? Need one heart with Lao to start an affinity quest
Just having him in my party and responding to soul voices I think increased the affinity between us.

This game really demands patience but is very rewarding.

I think I spent two hours yesterday trying to get my Primordia survey coverage up from 12% to 15% so I could start chapter 4, In actuality I achieved jackshit in this time, the struggle continues.
Is there a way to restrict party members from using their TP skills so often? They all use them as soon as they hit 1000 TP, no questions asked, like every time. I want them to revive me occasionally, and use overdrive too.
I know some battle actions raise it, I was just wondering if there's a good way.

Lol, Potatsu
I love the fact that I can actually hit higher level enemies in this game. Kill a medium-large enemy that's 5-10 levels higher than you and they give you like 500-1500 exp per kill, which means ten kills is enough for one level at level 30. They're usually even fairly easy all things considered.
For me the problem with Tatsu is his voice , they killed the character IMO. If i could put him on mute i would like him a lot more lol. Now i want the japanese audio /voices for the game (._. )

Just look at the map on the gamepad and travel by foot from the one from Primordia to Noctilum.
Edit: Or just use the Follow Ball?
I got one quest I have to go to
Cauldros( haven't gone here)
Sylvalum( haven't gone here either)
Sadly, I gave up on the Pro Controller myself and exclusively use the gamepad now because of the map. It's pointlessly forced as there is no reason a map couldn't have been included in the menu with all features accessible by a pro controller, but alas. I despise the gamepad but love the game enough so far to shackle myself to it.
Also hate that if connection gets lost to the online servers, you gave to reset to the title screen to get back online. No option in game to reconnect?

"Oh hey I could go get the probe site or check out that wreckage"
"Neat, there's a bunch of field items scattered around the OH MY GOD"
In the future, I will always go to the probe first.

Ffs, I keep getting attacked and killed by a lvl 65 tyrant while I'm fighting some guys I need to kill for an affinity mission.
I just finished chapter 4 and kind of surprised how much I don't mind not doing story stuff. I'm 13 hours in and have mostly just been picking up generic quests from the board and aimlessly wandering. I guess this confirms for me that the exploration was the thing I most enjoyed in the first Xenoblade.
I have a question about squad messages though. Whenever I enable them I get not only squad messages but little Tatsu messages in the corner so I turned it back off. Is there a way to get rid of these Tatsu tips?
EDIT: Also is there a reason I randomly get disconnected from online? It usually happens in the middle of cutscenes or dialogue so is there like an idle feature?
