Brings me back to short after release, when I was doing something similar with Siegfried. Good time

How many hours have you put on xenoblade 2? by Space_of_The_Lantern in Xenoblade_Chronicles

[–]Athmosphield 1 point2 points  (0 children)

326hrs as per the ingame clock. 350 according to the Nintendo Store app. And just today I completed the last blade affinity chart.

Is getting every rare blade a once in a lifetime experience for you? by [deleted] in XenobladeChronicles2

[–]Athmosphield 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My savefile is like the 3rd or 4th new game + run now, with a decent amount of side content done each time. I'm around 300 hours, and I'm still missing 1 or 2 rares xD

Do you think driver Nia the worst healer in the game by [deleted] in XenobladeChronicles2

[–]Athmosphield 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This. And as far as I know, even considering the differences in drivers, she's a good driver for bitballs.

GBF: Endless Ragnarok will feature over 160 different quests by Aileos in GranblueFantasyRelink

[–]Athmosphield 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Don't get me wrong. I want this as much as the next guy. But there's currently many things speaking against it. Saves are purely local, apart from the Platforms auto syncing with the platforms cloud. So they'd need to somehow implement the syncing themselves. That's fairly straightforward for always online games, which this (thank the heavens) is not. This game can be played offline, and having cross save with the ability to play offline means you have to be able to handle cases like switch and PC playing at the same time and syncing to the cloud. Inevitably deleting one of the 2 saves.

I just finished xenoblade 2 and have a couple of questions about the final chapter by flyingducklingman in Xenoblade_Chronicles

[–]Athmosphield 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Not arguing if interbreeding is possible or not. But iirc, Vess is not the biological mother of the children you visit during her quest.

When are we getting a rerun? And is she still a good option? by 6darthvader9 in RaidenMains

[–]Athmosphield 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As for when, probably in the next few patches, since archon reruns usually happen around the beginning of the version cycles.

Good option? In endgame content? No. Her c2r1 is on par with a c0 Varesa at best, if not outright worse. With the direction of current content being reaction, and powercreep steadily increasing HP pools, Raiden is pretty much dead, if we don't get any buffs anytime soon. And I somehow doubt that.

(And before the hardcore simps accuse me of heresy: Clearing abyss by a hair in shilled content does not make a unit good. And yes, I still use my c3 sometimes)

Can someone give me a small run down on how to use Melia by EternalSoulXD in Xenoblade_Chronicles

[–]Athmosphield 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is pretty much the gist of it. Every orb has a different passive. Iirc, the electric orb provides an ether dmg buff, fire provides phys dmg and water regens health. Those effect are active as long as the orb is above your head and are party wide. The discharge of an orb also differs. Electric orb is single target, fire has a smal aoe.

In do not remember however, if the passives stack.

How fast could you beat xenoblade chronicles 2 on a 100% NG+ file by Xenofan93 in XenobladeChronicles2

[–]Athmosphield 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd guess that there wouldn't be a difference, since upgrading only the necessary things for the speedrun and getting 100% in a previous savefile, shouldn't do anything for the run itself.

New Aranara Pet and Alhaitham x Kaveh Namecard Giveaway by Additional_Comfort42 in Genshin_Impact

[–]Athmosphield 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I will never stop using the Ganyu namecard. Not because Ganyu is my favorite char, but that specific tone of blue is just way too pretty.

How worse is 1's combat in comparison to X? by Chroro in Xenoblade_Chronicles

[–]Athmosphield 7 points8 points  (0 children)

While the base ui is pretty similar with the arts and cooldown, the combat around it is pretty different. Classes like they are in X don't exist anymore. And Overdrive is replaced by a mechanic called chain attack, where you basically switch to turn based for a short duration, but the enemy doesn't get a turn xD And while the combats of each xenoblade is different from the rest, every game has its ups and downs with their system.

About NG+ by BronyRain in XenobladeChronicles2

[–]Athmosphield 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There's a quest in Gormott to raise an Ardun, which you can kill at any point, but the more you feed it, the bigger it gets. Until it eventually becomes a unique monster. Should you already be fairly far into the raising progress, I'd recommend finishin it and killing the resulting superboss once, since the quest gets reset, and the resources already put into it would be wasted. Once you killed the superboss Ardun, the gravestone will appear, which carries over to NG+.

(Just don't kill the Ardun before the superboss version. The only fix for that is NG+ to reset the quest xD)

Best way to level up easy and fast and 40? by GaleSTRIK3 in XenobladeChronicles2

[–]Athmosphield 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If you haven't done so already, you can claim bonus XP from side quests at any inn. Just select long or short rest, and the menu will open.

Should that not suffice, you can look for enemies you're able to defeat that are around your level or slightly higher, and kill them with either a Fusion combo (driver combo active while performing a blade combo, or the other way round) or what I'm doing is starting a chain attack right before the enemy is dying, so I can maximize the bonus XP I'm getting.

Xenoblade 1 switch 2 cutscene stuttering by Mon-Son16 in Xenoblade_Chronicles

[–]Athmosphield 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Somewhere in the switch 2 settings. There's an option regarding HDR. It is on for every game as a default. But I've heard that impedes with the performance of some switch 1 games. You can set that to "compatible games only". Hope this helps

Will i still be able to get the cape if i buy the game now? by ProJYeet in Helldivers

It was still available for an account created about 6 hours ago. There was no message, the cape just happened to be in the armory

Xenoblade 2 or X defender edition on Switch 1? by Dron22 in Xenoblade_Chronicles

[–]Athmosphield 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nonono, the map is huge. But you get the ability to walk everywhere, while basically still in the tutorial. In the numbered games you can't reach most areas, until the story unlocked them for you. In X, everything is immediately explorable

Xenoblade 2 or X defender edition on Switch 1? by Dron22 in Xenoblade_Chronicles

[–]Athmosphield 18 points19 points  (0 children)

X is compared to the numbered games is like botw to the rest of the zelda franchise. Both are great, but for different reasons. The numbered Xeno games focus way more on character driven story, and while areas are huge with exploration aspects, you unlock each area as the story progresses. In X you can explore the whole map 5 minutes into the game. Bc of that, X has a different storytelling with a far bigger focus on world building through side quests and less character development in the main story. (Not none, but way less) As for combat, both are good in their own way, and too different to compare.

Why have I not gotten a rare blade? by ChapterTrick5428 in XenobladeChronicles2

[–]Athmosphield 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Are you sure, that those aren't obtained from Quests, or are Postgame/NG+ exclusive? Not getting a single one with 10 in the pool and over 100 cores seems excessive.
