Xenoblade Chronicles X Play Journal Entries Stagger Lanayru79 12/13/2015 4:56 PM I'm almost out of feasible options that don't involve Sylvanum and Cauldros, which I want the main story to take me to before I accept Missions in either place. It seems my fourth journal entry on this 100% playthrough will start w/ Chapter 6. I guess my billion credits and I want Skells. :p 60% in Oblivia was gratifying. Exploring and taking on Tyrants over my head is too much fun. I'll start w/ E Yeah! e 14 r 100 D Advertisement Share this Post 1 Tweet 2 Share Embed Comment Zachary 12/14/2015 7:33 PM How many people do you have you can play as!? E Yeah!? e 0 Stagger 12/14/2015 8:02 PM A lot. Sixteen so far. Even more than Oblivia's massive metal rings, I've wanted to get close to that giant incandescent green orb since laying eyes on it. Of course a bunch of murderous machines would intervene in a straight run at the thing. I'm hoping to do enough here to at least match my 25% work in Oblivia earlier, and that it gets Hope to 2-heart Affinity. E Yeah! e 0 D Sciz 12/14/2015 8:06 PM The Noctilucent... Tree? Orb? I don't remember. It's pretty cool I guess. E Yeah! e 0 D Zachary 12/14/2015 8:08 PM Dang man are you serious!? I'm so hype! E Yeah!? e 0 Stagger 12/14/2015 8:15 PM ·Spoilers Heard about this at a BC, but it still got me excited ... counting the one decimated at the end of Chapter 4, that's a third piece of the Lifehold located. Of course, there's nothing I can do about it yet, heh. @Dean: You are such a fuddy-duddy. Where's your sense of wonder man? :p Yes, I'll participate in your discussiin on Supers any time I have the free comments. That Leviathan over the Giant! E Yeah♥ e 1 D Sciz 12/14/2015 8:33 PM Perhaps I'm pretending not to care. The name I truly can't remember, but I quite like that particular landmark. E Yeah! e 0 D Stagger 12/14/2015 8:35 PM It's in Hardheart Canyon I believe, but I'm not through with an initial exploration of the periphery. These guys freak me out btw. Awesome design. Also, the caves are magical level-up factories. E Yeah! e 1 D Stagger 12/14/2015 9:02 PM I meant the "statue" on the left there in the screen above, don't have their name down yet but they stopped this hodgepodge crew cold inside the ... Dim of the Behemoth was it? Nice Dune reference here, much respect to Frank Herbert shown by Monolith in a simple gesture ... I maxed Duelist, a second class. The natural move from here is either up the middle tree to have a foothold in all three. E Yeah! e 0 D Stagger 12/14/2015 10:20 PM So much is wrong with this screen. Mama Mura came down during a separate Basic, so it's two odd bats with one stone. Playing with three Arts is wrong, but even more despicable is my dumb luck to not have fallen into a trap w/ a goofy party. Not too much more I plan to do in Sylvalum before bringing the band back together, at which point I'll have to resist the temptation to crush some other stuff. E Yeah! e 0 D Stagger 12/14/2015 10:34 PM Yup. Sylvalum is hypnotic. E Yeah♥ e 1 D Zachary 12/15/2015 4:36 AM Wow lovely view! E Yeah! e 0 Stagger 12/15/2015 5:35 AM Ah, Blade Rank 9 opened up new Basic Missions. Guess who's on the menu? Tastes like chicken ... big gator going down. I couldn't resist a little vengeance on Sarcosuchus. Now give me a holofigure, Iron-Eater. Big guy, but get him out of the water and lop that massive tail off, and he's mincemeat. E Yeah! e 0 D Stagger 12/15/2015 6:30 AM This is why I'll play 500 hours on this file, minimum. I enjoy stuff like this. I broke 30% surveyed in Sylvalum, and could probably leisurely hit 50. I get off on just exploring in strange weather conditions like this. When Hope hits the 2-heart mark, I'll take on her second Affinity Mission, then decide whether to advance the story that I'm wildly over-levelled for. :p E Yeah! e 0 D Stagger 12/15/2015 7:57 AM Whew, 40% is inevitable now. I actually haven't tried to look for Segment Recons at all today, just get Probes planted and gain my bearings in this enormous continent. The one missing in the northwest requires Mechanical Skill Level 5, which can't be achieved at this point in the game. The one in the southeast is a riddle, and the Nopon caravan if I had to guess. E Yeah! e 0 D Stagger 12/15/2015 8:17 AM ·Spoilers Aha! Through Behemoth's Shadows is the way ... but this is the mother of caves that I've found so far. There is a breed of Adsecula that kind of lights the way to progress, but I'm unsure if it will take Skell flight to actually reach the desired exit or not yet. Not exactly a hospitable place ... E Yeah!? e 1 D Stagger 12/15/2015 8:52 AM ·Spoilers As far as I could tell, it will take flight to reach the exit to that Miranium depost, and almost certainly the final Nopon caravan. Lots of level-up action brawling, and a few Tyrants for just slightly later in there as well ... Speaking of, hello Mikul. The Keystone isn't that big ancient machine on the left. He's a cleverly disguised Falsaxum. Sylvalum is full of environmentally hidden foes. E Yeah♥ e 0 D Stagger 12/15/2015 9:19 AM Aw yeah, broke 40%! If you examine closely, very few gold shields of segment recon relative to the size of Sylvalum ... while I'm nowhere near as steady a navigator here or Cauldros as I am on the previous three continents, I'll know my way around in my Skells. Just a couple few challenges I want to try here before returning to Cauldros for a couple stealth attempts. C'mon Hope, like me already.:p E Yeah! e 0 D Stagger 12/15/2015 10:03 AM I do have some other cleanup of my Mission screen too. These Purgovents are tricky. Tyrant Libra taught me to start the fun, then run up the shore a bit, but they still climb to a great elevation the longer the battle goes on. Then there's the Launch effect if you Topple them and get in close. I've got it locked up now though ... E Yeah! e 0 D Stagger 12/15/2015 10:34 AM What an amazing fight! By both sides, heh. Vilem resides over water, so again I had to use a makeshift Lure tactic to bring the Gold-Scaled Xyphia to dry land for combat. As an FMJ, Elma's positioning runs get even crazier with the wild long distance darting of Xyphias, and to make matters worse, hoss Stagger and healer and supporter Hope hit the deck during the set-up on shore. Looks like a W! E Yeah!? e 0 D Stagger 12/15/2015 11:57 AM Hey Dean, eventual Superboss atop Mount M'Gando? Not even sure you can trigger it at this point ... anyway, near the Weeping Whitewood was an awesome Archaelogical 4 find: Aura Boost VII! Shadow Running got a lot more feasible, and I'm taking no chances up here. Two key items now, and a vital Miranium site ... E Yeah♥ e 0 D Stagger 12/15/2015 12:07 PM You have to be kidding me ... the blasted Grand Cantors changed their behavior just enough to get w/in Elma's firing range when I was one more Primer from max TP. Very aggravating, but it takes three Shadowruns to get there, and I want three to look around with. Unfortunately, I have to eat and go to work. First thing when I get home ... sigh. E Yeah... e 0 D Stagger 12/15/2015 9:48 PM These Shadowruns are pretty brutal. I get a look at a mining frigate aviary though ... E Yeah♥ e 0 D Stagger 12/16/2015 9:02 AM I completed the M'Gando and Bestial Utopia Shadowruns in Cauldros to my satisfaction this morning, approaching 30% there, and now trying to get the last sliver of Affinity that Hope needs for one last subplot Mission, I'm hunting Caro. Squad Task and Basic Mission at once here - and I'm not the least bit upset that Dieter, the Epicure's scenario from Primordia has been recycled w/ Grex cousins. E Yeah! e 0 D Zachary 12/16/2015 9:13 AM Hey did you see the last DLC for SSB4? And the salty people along with it? E Yeah! e 0 Stagger 12/16/2015 1:29 PM @Zachary: Nah, not something I care about ... This could take a while. That thing is huge, but not strong enough to harm us much ... I'll have lunch and then fight.
