r/XenobladeChroniclesX

I bought a Switch 2 for my daughter and picked up XCX on a whim, and it’s turned out to be one of my all time favorite games over the past couple of weeks. I’ve got ADHD, so I do a lot of game hopping, but this game has its hooks in me harder than any game has in YEARS. To me, it feels like a spiritual successor to Phantasy Star Online on the GameCube, which I played for hundreds of hours back in my early 20s. I’m curious, do you think I’ll enjoy the other Chronicles games? Is there anything else on the Switch/Switch 2 that feels like XCX that I can play once I’ve finished it here in a month or so?

I'm a bit out of it now as I haven't played the game in a long while. My character is level 70 and I'm using equipment with the highest power level that I have... and yet I'm being killed by enemies on level 40+

If I use >!that one mech!<, I can instawipe everything, but that's no fun.

Hi I am doing a dive into the Xeno games, I played gears and I am currently playing saga 1, however I am already starting to buy/be informed about Xenoblade, so much so I own already Xenoblade 1 DE and 2 (not torna yet), so useless to say this game always piqued my instead especially since the switch 2 edition was announced.

I do however know that many people find this upgrade to have really bad upscaling especially in handheld.

Now I like a smooth framerate, play mostly docked (around 80%) and prefer the switch 2 physical ,having their side not being fully red, which I think looks nicer on the shelf compared to switch 1 boxes.

Overall the switch 2 editions seems like it’s the most indicated for me based on all this, however I wanted to ask directly if in docked mode it is really not that noticeable the upscale jag, and if in handheld is really so bad.

Also extra question, I know you can remove the digital card of the upgrade from your switch 1 edition, but can you do the same for physical cartridges? Like if I buy the switch 2 cartridge can I just remove the upgrade if I don’t like it?

### We've got Enemy Randomizer!

- Replacing an enemy in the overworld with a random enemy elsewhere. This is balanced to be beatable, but expect much more potential difficulty than the standard game.

### We've got Character Randomizer!

- Replace one character throughout the entire game with another. The cutscenes are terrifying but gameplay works as you would expect.

Let me know what y'all think!

So I'm around level 27 now. I maxed out Duelist. I switched to commando since I read that dual guns is one of the busted ranged weapons.

However my DPS is pretty subpar. I switched to heavy grenada gear focusing on ranged damage. From what I gather, dual guns are decent on ranged stat as much as it's seemingly a potential build weapon.

My concern is, with the duelist, I can fight monsters above my level, but with the dual guns, fights beneath my level take too long. Should I just suck it up and switch back to longsword and AR to deal damage while leveling commando to FMJ?

NGL, I'm broke right now trying to buy gear and respeccing so I cannot easily refund my skill points back to my duelist weapon skills.

Also, are dual guns reliant on overdrive? I tried researching this, and it seems you build up TP with dual guns and switch to melee. I saw another video and he's just using dual guns and overdrive without switching to melee. I'm burnt out with melee at the moment since that was what I used in the duelist tree.

I was a day one buyer of the WiiU version as a big fan of mech games. Tried powering through the game to get to the mechs but, after about 25 hours I gave up. Do you get them any earlier in the Switch/Switch 2 versions?

Hey all. I have the definitive edition for my Switch 2. I really was looking forward to purchasing this game and playing it, and honestly the combat is so fun I am just having a blast. One thing I cannot grasp or understand is the mission system.

When Chapter 3 began, I went to the mission control board and accepted all the little missions, about 15 or so. I then fast traveled out to the field and started to knock them out one by one. But, when I finish a mission, I dont really see any rewards pop into my character or inventory. So, I fast traveled back to New LA and when I went back to themission board, I clicked the ones with a check mark and all it did was give it to me again. So, how do I know I completed something? Or did I turn them in incorrectly?

Thank you for any assistance!

Playing through the DE again and just got access to skells. I usually use either the Verus or the Amdusias, but I decided to try something different and go with the Mastema. But now I’m not so sure I can fall back on ‘ol reliable G-Buster or Phoenix. Any ideas for level 30 and 50 weaponry I can get my hands on that’ll be strong?
