There isn't any direction. Just don't accept them, they clog up your mission list. You can just check the terminal every hour or whatever and see which ones you have the stuff for and complete them immediately.
The quest giver usually tells you if you ask them a second time. Sometimes the game forgets to let you know, which is dumb.
I know its in the guide at least:
I am a big fan of Lailah, Amdusias, and Urban (Kamikaze) Overdrives. Kamikaze, though not mentioned, deals damage to the frame as well but the increase in damage dealt is very large.
Lailah can chain Overdrives. I don't know if any other frame can do it without Augments. (Other than Inferno, but I don't like its stats.)
If you want a ranged Skell, Mastema has the best overdrive to that end.
Thanks everyone. Was finding it weird how I was being told to find things and not even being given so much as a clue on where to find them, which is all I really need. Just some kind of hint. Will do some serious questing tomorrow after work then now that I know this.
It would put you at the nearest landmark anyway. Saves are also landmark based. If you find yourself traveling more than a segment you probably want to search for landmarks closer to where you want to go.
That's not true. If you save anywhere that isn't a landmark, then load the save, you'll be exactly in the spot you saved in. Most RPGs let you load anywhere, including Xenoblade, so it's a pretty dumb omission.
Have fun! I'd never recommend anyone buy a console for one game, it's frankly pretty stupid - but I did it myself and I'm kinda okay with it. I expect to sometimes fire up Smash Bros and then never boot up the Wii U again, don't even give a fuck. XBX was awesome.
On your map click the top left corner map icon. On the right side, it will have NLA districts. Pick one of them then click on a hex that has the fast travel icon (orange).
Holiday season, working, social shit to do... and yet all I can think about is playing more of this game! I'm very tempted to take a day off from work so I can have some time to
mindlessly do quests and explore this amazing planet like I did the previous 30 hours
Hnnnnngggh, Noctilum is my favorite continent (and I haven't even discovered the "rest" of that place). The day music reminds me of an unused Sting/Peter Gabriel experimental track. So good.
Any GAF folks playing focused on multyplayer/playing in the same squad? NNID is Jockystar
Protip: if you unlock a heart to heart with a character, you'll need to dismiss said character and meet them at the specified location during the specified time period to activate it. Then, I think, they'll return to their normal recruit spot.
There's a google doc in the OPhere (spoiler warning) that's basically a content database, listing everything in the game to help you find it. It has arts, items, enemies, etc. Very useful.
You don't necessarily have to go to a BLADE camp to change the weather. If you have a Skell, just keep exiting it and using the Return to Skell option in the party menu. That's another option to take.
Did the celestial three subquest and many other green ones. Yeah, fetch quests my ass. Subquests plots are almost always WAY more than they look at first, they explore different themes and they're often linked to the story. I'm absolutely loving them.
So do those and don't pick the blue ones people, unless you want to do something else while you're out exploring, or unless when you check the terminal you notice you already have the materials needed to complete it (that's free affinity/money/exp), and/or there is a blue quest to accept a main/affinity quest.
Also, i was in Sylvalum at night during
a "spore storm", which then turned into one of the most amazing things i've ever seen in a videogame: that freaking aurora.
What are people's experiences like having not downloaded the DLC load packs?
This is the first game that has tipped me for extra memory for the WiiU, it has actually forced me before I can't fit the huge DLC packs onto the tiny 32GB WiiU memory. Now I'm waiting for a Y-Cable in the mail so I can use one of my pocket drives to download them.
I just don't know if I should start the game without the DLC packs. I'm kind of looking for an optimum experience for the game, but if the DLC packs are a small and negligible difference, I wouldn't mind starting now.
Any direct comparisons between DLC packs and no DLC packs?

Wait until it gets foggy. It was so hard to see in front of me.... then suddenly you flew.... and a giant worm monster silhoutte (when you target) is in front of you..... yea start running.
If I remember correctly, you get reward tickets (5 or 15?) when their scout level becomes *, which is after 3. When you release them, you will be awarded 1 blade medals per scout.
i can only afford a Light one... Wanted at least Medium, if not Heavy. Bah.
