00:00Welcome to New Los Angeles, your home on the planet Mira.
00:13Your survival is imperative, so we've put together a quick guide to help new members
00:17of Blade thrive on this alien world.
00:21Whether you're in the city or the outskirts of Mira, it's important to explore.
00:27As you uncover more of the map, you'll be able to return to these places once you've
00:31unlocked Fast Travel.
00:36And while you're here, don't forget to place a probe.
00:39By placing a probe at Frontier Nav sites, you can passively collect resources, like
00:43Meranium.
00:46Keep an eye on how much Meranium you have.
00:48If you've reached your limit, you won't collect more, so spend it on upgrades.
00:54During your travels, pick up any items or resources you find along the way.
00:59Your inventory isn't restricted, so no need to worry about carrying too much.
01:05In New Los Angeles, talking to citizens or listening in on their conversations can unlock
01:10more missions.
01:13Accept missions as you go.
01:14You can have multiple active at a time, and it's good to multitask.
01:23Divisions are groups responsible for carrying out specific tasks for their squads.
01:28Joining a division is a great way to explore Mira.
01:33Say you're going to hunt monsters.
01:35Join the Harriers division first to get the most out of the work you are already setting
01:40out to do.
01:42Or if you're going around placing probes, you should join the Pathfinders.
01:46They're working to expand Blade's information network, so you can help them out while helping
01:50yourself.
01:51There are eight divisions you can join.
01:53Swap between them at any time in the Blade Barracks and pay attention to who you're working
01:57for.
01:58No matter which division you join, you're still entitled to daily rewards.
02:09When you encounter an enemy and draw your weapon, you'll begin attacking automatically.
02:14But arts are the true foundation of combat.
02:18Arts are more powerful than your standard attack, and they can have special effects,
02:22such as healing allies or debuffing foes.
02:26Arts are most effective when executed in a particular order.
02:30And when all else fails, stagger your enemy and go all out.
02:36Reduce the cooldown time on your arts using Quick Cooldown.
02:42But don't use up too much in case you're in real trouble later.
02:47And try not to button mash.
02:48Timing is key.
02:50If things aren't working out, you can always redistribute skill points for a nominal fee.
02:55You're never locked into your current build.
02:58Plus, try out different combinations of party members and vary them up to get the most out
03:04of your arts.
03:12And with that, you should be ready to explore Mira.
03:17There's still more to learn, but there's no better way to get acquainted with your new
03:20home planet than diving in.
03:25Keep at it, and one day, you could pilot your own skill.
03:29Join up with Blade in the Xenoblade Chronicles X Definitive Edition game, available now only
03:35on the Nintendo Switch system.
