Blades need to be engaged for their side quests to show up.
Don't do Ursula's. You need to grind like 100 merc missions for that, who the hell knows why

Tantal is the first time I wished this game had vehicles of some sort. Way too big with too few checkpoints unless i got unlucky and missed a bunch of them. It's cavernous. Would be nice to fly around in a mech there :francis:

Game is massive and never stops doling out new gameplay mechanics and features way into the game too.

Just to give perspective on the size I beat the game at like 65 hours barely doing side quests. I'm going through them now and I'll prolly take more time to finish all this shyt than it took me to do the main story.

Can you keep playing it after you finish the main story?

Yeah, that's the case. I don't see any other blade doing what she did in that moment.

I was playing for quite a bit earlier. I had to pause for a bit and just explore the depth of this place. didn't seem as big as Uraya at first, but... It looks like it is. I was trying to read some text on a barrel, but Poppi's noppon wisdom or whatever it's called is one level short. So I explored the bunker beside it. :mjlol: down there was some ridiculous shyt. Beasts popping out of nowhere huge spiders, and some unique reptile looking beast attacking me on the other side of a wall. LOL I had to run because I couldn't hit him. Ended up escaping the bunker on the other exit only to walk out and see a bunch of lvl 80s. :mjgrin: like one of those escape movies with an ending where the good guys still end up losing in the end.

Edit: I was also fighting some driver on the high level area where the pipes were, and the game made started making some weird ass sound. I then notice his blade was gone, and he stopped moving. I'm assuming his blade fell off the ledge and he just gave up. So I knocked him off the ledge and the noise stopped. shyt was mad spooky.

Oh you talking about that wasteland area? If so there's a Unique monster in the basement there. One of them lizard guys, named Judiciator or something like that.

I beat it at like 61. I will say I do not think that was the intended level. I imagine you should be around 70. I just liked trying to break the bosses with smart elemental combo play and using chain attacks properly so I put myself through a few tries. I'd usually rather do that than grind. Hopefully no one takes the level I was at as spoilery.
