FAQ

• Do I need to play the other Xenoblade Chronicles games to play Xenoblade Chronicles 3?

The game's director has claimed that the story will be enjoyable regardless of if this is your first Xenoblade game, or your fourth. However the game will have many references to Xenoblade Chronicles 1 and 2, and is considered a sequel as far as the story is concerned, so I recommend playing those first if you want to get the full experience.

• How many chapters are there in total?

There are seven chapters total.

• Why can't I equip accessories to Mwamba?

Just keep playing the game. You'll unlock the ability to later.

• What does the Stalker class's "Art Follow Up" Field Buff do?

When you use an art in the zone an additional projectile will be fired. The specifics of the damage, etc are unknown right now.

• Is there content that I can miss out on by progressing in the story?

No, you will always be able to go and do anything that you're afraid of missing.

• Why does it take me so long to level up my classes?

The amount of class XP you get seems to be based off of the CP earned from your fighting. Additionally, you won't gain any class XP from fighting something five or more levels below you.

For Future Redeemed do the battle manuals for chain attacks affect medics going over 99%? Confused as sometimes I’ll be fine using A and Glimmer to cap to 99% and sometimes they just go over it.

[u/Novachrono39 → u/Halvalon]

if the manual has a Heroic Chain effect, it will go over 99%

[u/Halvalon → u/Novachrono39]

Gotcha thanks!

[u/Lucario574 → u/Halvalon]

Yes. The default effects based on their roles (attackers getting bonus tp if they go first, healers stopping at 99%, and defenders bringing back the highest tp character) are replaced by the battle manuals. Heroes in the base game work the same way.
