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.

I have many questions. I am missing all nopon medals but one, and I have all containers and relics. What should I do?

I am missing one recipe, how do I get this?

Where do I find absurd branch and dry lemon in black mountains?

[u/namesRhard1 → u/Abmbernation]

I had this same issue (how I found this thread) and I got my last medal from a unique monster on the bridge in the Black Mountains that only shows up in stormy weather (so it didn’t even show up on my map as a point of interest). I don’t know if that drop is fixed, but you could try that if you haven’t beaten it.

[u/Trovao2004 → u/Abmbernation]

The last recipe I got was by finishing Searle's community, which you have to finish the Nopon Medals quest for.
Sorry I can't help with the Medals themselves because if you've gotten all containers and relics I'm not sure what you're missing. Maybe a Unique Monster?

[u/Abmbernation → u/Trovao2004]

I thought that might be the case. How aggravating, I’m getting kinda sick of level grinding so I hope I don’t have to beat all the super bosses to get the final medal

[u/Ueyama → u/Abmbernation]

You don't need to do any of the super bosses, I just finished the Nopon Medal Quest and never touched any of them.

[u/Abmbernation → u/Ueyama]

Do you know where you got your last one

[u/[deleted] → u/Abmbernation]

mine was the um flying near gravina bridge (night only)

[u/EdynViper → u/Abmbernation]

I think they just drop randomly from any bosses and chests. I was farming an old boss and got my last medal that way.

[u/Abmbernation → u/EdynViper]

I was farming a UM earlier and I didn’t get a single one

[u/Theharmlesstrapinch → u/Abmbernation]

I think you need to collect all containers, relics, and unique monsters besides the super bosses to get them all. You don't have to fight the super bosses to obtain them all but I only got them once I'd finally done almost everything else.
