Honestly, Rex pulling aggro kind of fits with his character. He’s a brash, reckless, maybe a little cocky, but good hearted guy. I’m picturing it as Rex seeing aggro on Shulk or Nikol, and feeling like he needs to protect THEM, so he gets all loud and damaging to pull aggro and get his teeth kicked in instead of his friends. Then he gets some help up from A or Glimmer, and he’s right back to before, just swinging and brashly fighting. Then rinse and repeat.

@@TommySkywalker11 That style doesn't work well in FD. Armor veil isn't a good buff like attack buffs are. If anything they tried to make him like zeon from base game with bleed abuse from 1 being part of using his kit. It does not work though. They never should have made target lock considered a debuff. If that wasn't considered a debuff then shulk could draw aggro with monado rage and actually help the party a lot. As is now he is the worst party member in the game. Also who played shulk and only spammed monado armor? Why weren't you abusing monado eater and buster? Shulk was better as a damage dealer/support unit than going pure support even in his games.

The whole party was pretty strong for the most part (rip Nikol, he never stood a chance) and then there's Rex, who's just... nonsensical. The only downside is that he'll take aggro and die. That's it. Makes target lock actually useful though

I appriciate that the game just decided to make all the characters support and setup for Rex…and it makes absolute logical sense in lore and the plot.

I love that they went all in on making Rex absolutely insane; they just took the best from Pyra and Mythra and combined it into an absolute beast of a character. I also just don't bother with aggro reduction on him because Glimmer gets insane ally revivla speed with her skills, gems and even accessories if you want to bring those on her (but she really doesn't need the accessory for it).

Жыл бұрын

A tip for maxing out gems in the base game; I highly recommend limiting your gem selection to the ones you feel are absolutely necessary. This will greatly lower the amount of mats you need to grind. I went with Brimming Spirit, Steelcleaver, Accurate Grace, Pinpoint Weakness, Soothing Breath, Lifesaving Expertise, Swelling Blessing, Refined Blessing, Doublestrike, Empowered Combo, and Disperse Bloodlust. For party setup, I went used one break user (I used Yumsmith, but Ogre works just as well), and five Troubadours with the master arts Solid Stance, Myopic Screen, and Shield Bash. Everyone is equipped with Fraternal Badge, Shield Belt, and Carbon Gauntlets. For gems, they had Lifesaving Expertise, Soothing Breath, and Accurate Grace. The idea is to have an extremely long and drawn out fight that is very safe so you can get as many bursts as possible with little effort on your part. The ai will pretty much handle themselves, so you just need to focus on grabbing the drops. I apologize for the wall of text, but I hope this helps!

Fantastic video as usual! I eagerly anticipate your guide for Shulk since I'm also finding the tanks underwhelming lol

You know a guy is broken when his primary downside is that he's too damn good at his job. He always keeps going down because he keeps pulling aggro, and Nikol and Shulk have no hope in hell of keeping up. Additionally, I freaking love that Rex can pull of almost the entire Driver Combo by himself with Rolling Shot and Dual Blast, only needing some help for the finisher, since all characters do. Not only this, but you can launch enemies entirely for free. This absolutely trivializes regular enemy encounters, as long as you get proper positioning. And not only is the Rex/Glimmer combo one of the best (both from a thematic and gameplay perspective), but it's one of the few Unity setup upgrades that you're given FOR FREE. The game literally *told* me to use this man to break it. Don't mind if I do.

I knew Rex was a bit broken but I didn’t realize he was this broken.

For those who are actually doing the quests, the Accessory Shop gets an inventory upgrade that includes the Ceramic Belt. It is the upgraded form of the Silver Belt mentioned in this video. If you HAVE to buy an accessory, you might as well go with the best.

Your guides are the bomb man. I tried to kill Gotthard with the character setup I used for main story because it did well, but apparently it was mehmeh for bosses as I failed soon after Gotthard got enraged. Then I watched your videos how to setup each character, changed gems + accessories (not optimally, I don't have some of them yet) and adjusted Arts fusions. Went to try Gotthard again, and boom, dead. Tearing him down was much faster, and when he had over 30% HP left when I started a chain attack, got him launched during it and finished off with unity combo on Amazing grade (again, thanks to your tip to slap Strategy manual 3 on A). Time to grind some EXP and go on to next bosses. Thanks for these videos! Also, Double Spinning Edge goes brrrr

He's the strongest? On one hand its good to hear because I focused on only upgrading him because he's my favorite xenoblade character. On the other hand it's dissapointing because I was hoping the others would become as strong as him by the end and we'd have a team of badasses

I’ll be honest, kinda disappointed you didn’t close the game after the intro and open Xenoblade 2 and give a “I don’t know why you guys want a guide on this though, this game is like 6 years old” and then for the Shulk guide do the same thing except hovering over Definitive Edition before opening Xenoblade 2 again and showing blade Shulk in the land of challenge. Anyways, thank you for coming to my Ted Talk about how to backseat content creation.

Excellent as always, Enel! It's fascinating to know Disperse Bloodlust doesn't make that much of a difference - I've only got one gem slot unlocked, and had been wondering if DP would help with aggro. Turns out Rex is too overpowered, good for him! ETA: Also forgot to mention I didn't realize/missed different arts assigned together would create different fusions. I had noticed my Rex had Break, but it hadn't clicked add to why. So many great options with the new additions to combat in the DLC.

No main story spoilers, but I figured I would mention that it's possible to get a ceramic belt earlier in the game. I'm just putting it down below in case people would rather go into the game content completely blind I was able to buy the ceramic belt from the commissary, and I think I was somewhere between 30-45 (wide range, I know, but I don't remember specifically when I got it. Maybe chapter 3-ish? I haven't even finished the story yet). Getting better items from the shop was tied to a sidequest I believe. If I'm not mistaken, Peridot and Eow are the quest givers.

I love how A works, and while Rex is super fun, I like using her one-use Talent Art to say "fuck you" to all damage for like 20 seconds, for the entire team. She would be as busted as Rex if she got to do it more than once.

My Rex was already basically what you showed off here, but I didn't have my Chain Attacks set up like you do. I switched to that (after putting Break Brooches on Matthew and Shulk), and was able to beat Gotthard first try afterwards! Started the chain attack before he was enraged, and got him to just a sliver of health left. Very helpful guide. The only differences with my chain attacks is that I have Matthew with the Heroic Chain of adding 10 TP to everyone else, Nikol with the Heroic Chain of not ending the order when he goes past 100%, Shulk with the 15 TP to character with highest TP, Rex with gaining 150% TP when he finishes an order, and the 7th character has the CA Charge.

I didn't think they would make a character that was super broken in the DLC because we would all just focus on that character. Lo and behold, even from a casual perspective, Rex just outclasses everyone by a MILE! XC2 supremacy is real

Shulk one next Enel pls. Ty i love you if it wasn't for you i wouldn't finish XC1 and never go all the way through 1 2 and 3 so glad you teach me how to play so i don't drop that game 🥰

A bit late (took me a while to start Future Redeemed), but thanks for these guides as always. I'm happy to say that this guy actually didn't "help" me that much since because of your previous XC3 guides, I was already doing pretty much this with Rex. Feels good to know I was in the right track (contrary to when I first learned from you how much Sharla sucked in XC1).

It was really funny playing through Xenoblade 2, not understanding a god damn thing about the inner workings and optimization of the game, getting to the final boss and seeing "oh hey if I use Double Spinning Edge it recharges my arts so I'll spam that until I win." And now years later, playing the Xenoblade 3 DLC, getting to understand the way the combat works a little bit better and... doing the exact same thing.

Part of the setup i had going into a lot of the superbosses was the Heroic Chain accessory on Rex that made it so he added 50% to the damage ratio every time he takes part in a Chain Order, since i wanted to be using him each round anyway. Assuming you can keep getting him back (which isn't hard in FD's chain attacks), thats a free extra 250% damage ratio, which _adds up_

Thank you so much Enel. You are the best Xenoblade player in the entire multiverse. And handsome.

Sidebar I do like how Rex seems to have picked cooking because of Pyra (he’s the source for like half of the recipe is the player gets), I don’t really have any concrete connections to Mythra or Nia’s hobbies yet.

Is that Eunie I see behind Rex in the thumbnail?

12:03 You can get a 30% attack belt in the Colony 9 Shop after doing a specific side quest instead of 25% as shown here.

I cannot wait for the Shulk guide

Gotthard, the Ethereal is actually classed as a Superboss since the gravestone it leaves behind when killed is the special red ones which are given to Superbosses, unlike the standard Unique Monsters who leave behind the grey gravestones

I love how his skills repeatedly reference and make use of Pyra and Mythra's powers. It's like they're still with him in spirit even though they're physically separated.

Will you do a guide on all the characters?

Yeah I feel like all the tanks in xbc3 (even the base game) aren't very good at keeping aggro. Battle starts. Enemy: KILL GLIMMER Glimmer: I haven't done anything!

Glimmer has done something, though. Walked into battle as a Healer, the most dangerous of classes, since Healers can revive Rex.

I’m gonna come back to this later once I’ve hit endgame but are you gonna make a video showing where all the slot expansion kits are? Could really help thanks for all you do Enel!

He was throwing out way bigger damage numbers than anyone else when i got him. A few battles later i knew he was busted compared to everyone else. Glimmer's support aligning with his want to be a crit monster is a mean combo.

Hell of a glow up for Double Spinning Edge, that's for sure.

I noticed you never mentioned the chain attack accessory, are you planning on covering those in a specific chain attack video?

Just wondering about the Warped white Brooch. If his skill allows him to ignore 100% of enemy's defense stat, does the Brooch add to that? Can the defense % go into negative or something?

I'm not sure how it works in Xenoblade 3, but I seem to remember that attacks that ignored defense would not ignore defense if it was negative. I could be entirely wrong though

@@conorb.1901 So the brooch would only be worth it if it did indeed drop the defense below 0%? If you are right, then it sounds like it would do nothing unless defense could go into the negative?

@TheHowlHound it can go into negatives, I just didn't explain it very well (or at all). For example, between Ultimate Qigong and Taion's chain order, enemies will have -100 percentage points to their physical defense, in this example using Noah's chain order for defense nullifying wouldn't accomplish anything since the enemy already has defense that's below 0. So as far as I know, anything above 0 is treated as 0, while anything beloe remains the same

Thanks yo. I don't regret using all unlock kits and skill points immediately on Rex.

I feel using the gem that increases auto attack speed intervals is useful cause if he dies it lets him get his arts back faster upon resurrection and if double spining edge for whatever reason doesn't fully recharge then this mitigates the CD even further

It’s really handy that this growth screen lets you show off the characters arts, skills and stat boosts all on one screen

hey Enel I love your content, Im around half way through the story of the dlc and wanted to know is there enough ap in the game to max out every character? just to ease my mind

My Rex build: - Mercurii Rings - Thermo Headgear These accessories provide 100% Critical Rate so his attacks will always ignore the enemy defense. - Fiber Wraps - Tactics Manual, vol. 15 to increase the critical damage by 150% in Chain Attack. It causes an insane amount of damage to launched enemies when combined with Strategy Manual, vol. 8 (Shulk) and Tactics Manual, vol. 3 (Glimmer) in Chain Attack. What they did to Rex is unreal.

DOUBLE SPINNING EDGE!

Rex is best Boi since day. He’s always been my favorite Xenoblade main boy ❤

Just curious as you weren't at that point yet in the game when you made this, would any of the legendary rings be better accessories. Obviously the 40% attack is a direct upgrade but would the 100% up on fusion damage also be better than say, the wiped brooch?
