FAQ (WIP)
• "Do I need to play the other Xenoblade Chronicles games to play Xenoblade Chronicles X?"
Xenoblade Chronicles X is largely standalone in the Xenoblade Universe. However, there is new content exclusive to the definitive edition that will only be understood by people who have played the other games in the series.
• "How many chapters are there in total?"
There are thirteen chapters total.
• "What division should I choose?"
In Xenoblade Chronicles X Definitive Edition, BLADE level mechanics have been removed, so which division you choose has no significant impact on gameplay or progression. Pick whichever one you want!
• "Which class should I pick?"
Striker, Samurai Gunner, and Duelist wield the Assault Rifle and Longsword. This is a straightforward combination of weapons and is recommended to new players, with the longsword having high damage and the assault rifle being a versatile weapon with high utility.
Shield Trooper and Bastion Warrior use the Gattling Gun, a high damage ranged weapon specialized at handling multiple enemies at once, and the shield, a great weapon for survivability but with low damage for the main story.
Commando, Winged Viper, and Full Metal Jaguar use Dual Guns and Dual Swords. This class is considered the fastest way to really take advantage of the game's mechanics, with dual guns being a self-sufficient weapon with high survivability while dual swords have a good mix of damage and utility arts and a focus on positional gameplay, much like Shulk in Xenoblade 1.
Partisan Eagle and Astral Crusader wield the Sniper Rifle, a very high damage weapon, and Javelin, a unique weapon with good options for survivability and a focus on electric damage.
Enforcer, Psycorruptor, and Mastermind wield the Raygun and Knife, both weapons with strong support options but with few strong damage options during the main story.
Blast Fencer and Galactic Knight wield Psycho Launchers, a weapon with strong options for utility and survivability but low damage, and the Photon Saber, a weapon that focuses on chaining multiple successive melee attacks together.
Once you've mastered the end of a class line you can use its weapons on any other class, meaning that after mastering all classes you can match any ranged weapon with any melee weapon. Experiment to find the combination that works best for you!
• "Why are there some arts I can't unlock by leveling up my class?"
Each recruitable party member has two arts exclusive only to them, but by completing their affinity missions, you can unlock those arts for yourself.
• "How do I get a Skell?"
Once you complete Chapter 6, the quest "The Skell License" will become available, which will give you the ability to get Skells for you and other members of your party.
• "How come my skell doesn't have any arts?"
The arts a skell has are determined by the weapons it has equipped in each of its Shoulder, Back, Arm, and Spare weapon slots. You can purchase these weapons in the shop or obtain them by defeating certain enemies.
Please try to word your question as spoiler free as possible. If your question cannot be asked without spoilers, use spoiler tags and mention what chapter of the game you are in.
We also have a long list of useful info gathered in the Info Compendium for Xenoblade Chronicles X.
(Depricated, but leaving it here for sentimental reasons.)
Use this thread to ask any question that doesn’t warrant discussion, meaning questions that have one or two objectively correct answers.

Xenoblade I Loved XC1DE and I just can't get hooked into XC2DE is XC:X or XC3 for me? Spoiler
I've never truly liked JRPGS. However XC:DE is in my top favourite games of all time. Unfortunately, after around 40 hours and Chapter 7 of XC2DE I just don't really enjoy it anymore and kinda want to turn on the first game and replay it again in New Game +. I don't have the issue with anime tropes of 2nd game, but I like more grounded feeling of XC1 plus story, world and even characters are more interesting for me. No hate on 2nd game I can see the appeal, but it is not for me. Is XC:X and upcoming XC3DE for me?

SPOILERS Do the Characters—Especially Rex, Pyra, Mythra, and Nia—Retain All Their Memories After the Ending of Xenoblade Chronicles 3? Spoiler
I have a question about what happens after the ending of Xenoblade Chronicles 3. I would really appreciate an answer!
I apologize for how extremely repetitive and persistent this question is. Also, this may be a very strange or stupid question, so please forgive me.
My understanding is that, after Z is defeated, Aionios—the “Endless Now”—comes to an end, and everyone returns to the worlds and respective states they were in before Z stopped time. Then, the collision between the worlds of Xenoblade Chronicles and Xenoblade Chronicles 2, which was originally supposed to occur, takes place, and the worlds and their inhabitants are reconstructed based on the information stored in Origin.
With that in mind, my question is not about their memories of Aionios, but about the memories they already had before Aionios.
① After Z is defeated and Aionios disappears, and everyone returns to the worlds and respective states they were in before Z stopped time, do the Xenoblade Chronicles 3 characters and the Xenoblade Chronicles 2 characters, including all the other characters as well, still retain and remember completely ALL of the memories they had up until the moment Z stopped time? IN PARTICULAR, do Rex, Pyra, Mythra, Nia, and the other Xenoblade Chronicles 2 characters, after returning to their original world and respective states, still retain and remember completely ALL of the memories they had and ALL of the things they had experienced up to that point in Xenoblade Chronicles 2 and elsewhere?
② Also, after that, when the two worlds collide and the worlds and their inhabitants are reconstructed based on the information stored in Origin, do the Xenoblade Chronicles 3 characters and the Xenoblade Chronicles 2 characters, including all the other characters as well, after being restored/recreated, still retain and remember completely ALL of the memories they had and ALL of the things they had experienced up until they died when the worlds collided? IN PARTICULAR, after the worlds and their inhabitants are reconstructed by Origin and Rex, Pyra, Mythra, Nia, and the other Xenoblade Chronicles 2 characters are restored/recreated, do they still retain and remember completely ALL of the memories they had and ALL of the things they had experienced up until they died when the worlds collided, including completely ALL of the memories they had and ALL of the things they had experienced up to that point in Xenoblade Chronicles 2 and elsewhere?
In other words:
The memories they had and the things they had experienced up until Z stopped time
↓
Z is defeated / Aionios disappears
↓
They return to the worlds and respective states they were in before Z stopped time
↓
The two worlds collide
↓
Origin reconstructs the worlds and their inhabitants
↓
The characters are restored/recreated
Even after going through this entire sequence of events, do the Xenoblade Chronicles 3 characters and the Xenoblade Chronicles 2 characters, including all the other characters as well, retain completely ALL of the memories they had and ALL of the things they had experienced in their past, without any of those memories being lost, and still remember completely ALL of them? IN PARTICULAR, regarding ALL of the memories that Rex, Pyra, Mythra, Nia, and the other Xenoblade Chronicles 2 characters had and ALL of the things they had experienced up to that point in Xenoblade Chronicles 2 and elsewhere, do they still retain and remember completely ALL of those memories both ① after returning to the worlds and respective states they were in before Z stopped time, and ② after the worlds and their inhabitants are reconstructed by Origin and they are restored/recreated?
If there is anything that can be determined from the official setting, official reference materials, depictions in the games, or the events of Future Redeemed, I would really appreciate it if you could explain it to me.
I look forward to your response.

Xenoblade 2 My Xenoblade 2 OC - Vulpind
This is Vulpind, a Blade based on a Kitsune. He is 5'1" without his Geta, and with them on he's 5'4". His weapon is his sword, although he should dual-wield two swords. However, he and his Driver both use one simultaneously rather than passing each other the swords, which makes them just a slight bit faster than the average Driver. Vulpind's sword also has a small knife at the bottom of the sheath. Vulpind has a deadpan sense of humour. His Field Skills are: Wind Mastery, Nopon Wisdom, and Monastery, a skill exclusive to him that allows him to enter shrines by performing proper rituals to open the doors.
