There's a lot more to talk about with optimal chain attacks. I was hitting those chain attack damage values 20 levels lower. There's a very easy way to take advantage of it.
They should make a Xenoblade Chronicles game where the combat was more like Devil May Cry mixed with the combat in both FF7 Remake Trilogy games, I like games with that type of combat, just because I think it feels good
But once you get it and it clicks, it's a blast. Even after hundreds of hours in XC2, I still like to play it simply because the combat is fun and allows for absurd damage numbers. Launching an enemy and then slamming them into the ground, watching a spray of loot erupt in their wake... It's so satisfying
@@OtterloopB I agree. It took three games but for some reason the combat in XC3 seems to click with me. It’s kind of addictive. As a casual who was just not able to get into the past titles, I’m really curious as to what was done differently here from the perspective of someone who beat the previous games. I definitely don’t feel like my understanding is comparable to an experienced player but for once I’m actually enjoying the mechanics in combat.
Jebus the combat is so convoluted... I'm like 5 hours in and it's fun but seeing this I'm not sure I'm ever going to understand how to really play correctly
@@tylerjohn2 lol...I loved 3 houses. I have like 200 hours in that game and I feel like I understood it... but engage feels complicated just for the sake of being complicated
For the weirdos saying they should have made it an action RPG, just go buy an action RPG! You can't throw a rock without hitting one nowadays. Believe it or not, there's tons of people who enjoy this more tactical style of gameplay, hence the good sales for the series.
@@codebreaker4087 The auto battle is an option. There are even arpgs that have stuff like that. It doesn't take away from the fact that the combat system is deep and allows a ton of tactical freedom
@@DjangoBruh yeah but if the games so easy an auto battler can do it I fail to see the need for engaging with the deeper aspects of the game... kinda convinced me to not buy the game with your defense of it XD
I have a friend who has spent 240 hours on this game since she liked it SMH but I'm a deltarune/undertale player so I've learned to target the healer...... never played the actual game tho...
Nice combat guide. But please do include a spoiler tag. I notice a few big spoilers for the later part of the game in this review. I understand that some mechanics are unlock later on like the ouroboros orders but I think a spoiler tag would be nice for those who don't want to be spoiled but need guidances as it is their first xeno game. But you accidentally reveal certain things before the ouroboros order part like the classes and a particular special key item for the plot, so please include a spoiler warning in the description. Otherwise nice round down of the mechanics of the game
He did put a spoiler annoucement with a countdown before the ouroboros order part. For all the rest he doesn't show any kind of spoiler, he even blurred the heroes classes.
@@Cowkill before the ouroboros order part there are spoilers, like for example (first of all SPOILER ALERT) The weapon that Lanz is wielding for his own class.
It's not. This guide is cleaner, the video edits show you each segment of the guide and the presenter explains it will. Each system is clearly marked and explained well.
"Time attcks when they make contact with the enemy" Shows clip where the character is somehow "landing hits" by attacking air well below the enemy's feet 🤦♀️
you should prep yourself for even the slightest spoilers if you're gonna have someone debrief you on combat in a game instead of learning it yourself, why are people complaining. not to mention spoiler alert was there
Nice work, and I was amazed by how good the environment looks in this game!

Be sure to share with the class. ;p
Nice refresher 💟

I haven’t seen a single video that explains the controls and what everything on the screen corresponds to. That’s the only part I’m confused about
God the combat system in these games is so complicated

Same lol
So im not the only one lol

After 20 hours it all feels very natural.
This is still overwhelming and the guy was soeaking faster than I can comprehend.
When should I switch characters?

Tactical? I've seen someone beat a boss without pressing a button.

@@DjangoBruhSo you could say tactics are also optional?

@@empatheticfrog2052nobody cares 💟
Guys, what Heroes have the smash and burst arts? (No problem with the spoilers tell me the names pls) Sorry for bad eng
I have a friend who has spent 240 hours on this game since she liked it SMH but I'm a deltarune/undertale player so I've learned to target the healer...... never played the actual game tho...
its just the far better star ocean
No xd
Arpg>>>,rpg
Complicated. Wish you could just share your standard rotation so we could remember and use without thinking about the mechanics behind it.
xc3 combat is kinda easy compared to xcx

Nah bruh this ain't enel
Dollar tree knock off 🤣

This is an excellent guide look forward to other guides related to this game. You explained the systems well.
Yeah you could tell by how you could at least somewhat understand what this guy was talking about.
"Time attcks when they make contact with the enemy"
Shows clip where the character is somehow "landing hits" by attacking air well below the enemy's feet 🤦♀️
just watch enel's combat guide
Would if I could listen that person for more than 2 minutes. So ungodly annoying to listen to.

not a good guide, it's like you're reading the manual. No specifics or on screen prompts
nah all this numbers and meters are give me a headach :(
SPOILER ALERT
It's not about Combat or anything other than Waifus
A combat system that plays itself. Groundbreaking, no?
Ratio
@@David-ro1sb You didn't watch the video did you?
@@David-ro1sb I work people who need to play this game for work.
They get wrecked play as if the combat works on its own without good micromanagement
Loser confirmed
Worst battle system in an RPG series.
Sales might say otherwise for most people. But hey, maybe a pass for you. It can be a complicated system for casual people.
No
@@dez87 Absolutely. The. Worst.
@@David-ro1sb no
lol, because you are bad at it?
