Mission Walkthrough

Chausson has decided to go forth with the plan to form an alliance with the Wrothians. However, they are a fierce and proud race who usually use fighting to solve even diplomatic disputes. In other words, bring your highest-level party members and most powerful Skells—you’ll need them.

New Affinity Mission: A Challenger Approaches

Deliver the letter from Director General Chausson and join forces with the Wrothians.

Objective 1

Head to Oblivia’s Wrothian Stronghold.

If you’ve placed a probe at FrontierNav Site 315 in Oblivia, fast-travel there to get right to the action and request an audience with Ga Jiarg.

Objective 2

Achieve all objectives:

• Defeat Ga Buidhe.
• Defeat Zo Borri.
• Defeat Zo Fwor.

Zo Borri

Lv. 44: Enemy

Zo Fwor

Lv. 44: Enemy

Ga Buidhe

Lv. 46: Boss

Diplomacy has…succeeded? Since the Wrothians are a warrior race, however, you still have to fight and fight hard. If you’re not comparatively leveled, then go ahead and get in your Skells (this is a little easier if you lose the battle once) so you can do what damage you can.

Be sure to concentrate your four-on-one fire on Ga Buidhe’s backup; they are similar to the Wrothians you fought in Chapter 9. Stay on your feet and move to advantageous positions whenever possible, because it’s easy for them to run rings around you and get in a frontal attack.

The real problem, however, is Ga Buidhe, who has absolutely insane evasive abilities, especially if you’re below her in levels. Make sure you’re at least her level, and preferably a few levels above, if you want to have any hope of your attacks not whiffing. Ga Buidhe is also a speed demon and has lightning-fast flying kicks and projectile attacks at her disposal. She, too, fights like she did in Chapter 9, but she’s powered up for this encounter.

In the end, use your best armor and debuffs, exercise liberal use of Overdrive, and don’t be afraid to use the Skell flight module if you have one and snipe the Wrothians from afar to minimize damage.

Winning the battle gains you an audience with the prince, who asks for medicine in exchange for signing your treaty.

Objective 3

Achieve any objective:

• Obtain five med kits from the storage supply room in Sylvalum’s Hilal Stronghold.
• Obtain five med kits from Jeffrey in front of the restricted hangar in the Administrative District.

Objective 4

Talk to Ga Jiarg in Oblivia’s Wrothian Stronghold.

You can get medicine from either location. If you go to NLA, Jeffrey will need 100,000 credits to give you his medicine. Whichever you choose, bring them back to Ga Jiarg to forge the alliance and have the Six Stars arms manufacturer added to Armory R&D.
