Xenoblade Chronicles X Guide › The Miran Unification Quest › Affinity Missions

Blitzkrieg

Mission Prerequisites

  • Level: 33.
  • Affinity: Phog (3 Hearts), Frye (3 Hearts).
  • Complete Chapter 8.
  • Complete the “A Great Divide” affinity mission.
  • Complete the “A Foggy Dilemma” affinity mission.
  • Complete the “Bottoms Up” affinity mission.
  • Restricted Members: Phog and Fry.

Mission Walkthrough

NLA has acquired intelligence that the Ganglion are about to try an attack on the city. Defend the city!

Phog or Frye?

This mission has two completely different battle scenarios, depending on whom you choose to accompany at the mission’s start. Thus, choosing to defend with Phog is covered first, then choosing to strike out with Frye.

New Affinity Mission: Blitzkrieg (Phog)

A large-scale military maneuver is about to begin. Together with Phog, you’ll be defending New LA.

Q&A Time!

Phog

“Stay safe, Frye.”

Answer

Query: Ask Phog if he is worried about the mission.

Sympathize: Tell Phog you’re sorry he and Frye still are not on good terms.

Objective 1
Talk to Walter on the East Gate Plain in Primordia and begin the defense.

Q&A Time!

Walter

“So, then, all ready to begin?”

Answer

Affirm: Say that you were born ready.

Shake Head: Indicate that you need time to prepare.

Objective 2
Hold off the enemy onslaught on the East Gate Plain in Primordia for three minutes.

You fight groups of Marnuck grunts that will be below your level no matter what. Dispatch them however you see fit, but beware their larger numbers as you do so.

Q&A Time!

Phog

“I’m thankful for all the work we’ve done together.”

Answer

Downplay: Tell Phog that he got where he is through his own efforts.

Brag: Remind Phog how awesome your advice is.

Objective 3
Head to Primordia’s Bedrock Hold and rescue Frye.
Objective 4
Hold off the enemy onslaught at Primordia’s Bedrock Hold for five minutes.

If at all possible, bring your Skells. They mean the difference between an easy time or a somewhat tough fight. You fight the same Marnuck mooks as before, but this time they have a huge Galdr unit with them as well as a couple of Qmoevas, and you have to hold out for five minutes instead of three.

Skells can utterly rock this battlefield. However, if you’re on the ground, order your party members to concentrate fire on everyone they come across.

Q&A Time!

Phog

“Guess I should thank you, too.”

Answer

Nod: Say that you just did what any friend would do.

Mooch: Tell Frye that he can pay you back with drinks.

New Affinity Mission: Blitzkrieg (Frye)

A large-scale military maneuver is about to begin. Together with Frye, you launch an assault on Primordia’s Bedrock Hold.

Q&A Time!

Frye

“You’ve gone on missions with Phog before, right? How, uh…how was he?”

Answer

Praise: Tell Frye that Phog performed excellently.

Chuckle: Tell Frye that Phog is…unique, but that it is part of his charm.

Criticize: Bluntly tell Frye that Phog was difficult to work with.

Q&A Time!

Frye

“I never have any clue what he’s thinking.”

Answer

Argue: Tell Frye what Phog told you about their father.

Listen: Hear Frye out.

Objective 1
Achieve all objectives:
  • Defeat the menacing Marnuck in Primordia’s Bedrock Hold.
  • Defeat the Marnuck gunner in Primordia’s Bedrock Hold.
  • Defeat the guard Qmoeva in Primordia’s Bedrock Hold.

Menacing Marnuck

Lv. 34: Enemy

Marnuck Gunner

Lv. 35: Enemy

Guard Qmoeva

Lv. 36: Enemy

This is one of those missions that’s laughably easy with Skells and rather hard without. So get some Skells, roll over to the fortress, eyeball the Qmoeva, then destroy it and the two grunts beside it.

Air support with levels in the 40s may show up while you’re dispatching your quarry, but they’re not required hunting, so if you’re afraid for your Skells, either concentrate and take them out quickly before going for your real targets, or simply make sure the job is done, then run like heck.

Q&A Time!

Frye

“You ready to party?”

Answer

Accept: Tell Frye that you’re up for anything.

Decline: Say that you’re worried about the others.

Objective 2
Head to the East Gate Plain in Primordia and rescue Phog.

Q&A Time!

Frye

“You ready? We’re not letting this city fall!”

Answer

Nod: Confirm that you’re ready to go.

Shake your head: Say that you need time to prepare.

Objective 3
Hold off the enemy onslaught on the East Gate Plain in Primordia for three minutes.

Once again, Skells make an absolute world of difference. You’re fighting massive Galdrs along with Marnuck mooks. They come two at a time, so concentrate fire on individual enemies, especially if you’re on the ground.

Hold out for three minutes and you’re in the clear.

Q&A Time!

Frye

“You’re coming too, right?”

Answer

Accept: Say that you wouldn’t miss it.

Decline: Give the brothers some time to catch up.

Arts Learned: Crisis Zone (Dual Sword), Bullet Twister (Gatling Gun)
