Xenoblade Chronicles X Guide The Miran Unification Quest Affinity Missions
New in New LA
Mission Prerequisites
Mission Walkthrough
Celica and Rock have a problem—while both are welcome in New LA, Rock needs to prove himself useful to stay in the city—preferably by fighting the Ganglion. One problem with that, however: Rock is a pacifist. Celica decides to take matters into her own hands.
New Affinity Mission: New in New LA
Celica came up with an idea on how she and Rock could better contribute to New LA, then went into the wilderness. Follow her and ensure that she is safe.
Objective 1
Find information on Celica’s whereabouts in the Administrative District.
You can find the informant next to the Armory.
Objective 2
Head to BLADE Tower in the Administrative District and speak with Commander Vandham.
Objective 3
Head to the BLADE Barracks entrance in the Administrative District and talk to Rock.
As usual, Rock’s hard to miss—he’s sitting directly in front of the BLADE Barracks. Talk to him so he can beg you for help with Celica.
Objective 4
Search for Celica in Sylvalum’s Behemoth’s Shadows.
It’s easier to land a Skell near the rendezvous point shown on the mini-map and then use the Follow Ball—this cave’s easy to miss from high above.
Objective 5
Head into the deepest reaches of Sylvalum’s Behemoth’s Shadows.
This place is absolutely teeming with indigens with levels in the low 40s—try to have your party up to at least level 45 before trekking through here if you want to have the easiest time. You’ll hit one cutscene in the middle of your journey and trigger another one involving Celica when you reach your destination—as well as a boss battle. Expect to have to ditch your Skells partway in as well.
Objective 6
Defeat the dimnet xiphias at Sylvalum’s Behemoth’s Shadows.
Dimnet Xiphias
Lv. 44: Boss
If you have at least one Skell, this won’t be a tough battle—you’ve handled enemies of similar size and level on the way here. The slight challenge comes from the high mobility of the xiphias, combined with the fact that there are other indigens in this clearing, one of which is a tyrant.
Do your best to single out the xiphias and pound on it despite its movements. Then, once you beat it, high-tail it out of the clearing you’re in and fast-travel back to the cave’s entrance as soon as you’re in the clear to be able to fulfill the next objective.
Objective 7
Talk to Celica in Sylvalum’s Behemoth’s Shadows.
If you fast-traveled out, Celica should be just ahead, at the entrance.
Objective 8
Talk to Commander Vandham at BLADE Tower in the Administrative District.
