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

Nine Lives

Mission Prerequisites

  • Level: 20
  • Complete Chapter 5.
  • Required Members: Elma, Lin, and Gwin.

Mission Walkthrough

Mathias, one of Gwin’s Mediator friends, is in a jam—so much so that he has trouble telling you just what it is. This affinity mission is a requirement for Chapter 11.

Q&A Time!

Mathias

“Er, yeah, it’s actually more of a work thing, so…”

Answer

Leave: Walk away without forcing Mathias to talk about it.

Interrogate: Press Mathias to tell you his problem.

Q&A Time!

Mathias

“Yeah, well, it’s not like I’m shooting indigens in the face like you guys—”

Answer

Scold: Tell Mathias he should be proud of what he does.

Lecture: Insist that Mathias’s work is quite valuable.

New Heart-to-Heart Mission: Nine Lives

Help Gwin’s subordinate, Mathias, with his work.

Objective 1
Gather information about Aisha in the lower Administrative District.

The informant you’re looking for is in the hangar, close to where Doug hangs out.

Objective 2
Meet Mathias at the Integrated Production Plant in the Industrial District.
Objective 3
Follow Mathias to Primordia’s Cliffside Beach.
Objective 4
Defeat a shallows grex at Primordia’s Cliffside Beach.

Shallows Grex

Lv. 20: Boss

A single grex, even medium-sized and at level 20, should be a small matter for your party at your current level. Use whatever attacks you wish to.

Objective 5
Gather three units of Kiran catnip in Primordia.

Refer to the Collectibles section of the Data chapter for places where the catnip can be found.

Objective 6
Give the Kiran catnip to Mathias at Primordia’s Cliffside Beach.
Objective 7
Defeat the greedy forfex at Primordia’s Cliffside Beach.

Greedy Forfex

Lv. 21: Enemy

The forfex is roughly the same size as the grex and one level higher. Use the same tactics as before: Hit hard and fast.

Objective 8
Head to the Administrative District and check in on Mathias and Aisha.

Q&A Time!

Elma

“I look forward to the day I can run around in my real body again. It’s been so long.”

Answer

Agree: Smile and nod.

Worry: Wonder aloud if that day will ever come.

Art Learned: Ultraslash (Longsword)
