Haha, a few strokes of luck today. The Xenoblade wiki needs a lot of its facts cross-checked, because the stub for Hode Plank only mentions Scout Hodes, which are comparatively rare, but the Colony 6 page mentions Hyle Hodes, which are somewhat more common, to get that part. I also had the good fortune for it to actually rain in-game today, and so caught my light rain element. Between those two, i was able to make significant advancements in Colony 6, and have found several pockets of enemies that should be good for training.


You don't have to wait for it to rain. Just keep changing the time and you'll get rain pretty fast.

I tried that, after setting time ahead for like two in-game weeks and getting squat, i figured i would just wait.

Try just moving it forward a few hours at a time. It WILL change weather, if it's supposed to rain.

I finally got an (online) buddy to buy Xenoblade. This makes me feel awesome.
He's really enjoying it (enough to call one of the best JRPGs ever made, despite only getting to Prison Island thus far), but has had problems with the camera. I told him to use the Classic Controller, but he claims that it's still annoying for him. *shrug*


I had some issues with the camera as well, especially in boss battles that was really annoying. But the game was great overall.

Did you use the CCPro? If you did there should be 0 camera problems.

nah, I used the remote with Nunchuck. It is not that big of a deal, it was an additional handicap in boss fights to make it a bit more challenging

Well, it's hardly an issue if you haven't got the right equipment :P

It is the right equipment thats what Nintendo provided when I bought the console. If The other joystick would be right equipment, they should bundled it with the game.

btw. What is the difference?

It just allows you to use the second analogue stick to rotate the camera freely at any time, but you can't move and use Arts at the same time. Not that you'd want to anyway...

You must've had terrible luck lol. But you should only change it a few hours back and forth. Waiting for the weather all the time would be incredibly tedious.

Fingers crossed that the Light Rain Element for Colony 6 will be the last time i'll have to worry about it.

Until you have the Inferno Element and the Bolt Element, of course. 

But those aren't weather-dependant. I don't think.

Right. Lots of them want stuff from the Nebulae, and the weather does adjust their appearance rate.
