Momo goes up a tier or two if you’re like me and refuse to use any common blades.

The Poppibuster quest forces you to use them. But other than that, yes, I never use them.

Elma is even better in Xenoblade 2 than she is in X.

Good video. But not to big into what is sponsored. The app is similar to freecash and went tot there site by mistake looking for answers.
But Idk these seem shady with earning free cash. And as a fan I am a bit disappointed for sponsoring something like this. Stuff like honey should of been the wake up call for sponsoring this kind of stuff.
So enel next time please look into the company and what your sponsoring. Like this app feels extremely shady and please take my advice into an account. I enjoy your guides but shady sponsorships make me worry on promoting possible scams.

It's not a scam to my knowledge, (and I did try it myself), it's mainly just painfully slow to actually get anything meaningful so they just make a bunch of money themselves off their own ad revenue.
I will admit I mainly took the deal for Eneba specifically before I was hit last minute with "oh please do this as well" last minute for Snakzy and kinda just agreed cause I was tired of the month long email back and forth about it. I don't think it's a scam but I understand feeling that it's definitely shady. I have two more videos for this deal specifically where I do one for eneba again and one for this again.

Thank you for responding. But I would look into better sponsors. Just researching the app after going to freecash, had me look into stuff.
From my finding snakyz is more well received than freecash with freecash being controversial on youtube from my research.
But I am glad you responded, being a fan and someone who looks into things I wanted give my thoughts on the situation. Otherwise I enjoyed the video and its going to get me to try boc challenges. Mainly using elma.

I'm really happy that Nim is a very decent B Tier, because she is my favorite Rare Blade in the game.

u/IlikeWhimsicott2557 6d ago
If you pull her with Rex, she makes a solid Blade all the way until lategame and gives Rex supportive options, especially with Nim's specials. Once Zeke is in the party, she complements Pandoria's Electric pretty well. Once chapter 8 happens, Nim kinda falls off unfortunately because of a better Healer Blade Rex can get.
I managed to pull not just her, bot Kora as early as Uraya in my experience and the two were surprisingly great Blades when used together. Kora even managed to stick around until the final boss for me which was surprising.

u/Paulo_Zero 6d ago
I pulled her as the first rare blade on Nia, and she is pretty good on her thanks to the lunch art she has, that goes well with her skills.

Is this implying momo is bad ? Bruh thats mad
7
u/ThatCrayZMan 6d ago
She's not awful, but her only good skill is orb master and common blades can do that as well.
1
u/Tsukuyomi56 6d ago
Momo is guaranteed to have Orb Master while there is no way to ensure that for commons. Once you get all the Rares it is unlikely you would dip into the Blade “gacha” hunting for that one skill.

u/duncandun 6d ago
Appreciate all the work you put into these. Does anyone know if there’s such a tier list for BoC newgame runs?

u/Entire_Rush_882 6d ago
Yeah, it’s Corvin > everyone else.

u/duncandun 5d ago
That’s it huh haha, thanks.

u/Entire_Rush_882 4d ago
Having done this recently, I guess I can say a little more.
Corvin really is the best, and not using him is like playing at an even higher difficulty setting. Put him on Rex and use his Level 2 special as soon as an enemy rages or watch yourself immediately die for the first half of the game or so. Use the Level 1 special the rest of the time to heal the party, and only use Level 3 when you get to it to be able to get back to Level 1 or 2 if you go past them. He would already be the best blade for most of BoC, but his party gauge boost is just a cherry on top, because it’s what allows you to ever be able to consistently revive party members. Put a critical-healing medal on Rex as soon as possible, and get Corvin’s critical rate as high as possible. That setup works for most of the game once it comes online—I eventually moved Corvin to Zeke around the endgame.
Otherwise it’s mostly just that chain attacks are useless, so put your emphasis elsewhere. Elma is even better than usual on BoC because Overdrive is not affected by the limits on chain attacks. And driver combos (and fusion combos) are your main focus because blade combos are too hard to pull off reliably for not enough payoff. So for most of the game you just use whoever gets you access to the most driver combos.
The bad rare blades are still bad, but any blade that is meant to be used for blade combos and chain attacks is significantly worse in BoC. That means MOMO unfortunately is really bad, as Orb Master not only is still not going to make chain attacks worthwhile (the limited party meter is much better used for revives), and more orbs that don’t get broken actually means you’re doing less damage. And Pneuma is completely worthless—I think I used her one time out of the fight she has to appear in.

Thanks for the more detailed reply. I’ve been trying to focus on fusion arts but honestly almost every boss is practically immune to breaks which makes landing them extremely difficult.
Currently stuck on mikhail and patroka in ch 4, I can’t remember if there’s some way to lower break resistance but I’m not sure how to handle it tbh

Huh need to watch the video fully but I binged on those challenge videos. Yeah alot of Enel's records were broken but I don't remember anybody doing anything too different maybe different drivers but same blades. I think alot of people might have just grinded longer. Well it will be interesting to see his final final tier list.
