He removes Gadolt's memories because they made Fiora straight-up switch sides, and made Xord hasty in his actions. It has been a while since I played the game, so I could be mistaken, but it sounds like you're conflating "brainwashing" and "removing their memories." This means that he has to get fuel somehow and this is where the eating comes in. Xenoblade SPOILERS This may or may not be common knowledge, but a friend of mine and fellow xeno fan mentioned after prison island the possibility of nopon inside of faces. Other than that she's one of the most reliable characters to leave to the AI. Xord features the ability to transform into a bulky jet, similar to Metal Face. That's why he has no explainable motivation. I fought him at lv 27 and he's a joke.
Xord is not meant to exit his face. Still some helped a bit. Trying to fucking attack Xord when she should be healing. Log in sign up.

Kinda fucked up to think that a half dead father is a cannibal against his own true will just to survive in a problematic face model. Xord is as threatening as a little kitten when you're level 27 or higher.
Egil aimed at homs for a good reason and tried out a developed face that used living ether as fuel and was able to perform better than the others. :(, Most of the time its a bad idea to not play as Shulk since his AI is really terrible, but if you say Sharla is being useless give playing as her a try and see how that goes :). If you're really having trouble and possibly can't beat it, just grind enemies until you're 27-28 and the boss should be a pushover.

He speaks, still has memories and eats. Xord and High Entia Tomb comparison by @rage38682512. Well it is a prototype. And Jade Face's memories were wiped after Egil decided after Metal Faces death that not even the special Faces should have memories. The affinity is fine I think. the Soylent system in Xenogears is very similar except the people eating it don't know what they're eating XP, Xord ate homs to continously get that red homs supply for that Anti Monado ness. So why did he side with Egil? That got me thinking about Xord and his obsession, if you will, with food and being hungry. Heck, even with confirmed mind alterations on Gadolt, he still has his calm, collected approach to combat. But why the eating and how is he a "living" face? Close. r/Xenoblade_Chronicles: This community is for fans of the Xenoblade JRPG game series (Xenoblade Chronicles, Xenoblade Chronicles X and Xenoblade … Press J to jump to the feed. Ex: Air Slash from the side. If you treat them as separate concepts, I believe it makes sense: All the Mechon were likely brainwashed, but Egil's brainwashing probably amounted to, "You didn't really know anything before, Egil is right, so do as he says." Gadolt, similarly, had no choice. Then when attacking the little minions Xord stats attacking the entire fucking team with his... weapon, I get in a critical state, and guess what Sharla is doing? Press question mark to learn the rest of the keyboard shortcuts. And yea, control sharla and heal with her, never trust the AI. Sorry for the rant. If not, just whale on the little guys for a bit - remember that the fastest way to build your party gauge is to land positional arts and hit any burst affinities you get, so make sure your back slashes land from the back, air slashes and slit edges from the side. Stream Edge from the front. I think I read some where that if you leave one add up, he won't summon more adds throughout the fight. Like everyone else is saying though, make sure you build the chain meter/gauge by performing your arts from the correct directions. spoiler. Reyn even said "That Xord one 'n all" when they were discussing the brainwashing of Gadolt, and it was completely glossed over. If you're still having trouble, go back and do some side quests and grind. He had been brainwashed by Egil, due to Mumkhar's memories and tenuous loyalty leading to his demise and his believing that Fiora took control of Face Nemesis herself (unknowing that Meyneth was the one controlling Face Nemesis). r/Xenoblade_Chronicles: This community is for fans of the Xenoblade JRPG game series (Xenoblade Chronicles, Xenoblade Chronicles X and Xenoblade … Press J to jump to the feed.

The generic Faces neither kept personality not memories, except for Xord who kept his personality.
This suggests that he could have been reawakened like Gadolt was, but he was long gone by the time they realized that. Not only that, but her rifle overheats a bit with every art, and if it fully overheats, she has to use her talent art to cool it off. When you don't have the chain attack bar full, focus the entire party on a single add and get it down one by one, once all of them are dead, the bar will be full that's when you go on Xord and make him fall. He ran away when the "ether veins" turned from red (blood) to blue (normal) then went to feed on some Homs because he lost his Monado immunity. Mumkhar's motivations are well-explained. Press question mark to learn the rest of the keyboard shortcuts. 138. !1" every time I enter in a battle with him always kills me in 3 minutes or so. Maybe Xord went a little crazy upon learning about the Machina and developed hatred towards Zanza and the Bionis? I refill the Chain Attack bar with other enemies in the cave and then when it's full I fast travel to Xord's location. So yeah, I don't think Xord was really himself at all unlike Metal Face, which is why he has no explainable motivation. This means that he has to get fuel somehow and this is where the eating comes in. What does that mean, if he clearly wasn't brainwashed? That little shit who appears to be … Press J to jump to the feed. 4 or 5 are 4 lvls now though. Metal Face was allowed to keep both as part of being an extra poweful Face that submitted to Egil readily, but I don't think Egil gave the geneic Face people a choice.
Start the battle using Enchant, then build your talent gauge back up. Oh, and Sharla probably isn't healing as much because her arts are on cooldown. And unlike Fiora, he was not being directly controlled by any Mechon-sympathetic being. This community is for fans of the Xenoblade JRPG game series (Xenoblade Chronicles, Xenoblade Chronicles X and Xenoblade Chronicles 2). I just beat Xord, and I'm completely speechless.

I'm sure many of you know this, but Xord's true identity is revealed when speaking to Désirée in Colony 9, who says her father, Xord the Blacksmith, died in the Battle of Sword Valley, which is obviously very similar to Mumkhar's story. Fucking bitch. Shulk and Melia have way worse AI's than Sharla. Oh yeah I've leveled the arts a bit. My team is level 25. A work around that may help you also is to kill all the adds except for one. I'm getting really frustrated. So that leaves Xord. User account menu. Leave one add up. Note that all mass produced faces are mutes and straight up robots.
I can use the Shulk healing art however Xord is wrecking again a few seconds later and doesnt let me recharge faster. Right after the chain attack ends, use Shaker Edge and then Back Slash and Buster, and along with Reyn (who should use Wild Down about now) you should hopefully do enough damage to end the fight before he gets up again. Later Egil realized that, if he didn't wipe their memories, they could overcome the brainwashing, since their new 'values' would clash with their old ones.
Xord (English dub: /ˈzɔːrd/) is an antagonist in Xenoblade Chronicles. Please help. He just shoved people in and wiped their brains, after experimenting with Xord.

In this sense, Xord was most similar to Jade Face and was not fully autonomous. This literally just occurred to me, too. By using our Services or clicking I agree, you agree to our use of cookies.
