![]() Not only was this a welcome return to areas that I hadn’t seen in dozens of hours, but it also surprised me by just how many secrets and special locations can be found with a stronger party and wider variety of Field Skills. What the DLC quests do succeed at, however, is getting players to revisit and explore more obscure areas from the main campaign. If you’re expecting extra-long, story-driven quests placed squarely among some of the game’s best, you’ll likely be disappointed. Each of the five quests unlock at different chapters of the game (a fact that unfortunately kept me from playing the final DLC quest available at chapter 10) and vary greatly in quality. Just released on January 18th, this pack offered the first set of new DLC side quests. ![]() Pack 2A is where the real meat of the DLC finally comes into play. The legendary and rare core crystals are nice bonuses, but both can be farmed using one of several late-game strategies. The Upgrade Parts for Poppi pack is a major time saver for those who aren’t the biggest fans of Tiger! Tiger!, though, and having Pyra and Nia’s favorite items is sure to help players early on. The extreme rarity of overdrive protocols (which allows players to move blades from one driver to another) are easily the highlight of this pack. This pack boasts the Driver’s Essentials Set (10 rare core crystals, one legendary core crystal, and three overdrive protocols), Upgrade Parts for Poppi (30,000 ether crystals), and five of Pyra and Nia’s favorite items each. The second “Support Items for Your Journey” pack came out on December 21st and, compared to the first, is much more viable. The one timeless part of this drop are the 10 silver cylinders since one can generally only accrue these pricey items by buying them in a shop. ![]() This pack is obviously aimed at new players, as suddenly accruing 50,000G and 5 common core crystals is massively more impactful than getting them halfway through the game when most have likely already wracked up a couple hundred thousand G and more common crystals than they know what to do with. ![]() The first pack, “Support Items for Your Journey,” dropped right on launch day and includes 50,000G, 3 cream orange paratha, 10 silver cylinders and 5 common core crystals. ![]()
