Xenoblade Chronicles Walkthrough

April 6, 2012 11:26AM PDT

Our Xenoblade Chronicles guide features a comprehensive walkthrough and additional info on the endless amount of optional content in the game.

Rebuilding Colony 6

Colony 6 was left in disarray after a visit from the Mechonis, so it's up to your team to return it to its former glory. Granted it's an optional venture, but attempting to complete the reconstruction has it's benefits:
- Additional side quests
- New merchants
- Chances to develop your affinity-tree
- Mine higher-level ether crystals (Colony 6, Ether Mine)

The tables below catalog the required items for each portion of the reconstruction (Housing, Commerce, Nature, and, Special). When you have the proper items, talk to Juju at Reconstruction HQ

Man, I really wish they finished this :(

There is an apparent mistake in Special Lever 2 for Regbuilding Colony 6. It says defeat Earth Nebula at Sap Cave. I was never able to find a Sap Cave, but I was able to defeat Caris Nebula at the brog lake just before you get to Nopon Arch.

Just looked at the map. Sap Cave is shown right next to the lake I mentioned. Now the only mystery is Earth Nebula listed on the page versus the Caris Nebulae I killed. They were on the path next to the lake, pond, or whatever it was.
