Like its predecessor, Xenoblade Chronicles 3 offers several difficulty modes that will allow you to experience the gameplay in different ways. For example, if you're playing on hard, you should boost the already substantial lifespan by dozens of hours, since you'll need to complete more quests to earn the experience needed to progress. But whatever happens, you can change difficulty at any time during your game, this guide should help you determine what to start with when starting the adventure.
easy way
If you want to plot the scenario in a straight line without worrying about the challenge. The easy mode offers shorter fights without any challenge, up to 2/3 levels below the boss you are facing . If you stumble against a boss pole in normal mode, changing the time of the fight to easy will allow you to avoid pex phases in the last third of the game. It may also be a good alternative if you want to shorten the laborious final dungeon and its waves of undrinkable mobs. Anyway, you can activate it without worries, it does not restrict the content of the game.
regular mode
The basic difficulty to go through the game in about 75 hours. Overall Xenoblade Chronicles 3 is not fundamentally complicated , as long as you master the ouroboros techniques and the combos, you should be able to overcome any boss in the game with too much trouble. On the other hand, the game sometimes takes the liberty of chaining key confrontations, with monsters that gain two levels after a cutscene. This is particularly the case for the end boss, who will surely ask you to farm a little if you want to overcome it on your first try (and be careful, the guy is quite long), but we will have the opportunity to come back to it in a future guide.
hard mode
If you want to ensure maximum time on the game, it is obviously on this option that you will have to turn, even if the risks of quickly getting tired of the gameplay of the game could be greater in this mode. As in Xenoblade Chronicles 2, some elite enemies and bosses are real life point bags and even by mastering all the subtleties of the gameplay, many clashes will happily exceed fifteen minutes. Don't plan on hitting a keeper until you have a good 2-3 levels above theirs.
