Quick Links
There are various types of quests inXenoblade Chronicles 3, with some branching into multiple sidequests. Like any other game, those that focus on the main story can easily skip over sidequests, but taking the time to do them doesn’t always hurt. As Noah and his group liberate Colonies from the Flame Clock, they’ll join forces with special allies called Heroes. Getting a Hero to join may also unlock a sidequest, such as “Teach’s Teachers.”
This sidequest is a series of tasks that may end up stretching a good duration ofXenoblade Chronicles 3’s campaign if players aren’t at the right level. One of the first two tasks of “Teach’s Teachers” is “Theoretical Knowledge.” It doesn’t require battling, but answering Taion’s questions correctly might be worth it.
