T-elos is a blade that's expected to be maxed out in New Game Plus, or a second New Game Plus, assuming that you don't use a turbo controller to spam jumps.

I used the Urayan Cosmetic Shop trick. Can't be worse than spamming Noponcho.

I've only maxed out Aegeon's so far, it's mostly finishing off the more annoying prerequisites, and I should probably do it sooner or later.

ED: No wait, I've done Poppi QT's as well.

Off the top of my head, I've nearly finished Dahlia's as well, just need to spam Icecraft.

The Urayan Cosmetics has a stall that you can jump on and a short roof. This combination shortens the jumping animation and you jump 3 times as fast.

Wish I knew this when I idled for jumps to get T-elos filled up the second time. I actually bought a turbo controller for this.

I filled out T-elos's jumping requirement automatically once I got her.

I guess I jumped around a lot during the story.

I watched a playthrough of Torna. Here's some thoughts:

I love Lora, Jin, and Addam. Lora is my favorite Xenoblade protagonist, and I think Addam barely edges out on the Zekenator. In fact, I would love a harem ending for Lora. She's so charming.

I wish Haze, Hugo, and Gort have more time to shine. For a main Driver Hugo doesn't have nearly as much impact as the Flamebringer. Gort almost have a good rivalry with Lora (probably the only antagonist to do so) if not for his limited time.

I also warmed up to Mythra in this game, but not the main game though.

Poor Aegaeon is still a second fiddle to Brighid.

But Lora's not the main character of Torna, Jin and Mythra are.

Lora's closer to the viewpoint character, albeit a better one than Rex because her special power is singular, justified and not handed out for free.

I still wish we were given a fourth team that had the Compassion elements...

Maybe even a Nopon...

Yeah, the game is lacking in playable Nopon.

btw the best reveal in the main game is that the nopon's cutesy voices are deliberately faked

Good team. My current team is like:

Team Flamebringer: Brighid/Patroka/Aegaeon (Player), Brighid/Patroka/Mikhail (AI).

Team Chaosbringer: Pandoria/T-Elos/Zenobia (Player), Herald/KOS-MOS/T-elos (AI).

Team Nia: Sheba/Adenine/Nim.

I mostly use Aegaeon for that Pentagon Chip though.

Adenine's boost stacks with Patroka's.

I'm at the point where I can max out Chain Attack damage with 2-3 orbs. T-elos is quite a thing.

Adenine's better off used on Zeke or Nia anyway.

Kinda wish we had the option to have Rex or Zeke function as Blades. I mean, I'd probably never use that option, but still.

Man, speaking to the armu farmer in Torigoth is kinda depressing after you've beaten Arduran.

With 3 Burst Symbols, I only need 1 orb to cap Chain Attack.

I guess you hate Rex so much that you're willing to give up Pneuma's special powers, aren't you? She's the perfect finisher for a joint fusion-chain attack.

Pneuma's Chain Attacks are rather underwhelming compared to Brighid, Poppi III, and KOS-MOS.

Really? I found that Pneuma's power was absolutely game-breaking and was more than capable of pushing my chain attack damage beyond the 1000% mark, with the help of blades like Elma. And that isn't even using Poppi QT Pi, as this was during the "Farm SP for Vandham" phase.
