How To Complete Big Friendly Friend In Xenoblade Chronicles 3

Side quests doesn’t have to be boring and mundane, some of them can be fun and enjoyable. Some of them have neat little story bits that flesh out the world or side characters in a story. Big Friendly Friend is one of those quests.

In this quest you’ll need to farm a bunch of ingredients, and sometimes getting these ingredients can be a pain. Mostly they’re time consuming and annoying, so we won’t wait for that. What we’ll do is go to Aetia Region and get to this specific place in that map.

Around the water should be a bunch of items and ingredients. Don’t worry about the mobs you can just ignore them; our main goal is to pick up a certain item; Splendorshells.

They’re quite rare so if you don’t find anything just teleport away from the area and teleport back in the reset the items on the floor.

Another place that we can farm is here in the Fornis Region outside of Colony 30.

In this area there are also a lot of items and ingredients around but what we’re looking for are Stinger Piles. Not as rare as Splendorshells so you might want to try collecting these. Again, if you’ve taken all the items there then you can just jump out and jump back into the area to respawn the items.
