In Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition, each Skell possesses unique characteristics, catering to various playstyles, from tanking and damage dealing to maximizing fuel efficiency. For players seeking a well-rounded machine capable of handling a variety of situations, the Lailah Queen Skell is an excellent choice. This guide will detail all the necessary materials and their locations to help you craft your very own Lailah Queen Skell.
After you successfully complete Chapter 12 of the main story, you will unlock access to seven level 60 Skell designs. These are upgraded versions of Skells previously available in the shop, and this includes the blueprint for the Lailah Queen Skell.
However, unlike purchasing pre-built Skells, crafting the Lailah Queen and its counterparts requires you to venture out and salvage the required materials yourself.
Here is a comprehensive list of every material needed to craft the Lailah Queen Skell, along with detailed instructions on how to obtain them:
Material | Amount | How to Obtain |
Rexoskell Sucker | 3 | These materials are dropped by an enemy called the Rexoskell. This enemy only appears in the time attack mission "Gone Berserk". To unlock the "Gone Berserk" time attack mission, you must first complete the quest "Definian Downfall". |
Crude Neilnail Mask | 2 | You can obtain this material by defeating Neilnail Albus and Neilnail Furvus. These enemies appear in the time attack mission "Twin Dolls of Mystery". This time attack mission becomes available after you complete Chapter 12 of the main story, so you should have access to it if you are looking to craft the Lailah Queen Skell. |
Xe-dom Silver Crest | 6 | These materials can only be obtained by defeating Silver Xe-doms in Sylvalum. Specifically, you should focus on finding Molybdenum Xe-doms and Bismuth Xe-doms as they patrol various areas within Sylvalum. Additionally, there is a Silver Xe-dom tyrant in Noctilum known as Go-rha, the Guardian Diety, which also drops this material. |
Ancient Armor | 1 | These materials have a chance to drop from any Xe-dom enemy across all of Mira. The open plains of Sylvalum are generally the easiest place to find wild Xe-doms, as they frequently patrol these areas. Keep in mind that wild Xe-doms will only become aggressive towards you if you are piloting a Skell; otherwise, they will ignore you. |
Advanced Crank | 4 | You need to defeat Seidr enemies to obtain Advanced Cranks. These enemies can be found in both Sylvalum and Cauldros. In Sylvalum, they tend to appear near Ganglion camps. In Cauldros, you can find them throughout the skies of the region. |
Xe-dom Hand | 5 | Similar to the Ancient Armor, Xe-dom Hands can be dropped by any Xe-dom enemy across all of Mira. Again, the open plains of Sylvalum are a reliable location to encounter these enemies. |
Ouroboros Crystal | 2 | These unique crystals can be found in Oblivia, but only by mining them through FrontierNav. To acquire them, you need to place mining probes on the following FN Sites: FN Site 308, FN Site 309, and FN Site 320. These probe locations will yield Ouroboros Crystals, which are necessary for crafting the Lailah Queen and other advanced Skells. |
Miranium | 10,000 | Miranium is a vital resource that you will passively mine as you explore Mira and complete quests by placing down mining probes across the various FrontierNav sites. To ensure you can hold the large amount of Miranium required for the Lailah Queen Skell, be sure that you have a sufficient number of storage probes placed down to increase your Miranium storage capacity. |
If you prefer to avoid extensive grinding for materials by defeating enemies, you have the option to purchase most of these materials (excluding those obtained through FrontierNav). You can do this at the material market. Opting for this method will cost you a total of 4,325 material tickets.
Once you have gathered all the necessary materials:
With your newly crafted Lailah Queen Skell, you'll have a versatile machine ready to tackle the diverse challenges and explore the vast world of Mira in Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition!
