Looking for the best blades to use in Xenoblade Chronicles 2 is the best preparation for a battle to any monster, specially fighting a high level one. Getting rare blades is a little bit difficult as you can unlock most of the blades using a common core crystal, rare core crystal or the legendary core crystal. Chances of getting a rare blade from a common core crystal is very low, even the rare core crystal. We’ve tried opening 45 pieces of core crystal and luckily we got 3 rare blades from it.
We’ve suggest you to stock a pile of common core crystal and when you reach like 40 to 50, open it and there should be 2 to 3 rare blades you get from it.
Some of these rare blades can also be get using the main story like Pyra, Poppy alpha, Brighid and more…
To help you will your struggle, here are the complete list of Rare Blades where you can obtain from through main story, core crystal or etc.
