Part of me wishes the opening clip was the whole video.

This is literally the first time you see Territorial Rotbart but the roles are reversed

I never noticed how funny some of the skill descriptions were. “No need to send your opponent a birthday card. Throw ‘em a surprise party,” is pretty funny.

“Tank” proceeds to one shot the arguably boat infuriating unique monster in the game

Sever would absolutely sneak behind an enemy and say, "Shh... nothing personal... kid"

Wish he could have the same attack and driver art animation that Malos uses.

Me, a waiter showing Pyra to her table: AEGIS, OVER HERE!

“Sever, you’re a tank class blade, but you’re so strong!” “I’m a tank class blade for the firepower kid.”

0:04 Hidden Leaf Village Secret Finger Jutsu: One Thousand Years of Death

At this point Tyranotitan should have its model be replaced with Sandbag from smash considering how many times we beat the crap out of him with busted builds lol.

You know why Sever is so deadly from behind, right? It's because he's a freakin' xenomorph from Alien.

This is it. Sever is my favourite blade in the entire game. I cannot explain how insanely fun this guy is to use, namely on Morag. The fact that he can just ignore any and all enemy defence means he's going to be hitting really hard constantly, meaning he's really good at drawing aggro even without any aggro drawing blade arts or skills. His biggest flaw is Heartless Kill being borderline useless in most circumstances and having no additional effect on Death Match or Deadly Divide, but they honestly just don't matter when he's consistently hitting like a train. I also adore his design and personality, and I really really love the design of his weapon. I really wish he was obtainable outside of NG+.

I wish all Torna blades and especially this guy had more screentime to see them interact with their former Drivers and have some character development

1-hit Rotbart..... We should be lucky Malos is a bad driver....cause Sever could of killed Rex by just staring at him...

When I got Server I had to replay the game to realize that Malos is actually your first Tank party member. It's interesting that Malos was a Tank when he had Sever given his destructive nature but now it makes more sense since I realize that Sever is a more Offensive Tank.

Being my favorite blade, the funniest thing about Sever is how much he clearly cares about his driver and fellow blades, but how hard he continues to try and hide it. I kinda wish we could have seen his characterization in the main story, but Mythra has to be a hard ass and shatter their core crystals... An insane amount of potential sent straight down the drain.

I like how they made Sever close friends with the other NG+ tank Knuckle Claw clone, Cressidus. Despite them never being shown working together in the main story. It's a small thing since most of the NG+ blades feel tacked-on rather than fully implemented like the DLC blades (I mean when it comes to party dialogue).

The localisation team must have known what they were doing when translating "Nullify Defense" and "Armour Piercing." They had plenty of time to fix or review it, but trolling us with such a minor detail must have been funny for them.

To quote a comment I saw on the 'net about Sever: "Looks like a Xenomorph, sounds like Metal Face."

You probably lost your affinity thread in that chain attack because Ken was toppled, and when your drivers and blades moved for the chain attack, they moved in such a way that a tentacle of his was between Rex and Sever or something. That's happened to me before too many times.

The skill trees are notorious for erroneous translations that the team could care less about unless the misunderstanding is NSFW

What the heck was that beginning lol Rex pooped a monkey and then killed it

Imagine his level two having his level one's effect and a crit modifier

Greatest intro to a blade guide in history

Sever is my favorite Torna blade in the game! The names of “Nullify Defense” & “Armor Piercing” are a bit odd for the effects they give, however, you do get each in the end, but nonetheless, he is a great blade overall

He seems to be better than I originally gave him credit for. I thought he was rather meh along with Cressidus. If I were to make him better, I would give Heartless Kill a 20% chance for an attack to become a surprise attack, but only get a 200% damage boost. Death Match would instead have 3 points added to the party gauge for each hits (stacks with critical hits and other party gauge boosts). I would also give him an extra 15% crit rate and an extra 20% block rate. P.s. I think I might go back and give my thoughts on other Blades and what I would do to improve them.

Love him. Great design, fun abilities, and just kinda cool above all else. I just kinda wish he was expanded upon in the story a little more. I mean, he's the blade of a god damn Aegis. Surely that must mean *something.* Oh well. All things considered, I still do like him a lot.

Brooooo that beginning LOL

My favourite blade in the game. Also the only blade used by an Aegis and non flesh-eating blade. I do wonder if Malos was the first one to awaken him; if so some of Sever's personality may be implied to stem from Malos.

Absolutely love the intro, best way to introduce someone to Sever lol.

I've never really used Sever, but his special names have been engraved in my mind from playing though chapter 1, and doing the chapter 3 Makhos fight :)

My boi sounds like mumkhar lol

There’s a “nothin’ personnel” joke in here somewhere

Sever and Fiora share a part of their level four animation, which is interesting since I'm pretty sure that them and Seven would function pretty similarly if they were in xcde or xc1 together. It's almost like.... no

I checked the Chinese version of Server's skills. So there's no mistake putting the description and the name. It's just that, in Chinese version, in Armor Piercing, "annul defense" is translated more like "annul the defense points", or "ignore the defense points". As for Nullify Defense, it's more like "the action of defense/blocking".

im commenting just because you asked good sir

ok that 1 shot territorial rotbart looks pretty fun, i’m gonna try that out when i do ng+

Man you are cranking these out! I gotta thank you for these guides, they’ve really been a big help for my playthroughs and given me a bigger appreciation for these game. Keep up the awesome work!

Out of the knuckle claw blades he’s definitely my favorite cause he’s just so damn strong with bypassing guard and defenses

I love how it seems like Sever concept is ninja assassin thing. Having fast specials with knife-tonfa thing and the surprise attack increase and a name like that, he is built to be one-shot kill guy, lol.

Yooo Enel is zooming through the rest of these guides at an awesome pace Keep it up you're poggers

Shulk: Rex why is there a Mechon on the team

"Doesn't have any multipliers" Technically true against enemies with 0% damage resistances/block rate, but against enemies with them, especially ones on the higher end like challenge CSKK (30% both) in which he functionally has a 43% Multiplicative increase, which is alluded to during the video.

I spit my drink to this intro. Then i was like "You got my attention."

He sounds cool when he gives his weapon to Malos during cut scenes

Malos clearly got first pick of the non-human torna blades.

Im still watching all Blade guide videos and I love how detailed you talk about the blades but that Intro was just amazing! :D (Sorry for bad english -> german!)

“Hey! Aegis over here!” Literally all I know for Sever when playing the game. I never got the chance to get him as a blade. Thanks for the build with Sever!

I like sever as a blade, even though I don’t use him often. The only thing that kinda stinks is his level 4 special “Deadly Divide” is honestly kinda weak, especially compared to the level 4 special he had before, ie with Malos: “Deadly Drive”. Really wish we got that instead.

I actually didn’t even know you could get him

“Probably the best of the torna blades we’ve covered so far” Ah, thanks for reminding everyone that we’re still waiting for a Patroka guide

That first clip honestly scared me lol

I was trying to get into speedrunning xenoblade 2 but i was having trouble doing the glitches and was wondering if you could make a overall guide to speed running the game

Enel, what would you think of a Xenoblade Chronicles fighting game? If Koei won't ever make Xenoblade Warriors, that would probably the next best way to make a XC spin off covering all 3 games. Given the nature of XC2, it would absolutely have to be a tag team fighter like Blazblue Cross Tag Battle. Or do you not like fighting games and would prefer the Xenoblade Warriors?

The rate you’re putting these out is insane

Me, a Malos fanboy, seeing the opening clip: It ends here!

Sever: a very casual Monke Killer

Thanks for these vids, very helpful, i just started playing this and i am lost as to which blades to use for the characters.

This just makes me wish even more that malos couldve been a dlc or ng+ blade

I started a bringer of chaos mode play through today. I was stuck with Sever for a lot longer than I would want to admit

Best boy

Sever was my first Torna blade, and I got him really early too. I think I used him right up until the Makhos fight and then started messing around with more blades.

Sever was the Blade I thought was super cool early on and I was hoping somehow I would get him in the party. It looked like that wasn't gonna happen so i was a bit disappointed. After learning you could get him in NG+, getting him was my top priority

I always was Sever as a "meh" Blade at best. This guide was pretty insightful

Hah! Funnily enough, I just reached NG+ today for the first time and the first Torna Blade I pulled was Sever.

What a great opening, pulling an "Omae Wa Mou Shindeiru" against a unique monster that was just resurrected.

gonna search up what UMs have under 1mil hp now so i can make super epic speedrun wr's

meow (you better meow back)

Sever really reminds me of Xeno Morph

so Sever "tanks" by killing the enemy before they can hit you?

Another enjoyable guide.

I cant stop giggling at him just one tapping rotbert

Territorial Rotbart gets a taste of his own medicine.

0:03 Karma

Opening clip: godzilla vs kong

The Xenomorph in Xenoblade

Battle Skill: always annuls guard Level 3 Special: also always annuls guard what

"Someone like Dagas" **literally posted video gushing about how there's literally no one like Dagas** Well okay then. Dissonance? Closer than you'd think 😪

I'm Japanese! The Japanese version of Sever's voice is so cool!

Enel vid uploaded? Day made

Is sever's level 1 really the fastest special? To me, it feels like mikhail's level 2 is the fastest. But then again idk what exactly qualifies the speed of a special.

"tank" Have three attack focused battle skills Ok monlith

he and Credeusseus are the only non torna new game + blades worth using while on that subject I'm disappointed they don't make Jin/Malos playable in any capacity not even as Torna rewards(I did see a rumor that Malos might come back in Xenoblade 3 in my opinion Jin should stay dead)

So you could say with that special strat, this rare blade really SEVERs the enemy's HP bar! .....I'm so sorry... Also I can't get over Sever's quote for the level 5 Heartless Kill node. Sending my enemy... a birthday card? Not my first thought but at least Malos and Sever cares about Rex's birthday : )

KZfaq deleted my comment when I tried to edit it, ahaha. Cool guide as always.

Sever is like Mumkhar reincarnated.

its worth to test the one shot damage by removing the cap

Poor Finch

I first read "how to use server" and was like "who the heck is this"

Ridley Scott is gonna be PISSED if he ever sees sever XD

But... How did he one-shot Rotbart if he has over 3 million HP?!

I just have one question. How the fuck that weapon is a clone of the knuckle claws.

I wish all Torna blades were stronger than this, I mean, Patroka is strong, but all the others are bottom B tier or C tier. That's sad considering they are very cool blades, especially Sever

Probably my absolute favorite blade of them all, love his design, personality, and playstyle. I have him on Nia, and being a knuckle clone, is he good on her?

FIIIIIIIIIINALLY

Beast of little words.....but can one shot gorillas

Patroka next please

Can someone explain to me how this guy disengage Pyra from Rex?

wait so enel, a double stacked fusion combo is stronger than a single fusion combo on a topple? because I've been wondering how you hit massive damage numbers in your challenge mode speedruns just on a break

Why does the speed of a special matter?
