Your friendly walkthrough for Xenoblade Chronicles 2 Chapter 1, covering Argentum's side quests like Cargo Escort, Hide and Seek, and Better Late Than Never.

Alright, welcome to Xenoblade Chronicles 2! Chapter 1 kicks off in the bustling marketplace of Argentum. This place is huge, and while the main story is your priority, there are a few side quests you can tackle right away to get a feel for the game and snag some early rewards. Think of these as your warm-up laps!

We'll go through the available side quests here, but remember, the main story is always there waiting for you. Don't feel pressured to do everything at once, but these are good ones to get out of the way early.

Argentum Side Quests

Here are the side quests you can find in Argentum:

Cargo Escort

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    First things first, chat with Ysolde. She's hanging out near the Central Exchange.
  2. 2
    She'll send you to the Goldmouth Return Port in Argentum. Your job is to defend the cargo from some Trent Krabbles. Just fight 'em off!
  3. 3
    More Krabbles, and this time a Petra Crustip, show up at the same spot. Keep defending the cargo!
  4. 4
    Once the coast is clear, head back to Ysolde at the Central Exchange to report in.

Tips: This quest is pretty straightforward, but don't get too comfortable! A lot of enemies can swarm you quickly, so stay alert.

Hide and Seek

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Find Aft. He's chilling in the Bower Lounge.
  2. 2
    He'll ask you to track down a few folks: Snikisniki and Talulu.
  3. 3
    Aft himself is on top of some crates behind Honeycomb Sweets.
  4. 4
    Snikisniki is hiding behind crates near the Central Exchange.
  5. 5
    Talulu is inside a barrel just outside the Maelstrom.
  6. 6
    Once you've found everyone, report back to Aft in the Bower Lounge.

Tips: The descriptions for finding them are pretty specific, so keep an eye out for those landmarks!

Better Late Than Never

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Talk to Gegebi. He's on the deck outside the Bower Lounge.
  2. 2
    He needs you to find Limuli somewhere in Argentum.
  3. 3
    Head over to Honeycomb Sweets to grab a Cinnapon Roll.
  4. 4
    Deliver that roll to Limuli, who you'll find on the Salvage Deck in Argentum.
  5. 5
    After that, you'll need to fight a Sly Krabble at the Salvage Deck to get Limuli's Keepsake Necklace.
  6. 6
    Finally, return to Gegebi at the Bower Lounge to wrap things up.

Tips: Limuli is pretty easy to find – just head down to the Salvage Deck, they're right below where you start the quest. Don't worry about using the Cinnapon Roll; it's just a fetch item here.

These quests should give you a nice little boost as you get started. Remember to explore Argentum a bit, but don't get too lost – the main story awaits!
