Hello, [ST:playername ]. Seems you're already[ST:n ]well on your way to making a name for yourself.[ST:wait ] |
| 2 |
|
qev097901_MSG0002 |
I've been hearing stories around BLADE headquarters.[ST:n ]One day you're outgunning hostile xenos, the next[ST:n ]you're adopting strange walking delicacies.[ST:wait ] |
| 3 |
|
qev097901_MSG0003 |
Oh, but I didn't stop you just to catch up.[ST:wait ] |
| 4 |
|
qev097901_MSG0004 |
Commander Vandham asked me to brief you the next[ST:n ]time I saw you.[ST:wait ] |
| 5 |
|
qev097901_MSG0005 |
Are you familiar with BLADE levels?[ST:wait ] |
| 6 |
|
qev097901_JNK0010 |
Deny |
| 7 |
|
qev097901_SEL0011 |
Shake your head no. |
| 8 |
|
qev097901_JNK0020 |
Affirm |
| 9 |
|
qev097901_SEL0021 |
Nod and say that you are familiar with them. |
| 10 |
|
qev097901_MSG0006 |
Oh, good! Glad I didn't prepare this speech for[ST:n ]nothing.[ST:wait ] |
| 11 |
|
qev097901_MSG0007 |
New recruits are assigned a BLADE level of one.[ST:n ]They're just beginning, after all.[ST:wait ] |
| 12 |
|
qev097901_MSG0008 |
As they continue to clear missions, that level will slowly[ST:n ]go up.[ST:wait ] |
| 13 |
|
qev097901_MSG0009 |
You can think of it as a barometer for your[ST:n ]contributions as a BLADE.[ST:wait ] |
| 14 |
|
qev097901_MSG0010 |
The top level is 10—that's reserved for unstoppable[ST:n ]powerhouses and masters of the field. Those are the[ST:n ]BLADEs who get written into the history books.[ST:wait ] |
| 15 |
|
qev097901_MSG0011 |
You've been studying up. That's good.[ST:wait ] |
| 16 |
|
qev097901_MSG0012 |
Then you know that they're like a barometer for your[ST:n ]contributions as a BLADE.[ST:wait ] |
| 17 |
|
qev097901_MSG0013 |
Next up are division points. Know about those?[ST:wait ] |
| 18 |
|
qev097901_JNK0030 |
Deny |
| 19 |
|
qev097901_SEL0031 |
Shake your head no. |
| 20 |
|
qev097901_JNK0040 |
Affirm |
| 21 |
|
qev097901_SEL0041 |
Nod and say that you are familiar with them. |
| 22 |
|
qev097901_MSG0014 |
No? All right.[ST:wait ] |
| 23 |
|
qev097901_MSG0015 |
But you do know about the divisions, right?[ST:wait ] |
| 24 |
|
qev097901_MSG0016 |
The eight BLADE divisions each serve a different,[ST:n ]important role here on Mira.[ST:wait ] |
| 25 |
|
qev097901_MSG0017 |
Roles like expanding FrontierNav, hunting indigens,[ST:n ]retrieving salvage from the White Whale, and so on.[ST:wait ] |
| 26 |
|
qev097901_MSG0018 |
As a BLADE performs those tasks, he or she is awarded[ST:n ]points based on performance.[ST:wait ] |
| 27 |
|
qev097901_MSG0019 |
Those are the division points I mentioned.[ST:wait ] |
| 28 |
|
qev097901_MSG0020 |
Excellent. Then I can skip the detailed explanation.[ST:wait ] |
| 29 |
|
qev097901_MSG0021 |
You probably know this, but to advance your BLADE[ST:n ]level, you have to collect division points.[ST:wait ] |
| 30 |
|
qev097901_MSG0022 |
The good news is that basically any work you do as a[ST:n ]BLADE will net you points. Simple, right?[ST:wait ] |
| 31 |
|
qev097901_JNK0050 |
Boast |
| 32 |
|
qev097901_SEL0051 |
Claim that you will hit level 10 in no time. |
| 33 |
|
qev097901_JNK0060 |
Inquire |
| 34 |
|
qev097901_SEL0061 |
Ask Eleonora what the benefits of a higher level are. |
| 35 |
|
qev097901_MSG0023 |
Ooo, someone's confident![ST:wait ] |
| 36 |
|
qev097901_MSG0024 |
But Commander Vandham may be right in thinking that[ST:n ]confidence of yours will yield great things.[ST:wait ] |
| 37 |
|
qev097901_MSG0025 |
Why don't you set your sights on a BLADE level of two[ST:n ]for now? That should give you an idea what you're up[ST:n ]against.[ST:wait ] |
| 38 |
|
qev097901_MSG0026 |
Come back and see me once you get that far.[ST:wait ] |
| 39 |
|
qev097901_MSG0027 |
I'll have a special bonus set aside for you![ST:wait ] |
| 40 |
|
qev097901_MSG0028 |
Fame. Honor. Glory. ...Not to mention tasty bonuses![ST:wait ] |
| 41 |
|
qev097901_MSG0029 |
I'll keep the specifics a surprise, though.[ST:n ]It's more fun that way.[ST:wait ] |
| 42 |
|
qev097901_MSG0030 |
Why not try for a BLADE level of two to start?[ST:wait ] |
| 43 |
|
qev097901_MSG0031 |
Come back to me once you get that far.[ST:n ]I'll have your bonus waiting![ST:wait ] |
| 44 |
|
qev097901_MSG0032 |
You'll need to collect division points to raise your[ST:n ]BLADE level.[ST:wait ] |
| 45 |
|
qev097901_MSG0033 |
You can earn them by defeating tyrants and expanding[ST:n ]FrontierNav.[ST:wait ] |
| 46 |
|
qev097901_MSG0034 |
But you also get them for finishing missions,[ST:n ]fleshing out your item collection, and...[ST:wait ] |
| 47 |
|
qev097901_MSG0035 |
Well, you know—BLADE stuff![ST:wait ] |
| 48 |
|
qev097901_MSG0036 |
That said, doing work for your assigned division is the[ST:n ]quickest way to earn points.[ST:wait ] |
| 49 |
|
qev097901_MSG0037 |
They'll pay out the best point rate.[ST:wait ] |
| 50 |
|
qev097901_MSG0038 |
Welcome back. Looks like your BLADE level's gone up![ST:wait ] |
| 51 |
|
qev097901_MSG0039 |
Which means it's time for another educational chat.[ST:wait ] |
| 52 |
|
qev097901_MSG0040 |
Whoa, wait. Have you already increased your BLADE[ST:n ]level?[ST:wait ] |
| 53 |
|
qev097901_MSG0041 |
I thought so! You certainly don't put off the vibe of an[ST:n ]amateur, that's for sure.[ST:wait ] |
| 54 |
|
qev097901_MSG0042 |
Well, I'll still give you my spiel, just in case.[ST:wait ] |
| 55 |
|
qev097901_MSG0043 |
Whenever your BLADE level increases, pay me a visit.[ST:wait ] |
| 56 |
|
qev097901_MSG0044 |
Once I've verified your status, I'm authorized to issue[ST:n ]you a fat bonus.[ST:wait ] |
| 57 |
|
qev097901_MSG0045 |
So let's start by getting you a gift to commemorate[ST:n ]reaching BLADE level two.[ST:wait ] |
| 58 |
|
qev097901_MSG0046 |
Congratulations![ST:wait ] |
| 59 |
|
qev097901_MSG0047 |
Have you had a look at your bonus?[ST:wait ] |
| 60 |
|
qev097901_MSG0048 |
I'll be furnishing you with all sorts of things to deck out[ST:n ]and customize your barracks.[ST:wait ] |
| 61 |
|
qev097901_MSG0049 |
That's the only place on Mira you can truly call home,[ST:n ]after all.[ST:wait ] |
| 62 |
|
qev097901_MSG0050 |
And now you can make it just like home by tweaking[ST:n ]the design to your liking.[ST:wait ] |
| 63 |
|
qev097901_MSG0051 |
Not the sort of thing you expect Vandham to think of,[ST:n ]is it? He doesn't exactly scream \"interior designer.\"[ST:wait ] |
| 64 |
|
qev097901_MSG0052 |
Truth is, a month or so ago a petition went around[ST:n ]and a hundred BLADEs signed on![ST:wait ] |
| 65 |
|
qev097901_MSG0053 |
But I digress! Back to the briefing at hand.[ST:wait ] |
| 66 |
|
qev097901_MSG0054 |
There's one additional bonus—probably one you care[ST:n ]more about than redecorating your room.[ST:wait ] |
| 67 |
|
qev097901_MSG0055 |
I'll be increasing the level of your skills.[ST:wait ] |
| 68 |
|
qev097901_MSG0056 |
You have three field skills in total: mechanical,[ST:n ]biological, and archaeological.[ST:wait ] |
| 69 |
|
qev097901_MSG0057 |
But each is still fairly rudimentary at this point,[ST:n ]and you're ready to move beyond that.[ST:wait ] |
| 70 |
|
qev097901_MSG0058 |
Well, I've got good news![ST:wait ] |
| 71 |
|
qev097901_MSG0059 |
As a part of your bonus, you can choose to improve[ST:n ]one of your field skills![ST:wait ] |
| 72 |
|
qev097901_MSG0060 |
You may think it's a little cheap of us to force you[ST:n ]to choose one at a time, but believe it or not,[ST:n ]it's for your own sake.[ST:wait ] |
| 73 |
|
qev097901_MSG0061 |
Forcing too many advanced concepts on a BLADE at[ST:n ]once tends to confuse and overwhelm more than help.[ST:wait ] |
| 74 |
|
qev097901_MSG0062 |
Not to mention that if misused, someone could take[ST:n ]that expertise, hack the computers in BLADE Tower,[ST:n ]and endanger all of humanity.[ST:wait ] |
| 75 |
|
qev097901_MSG0063 |
That's why the highest tiers of technical skill are[ST:n ]reserved for people who have proven themselves[ST:n ]trustworthy—those with high BLADE levels.[ST:wait ] |
| 76 |
|
qev097901_MSG0064 |
All right, enough lecturing—time for the fun part.[ST:n ]Which field skill will we be boosting for you today?[ST:wait ] |
| 77 |
|
qev097901_JNK0070 |
Choose Mechanical |
| 78 |
|
qev097901_SEL0071 |
Enhance your mechanical skill. |
| 79 |
|
qev097901_JNK0080 |
Choose Biological |
| 80 |
|
qev097901_SEL0081 |
Enhance your biological skill. |
| 81 |
|
qev097901_JNK0090 |
Choose Archaeological |
| 82 |
|
qev097901_SEL0091 |
Enhance your archaeological skill. |
| 83 |
|
qev097901_MSG0065 |
All right, your mechanical field skill is officially[ST:n ]enhanced![ST:wait ] |
| 84 |
|
qev097901_MSG0066 |
All right, your biological field skill is officially enhanced![ST:wait ] |
| 85 |
|
qev097901_MSG0067 |
All right, your archaeological field skill is officially[ST:n ]enhanced![ST:wait ] |
| 86 |
|
qev097901_MSG0068 |
That's all for this round's bonus. And for the briefing.[ST:wait ] |
| 87 |
|
qev097901_MSG0069 |
As of today, you're a proper BLADE.[ST:n ]Now get out there and earn those division points![ST:wait ] |
| 88 |
|
qev097901_MSG0070 |
I'll see you when you hit BLADE level three.[ST:wait ] |
| 89 |
|
qev097901_MSG0071 |
I'm always here.[ST:n ]In the meantime, good luck and have fun![ST:wait ] |
