Alternative method of getting Mirror Matters (CH 7+ spoilers)

SpoilerXenoblade 2 SPOILERS

IDK how well known this is, but while going through the world killing all the uniques I could find, I came across this lad:

This guy drops Mirror Matter Chips, to my knowledge, the only other way of getting these without fighting a colossal lv 110 squid (he drops moon matter, not mirror) is via a chest, and that only drops one chip. You can locate this unique via:

Land of Morytha > Decaying Titan > Central Pathway

For a level 58 unique, he's quite a tank, so I wouldn't recommend farming this bloke until your party hits Level ~70

Bring some Gold Chipped weapons and smash him into oblivion for the best results.

the level 110 squid drops moon matter, not mirror matter

Really?

Damn, I got them confused :c

don't worry, mirror matter is a pretty damn good chip so this is quite helpful to people who want a high crit rate chip but can't kill Ken

if you are lvl 70 already, maybe you should farm some other chip.

For example, the lvl 80 dinosaurs (both the flying ones and the on-land ones) in lower level of Mor Ardain drops better chips

I'm around lvl 80 too. Is there any worthwhile chips I could get, like special effect chips ? Where are the standard, buyable chips ? I don't see anything better than Photon Chips at Cliffs of Morytha.

you should go kill those level 90 T-Rex in Temperantia. They don't drop chips, but gives a lot of exp (25% exp bar at lvl 89)

at 90, you should be able to kill the giant lvl 110 squid boss in lower Tantal (appears only in a storm), who drops a really good crit chip. You can also use that squid to grind up to lvl 99

Is mirror matter or photo chip better?

You can also get Mirror Matter chips in Lower Level Tantal fighting the goat enemies just SW of the initial entry point.

I am going to check that out. Thank you!

Nice. Thank you for the tip. Those chips are very decent. The Werval Eggs around that big bug also drop Nakhlite chips pretty often, and those are decent chips. You can sneak around the bug and dispatch the eggs if you are not yet strong enough to do the giant tick.
