Xenoblade Chronicles 13

Those Giant Blades, just turning, turning and turning, blades go in a circle, and they are in our way, wonder if they can knock us off the building.
The tower structure that we are on, is build for mining purposes, and now, it's full of mechon.
Defeated a mechon, and got a Generic Shaft, how plain is that?
The massive blades can not damage the group, though they push us in the direction where blades are turning, can make a nice lift!
So, the Giant Blades aren't very dangerous, and they are slow too.
And this, is the Central Pit, and we are heading to the bottom of it!
From what has been seen so far, gather, that we need to make a turn off the Tower, and ride one of these elevators, and the elevators will bring us down.
Wonder, if the elevators work...
Found a Water Crystal, our crystal inventory is almost full however, would need to Craft some gems, to clear it up, and for that would need to go back to Town.
Good, reached the Lift Landmark, a good place to teleport!
To produce a high quality Gem, the reaction strength should be, at more than 100 %, will start with the weakest crystals, got too many of those...
Krabble crystals are good quality, noting that.
A crystal, that gives Double Attack, sounds tempting...
Crafting partners: Shooter will be Shulk, and Sharla will be the engineer...
Got three Gems, and two Cylinders!
A few more Crafting...
This time, will try to make more cylinders, then combine cylinders into one Big Gem!
Again, got too many gems...
Will Aim for the smallest reaction strength, this time.
And relationship, also pays a major role, thus will be using Reyn and Shulk, as they have a very strong partnership!
No Gems, a few Cylinders, not too bad, continue...
Sharla was better at producing cylinders, so far; now to make a strong Gem, will need Reyn for that.
A beautiful, First Attack Plus Gem!
What to do, with all these extra Gems, they are too weak to be useful, maybe sell 'em...
Sharla the Shooter, and Shulk the Engineer, a combination that produces a lot of cylinders!
Well, this worked out better than usual, three cylinders, two high quality Gems, and one normal Gem.
Then the trick to Crafting, is to put as many crystals and cylinders as possible, without reaching 100 % reaction strength, and then adding the strongest crystal available at the last slot, and after that, the reaction can begin!
Finally, put most of the smaller crystals to use, can now produce a Big One!
Too few larger crystals, those are scarce, and rare to find ones.
Strength Up III gem will be useful, for Shulk that is!
Reyn mostly uses unremovable gems, so he won't be needing any, at this point!
Let's see if we can sell those Gems, and afterwards, go back to the Ether Mines.
Wow, those little Gems, sell at a far higher price, than expected!
Gonna sell, all lower quality Gems!
Teleporting back to Ether Mine...
Central Pit, Level 2, going down, slowly...
Mechons were gathering around the Fire Crystals...
While defeating Mechon, found some equipment, new, or not?
Lieutenant Pike, is a good weapon for Reyn, will add Lightning Attack to it, and it'll do well against the mechon, and other machines, probably...
Looking down, this Tower goes deep, could be a long way...
