Blade Information

How to unlock: To unlock Poppi QT π you are required to meet three requirements to unlock:

1. Reach at least chapter 8 in the main story.
2. Finish the Heart-to-Heart event "Growing up" in the Leftherian Archipelago. This is located on the island just north of the Orl Cloudway: Rigitte skip travel marker.
3. Last after finishing the other 2 requirements then return to Tora's house to fun a new side quest named Powered-Up Poppi. All 5 normal party members and Pyra must be in the group. First you will have to collect 10 golden cogs. These can be salvaged via most salvage points in Temperantia. After returning to Tora's house you will be asked to go collect 3 more itmes. 1st is 5 Cubic Diamonds in Mor Ardain. These can be found at several mining collection points throughout Mor Ardain but you can easly find them by skip traveling to the Ruined Laborers' Bridge and following the stairwell in front of you up and the first collection point, If you don't get enough you can just travel back to the skip location and collect the item again. Second item you need is 12 Ambler Stigmas witch can be collected from a collection point just south of the Great Wall Tunnel No.8 Skip travel location in Morytha under the collapsed road. Third item is Genbu-Weave Cloth, This can be bough in Tantal at the Textiles merchant. After you have all three return to Tora's house and then after a shot chat you will be sent to Argentum. There you need to be able to make a Lvl.5 Forestry check & a Lvl. 3 Ancient Wisdom skill check. Afterwards you will have to fight a lvl.50 Torl Marrin so be ready for that. Afterwards you will be prompted to return to Tora's house one last time where you will have to exchange items ti fill up a progress bar. All the items can be collected via salvaging. Once filled up Congratulations you have unlocked Poppi QT π.

Blade type: Poppie QT π always uses her Variable Saber but her element and role can be changed. However she starts as a Ice/Attack type blade.

Poppiswap: Unlike normal blades Poppi QT π and her other forms Blade arts,Element,and Combat role can be changed by exchanging Ether for different upgrades. This means given enough time you can make Poppi QT π fill any role needed in your party. Please note that upgrades to 1 form of Poppi QT π will not transfer to then other 2 forms so you will have to invest Ether in each form separately. Also note that because Poppi QT π can use Poppiswap she can not use Aux Cores.
