Hey there! So, you're diving into Xenoblade Chronicles: Definitive Edition and want to tackle those Collection Quests in Colony 9? Awesome! These are a great way to earn some extra cash and experience while exploring. Think of them as little scavenger hunts scattered around the place. We've broken them down for you, so let's get them done!

Material Quests

First up, we've got quests where you'll need to do a bit of monster hunting to grab specific materials. Don't worry, these are usually pretty common enemies.

Material Quest 1: Small Shells

You'll need to head towards the Fortress Entrance area. Your goal is to collect 2 Small Shells. These are dropped by the Krabbles you'll find around there. It's a straightforward one, and you'll get 500G for your trouble.

Material Quest 2 & 3: Vang Teeth

For these two quests, you'll be heading to the Ether Light area. The objective is to collect 2 Vang Teeth. The enemies you're looking for are the Little Vangs. Both quests give you 800G, so it's worth doing them together if you can!

Material Quest 4: Yolkless Flamii Egg

This one sends you to Tranquil Square. You need to grab 1 Yolkless Flamii Egg. Keep an eye out for the Flamii type enemies, as they'll drop what you need. You'll earn 800G for completing this.

Collection Quests

These are a bit different – you're not fighting monsters, but rather finding specific collectible items scattered around Colony 9.

Collection Quest 1: Rabbit Diodes

Head over to the Ether Light area. You need to collect 2 Rabbit Diodes. This one's a quick 500G reward.

Collection Quest 2: Plate Snow

Another one for the Ether Light area. This time, you just need to find 1 Plate Snow. It's a bit less lucrative, offering 300G, but still good to clear out.

Collection Quest 3: Rainbow Zirconias

Make your way to Tranquil Square for this quest. You're looking for 2 Rainbow Zirconias. This one pays out 800G, so it's a nice little boost.

Collection Quest 4: Giant Hornet

Also in Tranquil Square, you need to collect 1 Giant Hornet. This quest rewards you with 300G.

Search Quests

These are the quests where you'll be helping out some of the non-unique NPCs by finding their lost items. They usually offer a good chunk of EXP along with the money!

Search Quest 1: Wedding Ring

Start in the Central Plaza. You need to find a lost Wedding Ring. The item is located in the Commercial District, specifically Behind Dunban’s House. You'll get a solid 1200G and 50 EXP for this.

Search Quest 2: Blue Glass Bead

Head to Tranquil Square. Your mission is to find a lost Blue Glass Bead. You'll find it in Tranquil Square itself, behind a building near the bridge. This one nets you 1200G and 50 EXP.

Search Quest 3: The Key

This quest starts at the Ether Light. You need to find a lost Key. Look for it Behind a house in the Southern parts of Tranquil Square. Completing this gives you 1200G and 50 EXP.

Search Quest 4: The Spanner

Your final search quest takes you to Tranquil Square. You're looking for a lost Spanner. It's located On an upper level near the Gem Man’s Stall. This is the best paying one of the bunch, giving you 1500G and 50 EXP. Nice!

And that's it for the collection-type quests in Colony 9! Keep at it, and you'll be well on your way to becoming a Xenoblade master.
