Should You Attack Troubadour?

Do Not Attack Troubadour Initially

Choice Consequence
Leave Troubadour Alone ・Troubadour lives
・Gain the opportunity to obtain a special reward later on
Attack Troubadour ・Trigger a boss fight with Troubadour and gain a Resplendent Chroma Catalyst after winning
・Troubadour disappears

It is not recommended to attack Troubadour as players will lose the opportunity to gain a special reward later in the story. Another Nevron NPC can be spoken to later on that will award the players for keeping these special Nevrons alive.

Attacking Troubadour Will Lead to a Boss Fight

Choosing to attack Troubadour will lead to a boss fight. Restore your health and update your attributes and skills at the nearby rest point before choosing this option.

All Nevron Quests

Attacking Troubadour can be done after unlocking the Aiding the Enemy achievement. This allows players to obtain both the rewards of the quest and the battle without missing out on either the achievement or the special reward later on.

Trumpet Trial Guide

Troubadour's trial has three phases that involve them using a trumpet that dishes out green and red orbs. When the red orbs pop up, dodge. When the green orb shows up, stay still.

Do note that in order to move on to the next phase, you need to dodge or absorb all the obs from the previous phase. The fastest way to determine the color of the orb is to pay attention to the bell of the trumpet!
