Talk to Zhao
Still bewildered by how you and your companions can get stuck in an illusion within Papago Hollow, Zhao chimes in, offering intel about the Hollow itself.
Read her DMs, then proceed to the HAND Headquarters Parking Lot to speak to her. She will then hint at Miasma being the culprit behind the illusions.
Relay the Intel to Nanson
Go back to the vehicle and relay what Zhao told you to Nanson. Once you're ready, agree to go to the Papago Hollow to investigate, with Yixuan herself leading the charge.
Pale Breath - Solo Investigation
Yixuan will be the only one deployed for this mission, as its only end goal is to confirm and ascertain the nature of the Miasma within Papago Hollow.
Yixuan Hollow Walkthrough
| Yixuan Hollow Walkthrough | |
|---|---|
| 1 | Proceed forward and defeat the first batch of enemies. Do take note of the Miasma and Miasma Queling meters, and watch out for enemy attacks! |
| 2 | Miasma Particles can be dropped by downed enemies and picked up to progress your Miasma Quelling meter This will not only negate the effects of Miasma, but also send out a purifying shockwave and put your Agent in the Miasma Quelling status, which increases DMG dealt to Miasma shields! |
| 3 | Defeat the second batch of enemies with the Miasma Quelling effect in mind. Afterwards, proceed forward. |
| 4 | Activate the Data Pile and stay within its range while defeating enemies to fully extract the data. |
Report Back to Nanson
After the investigation, report back to Nanson to get debriefed about the investigation's progress.
Pale Breath - Joint Investigation Standard
Once you have equipped your Agent’s Gear and Resonia, it’s time to return to the Hollow and participate in the Joint Investigation - Standard to investigate the area for clues.
Proxies can join this mode through matchmaking or by inviting friends to complete missions together! The Proxies will team up using their chosen Agents to investigate the Hollow while defeating enemies to progress through the area.
Pale Breath Standard Walkthrough
| Area | Objective |
|---|---|
| Data Extraction |  Activate the Data Piles and stay within their range to fully extract their data. The more Agents in range, the faster the extraction! |
| Time Trial Challenge |  Defeat all enemies within the time allotment. |
| Miasma Quelling Domain |  Crush as many Miasma Particles as possible to purify the Miasma core! |
| Elite Battle |  Defeat all elite enemies! Bonus Objective: Perform one Ultimate. |
| Final Clash |  Defeat the powerful final enemy! |
Review the Papago Hollow with Yanagi
After the Joint Investigation and rescuing Zhao, you will automatically enter a debriefing with Yanagi and Nanson about her condition and your findings in Papago Hollow.
Pale Breath - Joint Investigation High Risk
Proxies will unlock the High Risk mode, which requires them to team up with another Proxy to confront a powerful enemy encountered from the last area of the Standard mode, and will instantly start at the Final Clash.
How to Beat Haytor
In Pale Breath - High risk, you will be pitted against the Haytor. Once it deploys a Miasmic Shield, crush the Miasmic Particles to quickly shred it!
