Quest Tips
•Follow the Story: NPC Dialogues: Pay close attention to what NPCs say. They might give hints about what to do next or how to approach certain challenges.
•Quick Adaptation: Since the quest involves an "impromptu change," be ready to shift your strategy. If you're expecting a puzzle but suddenly face combat, switch your team composition if necessary.
•Use the Environment: Geo Constructs: If you're dealing with Geo-related puzzles or enemies, remember that Geo structures can often be used to your advantage, like creating barriers or platforms.
•Keep an Eye on Quest Objectives: Sometimes, the game might give you a new objective on the fly. Make sure to check your quest log frequently so you don't miss any changes or new directions.

•Co-op Mode: If you find the combat or puzzles too challenging, consider bringing in friends via co-op mode. Some puzzles or fights can be easier or more fun with others.
