YoRHa Manual: Weapon/Pod Skill Locations and Sidequest Help – Nier Automata

NieR Automata

A spoiler-free guide to every weapon and Pod Program. Includes maps of locations and images for your convenience. Other miscellaneous info on tricky sidequests and useful tips can be found in the later sections of the guide.

Introduction

NieR Automata

Hello, everyone!

This is data I’ve compiled from my time with both the PS4 and Steam versions of the Nier: Automata. I intend to keep this guide spoiler-free, so any name drops will be marked with a spoiler tag.

Just a heads up, gameplay difficulty does not restrict you from any equipment or achievements, so play at any difficulty you’re comfortable with. Also, do not freak out if you happen to miss a piece of equipment or quest. You can always return to previous sections of the game via Chapter Select which becomes available late into the game.

Weapons Section

NieR Automata Heritage of the Past

There is a total of 40 weapons in the game. Each with varying stats and abilities gained upon upgrade. All weapons can be upgraded to level 4.

  • 13 Short Swords
  • 9 Large Swords
  • 9 Spears
  • 9 Combat Bracers

Note: Combo Lt # and Hv # is the maximum amount of hits you can do in a single combo chain with a specific weapon by itself. Lt = Light Attack, Hv = Heavy Attack

Quest Help

NieR Automata Weapons

This section will focus on tricky sidequests that can prove difficult to complete. They’re mainly unmarked quests or quests with no specific waypoint.

Reminder: You can use Chapter Select to go back to previous chapters to complete any sidequests you may have missed. Chapter Select is unlocked after Route C (3rd playthrough.)

Find a Present

Notable Rewards: Type-4O Blade, A130: Bomb Pod Program

You must first complete the “Terminal Repairs” sidequest which can be done after the A2 Boss fight at the Forest Castle.

Note: The tricky thing about this sidequest is that it can initiated around the same time as a main quest which has you doing a similar task. If you’re unable to begin this quest, then you should first complete the main quest where you must destroy some enhanced (red/black) machines near a terminal in the City Ruin’s crater.

An easy way to initiate “Terminal Repairs” is to fast travel to the Desert Camp and then make your way into the City Ruins. Upon entering, Operator 60 will contact you about a terminal station that has gone offline. Head over to the marked location and destroy the machines. “Terminal Repairs” should now be completed, open your inbox and grab your reward.

For the next part, fast travel to the Resistance Camp and you should receive the “Find a Present” sidequest inside your inbox. From here it’s self-explanatory. Go to the Desert, complete the quest and enjoy your new Type-40 Sword along with the A130: Bomb Pod Program.

Lost Girl

Notable Rewards: Pink Ribbon, Blue Ribbon

This can be picked up at Pascal’s Village. It is notorious for a bug that sometimes prevent players from completing it. However, If you happen to run into this bug, there is a workaround for it.

During this quest, you will be forced to escort the “Little Sister” Machine while being ambushed by other hostile machines. Unfortunately, there are times where some of the enemies won’t spawn and Little Sister will stop in her tracks. There are two ways to fix this – attack the ground where the hostiles are supposed to spawn, or simply run a few feets away from Little Sister and come back. The enemies should now pop up out of the sand.

Data on the Old World

A quest with no waypoints. To complete this quest head to the location marked below in the City Ruins. There is a locked chest in the lower floor of this building. Use 9S to hack the chest. The object you’re looking for is inside.

Heritage of the Past

Notable Rewards: Spear of the Usurper

Another tricky quest with no waypoint. You are tasked with using the Scanner program to search for old world artifacts in the Desert Zone. This quest will first become available after obtaining the Scanner program.

After picking up the quest, head to the following 3 locations and scan the area with your Pod Program for quest items.

Once all 3 objects are collected, return to the quest giver and turn them in. You have one more spot to go to. Head to the location below and be prepared for a fight. Once you retrieve the quest item, machines will ambush you. Destroy them, bring the quest object back to the quest giver and complete the quest.

Unmarked Secret Sidequest Part 1

Notable Rewards: Emil Heads (Combat Bracers)

This next bit will focus on the somewhat hidden quest chain available after completing Emil’s Memories. Must be able to defeat a level 99 boss.

Note: For this part, you’ll have to use 9S. If you’ve just used Chapter Select, be sure to speak to Emil at least once before attempting to continue.

Track down Emil, wherever he is on the map. After speaking to him, he’ll mention that he lives “deep underground.” Head into the large sewer pipe shown below and take the elevator down.

Once underground, descend to the lowest level and keep going until you reach a door with two shield enemies guarding it. It can be opened if you did the previous steps correctly.

This is Emil’s home. Go inside and steal Emil’s mask.

After stealing the mask, return and speak with Emil. He’ll tell you about his new security safety measure.

Head back down underground and go into Emil’s home once more. There’ll be a locked chest. Hack it and you’ll receive an Emil’s head (fashion accessory.)

When you attempt to leave, be prepared for a fight. Emil will ambush you at the door. He’s level 99- if you manage to defeat him, he’ll drop the Emil Heads (Combat Bracer) on the ground.

This is the end of the first-half of the secret quest chain.

Unmarked Secret Sidequest Part 2

You can only initiate this quest after finding and upgrading every single weapon to level 4!! See under the Weapons section on how to upgrade weapons to level 4.

Note: You may use any character for this part. They’ll each have their own dialogue for the encounter.

Once you’ve completed the prerequisites, head to the Shopping Mall district. Emil will be waiting for you there with a new quest. He’ll speed off into the Desert Zone afterwards.

Follow him (you’ll have a waypoint marked on your map this time) for a fateful encounter and another level 99 boss battle!

During the fight, the boss will attempt to self-destruct; if you allow him to do so, you’ll receive one of the alternate endings, Ending Y. Stopping him from self-destructing will end the boss encounter. This marks the end of the secret quest chain! Congratulations!!

I may add more to this section as time goes on, but this is it for now!
