Background Noise is a skill in Xenoblade Chronicles X.

Overview[edit]

Background Noise is, in terms of additive damage increases, one of the highest amongst all skills. Being derived from the Commando Class line, this skill is designed for synergy with the Dual Swords and its frequent use of increased positional damage from behind (e.g. Hundred Shells, Shadowrunner etc.). For this purpose, it works pretty well.

This skill also acts as a good pair to Topple-locking builds, as this will ensure the user can stay behind the target and make maximal use of Background Noise.
