Division

Divisions, also known as Unions () in the Japanese version, are the divisions of BLADE in Xenoblade Chronicles X. Cross can choose their own division after they complete , once they're accepted into BLADE. 
==Overview==
The division the player joins affects the Division Points they earn, which helps with their BLADE level and the daily division ranking, updated at 12:00 midnight UTC.
It is possible to change the player division at any time by going to the online console, going to "Division Activity", and selecting "Change Divisions". Doing so requires online access, meaning that after April 2024, changing divisions will no longer be possible. This may be because changing the divisions costs a variable number of Credits, and because it would affect the rankings. 
It is possible to get Division Support from other players if playing online with other players who happen to be in the same region, depending on the other players' divisions. This usually occurs at random intervals.
===Division Boosts===
While playing in a division, the icon may sometimes glow gold. This indicates that the division is currently in boosted mode, which is intended to happen when a division earns more division points than they did the previous day.
In the Japanese version of the game, this would double the total amount of Division Points earned for the rest of the day. This is however not the case in the International version of the game, where the Division Points gained from actions does not increase, likely because of a bug.https://twitter.com/recedingrust/status/1366527560473976833 Tweet from @recedingrust showing division point values during normal and boosted mode. A Japanese version of the game is also referenced in the picture, based on tweet https://twitter.com/09bs2/status/1366403204297207809 from @09bs2. This shows a player gaining 600 Division Points instead of the usual 300 for defeating a gold-crowned Tyrant as a boosted Harrier. This means that Division boosts do nothing outside of the Japanese version of the game.
==Plot==
BLADE is composed of eight different fields of work, and each one has its own division within BLADE. Every BLADE gets to choose their division once they join, and each one does important work.
The initial work for the Divisions was done during the events of the Forging BLADE side story: Kentaro Nagi formed three Skell-centric squads: the Reclaimers to find the lost crew and the White Whale's wreckage, the Interceptors to protect the newly-formed city of New Los Angeles, and the Pathfinders to scout the new planet of Mira.
After Nagi's team of Reclaimers found Maurice Chausson and Lin Lee Koo, two new groups were created: the Harriers to defeat any Tyrants, and the Outfitters to develop weaponry for both Skells and the infantry. All of these divisions, including the later-formed Curators, Prospectors, and Mediators, became part of NLA's new organization: BLADE.
