There are over 100 Unique Monsters to take on in Xenoblade Chronicles 3, and each one unlocks a different Soul Hack Art or Skill. These creatures are much more difficult to kill than regular enemies, but fighting them is also one of the best methods for farming items in the game. Since Unique Monsters have better drop rates, players can expect large amounts of Nopon Coins, along with powerful high-quality Accessories and other items.
Unique Monsters can be found in every region and are distinguishable by the orange outline around their name when players target them. The creatures also all have special names that make it easy to identify them. Unique Monsters can range from level five to level 120, which means some of these enemies exceed the max player level, which is 99.

Most of the Unique Monsters can be found in Xenoblade Chronicles 3 roaming around out in the open, so they shouldn't be too hard to spot. However, some are hiding in secret areas or are burrowed underground and won't jump out until players are close enough. Aside from farming items, the other reason to fight Unique Monsters is to unlock new abilities for the Soulhacker class.
