Division Points, also known as DP, are an important mechanic in Xenoblade Chronicles X. They are earned by performing various BLADE-related activities, such as completing Missions, defeating Enemies, planting Data Probes, or gathering Collectibles. When enough DP are earned, Cross's BLADE Level will increase. The amount of DP earned is greater when the activity is related to Cross's current Division. For example, Pathfinders are responsible for planting Data Probes, and will earn more DP than other divisions do for that activity.
