How To Increase Friendship Xenoverse 2

Hey there, fellow Xenoverse 2 devotee! So, you wanna be best buds with everyone in Conton City, huh? I get it. Unlocking those sweet, sweet skills requires some serious friendship grinding. But don't worry, it's not as painful as fighting Beerus with a Yamcha build. Let's dive in, shall we?

Train, Train, Train (Like You Mean It!)

First things first: Training. It's the OG method. Find your desired mentor – Vegeta, Piccolo, whoever tickles your fancy – and just keep hitting those training missions. I know, I know, it can feel repetitive. But think of it as... bonding through shared sweat? Okay, maybe not. But it works! Plus, you get some cool moves along the way. Win-win!

Pro-Tip: Use characters you like playing with to train, it makes the grind less of a… grind. Unless you’re into the grind. No judgment here.

Take Them on Expert Missions (Because Saving the World Builds Bonds)

Got a mentor you’re trying to buddy-up with? Take them with you on Expert Missions! These missions are tough, no joke. But bringing your mentor along gives them a nice friendship boost. Think of it as them appreciating your teamwork (and maybe your ability to carry them, if you're being honest). Plus, you get to beat up giant apes and energy-draining Namekians. What's not to love?

Just remember to actually, you know, fight alongside them. Don't just leave them in the dust while you go Super Saiyan God Super Saiyan Evolved on Frieza. That's just rude... and ineffective for friendship.

Use Them as Partners in Parallel Quests (PQs are Your Friend)

Speaking of quests, Parallel Quests (PQs) are another fantastic way to level up those friendships. Select the PQ, pick your mentor as your teammate, and blast through it! The harder the PQ, the more friendship points you'll get. It's like saying, "Hey mentor, let's go beat up some bad guys and become even better friends!"

Seriously, this is a great way to farm Dragon Balls too! Double win! Okay, maybe triple if you count the friendship points. Are we counting right?

Gifts! (Who Doesn't Love Free Stuff?)

Alright, listen up, because this is important: Gifts! Head over to the TP Medal Shop and buy the special gifts your mentor likes. They'll be marked with a little friendship icon. Giving them these gifts is like saying, "Hey, I appreciate you and want to be your friend! Here's a thing!" It's way more effective than just awkwardly standing next to them.

Just make sure you’re buying the right gifts. Giving Vegeta a bunch of food probably won’t go down too well. He's a Saiyan Prince, not a bottomless pit… well, maybe he is. Still, get him something that screams "training" or "royalty".

Talk To Them! (Communication is Key, Even in a Fighting Game)

Okay, this might sound simple, but don't underestimate the power of a good conversation! Periodically talk to your mentor in Conton City. Sometimes they'll have a little speech bubble over their heads. Click on them, listen to what they have to say, and BAM! Free friendship points!

Sometimes they'll just spout random nonsense, but hey, it's still a chance to connect, right? And who knows, maybe they'll drop some knowledge bombs along the way. Or at least tell you a funny story about Goku.

The Fast Track (For Those Who Are Impatient)

Alright, so if you're really impatient (and have some TP Medals to burn), there's a faster way. Go to the Skill Shop and buy the "Super Mix Capsule Z." Combine that with a Hercule Badge (also bought from the TP Medal Shop) at the mixing shop. This will give you a Friendship Booster item! Use it to get a massive friendship boost!

Warning: This method can be a little pricey, but hey, time is money, right? Plus, think of all the awesome skills you'll unlock sooner! You will dominate the online battles!

So there you have it! My totally foolproof (probably) guide to maxing out friendships in Xenoverse 2. Now get out there, make some friends, and unlock all those sweet, sweet abilities! Good luck, and happy fighting!
