Introduction] Welcome to the not-so-fantabulous Star Ocean Till the End of Time Affection FAQ! This guide is here to provide a better understanding of the PA and Affection Level systems in SO3 for those who cannot or are not interested in purchasing the official strategy guide. It's also here because I've just always wanted to make a FAQ, and affection levels are among my favorite things in games. :3 So, then! Let's get started. [II. Affection Levels - What they do] Affection levels are, simply put, how much your characters like each other. Most of these matter jack-all, honestly, so unless people really want to know or I just find something amusing, I'll only be putting the bases and changes that affect Fayt's affection towards others and vice versa. Yes, you heard me. Unlike the game's predecessors, boosting the characters' affection levels for not-Fayt characters doesn't matter. Don't affect the endings at all, to my knowledge, and no affection levels matter during the course of the game itself. Such is our woe, of course. SUMMARY (because I'm a bit of a wordy dumbass): Fayt's affection levels towards other characters and vice versa affect the endings. The rest do squat. :D [III. Affection Levels - How they work, and starting levels] How do affection levels work? Very simply! (No, really.) They work on a point-based system, with most choices you make throughout the game adding points, subtracting points, or, in some cases, doing nothing. MAJOR NOTE: To get an ending with a character, be aware of two important things. 1. The character must be a member of your party by the time of the final boss fight. ("Party" as in general party, not battle party.) 2. Fayt's affection for the character must be 21 points or higher, while the character's affection for Fayt must be 50 points or higher. That being said, here are the starting affection levels! OTHERS' starting affection levels for Fayt ------------------------------------------ Sophia - 26 Cliff - 19 Maria - 22 Nel - 19 Roger - 21 Albel - 17 Peppita - 20 Mirage - 20 Adray - 22 FAYT'S start affection levels for others ---------------------------------------- Sophia - 24 Cliff - 19 Maria - 21 Nel - 17 Roger - 19 Albel - 16 Peppita - 20 Mirage - 23 Adray - 21 UNIMPORTANT BUT AMUSING FACT: Albel's affection level for Nel starts out as 20, while hers for him is 15. Bwahahaha. >D Poor baby. *cough* Right! Anyway, that's how things are. Now onto the next part! [IV. Items that affect levels] There are five of these, and despite their descriptions, all of them decrease affection levels for whoever you use them on. This, believe it or not, is a /very good thing/, provided you don't screw up. Anyway! The five items and their base prices are: Endorphin Boost, 18 fol Pheromone Enhancer, 36 fol Tears of Aphrodite, 26 fol Tears of Ishtar, 86 fol Tears of Venus, 56 fol All of these reduce the emotion points of the character you them on by one. You get them through item creation, specifically compounding. All of the items can be made by Gossam, Fayt, and Peppita, but you can also use Milenya for Tears of Venus. Milenya can be recruited in Arias' temple for 3200 fol. Gossam can be recruited on Peterny's north path using the Potion of Youth (Fake), which has a base price of 5 fol, and can be made through compounding by using Puffy, Cliff, Roger, Albel, and/or Peppita. For more information on how to use them, see the multiple ending section of EChang's Private Action FAQ, as I am just that damned lazy. ^^;; [V. The PAs] The meat and flesh and squishy things of this FAQ, these are the only boosters and primary decreasers of affection levels. That said, let's move on!
