So You Wanna Be BFFs? A (Slightly Unhinged) Guide to Max Bond Levels in Scarlet Nexus
Ah, Scarlet Nexus. Brainpunk monsters, flashy psychic powers, and a squad of quirky teammates who are definitely not just there for the paycheck (or the chance to dissect your brain after a particularly rough mission, cough Karen cough). But let's face it, these guys and gals are the real stars of the show. Especially once you unlock their full potential through the glorious power of... FRIENDSHIP!
That's right, by nurturing your bond with your squad, you unlock some seriously awesome SAS abilities that turn you into a two-person (or five-person, depending on your playstyle) wrecking crew. But here's the thing: getting to Bond Level 6 ain't exactly a walk in the park. Fear not, fellow crusader for psychic harmony, for I, your friendly neighborhood guide (with a slightly concerning amount of playtime clocked in Scarlet Nexus), am here to help!
QuickTip: Pause to connect ideas in your mind.

| How To Get Bond Level 6 Scarlet Nexus |
Step 1: Operation: Chatterbox
Because hey, what are friends for if not to bombard each other with inane questions?
QuickTip: Use CTRL + F to search for keywords quickly.

Listen Up, Buttercup! This one's pretty straightforward. Throughout the game, your teammates will throw brain messages your way. Responding to these little tidbits not only gives you a peek into their personalities, but also bumps up that precious bond level. So ditch the stoic silence, Yuito/Kasane, and unleash your inner chatterbox!
-
Hideout Hustle: The hideout is your home away from home, a place to unwind, stock up on questionable fashion accessories (looking at you, Tsugumi's cat ears), and most importantly, talk to your team! Every phase of the story unlocks new conversations, so make sure to chat with everyone after progressing the plot. You never know what juicy gossip or hidden depths you might uncover!
Word to the Wise: Not all characters have the same amount of brain messages or hideout conversations. Fear not, for we shall delve into...
QuickTip: Reading regularly builds stronger recall.
Step 2: Operation: Giftastic!
Because sometimes, the best way to say "I care" is with a poorly-translated stuffed animal.
Tip: Take mental snapshots of important details.

The Exchange is Your New Best Friend: Tucked away next to every save point is a magical place called the Exchange. Here, you can use your hard-earned enemy goo (don't ask) to purchase... presents! Each character has a list of preferred gifts, and showering them with these tokens of affection is a guaranteed way to boost your bond. Just remember, some characters are more materialistic than others (cough Luka cough).
-
The Art of the Gift Grind: Now, what if you've exhausted the gift options and your bond level is still lagging behind? Fear not, for there's a little trick up our collective sleeve! While giving a character the same gift multiple times offers diminishing returns, it does still contribute some points. So, if you're feeling particularly dedicated (or have a serious yen for crafting those "Sparkling Slime Plushies"), you can unleash your inner gift-giving machine. Just be prepared for your teammates to develop a sudden aversion to plushies...
Pro Tip: Replay missions with characters who have low bond levels. Not only will you get a chance to chat with them more (see Step 1!), but you'll also be earning bond points through combat!
Step 3: Operation: Patience (Ugh, the Worst One)
Because sometimes, good things come to those who wait (and grind a LOT of plushies).
Listen, there's no shame in admitting it: getting everyone to Bond Level 6 takes time. There will be moments of frustration (dang you, stubborn bond levels!), moments of questionable gift-giving choices (who knew Luka secretly hated fish?), but ultimately, the journey is just as rewarding as the destination. So crank up the music, grab your favorite plushie-crafting supplies, and get ready to become the ultimate BFF in the Otherworld!
Remember: Persistence is key! With a little dedication and a whole lot of questionable fashion choices (courtesy of the hideout's wardrobe), you'll be unlocking those sweet SAS abilities and dominating the battlefield with your newfound best buds in no time! Just don't blame me if Karen starts asking to borrow your brain for "research purposes" after all that gift-giving...
