Friendship with another Pathfinder runs on a point score from New Friend to Soulmate, and each level opens something new — better report bonuses, rarer Aniimo in Companion Mode, poses you cannot play alone.

Companion Mode
Start Companion Mode in a party: the guide turns it on with the Student ID and the other members follow the guide. It is played in the team leader's world, and a friend can ask to join from your Profile. Invites can only be sent to friends. Aniimo the guide catches can be gifted to party members, and when the guide reports catches, the other members get a share of the rewards. The Companion Mode reward limit resets every Monday.
The six levels
| Level | Name | From | To |

| 2 | Good Friend | 100 | 499 |
| 3 | Close Friend | 500 | 1199 |

How to Obtain Affinity
| Interactions | Affinity | Daily limit |
|---|---|---|
| Chat | +10 | 20 |
| Interaction Gestures | +20 | 20 |
| Visit Home | +20 | 20 |
| Clear a multiplayer dungeon as a team | +40 | 40 |
| Defeat an Alpha or Omega as a team | +20 | 60 |
Interactions with one friend give at most 100 Affinity a day; the friend's Affinity Info panel counts it. Soulmate starts at 4,500 Affinity, so interactions alone take at least 45 days.
Gifts add Affinity too, up to 5 gifts to each friend a week: • Gift of Encounter: Once gifted, the recipient receives 6,000 Credits and you receive 6,000 Credits. Gifting to a friend grants an extra 10 Affinity. • Gift of Affection: Gifting to a friend grants 30 bonus Affinity. • Gift of Celebration: Gifting to a friend grants 99 bonus Affinity.

1. Reach Soulmate (4,500 Affinity) with a friend and keep up your daily interactions until you become Illusory Friends. You can be Illusory Friends with only one friend at a time. 2. Open that friend's profile card and choose Aniimo Illusory. They get an Illusory Invite and have to accept it, so they must be online. With any other friend the game says "Not Illusory Friends yet". 3. Each of you picks one of your own Aniimo and presses Confirm Selection. Once both have confirmed, a 3-second countdown runs and the two Aniimo cuddle. 4. Your Aniimo is now an Illusory Aniimo. Its details show Illusifying Friend and Illusification Date.
The selection refuses an Aniimo that is already an Illusory Aniimo, is in your current combat or exploration party, is in your Home, or is currently deployed.
You can have 1 Illusory Aniimo at a time with your Illusory Friend. Choosing a new one turns the earlier one back into its original form; the game asks first.
No stat bonus in this build: becoming an Illusory Aniimo adds 0 Innate Potential levels.
