Giving gifts is one of the fastest ways to raise bond levels in Rune Factory: Guardians of Azuma. It also unlocks new battle skills, lets you date and marry characters, and earns you return gifts.
Here’s a full guide to every romanceable character’s favorite and liked gifts, plus a few tips to get the most bond points per day.
How Gifting Works
You can give one gift per character per day. Just talk to them, then choose the gift option.
Neutral gift = +8 bond
Liked gift = +16 bond
Loved gift = +29 bond
Some gifts give +13 if they’re better than neutral but not actually liked
You can also hang out with a character the same day for even more bond progress.
