Raising Colony Affinity Levels in Xenoblade Chronicles 3

In essence, the more you do to help out a particular colony, the higher your affinity levels will be. This includes talking to people at the colony, completing various quests, registering your Collectopaedia Cards, sending off soldier husks, or joining their side in skirmishes. Even buying items from the shops will contribute to affinity levels in Xenoblade Chronicles 3.

Making certain decisions in quests can also affect affinity, so it is best that you keep track of which colonies you are trying to bridge the gap with, and proceed from there.

Tracking Affinity Levels

The easiest way to keep track of things when it comes to affinity levels is through the Affinity Chart. It displays the party’s affinity or reputation, with a given area of the world as well as the affinity between NPCs. It also helps establish the conflicts between colonies and the relationships of people staying there, alongside brief profiles of the residents.
