All Followers Guide
Von HayateButler
This guide provides all the important information you'll need regarding all Followers, such as ability bonuses and bond rank up requirements. The schedule aspect is fairly lenient in Metaphor: ReFantazio, so while this will help with planning ahead to max out all Follower Bonds, it isn't strictly necessary. Do also keep in mind that there may be story spoilers if you read too far beyond your current progress, so I recommend finishing your first playthrough at your own pace before consulting this for more details, especially since the best dialogue responses do not play a big a role (it only rewards the player with more MAG).

Introduction
The Followers system is essentially Metaphor: ReFantazio's adaptation of the Social Link/Confidant system from the Persona series, so if you've played any mainline Persona game, this should be easy to understand.

Each Follower has a maximum Bond Rank of 8, and they represent the bonds the Wandering Boy (the protagonist) has forged throughout his journey. As they're deepened, he is able to unlock and further strengthen the power of Archetypes, as well as gain access to other abilities and perks for the party.

But where Social Links mainly utilize a point system in which a rank up is guaranteed once the point requirements are met, deepening bonds with Followers is done through story progression, fulfilling certain requests, or simply by spending time with them.

It's worth noting that there is generally a 1 day wait period between being able to progress each Follower's next bond rank, so you are incentivised to work on multiple bonds together instead of focusing on one at a time.

Lastly, when you are in the middle of a story-fixed travel, you cannot progress Follower Bonds (with the exception of Neuras) even if they are supposed to be available while traveling on the Gauntlet Runner. They instead have unique hang out events or dialogues.

Here's a table listing how much MAG you earn per MAG Note received when responding to a Follower with a favorable dialogue option:

Oh huh, thanks for informing me of that. Let me make a note of it to double check.
Agent Lyoko 13. Nov. um 19:35 
Not certain if this is exclusive to NG+, but Heismay's Rank 8 is not required to be after getting Eupha. He was available late July for me in NG+ for Rank 8, but the wording changed - in my first playthrough (post-Eupha) he mentions her fashioning the necklace, but if she's not recruited Heismay's sentence is "I've fashioned myself a necklace, made to keep them ever close and safe." . (I do have both the save file an the image to corroborate this, if necessary.)

That's related to a story event that occurs after September 24.

What means "is ready to acquire a new Heroic Embodiment." can please somebody tell me?
HayateButler  [Autor] 17. Okt. um 6:25 
You need 15 different Archetypes studied, so if you have Seeker studied 3x across your party members, that still only counts as 1 Archetype.
Zorant 16. Okt. um 22:41 
I have 9 basic archtypes unlocked right now (12 since I have 3 advanced ones one three different characters.) but its not saying I have studied 15 different archtypes. Is it not unlock for More when I do this across different characters?

You should be able to talk to the guy at some point. Just keep checking on Gallica / use the Follower menu and look for the handshake icon that indicates you can proceed with the next rank.

Correct. As long as you meet the requirements to start the bond event, the dialogue choices you choose during them don’t matter.
