In Unicorn Overlord, rapport refers to the level of bond among characters in Alain's army. This concept is crucial as it determines how characters interact with Alain and his fellow comrades. By enhancing these bonds, players can unlock new dialogues that provide deeper understanding into the characters' relationships and also, and most importantly, improve their effectiveness in battle.
Unicorn Overlord: 7 Beginner Mistakes To Avoid
Anyone who's jumping into Unicorn Overlord for the very first time should definitely take these tips on board to help out in those first few hours.
Improving rapport among characters in Unicorn Overlord leads to significant benefits during combat when characters with high rapport levels are grouped together in the same squad. These strengthened bonds result in enhanced stats, making increasing rapport a key strategy for overcoming the various challenges encountered throughout Fevrith. This guide will specifically address how to boost rapport by giving gifts, a primary method among the several available for strengthening relationships with Unicorn Overlord’s numerous recruitable characters.
How to Give Gifts to Increase Rapport in Unicorn Overlord
In Unicorn Overlord, you can use three methods to boost rapport. First, characters naturally gain a slight increase in rapport with their squadmates following victorious battles. Secondly, a more substantial boost in rapport is awarded when characters share meals at Taverns scattered across the kingdoms.
Lastly, giving gifts is another effective way to enhance rapport. You can give gifts to units you’ve assigned as guards in towns you've freed across the kingdoms in Unicorn Overlord. This approach specifically strengthens the relationship between Alain and the characters within his army, serving as an effective means to improve bonds with characters that are not frequently used.
Unicorn Overlord: How to Station Guards
Stationing guards in Unicorn Overlord can help fund your team and provide additional resources. Here's how you can do it.
This quest introduces the basic mechanics of stationing guards, an essential aspect of gift-giving in Unicorn Overlord. Gifts can only be given to characters stationed as guards in cities you've completely restored. This is detailed in the side quest “Rebuilding Fevrith,” where completing deliveries to restore the town unlocks various services, including the ability to assign a guard.
After completing “The Local Guardsman" and learning how to assign a guard, proceed to the nearest liberated town, which is likely Ouvrir Harbor. Here, you can station your first guard. To station a guard in Unicorn Overlord and enable them to receive gifts, follow these steps:
- Travel to any town you have liberated and fully restored.
- Choose the "Station a Guard" option from the town services menu.
- Pick any of your units and assign them to guard the town.
Units assigned as guards in a town can still participate in battles.
