The Friendship System measures your characters' relationship with another character. The system is based on Friendship Points, which is the quantitative measure of your relationship at the current time.
Gaining Friendship Points (FXP) can be done by team busting, netbattles, or non-combat interactions. Tandem busting is the most basic way to gain points. Battles award a flat amount of FXP per battle, dictated by Net Area with bonuses for consecutive battles and battling in higher Net Tiers.
Quote (FXP Per Battle)
Low Area: ACDC/Kotobuki/Yoka/Electown/Okuden (Base 2 FXP Rate)
Mid Area: Netopia/Netfrica/Beach/SciLab/Dentech (Base 3 FXP Rate)
High Area: NetVegas/Hades/Sharo/NAXA/Yumland (Base 4 FXP Rate)
+1 Base FXP per consecutive battle
x1.5 multiplier for Rogue battles
x2 multiplier for Chaos battles
x3 multiplier for Undernet battles
+3 post-multiplier bonus for Battle 5, 10, 15, and 20 Minibosses
At the end of each battle, players will be rewarded with FXP based on the events that transpired. The moderator will tell you with who and how much FXP you gain. Note that FXP between two Navis is always the same amount, and must be kept track of in your signature.
- Certain actions can merit extra FXP. These actions would be determined by the moderator's own judgment, and should be based on an action AND reaction (or a pair of posts).
- Interaction between operators can result in 1 FXP per pair of quality back and forth posts.
- Noncombat interaction between Navis can result in 1 or 2 FXP per pair of quality back and forth posts.
- When both Navis and Operators are present for interaction, the result can be up to 3 FXP per pair of quality back and forth posts.
- To get FXP from Real World threads, use the Real World FXP tallying thread.
Using FXP
Crosses are earned based on FXP. Once you achieve a certain amount of points, you may apply for the Cross. Gaining the Cross removes no points.
Quote (FXP needed for each Cross level)
Level 1 : 30
Level 2 : 70
Level 3 : 150
Level 4 : 250
Level 5 : 400
Applying for a Cross
ExampleMan and AverageMan's Friendship is at 30 FXP. They apply for a level 1 Cross, which requires at least 30 FXP. It is approved, no points are "used up", so they still retain their FXP. Once they attain 70 FXP, they can apply for a level 2 Cross.

- Activating (or deactivating) a Cross uses one action.
- While Crossed, your element is overridden to the element of the Navi you are Crossing with. You can choose whether or not to override your Subtype with the Subtype of the Navi you are Crossing with, but this decision is permanent and must be stated when registering your Cross.
- Bonus damage from Crosses does not stack on multi-hits.
- The bonus damage from the Cross overrides the bonus damage your Navi would get from it's own level and Element.
- There is no limit on how many Crosses you can have.
- Each Cross can only be used once every three battles.
- There is no turn limit on how long a Cross lasts inside one battle.
Faction Crosses
Crosses of your same faction gain the benefit of reduced requirements of FXP for each cross. That is, if you are in the NetPolice, any other NP member cross that you've worked towards (player or NPC) will require less FXP to level up.
Quote (Faction FXP needed for each Cross level)
Level 1 : 25
Level 2 : 60
Level 3 : 120
Level 4 : 210
Level 5 : 320
