Forging Bonds/Script
Overview
First-run Forging Bonds events typically last for two weeks; rerun events typically last for one week, with friendship goals and reward plateaus roughly halved accordingly. The goal is to boost friendship with specified event characters through battling. The amount of friendship earned can be increased by wearing specified bonus accessories, some of which are earned throughout the event.
There are three difficulties of battle: Beginner, Intermediate and Advanced, with the amount of friendship earned increasing with the difficulty. The player's team of four units faces a random four units on a random map.
