Which Octopath Traveler Character Should Be Your Bff?

Octopath Traveler has no shortage of captivating characters, ranging from the mighty eight to cool NPCs. While we’ve all seen the guides about how to pick the strongest party, it’s important not to forget the power of friendship. It’s nice to have a powerful party. However, it’s even better when you’re adventuring with your best mates. We have a guide to your new Octopath Traveler BFFs.

Which Octopath Traveler Should Be Your BFF – H’aanit

H’aanit is the type of friend that runs Iron Man marathons for fun. Forget hanging out for a boozy brunch; she’s probably counting her macros to stay in tip-top, beast-taming shape. Hiking and camping are her ideal weekend activities. If you like venturing off the beaten path and hunting for your own food when you’re out of town, she’s the best girl to do it with. H’aanit is also incredibly loyal, and she’ll be your friend for life. Hell, she jumped right to her mentor’s aid after over a year of radio silence. Flighty, fairweather friends exist but she isn’t one of them. All H’aanit really wants in return is someone who really understands that we all return to the earth one day. If you’ve got a healthy respect for nature and for independent women, this is a friendship match made in heaven.

Which Octopath Traveler Should Be Your BFF – Alfyn

Alfyn is a bit like the friend equivalent of a golden retriever. He’s probably most at home doing what you feel like doing, as long as it gets him out of his small town. It doesn’t take a lot to entertain him, so long as he’s got his mates around. Picking flowers? Why not. Lopping the head off a hulking snake? Even better. There’s no real rhyme or reason to Alfyn’s desires when he’s with friends, he just enjoys the act of spending valuable time with you. However, don’t chalk him down as no fun. He’s clearly a charmer, and if he can talk his way into a free hotel room then he can definitely help you talk your way into some pants. Plus, his whole shtick is homebrewing substances. If you’re wanting a mate that’s a responsibly by day and an absolute unit by night, then look no further than your local apothecary.
