After a mission is cleared, the Friend Character has a chance of rewarding the player with [[Trade Items#Extend Fragments | Extend Fragments]] or a Photon Art that character is equipped with.

The friend character's Level is automatically set to the equivalent of the player character's level. Their stats are scaled downwards or upwards accordingly. If the friend character becomes too low level to use their weapons (including a weapon that's extended from a lower level one), that weapon will be replaced with a generic brand weapon in the same category. Its element and element percentage will be kept (unless the new weapon is elemental locked, such as the [[Crimson]]). These weapons will be upgraded as the player level increases, until the line of generic brand products end (usually at Lv100) or the friend character is high enough level to uses their original weapon. | |||
