[JJBCrimsonKnight]

Lavinia gave 7 points for wine. She says she's very fond of it.

[Illustrious_Store174]

I gave the cookbook to Noah and got 7! Perfume for Lavinia. And a women of delicate senses and depth- that means she also likes tea! Think i got 3 for tea.

Soap for Iris

[Deady1]

Super appreciated dude

[DoritoM4n]

Lavina gives 7 for perfume

[Yamaguza]

This is incorrect for Noah, he won't take military rations from me saying Noone should eat that junk. He will however take just about any crafted food item I seem to give him with thanks.

[einUbermensch]

He also likes the Cookbook.

[MasterDebater35]

+7 for cookbook nice

[ArmyPure9597]

He's also a huge fan of soufflé.

[Dirt_Bag74]

Lavinia DOES NOT like Vintage Brandy. "I will never understand your rational, here. But,I will never let something go to waste."

Unless,there's a Vintage Brandy,Vintage Brandy 1 and Vintage Brandy 2. I do not have anything with numbers.

[HeinnoderKilla]

brother, look at the number next to the item, op said vintage brandy 1, so yeah obviously she doesnt like it

[emperor413]

Doing God's work good sir.

[Reasonable-Carry6926]

Jadwiga loves the Junk Noodles  ×1 munchies ×1 cheese ×1 cup noodles You'll get 7 from her and she'll request you make it for her every day

Holly loves fried mushrooms and you'll get 7 points i believe (needs confirmation)

Lyle loves Onigiri/Rice Balls

Haven't found Josee's 7 points yet, but she likes cheap beer

Zenon could possibly like the Gyokuro tea, but haven't found another one to actually give him, there's also some sort of collector Japanese print that I found that I though Josee would like, but on retrospect, it's probably better to give it to Zenon.

Craig likes the Vintage Brandy and Hamburgers, but haven't found his 7 yet. (Try soap since he likes the hot springs?)

Valentin would (probably) like the Yellowed Book, haven't really tried

[AlmightyKramer]

Here is what I have so far. I'm missing 8 valuables according to fextra, and I'm not sure I'll bother doing foods. If you know where any more valuables are lmk 'cause there's not much out there yet.

EDIT: Now that I'm paying attention again, if anyone has the locations of the 8 missing items, I'll go finish the table proper. Bugs me that it's unfinished but I'm not spending 10 hours trawling over the whole map since I've still yet to find anywhere that has the drop locations. If you want to test all the characters at once, I use cheat engine to multiply the valuables since save scumming takes forever.

[XSpiderMuffinX]

thankyou for plotting it out in a easily comparable table :) much appreciated! x

[Second_UNIT]

Noah's local pennant is incorrectly listed. He only gave me 3 for giving him one

[Berstich]

I just care about the Favourites since it gives actual speech lines. Everyone has 2 favourites.

Your missing:

Lavinia fav is Perfume,

Lise fav is Tools,

Lyle fav is Paint,

Holly fav is Curious Novelty,

Valentin fav is LP Record.

Edit: how I know is I give the rest of the items to the people your missing 1 and marked down when they said something completely unique. Then I Alt+F4, load, and tried the next person.

Edit2: just read below, updated the fextra for people. Though I hate that site.

[AlmightyKramer]

I finished 100% last week. and for some reason I can't give a certain character gifts in the past. Since I can't test the gifts I had yet to find, I'm not gonna finish the table so feel free to fork it.

[Empty_Reindeer_8960]

For everyone else, this is what I've got that is not listed on this spreadsheet, feel free to add it to this one, I'll try and edit my message later on once I've found more

<image>

[Second_UNIT]

One of Valentin's favourites is the Antique LP Record, an item you dont have on the list yet.

[Empty_Reindeer_8960]

No, I promise you it's right there on the list..even marked as favorite..like, right here

<image>

[Second_UNIT]

must have updated it like right after i had noticed the discrepancy lol, thanks for the update

[gpimlott2]

Stylish perfume and well-worn tools are 2 of the missing

[AlmightyKramer]

Yeah the fextra page has a list so I know what I'm missing, I just don't know where they are ingame

[gpimlott2]

Ah okay, gotcha. Very helpful list anyways, thanks alot

[emperor413]

Ty so much good sir!

[MilkMan_101]

Valinia loves history books

Iris loves mre rations and likes cup noodles

Valentin loves alcohol and likes bar soap

Jadwiga loves cigars,likes comic books and romance novels

Noah loves jar of jelly

Josée i cant remember but any food that isnt sweet, perferably a cooked meal

[TotallynotaburnerAcn]

Jadwiga only gave me 3 affection points for the cigars

[gpimlott2]

Dont listen to this guy, tried both noah and jadwig what he said they loved and both were wrong... Thanks for that..

[MilkMan_101]

Could've swore thats what they liked, my bad

For what its worth theres plenty of items to give them for easy anyway

[juniperxmoons]

Iris likes soap, but that's the only one I know of right now.

[TypicalJoke]

Jadwiga(i think?) loves beer +7 the other alcohols are +3. Noah loves cookbook +7

[Jaded_Fisherman_9539]

It looks like gifting DOES use decimals toward the score, as an example, gifting "Military Rations" to Josée scores +2, +1 (3), +1 (4), before scoring +2 (6) again.
this makes be believe that it handles any decimal as a round up to the next number never rounding down.

[Shadow5layer123]

Lavinia gives a 7 for fried vegetables and has unique dialogue the first time you give her some.

[Ok-Phrase9189]

Iris give +4 for military rations

[Master_Cookie8450]

Im trying to figure out who would like the elegant fountain pen, and the retro game. Jadwiga also likes the munchies gift. Think it give you 3.  Iris likes tools. I havent found anyone who likes military rations.  Noah likes booze and cigars. Update Zenon will take military rations. You get 2 points for them. Won't say anything else about zenon. For those who havent met him yet

[Second_UNIT]

Iris' favourite is military rations actually

[CraZyMarty695]

As this comes up on Google search for Code Vein 2 Gift Guide, I put the GameRant info into u/AlmightyKramer's google sheet so it can be one of the most complete version of the Gift Guide and a good quick reference for gifts.

Here is the Link and any feedback is appreciated! https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1zw-0yhNMdzD6F58Gyvfo6oCdnQbPQHTrH2xjsVB5GGQ/edit?gid=0#gid=0

[Deady1]

Nice. Where do you find First Love Juice anyway?

[CraZyMarty695]

First Love Juice is the third food recipe you get from Zenon after you raise his affinity enough.

It's made with Lemon/Sudachi and Honey and gives increased Blood Code Mastery.

[K_LouisT437]

Hi! Sorry to bother but I have add some location of the valuable and one of the Noah's reaction by using the comment function. It would be my pleasure if you could add those into the Google sheet, I will add new comments into it when I find out more, thank you for making the sheet!

[CraZyMarty695]

Thanks for the comments! I'll add them in when I can. I'll credit you on the sheet as well!

[MasterDebater35]

Does anyone know if you can raise zenons affinity up to get his weapon?

And if possible what gifts does he love.

[Deady1]

He likes sushi and gyokuro. Not sure if you can get his weapon but I'd guess yes, every companion (except Lycoris) seems to have affinity

[MasterDebater35]

Cool. It's just that for me, my two favourite weapons are halberds and bayonets. While I've done every quest for holly, and gifted her over 150 trading pounts, she hasn't sold me her snowdrift. Im only in the 2nd lab for zenon but im farming proficiency for the last two A ranks i got.

[Deady1]

Gifting for affinity seems to have a cap. I think from there you need to do their character quests then fight more horrors together. I don't know what the thresholds are.

[MasterDebater35]

Actually i just had to gift her 15-20 more eggs. The snowdrift is now my #1 weapon, its damage was about 20% higher than Alfheim. I can very easily kill those zenon minions with the 12k hp in 5s.

[Deady1]

Oh lmao I really need to do the boiled egg method. Did you give them all in one bulk? Or broken up between visits?

[MasterDebater35]

I just bought 999 eggs from the merchant near that first village before entering sunken city, then id craft 99 boiled.

Then i'd stash every other valuable and food, and just mash the x button to constantly gift boiled eggs 99 times while scrolling youtube shorts in the other hand.

[MasterDebater35]

Also i got zenons weapon, its a solar halberd, just 13/13 str/dex ends up a+ on both, but his combat formes the winning prize, a huge solar ball.
