Tolerance is one of the five Royal Virtues featured in Metaphor: ReFantazio. Similar to the other four virtues, you can enhance its level to boost your Follower Bond and unlock new dialogue options as well as character-specific side quests. While this enhancement doesn’t alter the conclusion of the main storyline, increasing your Tolerance and other Royal Virtues reveals new paths in Follower narratives and can even affect your dealings with NPCs throughout Euchronia.
You can earn Tolerance points through specific quests and minor decisions, such as politely declining changes to Gallica’s Redgrass-Roasted Bidou recipe. Each Follower in Metaphor: ReFantazio can help you boost certain Royal Virtues, and Heismay is your go-to character for learning about Tolerance. You can elevate your Tolerance rank by spending time with him or taking part in other rewarding activities, like assisting Fabienne at the Hushed Honeybee Inn or immersing yourself in books during your travels.
How to Enhance Tolerance
Earn Points Through Quests and Activities
Just as you can earn Wisdom points through certain challenges in Metaphor: ReFantazio, Tolerance and other Royal Virtues can be strengthened by engaging in tasks that require using these skills. According to The Game Looters on YouTube, you can identify activities and quests that will boost your points by looking for the heart-in-hands icon as you explore new areas.
With many activities available from the outset, here’s a detailed overview of tasks that can earn you Tolerance points in Metaphor: ReFantazio, as highlighted by GameRant:

All Tolerance Levels
Understanding Each Rank
Like other Royal Virtues in Metaphor: ReFantazio, Tolerance comprises five ranks to achieve as you accumulate points. You begin at the first rank, Inflexible, which reflects the protagonist’s capacity to demonstrate patience and consider different perspectives in various situations. With careful decision-making and some patience of your own, you can refine this skill and ascend through the ranks, which include:
- Tolerance Rank I: Inflexible
- Tolerance Rank II: Open-Minded
- Tolerance Rank III: Generous
- Tolerance Rank IV: Benevolent
- Tolerance Rank V: Savior
As you advance in rank, you will discover that your improved Tolerance effectively unlocks new opportunities in your Metaphor: ReFantazio gameplay. Not only does this enhance your bond with Maria, but it’s also wise to revisit quests and tasks that were previously unavailable when you held a lower rank.
