Code Vein Valuables Guide: Find out how to maximize your Trading Points with these items
Besides having them as AI partners when you explore its world, Code Vein allows you to interact with all the NPC in your hub by giving them Valuables. These are essentially gifts you can give the characters in order to get Trading Points, which are character specific: if you give a Valuable to a character, you will get Trading Points to use only with that character. As such, every character has different preferences.
During your time with your game you will find many of these Valuables simply by playing, but you will also find items called Old World Material that you can exchange for certain Valuables with an NPC located right next to the mistle you unlock after beating the first boss. This merchant has a very limited list of valuables: Fragrant Tea, Local Pennant, Flower Seeds, Antique LP Record, Custom Gun Parts, Protein Powder, Chocolate Garlic Flakes and Blood Bead Candy. All the other Valuables are found by exploring.
Here we bring you a list of which Valuables each character likes the most. Valuables can give 1, 2, 3 or 5 Trading Points or if a character doesn’t like the item then they will simply not take it and tell you to give it to someone else. This list only includes Valuables that are worth 2 or more points; if an item is not listed under a character then it’s either worth 1 point for them or the character doesn’t like it.

What to get with your Trading Points
Now that you know how to maximize your Trading Points, you might be wondering what you should use them for. Every character offers a variety of items that include consumable healings, a variety of boosters and, more importantly, unique weapons and upgrade materials. The weapons are the same the character uses when they partner with you, and most of them have unique perks. The upgrade materials are Chromes, which allow you to Transform a piece of equipment in order to alter its properties to, generally, make it have more synergy with the Blood Code you get from the character that gives you said Chrome. The only way to get these specific Chromes is by trading, while some of the more general ones like the ones that add elemental damage can be found by exploring.
For example, Yakumo offers Atlas Chrome, which increases an equipment’s stats but also its weight, since his Blood Code has high weight capacity, while the material Mia offers improves the drain rate of a weapon at the cost of attack power, pairing well with her Blood Code and the gun she offers. These upgrade materials can still be used in any equipment, regardless of Blood Code, so if any of them fit your build they should be the a high priority for spending Trading Points.
