Dot Bonding
Every Dot begins its adventures as a Baby. By interacting with your Dot you will see it grow from Baby stage through to Adult and from there you can increase the Bond you and your Dot share by further interaction such as completing Desires, Socialising and other activities.
As the Bond between Keeper and Dot grows, you, as the Keeper of the Dot, will receive Keeper XP as a Reward. The currently available Dot Bond Levels and Rewards are shown in the table below:
MAX DOT BOND LvL: At the time of writing (March 2024) the maximum Level of Bond you can have with your Dot is 'Soulmates'.
If you do not pay attention to your Dot for an extended period of time, the Bond XP it has will start to decay (approximately 100 Bond XP per day of inactivity) until it reaches zero. Your Dot will not drop down a Bond Level, so if they were 'Pals' before, they will remain as 'Pals'.
Once you and your Dot achieve 'Soulmates' status, that Level will never decay, no matter how long you ignore them. Interacting with them further will not advance the Bond Level as it can grow no further.
