Affinity

Each playable characters have "Affinity" that can be raised through gift-giving!

5 gifts can be given to each character every day.

With each affinity level gained, players can unlock rewards.

## Obtaining Gifts

Gifts are drawn at random from **Doki Doki Presents**, which can be crafted in the crafting facility or themselves drawn from friend boxes, Arena **reward boxes**, or occasionally from the gold gacha.

To obtain ONE present from crafting:

* x50 certificates + x50 alloy ingot + 15 core module (medium),
* x50 tome of secrets + 30 core module (medium),
* x20 shard (green) + x20 shard (blue) + x20 shard (red) + x5 core module (high),
* x20 ore (green) + x20 ore (blue) + x20 ore (red) + x5 core module (high)

Crafting presents with the first 2 recipes is a nice way to get rid of excess tomes/certificates/ingots. The other 2 recipes require the somewhat rare core module (high) as well as ores/shards that are commonly used in the lategame to advance/awaken characters.

\*Approximate value of materials unknown. Drop rates from daily quest may be a good basis, if those are known.

The draw rate of Doki Doki presents from the gold gacha is 1.92%, ~1/52 draws. This puts the approximate cost of a present from the gold gacha at 52,000 gold, not including the sanity cost of doing 260 pulls for 5 presents a day to cap out the daily present limit.

## Gifts

There are 15 total gifts:

*Normal = Gray Icon, Rare = Golden Icon, Super Rare = Purple. **\***Limited Item that can only obtained from Valentine's Day Gift Box or special login awards.*

## Affinity Gains from Gifts

Because each character can only be given 5 gifts per day, players may want to look for the best gifts possible to give to their waifus every day.

Gift values vary by rarity and how much they are liked by the character you gift them to.

 Rare
 Fuuma Plushie

*\*2 hearts = x1.5 base value, 3 hearts = x2.5 base value. Fuuma Plushie **always** has base value of 100.*

For information on 2-heart gifts, characters have a list of favored (non-1-heart) gifts listed in the affinity section of their character page, under the sub-section "Favorite Gifts."

## Rewards

As you give gifts to characters, you raise their affinity level starting from 0 up to 10. Each affinity level-up unlocks a reward. Each tier grants the same rewards no matter the character, except a bonus tier with rank 10 affinity.

Affinity Level Rewards

 4
 5

 9
 10

At affinity level 10, characters also give additional bonuses. These bonuses are active **IF the character at affinity level 10 is selected in your main lobby.** Each character has a different effect.

## Strategy

\*This is just theory based on the editor's own thoughts

*I don't know if I should keep this or not. Pretty funny though.*

Forget the emotes and the item rewards, the level 10 affinity bonuses are bonkers. Therefore, the strategically optimal thing to do is to focus all of your gifts on a single character and rush them to level 10. Gifts are too goddamn rare in this game, the amount of time spent gathering optimal gifts for each character and saving them for who you want will cause you to lose out on those level 10 bonuses for a long time. Once you have your 3 lobby characters giving you these affinity bonuses, you can take your time getting the rest of your characters to level 10 because you are already optimizing your level 10 affinity bonuses, which are capped by the maximum number of characters you can place in your lobby (3).

This reinforces a character-focused playstyle of the game, where you throw everything you can on your favorite waifus regardless of nonsense like math and strategy.

Once you have sufficiently satisfied your waifus, you can start optimizing for gift value to unlock rewards like gems, crystal kits, etc.
