The Jiban (羁绊, Jībàn, 'Bond') system governs the narrative and gameplay relationship between the player protagonist Child of the Primal Flow and each Resonance (共鸣) hero. Bond levels rise through spending time with the hero in combat, completing their story quests, and engaging with their Dream Realm content.
Bond experience accumulates through:
Using the hero in combat as a Resonance slot
Completing hero-specific main-story and side quests
Clearing the hero's Dream Realm dungeon
Participating in limited-time hero-featured events like the Chapter 1 Xi Shi unlock or the BP-tied Jialuo events
Giving hero-specific gifts when available through shop or event rewards
Tencent has not published the exact maximum bond level or the per-tier XP requirements in a consolidated format as of April 15, 2026. Community guides describe the system qualitatively rather than numerically. Specific numbers should be verified in-game before being cited in other articles.
Because players equip two Resonances at once and hot-swap between them, bond management directly shapes gameplay. A high-bond Resonance delivers stronger skill damage than a low-bond one, which incentivizes players to commit to a two-hero main rotation rather than rotating through all 11 launch heroes evenly.
Method | Bond XP Source |
|---|---|
Combat Use | Using the hero in combat as a Resonance slot accumulates passive XP per encounter; longer fights generate more XP than short clears. |
Story Quests | Completing hero-specific main-story and side quests grants the largest single XP injections; these are gated by main-story progression. |
Clearing a hero's Dream Realm dungeon awards a structured XP block tied to the hero, with diminishing returns on repeated clears. | |
Limited Events | Hero-featured limited events (the Chapter 1 Xi Shi unlock, the BP-tied Jialuo battle pass) award event-locked XP that is not available outside the window. |
Gifts | Hero-specific gifts available through shop or event rewards grant a small bond XP boost; supplementary, not primary. |
Unlock Type | Detail |
|---|---|
Story Chapters | New hero-specific narrative arcs (e.g., Dongfang Yao's Cloud Fall Anomaly and Stellar Awakening arcs). |
Dream Realm Access | Hero-specific Dream Realm dungeon access unlocks at qualifying bond tiers; the Dream Realm event for that hero may also gate access independently. |
Visual / Voice Flourishes | Higher-bond pair-ups unlock unique dialogue lines, idle animations, and pair-up cinematics in social and combat contexts. |
Combat Bonuses | Higher bond levels increase that hero's skill damage and effect strength when equipped as a Resonance. |
Cosmetic Fragments | Unique cosmetic fragments and dialogue options unlock in social hubs as bond climbs. |

The two-hero rotation pattern aligns with the way Ningwu (Signature Weapon System) upgrade materials are rate-limited at S0 launch.
