sot_db for your Twitch chat
A Sea of Thieves lookup bot backed by this database. Viewers ask, the bot answers in one line with a link to the full page. Free, and it only speaks when asked.
What viewers can do
!sotdb ghost pistol !sotdb comm hunter of the shrouded ghost !sotdb set ashen dragon !sotdb drops !sotdb help
Any commendation, cosmetic, set or milestone by name. Misspellings and renamed items resolve; a miss gets a search link. With the channel points reward, viewers type the same thing into the reward's text box instead.
Two ways to add it
Chat command only no login needed
- From your streamer account, open twitch.tv/sot_db and type !sotdb join in chat.
- The bot confirms and is in your channel within seconds.
It always joins the channel of the account that typed the command. To remove it, type !sotdb leave in either chat as the broadcaster or a mod.
Chat command + channel points Affiliate / Partner
- Click the button below while logged into Twitch as the streamer.
- Approve two permissions: read redemptions and manage the one reward the bot creates.
- A “Search SoTDB” reward appears in your channel points at 10 points, with a text box.
A redemption is answered in chat and marked fulfilled; no match means it is cancelled and the points come back automatically. Not an affiliate yet? The same button still adds the chat command.
Add with channel points
Add to my channelYou will be sent to Twitch and straight back here. Nothing is posted to your chat until someone asks.
Customising the reward
After it is created, edit it in your Creator Dashboard like any other reward: cost, name, icon and colour are all yours to change. The bot tracks the reward by its id, not its name.
Two things to leave alone. Do not delete it: if it is gone, click “Add to my channel” again and the bot recreates it. And keep “Skip Reward Requests Queue” off, because refunds only work on queued requests; the bot switches it back off if it finds it on. Your queue stays empty anyway: every request is resolved within a second, and anything missed while the bot was restarting is cleared within ten minutes.
Twitch's cooldown is shared by all viewers, not per viewer, so keep it short. The bot already limits each viewer itself and refunds the extras.
Make sure the bot can talk
In an open chat there is nothing to do. If your chat has restrictions, the bot's replies can be dropped silently by Twitch:
- Link blocking, follower-only, sub-only or slow mode: type /mod sot_db in your chat. Replies contain links, and mods bypass all of these.
- Verified phone or email required to chat: also tick “exempt moderators” under Chat verification in your moderation settings. A mod badge alone does not bypass verification.
If Twitch refuses the bot in your channel, the reason shows on this page once you are connected.
Channels using it: 11 of 50. The limit keeps replies fast for everyone and grows with the server.
