Please explain me
There are 3 banners: Standard, limited character, and limited lightcone. There’s also the newbie banner, but it doesn’t matter for this explanation. Standard, character, and lightcone banners all have separate pities. However, both characters banners (Acheron and Luocha) share pity. Pity on banners never resets, even if the character does. (Jingliu/Aventurine is next. If you have pity from Acheron/Luocha, it’ll count here.)
Before we start, a few terms:
- Hard pity: The point at which something (ie a 5*) is guaranteed
- Soft pity: The point at which the chance for something starts to increase
Starting with the standard banner, hard pity is 90 and soft pity is 74 for 5*s. Base 5* chance is 0.6%, base chance for a 4* is 5.1%. 4*s have soft pity at 9 and hard pity at 10. Now I’m not 100% sure on the next part, but I’m 90% sure it’s right: If you pull 2 characters, then the next is a lightcone. If you pull a character and a lightcone, the next is a character. At 300 pulls, you get to chose a 5* character out of the 7 on the banner.
The character banner is almost exactly the same, except all 5*s are characters. However, you only have a 50% chance of getting the banner character. However, if the last 5* you got on the banner was not a banner character, then the next 5* is guaranteed to be the banner 5*. Additionally, there are 3 rate up 4*s. 50% of 4* drops will be any one of those 3.
The lightcone banner is a bit different. Hard pity is 80 and soft pity is 65 for 5*s. The base 5* chance is also 0.8%. 4* pities are the same, but the base chance is 6.6%. The same guarantee system works her, except you have a 75% chance of getting something on banner.
