Gacha rules, sparks

A double spark with zero rate-ups pulled
  • The rates are 3% for a 3★. The rate-up student is 0.7% in that 3%. For full details: click the Rates Info button on the gacha page.
  • BA uses the spark system. A spark here is doing 200 pulls (24,000 pyroxene worth) and trading the recruitment points for a featured banner student.
  • There are only 2 guarantees; a 2★ or better in every multi pull (10 pulls at a time), and the spark.
  • Recruitment points never carry over, they convert to small keystones (crafting shards) when banners rotate. You can spend 23,880 pyro and still get nothing from 199 pulls.

Best practices

  • Only pull if you can spark (rerolling is the exception). Recruitment points never carry over.
  • Do multi pulls (10 pulls at a time) for the guaranteed 2* or higher. More eligma & elephs.
  • Set thresholds for when to save or spark if you pull early. Consult your pyro planner too.
    • This is personal preference and can vary depending on the importance of that student’s dupes.
    • E.g. 140 pulls or less, save. 170+ pulls, spark. In between…?
    • E.g. Are they a Striker dps? Dupes are important for extreme/insane. Are they a Special support? Dupes are generally less/not important. See Midokuni’s banners tab for star/UE and dupe recommendations.
  • For hardcore vets:
    • If you intend to spark and want both banner girls (e.g. to save eligma); pull on the banner you want dupes of (more), and use the spark to claim the other student. A dupe of girl A on banner B is not rate-up.
1,600 pulls for S. Hoshino on Mika’s banner.
  • Save one spark for every festival, which appears to be every 6 months.
    • Festivals have double 3* rates (same rate-up though). You’re likely to get more students and eligma.
    • Even if the festival student is “bad”, they’re limited and there’s no other way to spark them in the future. You just have to get lucky from a spook in future festivals.
    • One spark per festival is good. It’s safer to guarantee another student you want than to gamble.
