[[File:Shoshino.png|thumb|S. Hoshino Festival Banner]]
 
==== What and when is the festival banner? There's 100 free pulls? ====
The festival banner '''doubles the pull rate for 3* units (6%)''' and features [[Hoshino (Swimsuit)]]. She's a limited must pull support. [[Wakamo]] can also drop (limited), but you can only spark S. Hoshino. The rates are 0.7% for S. Hoshino and 0.3% for Wakamo.
<br>
Line 10:
The 100 free pulls start after S. Hoshino leaves, and [[Izuna (Swimsuit)|S. Izuna]] & [[Chise (Swimsuit)|S. Chise]] swap in. These accumulate, but they ''will expire''. Both students are limited. Go for S. Izuna for meta.
 
==== Who do I reroll for? How do I do it? ====
[[File:BA Reroll.jpg|thumb|Reroll Guide. Add SHoshino to must pull if rerolling during the festival banner]]
A good enough account is S. Hoshino + Iori or Hibiki + some essential 2*s (Iori is farmable). Or S. Hoshino, no Iori/Hibiki, but a bunch of good 3*s (see the reroll point guide). You can always aim for more, but keep in mind the festival banner only lasts about 5 days. There's also ''fifty five 3*s in the banner'', so your chances at specific units are very slim. Try to do 10 pulls at a time to guarantee a 2* unit.
Line 20:
2*s are not worth restarting accounts for, you'll get them all eventually.
 
=== Should I spark S. Hoshino more than once? ===
The general advice is 1 spark on S. Hoshino, and save for others you need. Score chasers want [[Unique weapons|UE30+]], while 3* is good enough for everyone else, even for insane raids. More stars is comfier. If she can’t tank, you bring a dedicated tank with her. If you grab S. Hoshino early, you can consider saving to spark others below.
 
==== Who’s meta and worth sparking? ====
Must pulls: [[Hoshino (Swimsuit)]], [[Ako]] and [[Himari]]. You can see how prominent they are in [https://imgur.com/a/dD6xLRi JP's top 10].
<br>
Highly recommended: [[Izuna (Swimsuit)|S. Izuna]], [[Nodoka (Hot Spring)|O. Nodoka]], [[Koharu]], B. [[Karin (Bunny Girl)|Karin]], [[Arisu|Aris]], [[Shun]] (pvp), [[Mika]], etc.
 
=== Why these units? When will they come? ===
See [https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1BO-Uh_CsAOIetPjrNyFy9-7r1a4RAtVwK135bBC3hzM/ Midokuni’s guide] & the [https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1VSzm_ioCt2AdRvkfL9HKNNZSbyslayVERXxVxR6nzh4/ Raid Tier list] for why, and Midokuni's and [[Banner_List|JP’s banners]] for when (can also use the [https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/u/3/d/16cSul5YqyqXDGNKUsthhgSlP0cuMgX4xZ572ecjEIvg/ pyro planner]).
 
==== Can I pull my favorites instead? ====
Absolutely. Club & friend borrows make raiding easier, but spark S. Hoshino, Ako, and Himari too for a comfier gaming life.
Find good clubs & friends in the recruitment channels on [https://discord.gg/CdMwVakE discord].
 
=== How can I plan my sparks? ===
Use the [https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/16cSul5YqyqXDGNKUsthhgSlP0cuMgX4xZ572ecjEIvg/edit#gid=1244561140 pyro planner]. (Make a copy). You can get [https://www.reddit.com/r/BlueArchive/comments/zysurw/tracking_blue_archive_gl_pyroxene_income_month_of/ 12k pyro a month for F2P] on average, or one spark every 2 months. New players get loads of one-time pyro rewards. You can earn a spark within 2 weeks or less.
 
==== What about the paid 3* selector ticket? Is it worth it? == ==
Here are the details on the [https://www.reddit.com/r/BlueArchive/comments/w0f44i/comment/igdw1pd/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3 3* selector ticket]. It's about $25-$30, and they may sell it on S. Hoshino. The number one choice is Ako if you're missing her.

Line 45:
"Is it worth it" is subjective. If you can only spend money once, it’s quite good. Otherwise, wait for Ako’s rerun.
 
=== I'm done rerolling, now what? ===
Check out [https://docs.google.com/document/d/13xLpWtAg2q6PY_UsXxfGe5Wsc8DyvLMRvbJqi5I8FfM/ Life's beginner guide] and [https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1BO-Uh_CsAOIetPjrNyFy9-7r1a4RAtVwK135bBC3hzM/ Midokuni’s "general" team building guide] (several tabs in). Bump Serina to 2* and start the story.
