Hoshino (Swimsuit) Fest Banner FAQs

S. Hoshino Fest Banner

What and when is the fest banner? 100 free pulls?

  • It’s a double 3* rates banner (6%) featuring Hoshino (Swimsuit), 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.
  • Starts after maintenance on 1/31 (Tue) and lasts about 5 days until 2/5 (Sun) 1:59 AM (UTC).
  • You need to do 200 pulls (24k pyroxene) to guarantee her. Any unused pull points will turn into crafting materials once the banner rotates.
  • The 100 free pulls start after S. Hoshino leaves, and S. Izuna & S. Chise swap in. The pulls accumulate, but they will expire. Both are limited. Pull S. Izuna for meta.

Should I spark S. Hoshino more than once?

  • General advice is 1 spark on S. Hoshino, and save for others you need. Score chasers want UE30+, while 3* is good enough for everyone else, even for insane. 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?

Why these units? When will they come?

See Midokuni’s guide & the Raid Tier list for why, and Midokuni's and JP’s banners for when (can also use the pyro planner).

How can I plan my sparks?

  • Use the pyro planner. (Make a copy).
  • You can get 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).

Can I pull my favorites instead?

  • Absolutely. Club & friend borrows make raiding even easier, but spark S. Hoshino, Ako, and Himari too for an easier gaming life.
  • Find good clubs & friends in the recruitment channels on discord.

What about the paid 3* selector ticket?

  • Ticket details. They may sell it on S. Hoshino. Ako is #1 if you’re missing her. About $25-$30.
  • Dupes give a rate-up (100 eleph instead of 30), but I wouldn’t unless you’re a score chaser with a plan in mind.
  • Avoid picking a farmable unit.
  • Make sure you use it before it expires!

Is the selector worth it?

This is subjective. If you can only spend money once, it’s quite good. Otherwise, Wait for Ako’s rerun.
