== Hoshino (Swimsuit) Festival Banner FAQs == |
|||
=== Reroll help === |
|||
| ⚫ | |||
==== How do I reroll? ==== |
|||
==== What and when is the festival banner? There's 100 free pulls? ==== |
|||
- Play until the tutorial ends. Collect the mail and use all the free pulls you have. You want the essential 2*s for easier progression. <br> |
|||
| ⚫ | |||
| ⚫ | |||
<br> |
|||
- You can bind potentially good accounts to dummy emails, then compare and pick one at the end. <br> |
|||
The banner 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 to guarantee her (24k pyroxene worth). Any unused pull points convert to minor crafting materials once the banner rotates. |
|||
- You cannot unlink an account and still save it. You’ll have to “close account” and wait a week for it to delete. (This action is reversible). Once it’s wiped, then you can bind your guest account to it. <br> |
|||
<br> |
|||
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. |
|||
==== |
==== How do I mass reroll? ==== |
||
- If you’re hardcore rerolling, do it on an emulator. Google how for your particular app. [https://www.bluestacks.com/features/rerolling.html/ Bluestacks example]. <br> |
|||
[[File:BA Reroll.jpg|thumb|Reroll Guide. Add SHoshino to must pull if rerolling during the festival banner]] |
|||
- Install and patch the game in one instance. Make 4 clones of it. Sync them, reroll 4 at a time. Save any potential good accounts. Add more clones to replace them. |
|||
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. |
|||

<br> |
|||
[[File:BA Reroll Point Guide.png|thumb|Reroll Point guide to help choose between multiple accounts]] |
|||
Graplo's note on the Reroll Point guide: After rerolling, and settling with your ideal account, it is advised to not begin saving immediately, and spend more of the pyroxene you gain over the next few days on more rolls, in order to gain key 2 star characters that will greatly help with progressing. These are: Tsubaki, Mutsuki, Akari, Chise, Junko, Momoi, Serika. |
|||
2*s are not worth restarting accounts for, you'll get them all eventually. |
|||
=== |
==== How do I login to a linked account? ==== |
||
- The game should prompt you which account to use on the title screen. If you’re stuck in guest mode somehow: |
|||
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. |
|||
Complete the tutorial on guest. Link the account to the email you want. It’ll say “this is already linked, do you want to login instead?” Say yes. |
|||
=== Festival banners, paid items === |
|||
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. |
|||
=== |
==== What are festival banners? When’s the next? ==== |
||
- They’re JP’s anniversary banners with double the 3✩ rate. Previous fest units can drop in it, but you can only spark the featured student. The next one is Mika’s. <br> |
|||
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]). |
|||
- Rates on Mika’s banner: <br> |
|||
—- 6% total for a 3✩ <br> |
|||
- 0.7% for Mika <br> |
|||
- 0.3% for Wakamo <br> |
|||
- 0.3% for SHoshino (the extra 0.3% cuts into the 1 star rate) <br> |
|||
- There’s 68 three stars in this banner (65 permanent units and limited Mika/Wakamo/SHoshino). You can only spark Mika. <br> |
|||
- See [https://bit.ly/MidoStudentThoughts Midokuni’s “banner summary” tab] for estimated dates. |
|||
==== |
==== What’s worth buying for real money? ==== |
||
- Worth is subjective, but the cheapest decent things are: New teacher packs x3, both monthly subscriptions, and the AP packs during good events. The Serika package is alright, but she’s easy to farm. |
|||
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]. |
|||
=== |
==== Should I buy the Start Dash ticket? ==== |
||
- The pool of 8 is small and offers a lot of great units. It also gives a rate-up for dupes (100 elephs instead of 30). However, 3 students are farmable (and Koharu will join the raid shop in several months). <br> |
|||
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. |
|||
- I probably wouldn’t buy it unless you’re already buying the 2 monthly subs and AP packs during good events. <br> |

|||
==== |
==== Will Global ever get another 3* selector? ==== |
||
- As of now, not yet. JP is ahead of us by 4-5 months, and we get the same products they do more or less. The closest thing was an RNG ticket where you’d choose an attack type (red/yellow/blue), and get a random permanent 3* from that pool. <br> |
|||
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. |
|||
- Always read the fine print before buying in case our ticket is different from JP’s. |
|||
[[File:BA SelectorTicket.jpg|thumb|3* Selector Ticket info (farmables crossed out)]] |
|||
Dupes give a rate-up (100 elephs instead of 30), but I wouldn’t unless you’re a score chaser with a plan in mind. Avoid picking a farmable unit. |
|||
=== Student Meta === |
|||
'''''Make sure you use it before it expires!''''' |
|||
"Is it worth it" is subjective. If you can only spend money once, it’s quite good. Otherwise, wait for Ako’s rerun. |
