Recruitment.
Three banner types, three different carry-over rules. The 80, 120 and 240 counters run independently. The important part is what persists between banners.
Banners at a glance
Event Banner · Si example
Each regular pull advances the 80, 120 and 240 counters independently. A 6★ resets the 80 counter, your first Si consumes the 120 guarantee, while token progress continues.
Illustration: 69 regular pulls, no 6★ or Si yet.

Soft pity from pull #66One time on this event banner
Independent counter – lost on banner change
Base 6★ chance is 0.8% per pull. Pull #66 gives 5.8%, #67 gives 10.8%, and #70 gives 25.8%. Pull #80 guarantees a 6★. Any 6★ resets the 80 counter.
One 6★ – two possible outcomes
Five standard operators plus the last two featured operators, Typhoeus and Liino:
The 50% applies to this entire alternative pool, not to each operator individually.
Example 1 · Si on pull #7069 pulls → soft pity → 50:50 won
- After 69 pulls, each counter is at 69. Pull #70 has a 25.8% chance of a 6★.
- Pull #70 is a 6★. You win the 50:50 and get Si.
- 80 resets to 0; 120 guarantee is consumed; independent 240 counter remains at 70/240.
170 more regular pulls until the guaranteed token – not 140. Any earlier Si duplicate depends on another 50:50.
Example 2 · Si as early as pull #10Early hit still consumes the 120 guarantee
Si arrives on pull #10. The 80 pity resets, the 120 guarantee is consumed, and the independent token counter is only at 10.
For low spenders, another 230 pulls on this banner is rarely worth it. The 240 progress resets when the event ends. Consider the RE-Factor re-run, which preserves its own 240 progress.

One-time featured guarantee. Consumed by the first copy; fresh on the next event.
Token every 240 regular pulls, independent of 80 and 120. Progress expires with this banner.
Important additions from the video and its corrections
At 30 regular event pulls you receive a bonus ten-pull that does not count towards pity. At 60 pulls, a recruitment dossier gives ten pulls for the next event banner, with limited availability.
Deliberately building pity is risky: an unexpected 6★ resets the 80 counter. Budget up to 120 pulls for a featured operator. One copy is enough for many players; extra potentials are not essential.
Re-Run Banner
RE-Factor also uses 80/120/240 pity but runs separately from normal event banners. Each counter has its own carry-over rule.
Illustration: three independent sample values, not real account data.
Shared across all RE-Factor banners
Soft pity from pull #66One-time guarantee for each RE-Factor operator
Preserved for future Tangtang RE-runs
80 pity is shared across every RE-Factor banner, regardless of operator. It is separate from normal event 80 pity.
Each operator has their own one-time 120 guarantee on their first RE-Factor banner. Once consumed, it does not return on subsequent re-runs.
The 240 token counter is saved for that operator across future RE-Factor appearances. Another operator has a separate counter.
Tangtang vs Rossi – separate token progress
If you reach 95/240 on Tangtang, your next Tangtang re-run resumes at 95. Rossi has a separate counter. Your 80 pity is shared between both RE-Factor banners.
Key advantage: the original event release and the first RE-Factor appearance each have their own one-time 120 guarantee. This makes additional copies easier to plan.
Standard Banner
Only the recurring 80 pity applies: a 6★ is guaranteed by pull #80. There is no one-time 120 featured guarantee and no 240 token.
Illustrative progress: 35 of 80 pulls.
Repeats after each 6★ hit
Soft pity from pull #66Base chance 0.8%. Soft pity starts on pull #66 (+5 percentage points per pull). Pull #80 is guaranteed. Every 6★ resets the counter.

Prefer free standard tickets from logins and missions. Spending versatile pull currency here is usually poor value: all five operators also appear in the event banner's alternative 50:50 pool.
