Rerolling is creating new accounts until you get desirable starting characters from your initial free pulls. This guide focuses on launch day efficiency for min-maxing your account.
Important: No one needs to reroll. It is optional for those who enjoy the process or want optimal starters. The game provides strong free units and guarantees, so a random start is fine for most players.
Preparation (Do This Before Launch)
- Salted Emails: Use Gmail's dot trick to create unlimited aliases from one inbox. Examples:
- example@gmail.com
- e.xample@gmail.com
- ex.ample@gmail.com
- exam.ple@gmail.com
- Prepare 20+ in advance. Optionally pre-register them on the official site, but avoid mass registration at once to prevent temporary blocks.
- Devices: Reroll on PC (faster controls) and mobile simultaneously if possible. Multitask to speed up the process.
- Time Estimate: 20-40 minutes per reroll (tutorial + pulls). Aim to optimize to 20-25 minutes after a few runs.
- Expected Free Pulls: Around 20 on the Standard Banner from pre-registration milestones and early mail. Beginner Banner pulls come from mission progress (guaranteed 1x standard 6★).
Reroll Goals
Focus on the Standard Banner first (higher pull count). Get 1x 6★ there, then 1x from Beginner Banner for a "double 6★ standard" account.
If Gilberta is the first featured 6★: Reroll exclusively for her (fewer pulls available: ~3-7 per run, 3x harder).
Standard 6★ Tier List (Launch Meta)
Use this table for targets. Prioritize flexibility and Physical synergy (60% of pool).
| Operator | Role | Why Reroll For? |
|---|---|---|
| Ardelia | Support / Flex | Safest pick. Fits any team long-term. |
| Ember | Healer / Tank (Physical) | Irreplaceable. Shields + heals. Pairs well with most standards. |
| Pogranichnik | SP Battery (Physical) | Strong enabler for Physical teams. |
| Lifeng | DPS (Physical) | Upgrade over starter Chen Qianyu. |
| Last Rite | DPS / Sub-DPS (Ice) | Solid for Ice teams. |
Recommended Accounts (Ranked by Strength):
- God Roll: Ember + Pogranichnik / Lifeng (Physical powerhouse).
- Safe Roll: Ardelia + any other 6★.
- Good Roll: Any two 6★ (favorites > meta).
- Minimum: 1x strong 6★ (e.g., Ardelia or Ember).
For Limited Banners: Only if top-tier (e.g., Gilberta). Expect ~16 runs (8+ hours) assuming 50/50 win. Harder due to low pulls.
Step-by-Step Reroll Process
- Create Account: Use a new salted email. Start the game (guest mode if available, bind later).
- Tutorial Rush: Skip all dialogues. Complete early missions/exploration until summoning unlocks (~15-30 minutes).
- Claim Rewards:
- Open mail for pre-registration milestones (~20 Standard pulls).
- Redeem any launch codes (check official socials).
- Claim chests/exploration rewards.
- Pull Standard Banner: Use all ~20 pulls. Aim for 1x 6★ early (statistically every 6-7 rerolls).
- Pull Beginner Banner: Progress a bit more for guaranteed 1x standard 6★.
- Evaluate: Matches your goal? Bind account and stop. No? Delete data (or log out/new email) and repeat.
- Bind Winner: Link to main email/social (e.g., Arknights account for bonuses).
Pro Tip: Pre-reg rewards are claimable 7-14 days post-launch, even for late-created accounts.
Efficiency Tips
| Tip | Details |
|---|---|
| Speedrun Mindset | Practice skipping. Time yourself - get faster each run. |
| Multitask | 1 mobile + 2 PC rerolls at once (if stable). |
| Pull Order | Standard first (more pulls). Beginner second. |
| Hard Limit | Set 20-30 rerolls max (~8-12 hours). Stats favor you. |
| Launch Day | Do it Day 1 before dailies/events lock progress. |
Mental Health Advice (hah)
- Set Limits: E.g., 21 rerolls. Stop if tired.
- Fun First: Play favorites, not just meta. Games should not feel like work.
- Alternatives: Grind naturally, buy a pre-rolled account, or spend for pulls (often faster).
- Burnout Risk: Rerolling killed hype for some in betas. Walk away if it sucks the joy out.
Good luck at launch! Share your rolls in communities. 🍀
