The Pity System is a Gacha feature in Honkai: Star Rail. See how the Pity System works, what soft and hard pity is, how to count pity, if pity carries over, and when it resets!
List of Contents
The pity system refers to the number of pulls or warps you need to do on a banner before you're guaranteed to get a 4-star or 5-star. However, you can get a 4-star or 5-star before even reaching that number.
Banner | 4-Star | 5-Star |
---|---|---|
Character Event Warp | 10 Pulls | 90 Pulls |
Light Cone Event Warp | 10 Pulls | 80 Pulls |
Regular Warp | 10 Pulls | 90 Pulls |
Starter Warp | 10 Pulls | 50 Pulls |
With the pity system, if you pull 9 times in a banner and don't get a 4-star or 5-star, your 10th pull guarantees a 4-star or above.
The same goes for the 5-star pity. For example, if by your 89th pull in a Character Event Warp banner, you still have yet to receive a 5-star character, your next pull is guaranteed to be a 5-star.
It is worth mentioning that the Regular Warp is the only banner that contains both 5-star characters and Light Cones!
Soft pity can be considered as a hidden mechanic since it's not officially confirmed by HoYoverse. However, it is generally believed that the rate of obtaining a 5-star character increases as you get closer to your 89th pull (79th for the Light Cone banner).
Hard Pity refers to the exact number of pulls needed to guarantee a 5-star drop. The number of pulls to secure a 5-star differs per banner and it can be viewed by selecting View Details button on a banner.
How to Teleport | |
---|---|
1 | On the Warp menu, click the View Details button. |
2 | Click the Records tab to view your pulls for the past 6 months. |
3 | Go to the page where you last pulled a 4-star or 5-star then start counting from there. |
The only way to track your pity is by manually counting the number of pulls you've already done since the last time you pulled a 4-star or 5-star.
The warp counter is separate for the 4 banner types. It resets when you get a 4-star or a 5-star.
Note that pulling a 4-star won't reset your counter for a 5-star. However, pulling a 5-star will reset the counter for both rarities!
When an Event Warp banner ends, the counter will carry over to the next banner of the same type. For example, after the current phase of Brilliant Fixation ends, your pity carries over to the next Light Cone Event Warp!
If you lose the 50-50 on a banner and didn't get the guaranteed 5-star when it ended, you will surely get it on the next banner. Note that the only way to track this is to check if the last 5-star you pulled is featured or not on the Records tab!
Banner | 4-Star Pull Rate | 5-Star Pull Rate |
---|---|---|
Character Event Warp | 5.1% | 0.6% |
Light Cone Event Warp | 6.6% | 0.8% |
Regular Warp | 5.1% | 0.6% |
Starter Warp | 5.1% | 0.6% |
For the highest rarity of 5-stars, the percentage of pulling a character or Light Cone is at 0.6% (0.8% for the Light Cone banner).
Banner | Success Rate |
---|---|
Character Event Warp | 50% chance to get featured characters |
Light Cone Event Warp | 75% chance to get featured Light Cones |
When you get a 4-star or 5-star, there is a 50% chance (75% for the Light Cone banner) it will be a featured drop.
If you didn't receive any of the drop rate boosted entities, your next guaranteed 4-star or 5-star drop will be the featured character or Light Cone!
If you pull 10 times on a banner and receive multiple 5-star characters or Light Cones, the last 5-star you receive will determine if your next 5-star will have a 50% chance or be a guaranteed featured drop!
For example, in a single 10-roll, you get Jing Yuan (featured) and Himeko (permanent). If Jing Yuan appeared first followed by Himeko, your next 5-star will be the featured character. However, if you pull Himeko first followed by Jing Yuan, your next 5-star pull will have a 50% chance of being the featured character!

I'm not sure the math is correct on this charting. My pity is similar to Genshin's which sits at 70 pity until a guaranteed 5-star, tested on all banners minus Lunae as it wasn't pulled for. Do we have accumulated data to cross-reference from multiple account pulls, or is this data based off of a sole account?
