Should You Pull For Fugue?
Fugue is a strong Break Support that provides Super Break to allies and can help ignore enemy Weaknesses. She can also help trigger an additional Weakness Break with her ability to add an additional Toughness meter on enemies.
We recommend pulling for Fugue if you have a premium Break DPS such as Rappa, Boothill, and especially Firefly.
Should You Pull For Lingsha?
Lingsha is a healer that provides consistent healing and cleanse with her Follow-up attacks. Her Ultimate can heal allies and increase the Break DMG received by enemies.
Pull for Lingsha if you're planning to build a premium Break team consisting of The Dahlia, Fugue, and any Break DPS.
Should You Pull for Saber?
Saber is a strong Destruction DPS who can deal high amounts of Skill and Ultimate DMG. While technical to use, Saber can be super effective in all Endgame content if used optimally.
Pull for Saber if you really like her have units that provide turn advance like Sunday or Bronya, or units that restore energy like Huohuo. If you already have a strong Wind DPS, you can consider skipping Saber.
Do note that once Saber's Banner has ended, Saber will be gone forever.
Should You Pull for Archer?
Archer is a free Hunt DPS that specializes in single-target Skill DMG. The real question is whether or not his Eidolons are worth investing on.
Archer's Eidolons will provide quality of life upgrades for his Skill usage at E1 and damage upgrades from E2 onwards. This is great to pull for if you don't plan on pulling Sparkle for Archer.
At E0, Archer is already a strong DPS, but he requires the best Supports for his teams or Eidolons as a solo unit.

Best Light Cones and Tier List
Should I Pull for Long Road Leads Home?
Long Road Leads Home provides Nihility characters with Break Effect and gives them access to the Charred effect, which increases the Break DMG taken by enemies.
However, this Light Cone only excels for characters such as Fugue and The Dahlia in their kit since this only increases Break DMG not much else.
Long Road Leads Home Best Characters
Should I Pull for Scent Alone Stays True?
Scent Alone Stays True provides Abundance characters with a bunch of Break Effect and allows their damaging Ultimates to inflict the Woefree effect. This is great for characters who scale with Break Effect such as Lingsha and Gallagher.
However, this Light Cone only excels for characters who scale with Break Effect in their kit or if their Ultimate damages enemies.
Scent Alone Stays True Best Characters
Should You Pull for A Thankless Coronation?
A Thankless Coronation is amazing for Saber since it provides her DMG, gives her bonus ATK, and her much needed Energy Regen.
While this is Saber's best-in-slot, other Light Cones such as Thus Burns the Dawn or On the Fall of an Aeon should suffice if you're saving up for other characters.
A Thankless Coronation Best Characters
Should You Pull for The Hell Where Ideals Burn?
The Hell Where Ideals Burn is Archer's best Light Cone since it provides a permanent CRIT Rate buff and boosts his ATK through Skill Usage. This Light Cone can be easily attained if you plan on pulling in the Version 3.4 banners.
If you plan on saving your Stellar Jades, you can skip this Light Cone since other 5-star Light Cones are usable on Archer. If you want to invest on Archer, we recommend getting his Light Cone!
The Hell Where Ideals Burn Best Characters
Banner Pity Mechanics
Hard Pity for Characters and Light Cones
Honkai: Star Rail follows the exact same pity rules as Genshin Impact. Characters are guaranteed to appear after 90 pulls while Light Cones only need 80 pulls.
5-Star Selector
After 300 rolls in the Stellar Warp Banner, players are eligible for a 5-star Selector. This is only available once per account so choose wisely!

Event Banner Pity Carries Over
Like in Genshin Impact, pity in Character and Light Cone Event Banners carries over so your pulls are not exactly wasted.
| Example of Pity Carrying Over |
|---|
 Spent 89 pulls for Seele in her banner's last day without getting a 5-Star. Seele's Banner is replaced by Jing Yuan's. Next pull at the 90th is a guaranteed 5-Star with a 50% chance to be Jing Yuan. |
Pull Animation Differences
Different Colors for Pulls
Depending on your pull, the door behind Pom-Pom will glow in different colors. If you did a 10-pull, the highest rarity color is prioritized.

Anonymous over 2 years"Take note that if you get a 5-star earlier than 50 pulls, you will not get another 5-star on your 50th pull. " That's not necessarily true. Let it be known, you can get an extra 5 star after you get your guaranteed one.
