Pulling Advice
Use the calendar as a resource-planning tool rather than a promise of exact future content. A few practical rules help keep a banner plan flexible:
- If Odette or Arlecchino is a priority, Phase 1 ends on September 1. Check before the regional reset.
- If you are targeting Flins or Ineffa, wait for the Phase 2 banner details and trial stages so you can evaluate their roles and team fit.
- For Vodyanitsa, Vesna, Valeriy, Mitya, Danica, Noy, save Primogems in stages because the dates are not official.
- Pull for a signature weapon only after you have secured the character you want and a separate Fate budget for the weapon banner.
