The **Honkai: Star Rail Pull Calculator** helps Trailblazers estimate how long it will take to acquire their desired characters or Light Cones by factoring in current resources, pity count, and expected monthly free-to-play income. Plan your Star Rail journey efficiently!

Honkai: Star Rail Pull Calculator

HSR Pull Calculator Formula

$$P_{\text{Needed}} = P_{\text{Target}} – P_{\text{Current}}$$ $$T_{\text{Months}} = \frac{P_{\text{Needed}}}{P_{\text{Monthly}}}$$

Where:

  • $P_{\text{Current}} = \frac{\text{SJ}_{\text{Current}}}{160} + \text{Passes}_{\text{Current}} + \text{Pity}$
  • $P_{\text{Monthly}} = \frac{\text{SJ}_{\text{Monthly}}}{160}$ (Monthly Pull Rate)

Variables

Understanding the inputs is key to an accurate estimate:

  • Current Stellar Jade (SJ): Your current banked premium currency.
  • Current Star Rail Passes: The number of standard or special passes you already own.
  • Current Pity (0-90): The number of pulls you have made since your last 5-star unit/Light Cone. Pity soft-starts around 75 and is guaranteed by 90.
  • Target Total Pulls: The total pulls required for your goal. Typically 90 for a 50/50 win, 160-180 for a guaranteed acquisition.
  • Average Monthly Stellar Jade Income: Your expected SJ earned monthly from events, dailies, Simulated Universe, and MOC (Memory of Chaos).

What is the HSR Pull Calculator?

The Honkai: Star Rail Pull Calculator is an essential tool for resource management in the game. It aggregates all your current and future expected Stellar Jade and Star Rail Passes to determine the feasibility of obtaining a specific banner item within a given timeframe. By providing personalized inputs, it moves beyond simple resource counts to give you a concrete timeline, which is crucial given the limited availability of event characters and Light Cones.

Effective resource allocation in HSR, particularly for F2P (Free-to-Play) and low-spending players, is paramount. This calculator helps mitigate the risk of missing a desirable unit by quantifying the exact number of months (or patches) required to accumulate the necessary pulls. It accounts for the 160 SJ per pull ratio and allows for the inclusion of current pity progress, providing a high-fidelity prediction.

How to Calculate Your Pull Goal (Example)

Let’s follow a step-by-step example for a Trailblazer aiming for a guaranteed 5-star character (160 pulls):

  1. Determine Current Resources: You have 8,000 Stellar Jade, 10 Passes, and 50 Pity.
  2. Calculate Total Current Pulls: Divide SJ by 160: $8000 / 160 = 50$ pulls. Add passes and pity: $50 + 10 + 50 = 110$ total pulls.
  3. Determine Pulls Remaining: Subtract current pulls from the target: $160 – 110 = 50$ pulls remaining.
  4. Calculate Monthly Pull Rate: Assume an average monthly income of 12,000 Stellar Jade: $12000 / 160 = 75$ pulls per month.
  5. Estimate Time: Divide remaining pulls by the monthly rate: $50 / 75 \approx 0.67$ months. You will achieve your goal in less than one month.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

  • Why is 160 pulls considered “guaranteed” for a 5-star?

    The maximum pity is 90 pulls. To guarantee a specific banner character, you might lose the 50/50 chance first (requiring max 90 pulls) and then need another 90 pulls for the guaranteed unit. $90 + 90 = 180$. However, many users aim for 160-170 as the soft pity usually triggers around 75 pulls.

  • Does this calculator account for the 50/50 chance?

    No, this calculator assumes the worst-case scenario (guaranteed acquisition pulls, typically 160-180 total pulls) to ensure you have enough resources. It focuses on resource accumulation, not probability.

  • What is a realistic monthly Stellar Jade income?

    A pure Free-to-Play player typically earns between 8,000 and 10,000 Stellar Jade per patch (42 days), averaging roughly 6,000 to 7,500 SJ per 30 days. Players with the Express Supply Pass and Battle Pass can easily exceed 15,000 SJ per 30 days.

  • Should I include the pity from the Standard Banner?

    No, the pity count for the Character/Light Cone Event Warp is separate from the Standard Banner. Only use the pity count shown on the specific limited banner you are pulling on.
