In RPG with turn based combat system Honkai Star Rail reroll is an opportunity to take the best heroes and weapons to your roster (light cones) at the start of the game. The process of obtaining these things is based on the gacha system: an automaton through which the player receives heroes and weapons in an almost completely random order in exchange for special items - star passes. At the beginning of the passage, a lot of passes are given, so you can try to start the journey with a strong roster and weapons at the expense of rerola, over and over again trying to knock out as many legends from multiple accounts as possible, while spending a lot of time on this process.
In the guide, we will tell you step by step how to make a reroll in Honkai Star Rail, evaluate its feasibility and time costs. For players aimed at maximizing the effectiveness of the roster, we will present the TOP of the best heroes for the reroll.
What is reroll in Honkai: Star Rail
Reroll is the process of creating new accounts to get the best heroes and weapons at the start through the use of bonus spins generously issued by the game at the beginning of the campaign. In Honkai Star Rail, the source of obtaining heroes and weapons is a gacha machine with an almost completely random issue, therefore the Pathfinders will need:
- Farm Star Passes (spins).
- Collect star jade, the currency for which they are exchanged star passes.
- Try your luck in the gacha system jumping, spinning standard and beginner banners of characters and light cones (weapons).
With such a system, there is no guarantee that heroes that are strong or suitable for personal taste and sympathies will fall out. However, a large number of free Star Passes, outstanding at the beginning of the story, allows you to curb the suffocating randomness at least at the beginning of the journey. For this, they create new accounts in large numbers, which is a key aspect of the reroll.
Is it worth it to reroll an account: pros and cons
Consider everything «behind» и «против» creating a series of accounts, starting with pros:
- Reroll will allow you to knock out your favorite / strongest hero or a light cone at the beginning of the game.
- Reroll gives you the chance to choose between the resulting compositions of characters and cones, giving preference from the beginning of the game to the best one or one that suits personal tastes.
- Character rarity 5⭐ in the newbie banner «Starting jump» will be received guaranteed for 50 twists, while there is a 20% discount. With such concessions, it makes sense to try a chance to catch a bigger prize. For example, two characters 5⭐.
However, during this process costs quite high:
- For players in Genshin impact or Honkai Impact 3 reroll means Honkai Star Rail will be linked to another HoYoverse account. For players who use the HoYoverse social network for communication and value their account, this option is not suitable.
- The process of creating an account, along with the passage of the first story quests to the place where the banners are unlocked, takes about 1 hour. Thus, even a quick rerun is about 1 hour of time.
- The chance of getting a hero with a rarity of 5⭐ is 0.3 - 0.6%, not counting the relief on the guarantor. The process of obtaining the desired character can take a whole day or more. There are no guarantees that the desired characters will be knocked out during the reroll and the attempts will not be in vain.
- Free star passes differ from Special Star Passes for event banners, so reroll Seele and her banner «Butterfly on the tip» actually impossible.
- If in Honkai Star Rail the gameplay feel and atmosphere are more important to you than maximizing your own team's stats, then perhaps the tedious reroll process will spoil the mood of the game from the first minutes and reduce the adventure mood.
- discount banner «Starting jump» is temporary and disappears after 50 jumps.
If all costs are taken into account and the desire to reroll has not disappeared, then we proceed to the main procedure.

How long does reroll take

So in the banner «Starting jump» you can make up to 40 pools. This will even leave a few passes (about 5), which, however, will not be enough for the guarantor.
Long strategy involves searching for 40 star passes for 50 spins. The following steps will help:
- Do the same as in the quick strategy. This will provide about 35 Star Passes.
- Explore the space station further «Hertha», which now has full access. In the regions Support Zone и base zone inhabit piggy banks, from which you can knock out 60 Star Jade. Be careful, the pigs are quick to run away both in explore mode and in combat.
