Blue Archive Reroll Guide: Top Targets and Pull Tips

How to Reroll and Keep a Strong Starting Account

A strong opening roster gives you more options when building your first squads. Your Blue Archive reroll should target a useful student while leaving room to save recruitment resources for upcoming banners. Start with a guest account, use the tutorial recruitment retries, and evaluate your additional pulls before linking the account you want to keep.

Follow this sequence:

1. Select “Play with Guest Account.” Leave account linking until you have decided to keep your results.
2. Complete the opening tutorial. Use the story menu’s fast-forward option to skip scenes; you can revisit the story later.
3. Complete the tutorial 10-pull. It guarantees at least one 3-star student. Use the built-in retries to improve your opening result.
4. Continue until you can navigate the lobby. Close the MomoTalk prompt when menu navigation becomes available.
5. Claim your mailbox gifts. Review the recruitment tickets and currency available before choosing a banner.
6. Recruit for your chosen target. Keep your spending focused rather than dividing pulls among several unrelated goals.
7. Evaluate the account. Look at which students you gained and what they contribute, rather than counting only 3-star portraits.

If you want to restart, open the upper-right lobby menu, select Account, and choose Continue beside Reset Account. Follow the on-screen reset instructions. Reset only the account you intend to discard.

Use Tutorial Retries to Aim for Shun

The tutorial 10-pull uses the launch student lineup. Newer recruitment targets such as Kisaki belong in your later banner plans, rather than your tutorial wish list.

The tutorial allows up to 10 attempts, with an option to stash a result while trying again. In the Japanese version, the June 2026 update increased that allowance to 30 attempts.

Aim for Shun during these tutorial retries. She is a recommended launch-pool target, and the retry system gives you several opportunities without restarting the entire account.

Keep the distinction between tutorial retries and a full reset clear:

• Tutorial retry: Try another result within the introductory recruitment sequence.
• Full account reset: Discard the account and repeat the opening process after evaluating your later recruitment results.

Use the tutorial’s result-stashing feature when you get a roll you would be happy to keep, then continue trying within the available allowance.

Which Students Should You Target After the Tutorial?

Prioritize students whose skills add something valuable to your roster. Supports such as Kisaki and Hare (Camping) offer different benefits from damage dealers such as Iori and Aru.

Student	What they contribute	Recruitment consideration
Kisaki	EX skill damage buffs, Cost Recovery, and shielding	A high-utility target for high-end raids
Hare (Camping)	An Attack buff from a Striker slot	Useful across raids and challenge stages while leaving Special slots available
Kayoko (New Year)	Strong Mystic damage amplification	Especially valuable for teams built around Mystic damage
Aru (Dress)	Heavy Critical Damage buffs from a Striker slot	A support option used in raid teams
Iori	High Penetration damage with a low-cost EX skill	An early head start, though she is farmable from late-game Hard stages
Aru	Explosive damage with an EX skill that can hit groups or a single target	Farmable from Hard 18-3; requires Unique Gear for endgame viability

Keep character versions separate when choosing a target. Aru and Aru (Dress) fill different roles, just as Kayoko (New Year) is a specific version with Mystic-focused support.

For a support-focused start, aim for Kisaki or Hare (Camping). For an immediate damage option, consider Iori. Avoid demanding every recommended student on one account: choose your priority before starting another reset.

Save Recruitment Resources for Fest Opportunities

Free recruitment and saved currency serve different parts of your plan. During a campaign offering 200 free pulls, account for the full campaign allotment when deciding how much additional currency to spend.

Save discretionary pulls for a Fest banner offering a 6% 3-star rate. That creates an opportunity to expand a new roster while pursuing the featured students. The overall 3-star rate does not guarantee a particular student, so keep your featured target separate from your goal of collecting more characters.

If you have a Fest selector ticket, finish your planned Fest recruitment before using it. Previous Fest students can appear during Fest recruitment, so waiting lets you choose after seeing what your pulls already supplied.

Apply the same restraint to extra recruitment rewards. Keep tickets that can be saved for a later banner instead of spending them simply because they appeared in your inventory.

Fill Roster Gaps Without Chasing Every 3-Star

Several useful students are available through lower-rarity recruitment, farming, shops, or starter rewards. Build around those options when evaluating whether an account is worth keeping.

• Serina: A versatile healer whose 2-cost EX skill also repositions a student.
• Kotama: An accessible Attack buffer for your Strikers.
• Momoi: A Penetration damage dealer with a broad cone-shaped attack, obtainable through the raid shop.
• Nonomi: A free starter-campaign student useful for story battles and EXP Commissions.
• Mutsuki: A farmable damage option with flexible damage output.
• Koharu: A Striker healer obtainable with Rare Raid Coins, with an EX skill that heals allies and damages enemies.
• Maki and Akane: Raid-shop options that provide Defense reduction for Penetration teams.

Use these acquisition routes to reduce your reroll wish list. An account with your priority support and room to develop accessible damage dealers gives you a practical starting point.

Once you decide to keep it, return to Account and select Continue beside Link Account. Complete one of the available linking methods to secure your progress before investing more time in Kivotos.
