Hi so, I'm trying to save a lot for Mountain's banner (over 70+ rolls!) and I have a question regarding the pity system.
So I am aware that pity transfers over from one banner to another, but limited banners are a different story that focus on their own pity. What I do want clarified is- my pity rate is... pretty high since the last time I got a 6* was in December for Phantom's banner. Since I really want Mountain, I don't want to break it and lose out on the possibility of getting him. Rosmontis's banner is coming soon, and it looks like we get a daily free draw. I was just curious:
will my pity rate from previous banners carry into this Rosmontis banner and ruin my chances for a possible Mountain? Or will the Rosmontis banner not involve my standard banner pity and have its own rates?
I understand that standard headhunting shares pity. Now does this mean *only* within the standard pool gacha, or with all banners that are not limited time (like Nian's or Rosmontis's?)
I'm sorry if this has been asked or explained before, I just want a clarification since me and my friend have been confused and just wanted more specific answers since most resources were pretty bare bones or didn't directly answer the question we had. Thank you!
Limited Banners function a bit differently than Standard Pool Banners or Normal Event/Feature Banners. Here are the main differences:Limited Banner Differences
- The [New Year Celebration Lookback] Limited Banner is different than the others in that it doesn't have Limited Operators. For these banners, the first (and only the first) 6* operator in this headhunting is guaranteed to be on of the Operators that the player does not currently have from a specified pool of existing non-limited 6 Stars.
Limited Banner Series'
- There are currently 4 Limited Banner Series: [Celebration], [Spring Festival], [Summer], and [New Year Celebration Lookback]. (Note that the Spring Festival, Summer, and New Year Series do not yet have EN translated names)
- Limited Operators are added to the non-rate-up 6 star pool of future banners of the same series after 1 year has passed (based on the CN Banner release schedule). They also become available for purchase with [Headhunting Data Contract]s at the same time.
- The R6 Collab Banner Attack-Defence Tactical Collide with limited Operators was not announced to be part of any existing series, and it is unkown if this banner or these operators will ever be made available again in the future.
- The [New Year Celebration Lookback] Limited Banner is different than the others in that it doesn't have Limited Operators. For these banners, the first (and only the first) 6* operator in this headhunting is guaranteed to be one of the Operators that the player does not currently have from a specified pool of existing non-limited 6 Stars.

Limited Banner Schedule
Based on the last year or so of CN schedule, it looks like there will be 4 regularly occurring Limited Banners per year. There may also be additional non-regular limited banners (for example, the R6 collab banner)
Celebration Series Schedule
- On CN, a [Celebration Series] Banner happens twice per year: one on Anniversary, and one on Half-Anniversary
- On Global, the [Celebration series] banners occurred for the first time on first anniversary, the second time during Golden Week, and the third time not attached to any significant date. it is unclear exactly if/how the global [Celebration] banners will be scheduled in the future, but we can expect two per year.
Spring Festival Series Schedule
- On CN, a [Spring Festival Series] Banner happens every year on Chinese New Year.
- On Global, the [Spring Festival Series] banners have happened on the Half-Anniversaries. It is unclear if this scheduling will continue.
Summer Series Schedule
- On CN, the only current [Summer Series] Banner happened in August 2021. It is unknown when the series will be repeated and if it will be regularly occurring.
- On Global, the [Summer Series] banner has not occurred yet. As it is the next Limited Banner in line as per the CN schedule, it is speculated that it will come on the next major global date of significance, which would be the 2nd Anniversary.
New Year Celebration Lookback Schedule
- On CN, the only current [New Year Celebration Lookback] Banner happened on January 1, 2022. It is unknown when the series will be repeated and if it will be regularly occurring.
- On Global, the [New Year Celebration Lookback] banner has not occurred yet.
