How a refresh works
- You see up to four tags plus a duration. Default 9 hours for 4★+ chance.
- Lock the tags you want. The result must match every locked tag.
- Expedited Plans skip the wait. Do not burn them on 3★-only combos.
Qualifications
- Top Operator — 6★ from the recruitable 6★ pool. Never a limited.
- Senior Operator — 5★ from the recruitable 5★ pool.
- Starter — 3★ tutorial operators (Fang, Kroos, …).
- Robot — 1★ robots (Castle-3, Lancet-2, …).
Worth locking
Open the tag calculator, tap the tags on your refresh, and only spend Expedited Plans if the preview is a 4★+ you actually want (Myrtle, a missing class, or Top Operator).
Our calculator is a subset of the live pool — operators with icons on this site. If the in-game guarantee preview disagrees, trust the game.
Timer and Expedited Plans
- Default 9 hours if you want a real shot at 4★+. Shorter timers bias toward 3★.
- Expedited Plans skip the wait. Spend them on Top Operator, Senior Operator, or a Myrtle-class combo — not on Starter-only tags.
- Limited operators (Sui siblings, most alts, Celebration exclusives) never appear here. Use Headhunting pity for those banners.
