How do Polychrome convert to pulls?

160 Polychrome = 1 Encrypted Master Tape worth of Exclusive / W-Engine signal. Encrypted tapes already in inventory count as ready pulls. Master Tapes are for Stable Channel.

Why is worst-case 180 pulls?

If you are not on guarantee: up to 90 to an S-Rank (might lose 50/50), then up to 90 more on guarantee. Soft pity usually means less — budget the floor if you hate gambling.

How is this different from the pity calculator?

Pity tracks where you are and odds curves. This budget page asks whether your current stash covers hard pity or worst-case featured pulls.

How do I know if I am on guarantee?

Exclusive History: if your last S-Rank Agent was not the featured limited unit, the next Exclusive S-Rank is guaranteed featured. Toggle that switch here.

What this calculator answers

How many Exclusive / W-Engine pulls your Polychrome + Encrypted tapes buy right now
Whether that stash covers pulls remaining to Exclusive hard pity (90)
Whether it covers worst-case featured Agent cost if you are off-guarantee (up to 180)
How many pulls remain to W-Engine hard pity (80) on a separate counter
Stable Channel pull estimate from Master Tapes + Poly convert (does not move Exclusive pity)

Cost anchors

Scenario	Signals	Polychrome
Single Encrypted signal	1	160
Exclusive hard pity	90	14,400
Worst-case featured (off-guarantee)	180	28,800
W-Engine hard pity	80	12,800

Soft pity usually lands earlier — still plan with the floor if missing a featured Agent would ruin your patch. Systems detail: Signal Search pity guide.

Workflow with the pity calculator

Copy pity + guarantee into the pity calculator for odds framing.
Enter the same pity here with inventory counts.
If you are short of hard pity, farm events / redeem codes before pulling emotionally.
During anniversary patches, claim free selectors first (see Version 3.1) — free Agents reduce how hard Exclusive has to work.
