Warps are Honkai: Star Rail's gacha. A limited warp costs one Star Rail Special Pass (160 Stellar Jade). The game adopted the Genshin Impact structure with the numbers intact and one friendlier weapon-banner detail. [[1]](#ref-1)

## Banner types

| Banner | Featured | 5-star base rate | Hard pity | Featured guarantee |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Character Event Warp | 1 limited 5-star character | 0.6% (1.6% consolidated) | 90 | 50/50; loss guarantees the featured character next (worst case 180) |
| Light Cone Event Warp | 1 limited 5-star light cone | 0.8% (1.87% consolidated) | 80 | 75/25; loss guarantees the featured light cone next (worst case 160) |
| Stellar Warp (standard) | none, permanent pool | 0.6% (1.6% consolidated) | 90 | none |

There is no Capturing Radiance equivalent as of July 2026, so the character banner's featured share stays a plain [50/50](/wiki/fifty-fifty).

## Pity behavior

Hard pity is 90 warps on character banners and 80 on light cone banners; a 4-star or better is guaranteed per 10 warps. The consolidated 1.6% implies an average of 62.5 warps per 5-star character. Community measurements put a soft pity ramp near warp 74, a community-documented estimate rather than a published number. [[1]](#ref-1)

Pity and guarantee state carry over between banners of the same type, including into reruns and across versions. Since the 4.x versions, reruns often group several past 5-stars into a single multi-character banner with a designated target.

## The Fate collaboration pool

The game's first external collaboration (Fate/stay night, from Version 3.4 in July 2025) runs on a separate warp category with rules that differ from regular limited banners: its pity pool is shared only among collaboration warps and does not transfer to or from regular banners, the banners have no rate-up 4-stars, and the collaboration characters do not enter the standard pool afterward. [[2]](#ref-2) This is the pattern described on the [collaboration event](/wiki/collaboration-event) page; check pity isolation before saving across a collab boundary.

## Duplicates

Duplicate 5-star characters become Eidolons, up to six per character, each unlocking an upgrade. Full Eidolons multiply the worst-case cost of a character by seven; the [dupe system](/wiki/dupe-system) page covers the economics.
