Like any other gacha game, in Wuthering Waves players can roll in various banners that the title offers. With the launch, there are five banners that players can use their Astrite to obtain various characters and weapons. The five gacha banners are as follows:
- Novice and Beginner's Choice Convene (Two Beginner Banners)
- Character Permanent Convene (Standard Character Banner)
- Weapon Permanent Convene (Standard Weapon Banner)
- Character Event Convene (Limited-time Character Banner)
- Weapon Event Convene (Limited-time Weapon Banner)
Novice and Beginner's Choice Convene
There are two types of beginner banners in Wuthering Waves. One is called the Novice Convene and the other is the Beginner's Choice Convene. In the former, you are guaranteed to get one random 5-star Resonator from the permanent banner pool within 50 pulls. Luckily, the Novice Convene has a 20% discount so you only need to spend 40 Lustrous Tides.
Once you've obtained a 5-star character from the Novice Convene, it will disappear and unlock the Beginner's Choice Convene. In Beginner's Choice Convene, you can select one 5-star Resonator from the permanent banner pool and you are guaranteed to get the desired character within 80 pulls. This banner will also disappear once you have pulled the 5-star unit.

Standard Character Convene
For the Standard Character Convene, everyone is guaranteed to get at least one 5-star unit in every 80 pulls. If you acquire a 5-star character from the banner, the pity will be reset and the roll count will start again. When you get a 5-star while rolling, you will be bestowed a random unit from the banner's character pool.
Standard Weapon Convene
Like the Standard Character Convene, the Standard Weapon Convene has five weapons in its pool. You can select one 5-star weapon of your choice and you are guaranteed to acquire the desired weapon within 80 pulls. After getting a 5-star, the pity of the banner resets. It is worth adding that you can also switch the weapon any time you want.

Character Event Convene
The Character Event Convene is the limited-time exclusive banner that features the Event character. In this banner, you are guaranteed to get a 5-star Resonator in 80 pulls with a 50% chance of obtaining the limited Resonator. If that character is not the featured character, your next 5-star summon will be guaranteed to be the featured character. Note that the pity count resets after you get a 5-star drop.
Featured Weapon Convene
The Weapon Event Convene features the signature weapon of the limited character. In every 80 pulls, you are guaranteed to get the featured 5-star weapon. This is quite a nice feature and forgiving compared to other gacha games.
Soft Pity
When discussing the Pity system, you must know about the Soft Pity. Soft Pity increases the chances of getting the 5-star in each pull until you reach 80 pulls.
4-star Pity
You will obtain a 4-star drop from any banner in every 10 rolls.
Aftershocked Coral Shop offers Waveabands
While pulling, if you obtain a copy of a character, you will acquire the Afterglow Coral currency. From the Store, you can purchase various in-game items including the Resonator Wavebands. You can buy two Wavebands of the limited-time character to save pulls. Additionally, you can acquire up to two Wavebands of a Standard character.
You must spend 360 Afterglow Corals for a limited-time 5-star Waveband, and 270 for a Standard 5-star Waveband. Keep in mind that if you don’t have the character, purchasing the Wavebands will not unlock them.
