NTE pity calculator. Exact odds of pulling an S-rank from your current pity.

A Neverness to Everness pity calculator computes your odds of pulling the featured S-rank character or Arc given your current pity and Annulith budget. It models NTE's no-50/50 character banner (1.88% base, soft pity 70, hard pity 90) and the Arc banner's 25/75 featured split with failsafe.

What is the Neverness to Everness pity system?

The Neverness to Everness pity system is Hotta Studio's gacha mechanic on the Scarborough Fair board, built around a no-50/50 guarantee that sets it apart from every other major anime gacha. On the Limited Character Banner (Solid Dice), every pull has a 1.88% base rate for an S-rank. Once you reach pity 70 without an S-rank, soft pity triggers and the per-pull rate jumps tenfold to roughly 19.59%, climbing sharply until hard pity at pull 90 — which guarantees an S-rank no matter what. These values are documented across the Prydwen NTE gacha guide, the Icy Veins NTE gacha system guide, and the BlueStacks NTE summoning guide.
The game's single biggest differentiator is that NTE removes the 50/50 entirely on limited character banners. Every S-rank you pull on a limited character banner is guaranteed to be the featured character — there is no standard-pool loss condition, no lose-next-win-after failsafe, no Capturing Radiance. Hotta Studio confirmed this directly at reveal, telling GamesRadar+ that "you will never lose another 50/50", and Push Square's hands-on coverage restates the same guarantee. This is a structural break from Genshin Impact, Honkai: Star Rail, Zenless Zone Zero, and Wuthering Waves, all of which use a 50/50 or 75/25 coin flip on their character banners. The practical consequence: 90 pulls (14,400 Annulith) is the absolute worst-case cost to guarantee any featured character — half the 180-pull ceiling that Genshin and HSR impose.
The Arc Weapon Banner (Tri-Key) uses a different, less player-friendly system. Base rate is 1.2%, soft pity at pull 60, hard pity at pull 80. When an S-rank Arc drops, only 25% of the time is it the featured weapon — the 75/25 split is inverted versus Genshin Weapon / HSR Light Cone / ZZZ W-Engine. NTE does include a failsafe: if you lose the 25/75, the next S-rank Arc is guaranteed featured, capping the worst case at 80 pulls for a guaranteed featured Arc. Tri-Key pulls are x10-only — you cannot do singles on the Arc banner.
The Standard Banner (Fabricated Dice) mirrors the character banner's rates (1.88% base, 70 soft, 90 hard, featuredSplit = 1.0). After the first 50 pulls on the standard banner, you earn a selector token that lets you pick any standard S-rank directly — a reroll-friendly mechanic aimed at launch-week players. Pity on NTE fully carries over between banners of the same type.

How to calculate your NTE pity odds

This free online NTE pity calculator does the math in four inputs. The same steps describe the manual process if you want to verify the result against community references such as the Prydwen NTE gacha guide or the Icy Veins NTE gacha system breakdown.
1. Select the banner type. Choose Limited Character (Solid Dice), Arc Weapon (Tri-Key), or Standard (Fabricated Dice). Each banner has its own base rate, soft-pity start, and hard-pity ceiling, so the banner choice alone shifts your odds significantly.
2. Enter your current pity. This is the number of pulls you have made on that banner type since your last S-rank. Pity in NTE carries over across limited character banners and across Arc banners, so enter whatever the in-game counter shows — fresh banners do not reset the counter.
3. Toggle the guaranteed switch (Arc banner only). If your previous S-rank Arc was not the featured one, turn the "You lost the last Arc 25/75" toggle on. The calculator will then force your next S-rank Arc to be the featured weapon. On the Limited Character and Standard banners this toggle is hidden — there is no 50/50 to lose.
4. Enter your pull budget. Type the number of pulls directly, or enter Annulith (160 Annulith = 1 pull) plus any Dice tickets in your inventory. On the Arc banner, round to the nearest 10 — Tri-Key pulls are x10-only.
The calculator returns five numbers: probability of pulling the featured S-rank within your budget, probability of any S-rank, expected pulls to your first featured, worst-case pulls (90 on character, 100 on Arc including failsafe, 50 on standard), and a pull-by-pull probability curve. A verdict chip converts the raw percentage into plain English — "very likely", "coin flip", "save more" — so you can decide whether to pull now or wait for the next cycle.

NTE per-pull S-rank probability formula

PS-rank(n)={r0if 1n<sr0+k(ns+1)if sn<h1if n=hP_{\text{S-rank}}(n) = \begin{cases} r_0 & \text{if } 1 \le n < s \\ r_0 + k \cdot (n - s + 1) & \text{if } s \le n < h \\ 1 & \text{if } n = h \end{cases}
  • nn = Pull index since your last S-rank (1-indexed).
  • r0r_0 = Base rate per pull: 0.0188 on Character/Standard, 0.012 on Arc.
  • ss = Soft-pity start: pull 70 on Character/Standard, pull 60 on Arc.
  • hh = Hard pity: pull 90 on Character/Standard, pull 80 on Arc.
  • kk = Soft-pity ramp coefficient (~10 × r_0 per pull). Produces the community-documented 19.59% first-pull rate at soft pity on the Character banner.
The per-pull rate is flat at the base rate until soft pity, then grows linearly by roughly ten times the base rate per pull. On the Limited Character banner that means your odds leap from 1.88% at pull 69 to about 19.59% at pull 70 — Hotta's own words are that "S-Class Character tiles increase tenfold" once soft pity triggers. Odds keep climbing until they hit 100% at pull 90.
Because the Limited Character banner has no 50/50, the math composes cleanly: the featured-S-rank probability IS the any-S-rank probability. No dynamic program over a `guaranteed` state is needed, no failsafe to integrate — every S-rank is the featured unit by construction. The result is that 90 pulls (14,400 Annulith) is the strict finite worst case to get the featured character, half of Genshin's 180-pull ceiling.
The Arc Weapon banner behaves like other gacha weapon banners: the engine runs a dynamic program over (pity, guaranteed) states, where an S-rank Arc has a 25% chance of being the featured one and a 75% chance of being a standard Arc. The lose-next-win-after failsafe means losing once forces the next S-rank Arc to be featured, so the strict worst case is 80 pulls for a guaranteed featured Arc — you cannot fall into a 160-pull spiral the way you can on Genshin Weapon or HSR Light Cone.

NTE pity calculator examples

Fresh character banner, 90 pulls, no 50/50 risk

You start a new Limited Character Banner at pity 0 with exactly 90 pulls saved (14,400 Annulith). Because hard pity is 90, probability of any S-rank is 100%. And because there is no 50/50 in NTE, that S-rank IS the featured character — probability of the featured S-rank is also 100%. For the same 90-pull budget on Genshin's Character Event banner, the featured probability would be roughly 62% (half from the 50/50, plus Capturing Radiance). The no-50/50 mechanic is worth ~38 percentage points at a 90-pull budget — the single biggest player-friendly gacha decision in any major anime game.

Mid-banner budget, pity 40, 50 pulls available

You are at pity 40 on the Limited Character banner (carried over from a previous banner) with 8,000 Annulith (50 pulls) saved. The calculator projects your pity to 90 total, which triggers hard pity exactly. Probability of the featured S-rank is 100%. This is why pity carryover matters — a player who started fresh at pity 0 with the same 50-pull budget would land around 54% featured probability. In NTE, banking pity on a banner you did not commit to is a real strategy.

Arc banner, pity 0, 80 pulls, 25/75 active

From pity 0 on the Arc Weapon banner with 80 pulls (12,800 Annulith) and no active guarantee, hard pity at 80 guarantees one S-rank Arc. The 25/75 split means probability of the featured Arc directly is about 26% (25% from the split plus a sliver of extra probability for an early soft-pity S-rank). If you lost the last 25/75 and activate the guaranteed toggle, featured probability jumps to 100% — the failsafe makes 80 pulls a strict guarantee after one prior loss.

Arc banner worst case, 100 pulls guarantees featured from pity 0

The strict worst case on the Arc banner starting from pity 0 with no active guarantee is 100 pulls (16,000 Annulith). Cycle one: hard pity at 80 delivers an S-rank Arc; if you lose the 25/75 (75% probability), the failsafe guarantees the next S-rank Arc is featured. Cycle two begins; the next 20 pulls in deep soft pity deliver a second S-rank under the failsafe. This 100-pull ceiling is better than Genshin Weapon's 240-pull worst case and HSR Light Cone's 160-pull ceiling at base-rate parity — but worse than ZZZ's 160-pull Exclusive Engine ceiling because NTE's featured split is 25/75 instead of 75/25.

Standard banner reroll path, 50 pulls, selector guarantee

Launch-week rerollers opening the Standard banner at pity 0 with 50 pulls (8,000 Annulith) hit the selector milestone at pull 50. Probability of an S-rank within those 50 pulls is roughly 62% via natural soft pity starting at 70 — wait, with 50 pulls you never reach soft pity, so the raw probability of any S-rank in 50 flat-rate pulls at 1.88% is about 61%. But the 50-pull selector token means you get a free standard S-rank of your choice at pull 50, pushing the effective any-S-rank probability to 100%. This is why the Standard banner is the reroll-friendly option for new accounts.

Cross-game comparison — same 90-pull budget, four gacha titles

What does a 90-pull budget actually buy you on each major anime gacha character banner, starting fresh at pity 0 with any coin flip still active? The table makes the comparison concrete.

NTE is the only title in this set that hits 100% featured probability inside a single 90-pull cycle. Every other game requires saving for a potential second cycle (180 pulls worst case) to guarantee the featured unit. At 14,400 Annulith for a guaranteed featured S-rank, NTE's character banner is mathematically the cheapest character guarantee in the anime gacha market — consistent with Game8's beta impressions noting three S-ranks in roughly 110 pulls during testing.

Tips for planning your NTE pulls

  • Read your verdict as a planning signal, not a promise. On the Limited Character banner, anything below 50% for a target character is a "save more" signal — the no-50/50 mechanic means your featured probability and your any-S-rank probability are the same number, so a low verdict is genuinely low. 80% and up is a confident pull.
  • Always push through soft pity. Stopping at pity 60 wastes the steepest part of the ramp. From pull 70 onward your per-pull odds climb from 1.88% to 19.59% in a single step, then keep climbing until 100% at pull 90. The last 20 pulls of a cycle account for the vast majority of expected S-rank probability — as the Prydwen gacha guide and the Icy Veins NTE breakdown both document. Budget for the full 90-pull cycle or do not start.
  • Pity carries over — use it. If you ended a previous limited character banner at 40/90, you start the next one at 40/90. A 50-pull budget on a 40-pity carryover guarantees the featured character; the same 50-pull budget on a fresh 0-pity start lands you around 55%. Time your commits so residual pity lands you in soft pity on the banner you actually want.
  • On the Arc banner, remember: 25/75 is inverted versus every other gacha. Only 25% of S-rank Arcs are the featured one — the opposite of Genshin Weapon's 75/25. If you lose the first 25/75 roll, the failsafe guarantees the next S-rank Arc is featured, capping worst case at 100 pulls from pity 0.
  • Arc banner pulls are x10-only. Tri-Key pulls come in batches of 10 exclusively — no singles. Round your Annulith budget to the nearest 1,600 (one x10) when planning, and remember that 80 pulls requires 12,800 Annulith as a minimum checkpoint.
  • Budget 14,400 Annulith as your character-banner baseline. That is 90 pulls, the strict worst case to guarantee any featured character on NTE — a point Push Square's hands-on preview highlights as the game's defining gacha feature. Below that budget you are gambling on getting the S-rank before hard pity. Above that, you are overbudgeting relative to the game's actual ceiling.
  • The Standard banner is the reroll and bad-luck insurance option. After 50 pulls on standard, you earn a selector for any standard S-rank. Never trade limited-banner currency for standard pulls — save standard pulls for Fabricated Dice tickets you accumulate passively.
  • Anything at or above 90% P(featured) is effectively safe. The remaining risk is deep tail variance — rare compounded soft-pity misses on the Arc banner. At 100% the math guarantees the pull no matter what the RNG does. NTE's no-50/50 means the character banner hits 100% much faster than Genshin or HSR at the same budget.

Frequently asked questions about NTE pity

Does NTE really have no 50/50?

Yes. On Neverness to Everness limited character banners, every S-rank you pull is guaranteed to be the featured character. There is no standard-pool loss condition and no failsafe toggle — the featured unit IS the S-rank by construction. Hotta Studio confirmed this at reveal, telling GamesRadar+ that "you will never lose another 50/50", and the guarantee is restated across every major guide including Prydwen and Icy Veins.

What is the base rate for S-rank characters in NTE?

1.88% per pull on limited character and standard banners — the overall effective probability disclosed directly by Hotta Studio on the reveal stream, as reported by GamesRadar+. Some community sources quote 0.99% as the "raw tile" probability on the Scarborough Fair board; 1.88% is the effective per-pull chance including the board's bonus tiles and is the number Hotta officially discloses.

When does soft pity start in NTE?

Pull 70 on the limited character and standard banners; pull 60 on the Arc weapon banner. At soft pity, the S-rank drop rate jumps tenfold — from 1.88% to roughly 19.59% on the character banner — and keeps climbing until hard pity. These values are documented by the Prydwen NTE gacha guide.

What is the hard pity in NTE?

90 pulls on limited character and standard banners; 80 pulls on the Arc weapon banner. Reaching hard pity guarantees an S-rank on the next pull, as confirmed by the BlueStacks NTE gacha guide. Because there is no 50/50 on the character banner, hitting hard pity guarantees the featured character directly.

How many pulls to guarantee a featured NTE character?

90 pulls (14,400 Annulith). Hard pity at 90 guarantees an S-rank, and because NTE has no 50/50, that S-rank is guaranteed to be the featured character. This is half the 180-pull worst case that Genshin Impact and Honkai: Star Rail impose on their character banners.

How does the Arc weapon banner pity work?

The Arc banner has a 1.2% base rate, soft pity at pull 60, and hard pity at pull 80. When an S-rank Arc drops, only 25% of the time is it the featured weapon — the 75/25 split is inverted versus other games. If you lose the 25/75 split, the failsafe guarantees the next S-rank Arc is featured. Worst case is 100 pulls (16,000 Annulith) from pity 0 to a guaranteed featured Arc.

Does pity carry over between NTE banners?

Yes. Pity on limited character banners fully carries over between different limited character banners, and Arc banner pity carries over between Arc banners. The Standard banner keeps its own separate counter. There is no reset when a banner rotates — a detail the Icy Veins NTE gacha guide emphasizes as one of the mechanics' biggest quality-of-life wins.

How much is 1 pull in NTE?

160 Annulith per pull, or 1 Dice ticket per pull. A 10-pull costs 1,600 Annulith. Solid Dice are used on the character banner, Tri-Keys on the Arc banner (x10-only), and Fabricated Dice on the standard banner. Dice tickets convert one-for-one to pulls on their respective banners.

Is NTE's pity better than Genshin or HSR?

For character banners, decisively yes. NTE's no-50/50 means 90 pulls guarantee the featured character, versus 180 pulls worst-case on Genshin and HSR. For weapon banners, NTE is middling: the Arc banner's 25/75 split is worse than Genshin Weapon's 75/25 and HSR Light Cone's 75/25, but the 80-pull hard pity and failsafe cap the worst case at 100 pulls — better than Genshin Weapon's 240-pull ceiling.

Is this NTE pity calculator free to use?

Yes. The calculator runs entirely in your browser, requires no login, and nothing you enter is sent to a server. Your pity counter, banner choice, and Annulith budget stay local — we do not track, store, or share any pull data.

How accurate are the NTE probabilities shown?

The math engine is a pure analytic dynamic program over (pity, guaranteed) states — no Monte Carlo simulation. Rates are based on Hotta Studio's developer disclosures (1.88% base rate via GamesRadar+, hard pity 90 confirmed by BlueStacks, Icy Veins, Prydwen, and the Game8 beta review) and cross-validated against 100,000-trial simulations. Launch-week values will be verified against the official in-game rate disclosure.


NTE gacha glossary

Annulith

The premium in-game currency in NTE. 160 Annulith equals 1 pull on the Scarborough Fair board.

Dice

Generic term for NTE's pull tickets. Three types exist: Solid Dice for the limited character banner, Tri-Key for the Arc weapon banner, and Fabricated Dice for the standard banner. Each dice equals one pull on its banner.

Solid Dice

The pull ticket used on the Limited Character Banner. Earned through events, login bonuses, and Annulith conversion.

Tri-Key

The pull ticket used on the Arc Weapon Banner. Comes only in batches of 10 — the Arc banner does not allow single pulls.

Fabricated Dice

The pull ticket used on the Standard Banner. After 50 pulls on standard, you earn a selector token for any standard S-rank.

Scarborough Fair

The interactive board that visualizes every NTE gacha pull. Your token rolls dice and moves across tiles — the tile you land on determines your pull result, wrapping the probability model in a board-game aesthetic.

Arc

NTE's term for a weapon. Pulled on the Arc banner with Tri-Keys. Most A-rank and some S-rank Arcs are also obtainable through gameplay rather than gacha.

Echo

NTE's term for a character's upgrade tier. Pulling duplicate copies of an S-rank character unlocks Echo levels (Echo 1 through Echo 6), analogous to Genshin constellations or HSR eidolons.

Pity

The counter of pulls since your last S-rank on a given banner type. Resets to 0 after any S-rank drop. Carries over between limited character banners and between Arc banners.

Soft pity

The steep rate ramp that starts at pull 70 on character/standard banners (pull 60 on Arc). Per-pull S-rank odds jump tenfold at soft pity and keep climbing until hard pity.

Hard pity

The pull at which an S-rank is 100% guaranteed: pull 90 on character/standard banners, pull 80 on Arc.

No 50/50

NTE's flagship gacha feature. On limited character banners, every S-rank pulled is guaranteed to be the featured character — there is no coin flip against the standard pool. Standard banners and the Arc weapon banner do not share this property.
