Okay, so I’ve been grinding away at this new game, “Solo Leveling: Arise”, and let me tell you, the struggle is real. I’m talking about the pity system, or as they call it, “Draw Support”. It’s supposed to help us unlucky folks out, but it took me a while to figure out how it all works.
I started playing and, of course, I’m pulling for characters like crazy. At first, I’m doing single pulls because, hey, maybe I’ll get lucky, right? Wrong. I did single pulls up to 63 times, and nothing. It felt like a total waste. Then I remembered, I saw somewhere that you should do multi-pulls until you reach 60 because 64 is already more percentage. So, I switched to multi-pulls.
Then I realized something, there are two main schools of thought on how to approach this. Some people say do multi-pulls until 60, while others say just keep pulling singles until you hit the “soft pity” at 64. That’s when the game starts to feel sorry for you and your chances of getting an SSR, a super rare character, increase.
I spent hours watching videos and reading guides, trying to understand this whole pity thing. I’m getting 2×2 SSR already. From what I gathered, if you don’t get the limited-rate up character you’re aiming for, you have a 50% chance. But, if you’ve lost your first 50/50 then you’ll definitely get the limited-rate up character next time you receive an SSR. I decided to go all-in on the multi-pull strategy.
- First ten pulls: Nothing.
- Second ten pulls: Still nothing.
- Third ten pulls: Jackpot! I finally got an SSR, but of course, it wasn’t the one I wanted.
But here’s the thing, this game is tough. It’s like one of those “Souls” games where you die a lot and get frustrated. I kept failing missions because my characters weren’t strong enough. I realized I needed to level up like crazy to even stand a chance. So, I started grinding, doing every quest and event I could find.
Eventually, after 64 pulls in total, the soft pity kicked in. I could feel the difference. My luck started to change. I kept pulling, and bam! I finally got the SSR character I was after. It was a grind, but it felt so good to finally achieve it.
So, yeah, that’s my experience with the “Solo Leveling: Arise” pity system. It’s a bit of a rollercoaster, but once you understand how it works, and you’re prepared to grind, you can definitely make it work for you. Just be prepared to put in the time and effort, and maybe, just maybe, you’ll get lucky. The game’s difficulty and progression are stern and unforgiving (like a Souls game). If you haven’t leveled up enough to match the level required for each chapter, you might fail many times and throw your controller in frustration. So, get ready to do some intense grinding, be it on mobile or PC.
