Rerolling is the oldest trick in gacha games: you create a fresh account, spend the free starting pulls, and start over until you get the characters you want. In Honkai: Star Rail it works, but it is slow. This guide explains how rerolling works in Star Rail, how long it really takes, and when it makes more sense to start with a ready-made Honkai: Star Rail starter account.
How rerolling works in Honkai: Star Rail
Star Rail has no guest login. Every new attempt needs a brand-new HoYoverse account, which means a new email address each time. A typical reroll loop looks like this:
- Create a new HoYoverse account with an email you have never used.
- Play the tutorial and the first story missions until warps (the summon menu) unlock.
- Claim the beginner rewards, mail rewards and any event Stellar Jade.
- Spend everything on the banners and check what you got.
- Not happy? Log out, create another account and repeat.
How long does one reroll take?
Expect around 30 to 50 minutes per attempt once you know the routine, and much longer the first time. Getting a specific limited 5-star character can take dozens of attempts, so a "good" start often costs several evenings of repeating the same tutorial.
What makes a good start in Star Rail
- Stellar Jade and passes: the more pulls an account has left, the more chances you have on the next limited banner you actually care about.
- Special Passes: these are used on character event banners, so they matter more than standard Star Rail Passes.
- Server: pick the server where you will play with friends. America, Europe and Asia are separate, and progress does not transfer between them.
- Email access: an account linked to its own email lets you change the password and recover it later.
Rerolling yourself vs. a starter account
Rerolling yourself is free but costs time. A starter account skips the loop: the tutorial is done, the account is around Trailblaze Level 50, and it comes with a large stock of Stellar Jade and passes ready to spend on the banner of your choice. You choose the server and keep full control of the email.
Our Honkai: Star Rail accounts are listed with the exact amount of Stellar Jade and passes for each option, so you know what you are getting before you buy.
First steps after getting your account
- Change the account password and the email password.
- Check the current banners and plan your pulls before spending.
- Claim the daily login and event rewards to keep your Jade growing.
