Reroll method
You can use the same login info to reroll by deleting your user data through the in-game menu once you're done - this means there's no need to create dummy emails for every reroll attempt.
How long each reroll takes?
Each reroll takes about 20 minutes to play through the entire tutorial. Dialogue has a fast-forward button, but no skip button.
How many pulls you're able to do per reroll?
Sadly, we don't know that - everyone will receive 20 Rescue Anchors from the pre-register which translates to 20 pulls, but outside of that there might be additional pulls from codes or release celebration.

Why Should I Reroll for Khalipe?
The short answer is that she makes the game a lot easier:
- Big Shields = Roguelike is much easier.
- Great AoE damage = Farming is easier and faster.
- Universal Break with Tenacity damage = Good regardless of enemy attribute weakness.
Shielders are extremely important for the Chaos roguelike, one of the main progression systems in the game. Chaos Zero Nightmare’s Chaos roguelike inflicts Stress on your Combatants every time they take damage. If a Combatant takes too much Stress, they suffer a Breakdown. Breakdowns reduce your total Max HP, replace all of that Combatant’s cards with Breakdown cards, and inflict Stress on the other Combatants. You have to play 5 Breakdown cards to recover, after which the Combatant will continue taking 4 Stress every turn of combat for the rest of the run. Having enough Shields to block all damage will prevent that spiral from happening.
Khalipe outputs a great amount of Shielding while also constantly cheating out her 3-cost AoE attack for free. She also shreds all enemy Tenacity with [Overpower], allowing you to Break easier for more AP and Stress recovery. Her power as a main DPS/Shielder hybrid means you can afford to bring pure supports in your last two team slots for even more damage. Khalipe brings so much defensive utility, damage, and consistency that we recommend rerolling for her.
Notable 4★ and Dupe Breakpoints
Here are some notable 4★ to look out for while you’re rerolling:
- Cassius: General support with a lot of card draw. E1 allows his tutor card [Joker] to also search the Discard Pile.
- Nia: Potent offensive support with Morale and Extra Action buffs. Can cheat out cards in the Draw Pile with [Adagio]. Complete at E0.
- Maribell: Great general Shielder if you don’t want to use Khalipe. Sports a decent amount of counterattacks and single-target damage. Complete at E0.
- Mika: While Mika is great at E0 (which you get for free), her E1 grants her upgrade [Outbreak of War] for added consistency, and her E6 speeds up her AP generation considerably by lowering the Wave (Tide) requirement to 2 stacks.
- : Rachel’s Ego Skill is cheap and offers great emergency shields while also drawing a card. She’s also available in the Zeronium Shop.Rachel
