Reverse: 1999 Reroll guide

Rerolling is not a must, as the game is fairly generous, and you can clear all content with whomever you want.

However, if you’re looking for a head start or for a character in specific, rerolling is a very worthwhile option, that can take between 7 and 10 minutes.

The first thing you will need to prepare if you plan to reroll is your phone or an emulator. While the game has a PC client available and the Guest Account feature is there, the only way to reset it is by reinstalling the whole game. By comparison, when using an emulator, you can abuse the master instance trick to quickly restart the process.

Reroll on your phone

While Reverse:1999 has a Guest Account system, it takes 15 days to delete it (via Support) and what's worse, Clearing Cache doesn't remove the Guest Account. We also tried reinstalling the game, rooting the device and none of the less-intrusive methods seem to work. This means that the only option for you to reroll on mobile is using the Salt Method.

The Salt Method abuses a mechanic available in Google Gmail. Here's how it works:

• To use a salted email, you add a +anything between the name and the @gmail portion of your e-mail address when you create an account. For example, if your gmail account name is myname@gmail.com, a salted e-mail would be myname+anything@gmail.com.
• The string behind the + symbol can be any letters or numbers of any length. Still, to easily keep track of rerolled accounts, we recommend using numbers - so the email you will use to register will look like this myname+1@gmail.com. Any e-mails sent to a salted e-mail will be redirected to the e-mail without the salt used (and you will receive a code to input in the client to confirm account creation).

If you're super serious about rerolling, we suggest to create a sheet or a txt file where you will track what salted account got what pulls.

Once you're done with rolling, you can simply bind the account using Google or Facebook to avoid using the salt email to login.

Also, for iOS users - we're not sure if reinstalling the game will remove the guest account, but most likely it won't. So you will have to reroll on an Android device, PC or emulator, bind the account and then play on your default device.

Reroll on an emulator

This option is better for those who have a decent PC and can handle multiple instances at once - or just can reroll using a single instance. Since the game is turn-based and reaching the place where you can reroll takes roughly 10 minutes, it's easy to synchronize your instances and not lose your mind while you're doing it.

Most events feature characters who are either meta defining or have the current and future patches favoring them. This guarantees a strong head start for a new account, especially since you can power level these new units by using the event shop. If you are unsure about the current banner, check out our “Should you Pull?” guides to see if that character is the right choice for you. Checking the Tier List is also good since our Tier List is updated regularly based on the CN version, so you can feel confident that your investment will last several months.

Another option is to pull on a rate up banner for a past character, or stick with a character from the standard pool who spooked you in the event banner. There are numerous characters on the standard roster who stood the test of time and are excellent investments to guarantee a smooth start to your account.

Disclaimer: In general, Damage Dealers are unlikely to be listed as general Reroll targets. Speaking from the current place of the meta, the Damage Dealer options that we have are all either tied to specific Archetypes (making them hard to recommend for players starting out) or Limited characters (making them… well, not always available).

Despite this, if you’re looking to get into teambuilding towards specific Archetypes early it may help to look at our Teambuilding Database or Guide (soon to be updated) to see what kind of gimmicks are currently supported. Keep in mind that ANY character (except for ones explicitly called Limited) will be added to the standard character pool 3 patches after their release.

Kakania

Archetypes: General, Poison

Pros & Cons:

• The best general Support in the game.
• Incredible defensive anchor; passively absorbs a percentage of all incoming damage and periodically heals team-wide.
• Can grant a ramping ATK Bonus through [Solace]. One of the few targetable ATK Bonus buffs in the game.
• Deals highly consistent Genesis DMG to all enemies; will out-DPT a lot of dedicated Damage Dealers in extended fights.
• Does all of this while remaining relatively AP+ depending on content.

• Can’t be used as solo sustain in the end-game (you will need a dedicated Healer or Shielder).
• Archetype specific units such as Charon, Sentinel or Flutterpage may win out due to supporting a specific gimmick, which Kakania doesn’t.

Support

Fatutu

Archetypes: General, Bloodtithe

Pros & Cons:

• The best general Healer in the game.
• Great healing output in the right teams; equalizes team-wide HP, heals on [Spirit Shell] bounces and divides incoming damage across all team members.
• Applies a ramping debuff through [Spirit Shell] that massively increases the enemy’s damage taken from Follow-Up Attacks.
• Provides consistent Follow-Up Attacks and has a generally smooth cycle on her Ultimate to keep [Shell Beacon] applied and maximize her offensive support.

• Provides little to absolutely none offensive benefits unless the team has important Follow-Up Attacks that they throw out regularly.
• Healing output is dependent on how often you’re hitting enemies that carry [Spirit Shell]s and how often you can reapply the debuff.

Sustain

Melania

Archetypes: Moxie/Ultimate, Bloodtithe, Dynamo

Pros & Cons:

• Great and consistent single-target damage output with Ultimate spam.
• Provides one of the best ramping buffs in [Fixed Plan], stacking large amounts of Ultimate Might, Ultimate Crit Rate & Ultimate Crit DMG very easily.
• Can cheese certain stages by routinely stealing enemy Moxie and preventing them from casting Ultimates.
• Slots very well into the current meta teams (Bloodtithe, Dynamo, Moxie).

• Requires her Euphoria to provide most of the pros here.
• The [Fixed Plan] stacking is quite a bit slower and requires more AP for Melania when not used in a Moxie team specifically.
• Year 1 unit so slightly more prone to rating changes.

Sub Carry

Semmelweis

Archetypes: Bloodtithe

Pros & Cons:

• Provides pretty much every offensive buff in the game (DMG Bonus, Crit Rate, Crit DMG, FUA DMG Bonus). Also has access to powerful defensive buffing (HP Bonus, DMG Reduction, Healing Bonus).
• Deals unhealthy amounts of damage when kept at low HP values with [Truth Revealed]. Can be slotted into the Damage Dealer slot without making content harder.
• Really consistently generates [Bloodtithe] through her [Blood Domain] Array and [Fresh Blood] buff (if cast on an AP- Damage Dealer).
• Synergizes decently with other Reroll targets (Fatutu, Kakania).

• Requires her Euphoria to provide most of the pros here.
• Is dependent on her Array, preventing you from combining her with other Array users.
• Quite Archetype-specific.

Below you can find the gacha rules, rates, and characters available on the standard pool.

Summoning Rates

• Basic rate of summoning 6 star characters: 1.5%
• Basic rate of summoning 5 star characters: 8.5%
• Basic rate of summoning 4 star characters: 40%
• Basic rate of summoning 3 star characters: 45%
• Basic rate of summoning 2 star characters: 5%.

Every 10 summons guarantees at least 1 4-star or better character. Under this rule, the overall chance of drawing a 6✦ is 2,36%. If you have not obtained any 6✦ character after 60 summons, the rate of summoning a 6✦ character in the next summon will rise from 1.5% to 4%. After that, every summon that doesn’t grant a 6✦ character will increase the rate by 2.5%.

• Every 70 summons guarantees 1 6✦ character.
• After you have obtained a 6✦ character, the rate will be reset to 1.5%.
• On limited and rate up banners, there’s a 50% chance you will get the featured character. If you lose the first 50/50, then the next 6✦ is guaranteed to be the featured character.
• Pity is shared between Limited and Rate Up banners, and it carries over as well.

Duplicate Characters:

• When you obtain the same 6-star character for the 2nd-6th time, the duplicate character will be converted into 1 Artifice of the character and 12 Albums of the Lost every time; starting from the 7th time, the duplicate character will be converted into 28 Albums of the Lost every time.
• When you obtain the same 5-star character for the 2nd-6th time, the duplicate character will be converted into 1 Artifice of the character and 3 Albums of the Lost every time; starting from the 7th time, the duplicate character will be converted into 7 Albums of the Lost every time.
