Featured Resonator Convene Rates & Pity System

The standard limited-time banner in Wuthering Waves is the Featured Resonator Convene. Convenes follow fixed probability rates and pity mechanics published by Kuro Games.

The base drop rate for a 5-star Resonator is 0.800%. If a player does not obtain a 5-star Resonator within 64 pulls, soft pity begins at Convene 65, progressively raising 5-star probability until reaching hard pity at 80 Convenes, which guarantees a 5-star Resonator.

When a 5-star Resonator is obtained, there is a 50% probability that it is the featured promotional rate-up Resonator. If the obtained Resonator is not the featured character, the next 5-star Resonator is guaranteed to be the featured promotional Resonator, setting the maximum guarantee threshold at 160 Convenes.

Pity progress and the guaranteed promotional character status carry over between consecutive Featured Resonator Convene banners. You can model pull outcomes for specific Astrite and Convene budgets using the Wuthering Waves Summon Calculator at /wuthering-waves/summon-calculator/.
