Illusion Connect Reroll Guide: How to Make the Most of Your RNG

Card No. 06·5974 · Updated · Standard formula, shown below

This guide explains how to reroll efficiently in Illusion Connect, what to look for in your initial pulls, and how to maximize your chances of starting with a strong roster. You’ll learn the exact steps, the best targets, and common mistakes to avoid, so you can turn your RNG into a solid foundation without wasting hours.

Why Rerolling Matters in Illusion Connect

Illusion Connect is a gacha RPG where your early roster determines how smoothly you progress through story stages, PvP, and endgame content. The game gives you a limited number of free pulls at the start, and because SSR (Super Super Rare) units have low drop rates, many players choose to reroll—restarting the game repeatedly until they get a strong starting character. A good reroll can save you weeks of grinding and give you a unit that carries you through the first few chapters.

How the Gacha and Reroll System Works

In Illusion Connect, the standard banner has a 2% SSR rate, with a pity system that guarantees an SSR after 80 pulls. However, at the start of the game, you receive a number of free summons through beginner missions, login bonuses, and story rewards. The key to rerolling is to accumulate enough currency (Diamonds and Summon Tickets) to perform several multi-pulls, then reset your account if you don’t get a desired unit.

Rerolling is possible on both mobile and PC (via emulators). The process involves clearing the game’s cache or reinstalling, then going through the tutorial again. On mobile, you can also use the “guest� login option to avoid linking your account until you’re satisfied. On emulators, you can clone the instance to speed up the process.

Step-by-Step Reroll Process

Here’s the most efficient way to reroll, assuming you’re starting fresh:

  1. Install the game – Download Illusion Connect from your app store or emulator. Do not link any account yet.
  2. Complete the tutorial – Play through the first few stages until you unlock the Summon menu. This usually takes 5-10 minutes.
  3. Collect your free currency – Claim all mail rewards, complete beginner missions, and use any free summon tickets you’ve received.
  4. Perform your pulls – Use all your Diamonds and tickets on the standard banner (or the featured banner if it has a good unit). You should be able to do at least 2-3 multi-pulls (10x summons).
  5. Evaluate your results – If you get a top-tier SSR, keep the account. If not, reset and repeat.
  6. Reset the game – On mobile, clear the app data or reinstall. On emulator, delete the instance or use a multi-instance manager to create a fresh one.

To speed things up, you can run multiple emulator instances simultaneously, each with a different account, and check them all at once. This cuts the time per reroll significantly.

Which Units to Aim For

Not all SSRs are equal. Some units are far more useful in early and late game. Here are the top-tier units that are generally considered worth rerolling for:

  • Phoebe – A Light-element attacker with high single-target damage and a powerful ultimate. She’s excellent for boss fights and PvP.
  • Miyuki – A Fire-element mage with strong AoE damage and a passive that boosts her crit rate. Great for clearing waves.
  • Angela – A Light-element tank who also provides team-wide shields. She’s essential for surviving hard stages.
  • Yuffie – A Wind-element ranger with high mobility and consistent damage. She’s versatile and easy to gear.
  • Fenebeth – A Dark-element support who can silence enemies and heal allies. She’s a strong addition to any team.

Keep in mind that the meta can shift with balance patches, so check the latest tier lists before committing. However, the units above have been consistently strong for a long time.

How Many Pulls Should You Do Before Resetting?

The number of pulls you can do per reroll depends on how much currency you collect. Typically, you can accumulate enough for 20-30 pulls (2-3 multi-summons) within the first hour. Since the SSR rate is 2%, doing 30 pulls gives you roughly a 45% chance of seeing at least one SSR. That’s a decent baseline, but many players prefer to reroll until they get a specific SSR, which can take many attempts.

A common strategy is to stop rerolling once you get any SSR that is rated A or above on a tier list, rather than holding out for the absolute best. This saves time and lets you start playing. If you’re aiming for a specific unit, be prepared for a long session—on average, you might need 20-30 rerolls to get the one you want.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Rerolling can be tedious, and small mistakes can ruin an otherwise good account. Here are the most common pitfalls:

  • Linking your account too early – If you link to Google or Facebook before checking your pulls, you can’t reset that account. Always use guest mode until you’re happy.
  • Spending currency on the wrong banner – The standard banner has a wide pool, but featured banners often have rate-ups for specific units. If you want a featured unit, pull on that banner instead.
  • Ignoring SR units – Some SR units are nearly as good as SSRs, especially for early game. Don’t discard an account just because you didn’t get an SSR; a good SR team can carry you for a while.
  • Deleting the game instead of clearing cache – On mobile, clearing the app data is faster than a full reinstall. On emulators, use the multi-instance feature to avoid re-downloading.
  • Not using emulators for speed – If you’re on PC, an Android emulator with multi-instance can cut reroll time by 70% compared to mobile.

Tips to Speed Up the Process

Here are some practical ways to make rerolling less painful:

  • Use an emulator with multi-instance – Programs like LDPlayer or BlueStacks let you run several instances at once, each with its own account. You can start multiple rerolls in parallel.
  • Skip dialogue and cutscenes – The tutorial has a lot of text; tap through it as fast as possible. Some stages can be auto-battled.
  • Set up a macro – If you’re comfortable with automation, you can record a macro that repeats the tutorial steps, freeing you to do other things.
  • Do rerolls during double-rate events – Occasionally the game holds events with increased SSR rates. If you can wait, rerolling during those events greatly improves your odds.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does a single reroll take?

On mobile, a full reroll (install to first multi-pull) takes about 10-15 minutes. On an emulator with macros and multiple instances, you can reduce that to 3-5 minutes per account, since you’re doing several at once.

Can I reroll on iOS?

Yes, but it’s more tedious. You need to delete the app and reinstall, or use a device that allows you to clear the app’s data. You cannot easily clone apps on iOS, so most serious rerollers use Android emulators on PC.

Should I reroll for a specific SSR or just any SSR?

If you’re patient, aim for a top-tier unit like Phoebe or Miyuki. But if you just want to start playing, any SSR is a good start—you can always pull more later. The game gives you plenty of free currency in the first week, so a mediocre SSR isn’t a dead end.

Is it worth rerolling after I’ve already linked my account?

No—once linked, the account is tied to that email or social profile. You’d have to create a new account entirely. If you’ve already linked, you’re better off continuing with what you have, as rerolling would mean losing all progress.

What should I do with duplicate SSRs?

Duplicates can be used to upgrade the unit’s “Awakening� level, which increases stats and unlocks passive skills. It’s usually better to keep duplicates for a top-tier unit rather than convert them to currency, unless you’re desperate for shards.

Does the game have a pity system that carries over between banners?

Yes, the pity counter carries over between banners of the same type (standard vs. limited). So if you’ve done 50 pulls on the standard banner, the next 30 will guarantee an SSR, even if a new banner comes out. This is important to know when deciding whether to keep an account.
