Lacrimosa vs Chaos — which banner should you pull?

F2P players have roughly **75–90 pulls per patch** from dailies and events — enough for one hard pity, not two. This is the most important decision of v1.1.

• **Pull Lacrimosa (ends June 24)** if: you lack a main DPS, you want Chaos Nightmare DoT teams, or you have pity carried from Hotori banner.
• **Save for Chaos (June 24–July 8)** if: your teams already clear content, you want the first limited male character, or you specifically need Lakshana DPS.
• **Pity carries** from Lacrimosa's Fading Reverie board into Chaos's Forsaken Path board — every pull counts.
• **Chaos banner is only 14 days** vs Lacrimosa's 21 days — don't leave the Chaos decision until last minute.
• Full pull verdict with Annulith math: /banner · Chaos build: /characters/chaos
