Banner Changes

The maintenance will bring an end to the current Pick-Up Recruitments for Kisaki (Swimsuit) and Shun (Swimsuit). These two summer-themed 3★ students have been available since 2025-10-13 and will leave the pool at 2025-10-27 01:59 UTC (just before maintenance). Any remaining Recruitment Points you have accumulated on these banners will be reset, so make sure to use them before the deadline.

Looking ahead, the next set of banners will also conclude on 2025-11-03 02:00 UTC. This includes the recruitments for Hikari, Nozomi, Saori (Swimsuit), Hiyori (Swimsuit), and Misaki (Swimsuit). Additionally, the Recollection Recruitment will end, and its points will reset. If you're targeting any of these students, plan your pulls accordingly.

Should You Pull?

With the Kisaki (Swimsuit) and Shun (Swimsuit) banners ending, this is your last chance to obtain them. Both are limited 3★ units, and their availability is not guaranteed to return soon. For F2P players, evaluate your Pyroxene stash: if you're close to pity (200 pulls), it might be worth finishing. Otherwise, consider saving for future banners, especially if you're eyeing the 11/3 lineup. Low-spenders should weigh the value of these units against upcoming releases. As always, pull responsibly.

Events & Rewards

The The Calm After the Storm event story will also come to an end with this maintenance. The event period concludes on 2025-10-27, and the special task period for event story completion will close. However, the reward claim and exchange period will remain open until 2025-11-03 02:00 UTC, giving you a week to collect any unclaimed rewards. Don't forget to spend your event currency before it expires.

Additionally, the Grand Assault against Hovercraft (Field Warfare) will have its ranking and total points reward claim period end on 2025-11-03 02:00 UTC. If you participated, make sure to claim your rewards before then.

QoL & Systems

The Pyroxene Shop will see the end of the Weekly AP Pack IV sale on 2025-10-27. If you regularly purchase this pack, consider grabbing it before it's gone. No other shop changes were announced.

Pre-Patch To-Dos

• Claim all rewards from The Calm After the Storm event and exchange event currency.
• Use any remaining Recruitment Points on the Kisaki (Swimsuit) and Shun (Swimsuit) banners.
• Check your Grand Assault rewards and claim them if you haven't.
• Purchase the Weekly AP Pack IV if you need the extra AP.
• Complete any other time-sensitive tasks before maintenance begins.

The maintenance start time can vary by a minute or two depending on your device, so it's recommended to finish these tasks at least 5 minutes before 02:00 UTC.

Day-1 Priorities

Once the maintenance concludes, log in to claim your 360 Pyroxene compensation. Check for any new events or banners that may have started (details to be announced later). If you were pulling on the ending banners, verify your roster and plan your next moves.

Unconfirmed — subject to change

Further maintenance details, including new content and events, will be provided at a later date. No additional information is available at this time. Any leaks or rumors should be treated as unconfirmed until officially announced.

Conclusion

The 2025-10-27 maintenance is a transitional period for Blue Archive, closing out the summer swimsuit banners and The Calm After the Storm event. With 360 Pyroxene as compensation, it's a good time to tie up loose ends and prepare for the next wave of content. Stay tuned to EarlyGG for more Blue Archive coverage.
