Blue Archive Recruitment Revamp Details Explained

Overview

Blue Archive's recruitment system changed with the 2025-11-10 update, and Nexon has now published detailed explanatory materials to clarify how the revamp works. The official forum post includes a PDF and a video with English subtitles (select CC), covering before-and-after comparisons and examples. For more Blue Archive news and guides, visit the game hub.

The revamp replaces the old Recruitment Points system with a new Recruitment Charges system, altering pity mechanics and adding a mileage reward track. This guide summarizes the official materials and explains what the changes mean for your pull planning.

What Changed

The core change is the shift from Recruitment Points to Recruitment Charges. Under the old system, recruiting on a banner accumulated points that could be used for pity or exchanged. The new system introduces Charges, which function differently for pity and carryover.

According to the official explanatory materials, the revamp includes:

• A new Charges system that tracks recruitment progress.
• Revised pity thresholds and carryover rules.
• A mileage reward track that grants additional rewards based on recruitment activity.

Step-by-Step: How to Use the New System

1. Review the official materials. Download the PDF from the forum post and watch the video with CC enabled. This is the most accurate source for exact numbers and examples.
2. Check your current Charges. After the update, your recruitment progress is now tracked as Charges. Log in and verify your balance on the recruitment screen.
3. Plan your pulls around the new pity. The pity threshold may differ from the old 200-point system. Confirm the new requirement before spending pyroxene.
4. Track your mileage rewards. The mileage track grants rewards at certain milestones. Check the rewards list in-game to see what you can earn.
5. Adjust your savings goal. If you were saving for a spark, recalculate how many pulls you need under the new system.

Pity and Carryover: What We Know

The official post does not specify exact pity numbers or carryover rules in the text; those details are in the PDF and video. However, the revamp is confirmed to reset pity and introduce a new mileage system.

Impact on Free Pulls and Banners

The revamp coincides with the 200 Free Recruitments event running from 2026-11-10 to 2026-11-17 (UTC). Free pulls count toward the new Charges system, so they can help you reach pity or mileage milestones. For details on how the free pulls work, see our guide: Blue Archive 200 Free Pulls Event Guide.
