This Blue Archive pity calculator turns your pity counter into a real percentage. The Pickup banner guarantees a top-rarity drop by pull 200, with soft pity from pull 150 (the rate climbs from 2.5% to 5.5% on that pull and keeps rising). There is no coin flip on this banner: the guaranteed top-rarity drop is always the featured unit. Starting from zero pity, 10 pulls give you a 22% chance and you need about 28 pulls for a coin-flip 50%. Set your current pity and the pulls you have saved to see your own number. Blue Archive uses recruitment points: every pull adds one, and at 200 points you can exchange for the featured 3★ student. Points expire with the banner, so 24,000 Pyroxene is the number to have before you start.

How the Blue Archive Pickup pity system works
- Counter. Every pull without a top-rarity drop adds 1 to your pity. The counter resets to 0 the moment you get one — it does not reset when the banner rotates.
- Soft pity zone (pull 150 → 200). From pull 150 the per-pull rate jumps to about 5.5% and grows on each following pull. Most top-rarity drops in Blue Archive land inside this window, which is why the average is far below the hard cap.
- Hard pity (200). If you reach pull 200 without a drop, that pull is forced to be top rarity. From zero that costs 24,000 Pyroxene.
- Featured guarantee. The pity drop is always the featured unit, so 200 pulls (24,000 Pyroxene) is the true ceiling.
