Guardian Tales free pulls: how many Gems you earn per month without paying
Every pull in Guardian Tales costs 300 Gems. A free-to-play account that clears its routine content collects roughly 7,400–12,700 Gems a month, which converts into 24–42 pulls on the Pickup Event banner. Below is where that currency actually comes from, source by source, and what it means against a hard pity of 300.
The table only counts sources that repeat every month. Story rewards, achievements and other one-off bonuses are listed separately: they are a big head start for a new account, but they do not pay the next banner.
Where the free Gems come from each month
| Source | Gems / month | ≈ pulls |
|---|---|---|
| Daily missions | 900–1,200 | 3–4 |
| Weekly missions | 600–800 | 2 |
| Endgame modes (towers, raids, arena) | 2,000–3,000 | 6–10 |
| Limited-time events | 3,000–5,000 | 10–16 |
| Redeem codes & compensation mail | 900–2,700 | 3–9 |
| Monthly total (recurring only) | 7,400–12,700 | 24–42 |
How far 24–42 pulls a month get you on the Pickup Event banner
Hard pity on this banner sits at 300 pulls. Saving everything, a free player reaches hard pity in about 7–13 months, and the worst case for the featured unit (300 pulls) in about 7–13 months. With one month of pulls and no pity carried over, the chance of the featured unit is 49%–69%; with two months saved it climbs to 74%–90%.

One-time boosts for new accounts
These pay out once per account. They are not part of the monthly figure, but a fresh Guardian Tales account can pull far more in its first weeks than the recurring total suggests.
- Story chapters (first clear)
- Achievements & collection milestones
- Beginner & newcomer missions
If you spend a little
The cheapest recurring purchase in Guardian Tales is by far the best Gems-per-dollar deal in the shop. This is how much it adds on top of the free income:
- Monthly pass (~$5)+4,500–5,400 Gems / month ≈ +15–18 pulls
Turn the monthly income into a plan
Type your current pity and the Gems you already have into the Guardian Tales pity calculator to see your exact odds on the next banner, or use the savings planner on that page: it takes what you have, what you earn per week and the banner end date and tells you whether you will make it.
The monthly figures are a community estimate for Guardian Tales: they move with the event calendar, your progress and how much endgame content you clear. Treat the range as a realistic planning guide, not a guaranteed income.
