Version 3.7 of Wuthering Waves runs from September 30 to November 11, 2026, and packs two new 5-star Resonators, Hsin and Suoming, into back-to-back banners alongside a set of reruns. Because those banners share one 42-day cycle, knowing exactly how many pulls you can bank matters more than usual. Here is what the version hands out in Astrites, Radiant Tides, Lustrous Tides, and Forging Tides.
Quick answer: A free-to-play player can expect roughly 14,462 Astrites plus tides, which works out to about 112 pulls on the limited character banner, climbing to around 145 with a Lunite Subscription and the paid Pioneer Podcast.
These totals are pre-release estimates and can shift once every event and reward window is live in-game. Your real haul also depends on how much content you actually clear.
Total pulls in 3.7 by player type
The three tiers below cover the standard ways players earn currency in a patch. Radiant Tides feed the limited character banner, Forging Tides feed the limited weapon banner, and Lustrous Tides feed the permanent (standard) banner.
| Player type | Character pulls | Weapon pulls | Standard pulls |
|---|---|---|---|
| F2P | ~112 | 7 | 38 |
| + Lunite Subscription | ~135 | 7 | 38 |
| + Lunite and paid Pioneer Podcast | ~145 | 7 | 40 |
The exact figure varies a little depending on which reward chart you follow, with free-player estimates landing somewhere between roughly 106 and 113 character pulls. The 112-pull number reflects the full detailed breakdown covered below.
How Astrites convert into pulls
The exchange rate is fixed: 160 Astrites equals one pull, or you can spend one Tide ticket directly. So 14,462 Astrites is about 90 pulls on its own, and the 22 Radiant Tides push the character-banner total to roughly 112.
- Base 5-star rate is 0.8% per pull.
- Soft pity begins around pull 66, where the rate climbs sharply.
- Hard pity guarantees a 5-star at pull 80.
- On the character banner, every 5-star has a 50% chance to be the featured Resonator. If it isn’t, the following 5-star will be the featured one.
- The limited weapon banner has no 50/50, so every 5-star is the featured weapon.
- Pity and the guarantee from losing a 50/50 both transfer to another banner of the same type.
In practice a featured Resonator costs around 80 pulls in most cases, or up to 160 if you lose the 50/50 and need the guarantee. That means 112 free character pulls comfortably clears one guaranteed 5-star, with a healthy cushion toward a second.
Where the free Astrites come from
The bulk of a free player’s income splits between repeatable activities you log in for and one-time claims tied to new content. Daily missions alone give 60 Astrites a day across the 42-day run.
| Source | Astrites |
|---|---|
| Events | 3,890 |
| Daily missions | 2,520 |
| Exploration | 2,192 |
| Tower of Adversity | 1,600 |
| Fantasies of the Thousand Gateways | 960 |
| Whimpering Wastes | 800 |
| Version 3.7 update compensation | 600 |
| Endstate Matrix | 400 |
| Achievements | 390 |
| Quests | 350 |
| Version 3.8 livestream codes | 300 |
| Main story | 200 |
| Web events | 180 |
| Character trials | 80 |
Added together, that comes to 14,462 Astrites. Compensation and login rewards land in your in-game mailbox after maintenance, while livestream codes for the next version must be redeemed manually. Tower of Adversity resets more than once during the patch, so clear each cycle before its window closes to avoid leaving Astrites behind.
Tides and shop currency
Beyond raw Astrites, several sources hand out Tide tickets that count as pulls directly. A free player finishes the version with about 22 Radiant Tides, 38 Lustrous Tides, and 7 Forging Tides.
- Gifts of Singing Drizzle: 10 Radiant Tides.
- Coral Shop exchange: 7 Radiant Tides, 7 Forging Tides, 7 Lustrous Tides.
- 7-day login event: 5 Radiant Tides and 5 Lustrous Tides.
- Free Battle Pass and Exploration: additional Lustrous Tides.
The Coral Shop exchanges require enough Oscillate Coral to buy the tickets. If you are pulling for a featured character and short on Radiant Tides, prioritize those first.
What paid options add
Spending options stack on top of the free totals rather than replacing them. The Lunite Subscription is the bigger boost of the two.
| Paid option | Extra rewards | Roughly |
|---|---|---|
| Lunite Subscription | 3,780 Astrites | +23 pulls |
| Paid Pioneer Podcast | 680 Astrites, 5 Radiant Tides, 2 Lustrous Tides | +~10 pulls |
Running both alongside the free income brings a player to roughly 145 pulls on the limited character banner over the full patch.
Splitting your budget between Hsin and Suoming
Not every reward is available on day one, which changes how much you can spend on each banner. Hsin headlines Phase 1 as the new Electro Resonator, while Suoming leads Phase 2 and is built to pair closely with Hsin.
The 10 Radiant Tides from Gifts of Singing Drizzle arrive on October 22, when the Suoming banner opens. Since they come in the version’s second half, leave them out of your starting Hsin pull budget.
For a Hsin-first plan, lean on everything front-loaded in the patch: daily missions, new exploration, quests, the permanent event, and the Phase 1 events. Phase 2 then benefits from the later event payouts and the login rewards, so Suoming’s available pull pool differs from what you can spend at launch.
Confirming your own pull count
Check your in-game wallet: divide your Astrites by 160, then add that result to your character-banner Radiant Tide count. In Convene history, look up your pity and see if your previous 5-star lost the 50/50; both details carry over to 3.7’s banners. With more than roughly 80 pulls combined and no saved guarantee from a lost 50/50, you’re taking a chance on getting one copy. Reaching 160 pulls guarantees the featured Resonator, whatever the 50/50 result.
