NTE v1.1 Second-Half Banner Guide — Save or Pull?
Global v1.1 second-half limited banner (Lakshana element): expected dates after Lacrimosa, pity carryover, and whether to save Annulith — character name TBC.
Fast Answer
Lacrimosa (Chaos · Jun 3–24) is the confirmed first-half banner. The second half is a Lakshana-element limited — character name TBC. One pity budget (~14,400 Annulith): pick first half or second half, not both unless you can hit hard pity twice.
What Is the v1.1 Second-Half Banner?
Global v1.1 runs **two limited character boards** in one patch cycle. **First half (Jun 3–24):** Lacrimosa — **Chaos element** DPS. **Second half (expected after Jun 24):** a **Lakshana-element** limited character — **name not officially confirmed** on Global as of last verified. Do not confuse this with Lacrimosa's Chaos element or with a character literally named Chaos.
Expected Schedule (Global · TBC)
Lacrimosa ends **June 24, 2026 (Global)**. The second-half board is **expected to open June 25+** — exact maintenance time TBC. We update /events and /banner#upcoming when official dates drop.
- First half: /banner · /characters/lacrimosa
- Second half: this page + /events upcoming card
- Patch hub: /patch-1-1
Pity Carryover (Reported)
Scarborough Fair limited boards **reportedly share pity** within the same patch cycle. If you pulled on Lacrimosa without hitting hard pity, counters **may** carry to the second-half board — **verify in-game** before spending. We label this **reported** until post-maintenance confirmation.
- Hard pity: 90 pulls (14,400 Annulith) per board if starting from zero
- No 50/50 on featured S-rank (same as Lacrimosa board)
- Tools: /gacha-calculator · /pity-tracker
Should You Save for the Second Half?
One pity budget (~14,400 Annulith) forces a choice — not both halves unless you can reach hard pity twice.
| Situation | Recommendation |
|---|---|
| Need Chaos Nightmare DPS now + have Lakshana support | **Pull Lacrimosa** on first half — see /characters/lacrimosa |
| Prefer Lakshana carries / want confirmed tier data | **Skip Lacrimosa** — save for second-half banner |
| Only ~30–50 pulls saved, not near pity | **Skip both** until you can commit to 90 pulls or confirm carryover |
| F2P first month still building Sakiri/Chiz core | **Skip limited** — standard selector + free units first (/f2p-guide) |
Element & Team Preview
Second-half unit is **Lakshana element** (reported). Plan Nightmare or Stain lanes with /esper-cycle. Lacrimosa teams use **Chaos + Lakshana** Nightmare — Daffodil and Hathor remain relevant if you pull Lacrimosa instead.

- When the character is announced: we add a /characters page and update /tier-list
FAQ
What is the v1.1 second-half banner character name?
Not officially confirmed on Global as of last verified. Expect a Lakshana-element limited — not Lacrimosa (Chaos). Watch /events and this page after Jun 24 maintenance.
Should I skip Lacrimosa for the second-half banner?
Skip Lacrimosa if one pity is your entire budget and you prefer Lakshana carries or want confirmed tier data. Pull Lacrimosa if you need Chaos Nightmare DPS now.
Does pity carry from Lacrimosa to the second half?
Reported yes for Scarborough Fair limited boards in the same v1.1 cycle. Verify your in-game counter before the second half opens.
