Neo Artifacts Reroll Guide: How to Reroll Fast and Who to Aim For (2026)

Should you even reroll?

Honest answer up front: rerolling in Neo Artifacts is optional, and the game does a lot to make it so. The beginner banner already hands you guaranteed Pristine units, and the pity system means nothing you pull is truly wasted. You will not brick an account by skipping the reset grind.

That said, if you want the single strongest early unit in hand before you start the story, a few quick resets can get you there. Here is the clean way to do it and who to actually chase.

The reroll loop, step by step

The trick is to start with Guest Login so you never bind the account you might delete. Then:

1. Tap Guest Login on the title screen. Do not link Google, Apple, or another account yet.
2. Skip the intro and dialogue to reach playable content fast.
3. Clear the opening tutorial stages to unlock your mailbox.
4. Claim everything in the mailbox, including launch and pre-registration rewards. This is your pull currency, things like the Calibration Cradle and Resonance Crystals.
5. Pull the New Hire Recruitment banner and see your results.
6. If you are not happy, either reset through the account management menu or, faster, wipe the app data or spin up a fresh emulator instance and start again.

Each full loop runs about 8 to 12 minutes. That adds up, which is the real reason rerolling is a personal call rather than a must.

What the New Hire Recruitment banner gives you

This is the beginner banner, and it is generous. You get three separate 10-pulls, and each 10-pull guarantees one Pristine Artifacter. After all three, you review the saved sets and keep the one you like best. So even a clean account walks away with a strong Pristine without any resetting.

On top of that, a fresh account banks a healthy stack of premium currency from the mailbox, early stages, and login rewards. Treat the headline pull totals you see floating around as a ceiling you reach by grinding, not a starting balance.

Who to reroll for

Two independent tier lists from May and June 2026 line up on the same top names:

• Starry Night (Sniper) is the standout single target. A ranged burst DPS that two different community lists place at the top for damage, and a name beginners can build a whole team around. If you only chase one unit, chase this one.
• Sunflower (Strategist) is the other top-tier pick, a control and support unit that shows up at the top of every list I checked.
• Li Bronze Vessel (Strategist) is the premier support: extra turns, damage buffs, and turn manipulation. Some players value a good support over a second carry early on.
• Sword of Goujian (Striker) is a reliable melee DPS with chain damage, a solid fallback if your banner refuses to cooperate.

Names in Neo Artifacts come from real artworks and relics, so a few sources spell them slightly differently in localization. Starry Night, Sunflower, and Sword of Goujian are the consistent top picks across guides. ⚠️ Treat any single Sniper or Strategist label as the current consensus, not a locked stat sheet.

Why pity takes the pressure off

Even if you skip resets entirely, you are guaranteed a Pristine within 70 pulls, and the Mileage shop lets you trade roughly 160 pulls worth of currency for any unit you want. Limited banners run a 50/50 on the featured Pristine, with the next guaranteed Pristine locked to the feature if you lose the flip. Because progress always banks toward something, a patient no-reroll player still gets where they are going.

Bottom line

Reroll if you want Starry Night in hand on turn one and you do not mind a few 10-minute loops. Skip it if you would rather start playing and lean on the guaranteed New Hire Pristines plus the 70-pull pity. Both work, which is exactly why this is a choice.
