How To Prepare Your Account For The First Dragon Traveler Limited Banner
To prepare your account for the first Dragon Traveler limited banner, you need to front‑load free pulls, unlock the banner quickly, and plan around the game’s unusually generous pity system in 50‑pull blocks. Done right, you can secure the first limited “dream” unit without touching your wallet.
Understand how limited banners and pity work
Dragon Traveler’s summon rules heavily favour focused, planned spending.
- Standard pity:
- Limited‑banner “dream character” pity:
Limited banners unlock after you’ve done a chunk of summons on the base banner (CBT footage shows unlock after 40 pulls). This means your first job on a new account is just reaching that unlock as efficiently as possible.
Step 1: Stack free pulls before the banner
Launch marketing and guide breakdowns show you can reach around 100 free summons very early between pre‑reg rewards, day‑1 “Luxury Start” gifts, missions, and AFK income.
Do this before spending anything:
- Claim all pre‑registration and mailbox bundles, including the “100 free summons on Day 1” package promoted on official socials.
- Clear early Launch Celebration / mission tabs for extra tickets and Diamonds so you really are pulling with 100+, not just the mail bundle.
- Redeem any active gift codes for extra tickets and Diamonds; launch guides note these stack meaningfully on top of the baseline.
Your goal is to start summoning with enough currency to comfortably reach 50 pulls on a single banner once the first limited rate‑up appears.
Step 2: Unlock the limited banner without wasting pity
From CBT footage, limited banners unlock after you have done a fixed number of pulls on the normal banner. While exact numbers can change, the process is clear:
- Use regular tickets on the standard banner until the game tells you the limited banner is unlocked (in CBT this happened after 40 summons).
- Treat those pulls as “setup pity”: they still grant SRs and potentially SSRs, but your real target is unlocking the limited banner as soon as possible.
Do not start sprinkling Crystals across multiple banners; you want all Diamond‑to‑ticket conversions ready for the first limited rate‑up once it appears.
Step 3: Plan for a full 50‑pull cycle on the first limited
Once the first limited banner drops, you should already have a clear 50‑pull budget. Use these rules:
- Always pull on banners with the 50‑pull dream guarantee.
- Think in blocks of 50 pulls: if you cannot reach 50, keep saving; the system is tuned around that threshold.
- Use limited‑banner tickets and Crystals only on this banner until you either:
Never split your launch resources across two limited banners; pity is banner‑specific, and half‑finished pity bars are where free pulls get wasted.
Step 4: Route gameplay and AFK around banner timing
The game’s loop is literally “AFK → free pulls → dream guarantee,” so you should align your play with banner windows.
- During the first limited banner, push Brave Journey / story and other modes as far as you can to increase AFK stage level and unlock more missions that pay Diamonds and tickets.
- Use Quick Patrol / AFK quick‑claim after you clear a new wall so that the increased AFK rate feeds directly into more pulls within the banner window.
- Avoid spending Diamonds on anything that doesn’t move you toward that next 50‑pull block (no random shop buys, no cosmetic temptation during the first limited cycle).
Handled this way, stacking free pulls, unlocking limited banners efficiently, and treating 50 pulls as the minimum spending unit, your account will be properly set up to grab the very first Dragon Traveler limited unit on schedule, then repeat that pattern for future banners.
