What's the Honkai Star Rail Standard Warp banner?

Honkai Star Rail's Standard Warp is a permanent banner, much like the standard Genshin Impact banner. There's a standard pool of three- to five-star characters, light cones, and items for you to pull. You're guaranteed at least one four-star or higher object or character every ten warps, and at least one five-star or higher object or character every 90 warps.

Additionally, after 300 pulls on the standard banner, you can choose one of the standard pool of five-star characters.

To celebrate HSR's second anniversary, Hoyoverse added Blade, Fu Xuan, and Seele to the standard pool, as well as the Celestial Invitation system, which allows you to choose seven out of the ten standard characters you want to keep in your pool. Hoyoverse also introduced a new system where, if you obtain a duplicate of a five-star character with maxed Eidolons twice, you can claim a Golden Companion Spirit, which allows you to purchase a five-star character from the in-game store.

Here are the five-star characters featured on the standard banner (you can choose seven out of ten):

What's the Honkai Star Rail Beginner Warp banner?

The Beginner Warp banner, also known as the Departure Warp, is a banner aimed at giving beginners a running start. It offers a 20% discount off a set of ten warps, meaning you only need to spend eight warp tickets to get ten pulls. You can pull a total of 50 times on this banner.

When pulling, you're guaranteed to get at least one four-star or higher every ten warps, and one five-star before you complete all 50 warps. The beginner banner features all of the characters and light cones from the standard banner, so check the list above to see what you can pull.
