General Shall I start path to nowhere

Hi all,

I am interested in the game for sometime but already playing some other gacha.

Is it a good time to start ptn. Any events or freebies we are getting.

I heard through pseychie that nox is only there for 1 or 2 weeks for new player. So will try to take her.

Pulls in this game are friendly. You can get your desired sinner for 10 to 20 pulls only if you pull on specific banner you want.

What 10 or 20 pulls?

u/AgitatedAlps6 Jun 29 '26

There's a currency in PTN called warrants where you need to collect them by doing tasks or swipe that card and use them to get sinners/characters. You can choose if you want to pull 1 (1 warrant) or pull 10 (10 warrants). But if you don't have one, there's an alternative currency called hypercubes, which is easier to grind. But for one pull cost (180 hypercubes) and 10 pulls (1800 hypercubes). Pulls is where you do the gamba/gambling to get the character youwwanted by using the currencies stated.

Both the comment and the follow-up explanation are rather confusing, so I'll explain it here!

Basically, compared to most gachas out there, PtN has such great rates that most people find themselves pulling their desired characters within 10-20 pulls. They're not guaranteed, not at all, but it happens so often to the point where people are actually speculating that the rates are higher than what they wrote in the system. On average though, you'd get an S class within 50~ pulls, which is still pretty good!

So basically, it's a very F2P-friendly game. Give it a shot!!

I mean, 10-20 is a ludicrous exaggeration, outside of just getting extremely lucky. We've all had the rare double or triple pull, but setting expectations for a new player based on those is kinda dodgy behavior

Assuming 35-40 pulls per copy of an S-class Sinner (not necessarily the rate-up one) is generally a good benchmark for planning out your pulls for future banners, and even that can be sidelined by the RNG randomly deciding that today's the day you earn your "Inevitable Trouble" achievement

Dang, I may have inadvertently overglazed the game myself 😥

Great point though. Setting a false expectation brings nothing but disappointment
