JoJo: Golden Spirit Gacha & Summoning Explained
New to how summoning works in JoJo: Golden Spirit? The gacha uses three rarities — R (78%), SR (20%) and SSR (2%) — you pull with premium currency, a pity system guarantees an SSR every 60 pulls, and duplicates convert into fragments that raise a unit’s Star (1–5), so no pull is ever fully wasted. Here’s the confirmed system explained, plus the currencies you’re pulling with.
⚠️ Sourcing note: the rate table below is community-documented by jojowiki.com’s Golden Spirit hub article, not an official Devsisters rate disclosure. Always check the in-game rate disclosure on the specific banner you’re pulling — that’s the legally required, first-party number. Checked September 20, 2026.
The three rarities and their rates
Units and Stands come in three rarities. Per jojowiki.com’s Golden Spirit hub article, the base rarity rates are:
| Rarity | Base rate |
|---|---|
| SSR | 2.00% |
| SR | 20.00% |
| R | 78.00% |
SSRs headline the banners; R and SR units fill out your early roster while you build toward them. The closed beta ran with a 50-unit roster split into 11 SSR, 28 SR and 11 R — roughly one unit in five at the top rarity, close to the 2% pull rate once you account for repeat pulls landing on the same small pool.
The pity system
The same source documents a pity guarantee every 60 recruitments: on a permanent pool, that guarantee lands a random SSR; on a limited/rate-up pool, it guarantees the featured SSR specifically instead. Factoring the guarantee in, the effective SSR rate rises to 2.85%. This is community-documented, not an official Devsisters rate disclosure — see the pity guide for how to plan around it and what’s still unconfirmed.
The currencies you’ll summon with
The pre-registration reward list named the summoning economy before the game was even out. Milestones granted 600 Astrogem (the premium currency), 20 Stone of Destiny and 10 Card: Uncharted Fate. Based on how KLab’s other titles and the wider genre handle these item types, we expect the Stones and Cards to be dedicated summon items — their exact function hasn’t been independently confirmed here. All milestones were reached, so every account that pre-registered before August 13 started with the full set, plus a free SR Joseph Joestar — see the pre-registration rewards page for the full breakdown.
How summoning works
You spend premium currency to summon from banners. Save your pulls for banners that feature an SSR you actually want rather than spreading them thin — a focused pull is almost always better value than scattered ones. This matters double in Golden Spirit, because the game’s RUSH mode rewards teams built from different fighting styles: pulling toward a balanced core beats chasing three copies of the same archetype.
Duplicates and Star-up
Pulling a unit you already own isn’t wasted: duplicates convert into fragments that raise that unit’s Star (1–5), boosting its stats. So a copy of an SSR you’re already building is a real power increase, not a throwaway. It also softens the reroll question — an early SSR you keep using stays relevant as later copies stack its Stars. How many fragments each Star level needs is one of the numbers we can only confirm at launch.
What’s still not officially confirmed
Devsisters itself has not published a rate disclosure page we can cite directly — everything above is community-documented from jojowiki.com’s client-sourced wiki, not a Devsisters press release. Also still unconfirmed: whether a beginner or selector banner exists, exact fragment costs per Star, and whether any exchange/spark shop exists on top of the pity guarantee. Always trust the in-game rate disclosure on the specific banner over any third-party number, including this page’s.
Spend efficiently
- Bank currency before each new banner — spend in one strong block, not a trickle. Under the confirmed 60-pull pity, concentration is how you reach the guarantee with the fewest wasted off-banner pulls.
- If you haven’t claimed pre-registration rewards, check your mailbox — the 600 Astrogem and summon items are still there for any account that hasn’t collected them.
- Plan your opening summons with the reroll guide — a light reroll for one SSR carry or support is enough.
- Use the tier evidence tracker to compare attributed public claims without treating it as a recommendation, and redeem every active code before judging your luck.

FAQ
What’s the SSR rate? 2% base, community-documented (jojowiki.com), rising to an effective 2.85% once the 60-pull pity guarantee is factored in. Not an official Devsisters disclosure — always check the banner’s own rate screen.
Does pity guarantee a specific character? On permanent pools, the 60-pull pity gives a random SSR. On limited/rate-up pools, it guarantees the featured SSR specifically.
Do duplicate pulls have the same value for every unit? That cannot be assumed without the live conversion and upgrade-cost screens. Compare the fragment received with the next upgrade cost.

Frequently Asked Questions
What rarities are in JoJo: Golden Spirit?
Three: R, SR and SSR. SSR is the rarest tier and headlines the banners, while R and SR units fill out your early roster while you build toward the SSRs you actually want.
What happens to duplicate pulls?
Duplicates convert into fragments that raise that unit Star from 1 to 5, which boosts its stats. A duplicate SSR you are already investing in is a genuine power increase rather than a wasted pull.
What are the gacha rates and pity in Golden Spirit?
We have not verified the global launch build's exact drop rates, pity thresholds or banner schedule. Check the probability notice inside the active banner; closed-beta figures are historical and must not be treated as current rates.
What currencies do you summon with?
Astrogem is the premium currency, and the pre-registration rewards also named Stone of Destiny and Card: Uncharted Fate. Based on standard gacha conventions we expect the Stones and Cards to be dedicated summon items, but their exact function still hasn't been independently confirmed here.
Pull R / SR / SSR units. Duplicates become fragments that raise a unit’s Star, boosting its stats.
