Departure Warp Banners
So, Departure or Beginner Warp Banners is basically an introduction to the Gacha System of Honkai Star Rail. Thankfully, you get 20% discount on a set of 10 pulls in Departure Warp Banners. Which means, you will obtain 10 warps at the cost of 8. Moreover, it guarantees a 5-Star character within your first 50 warps and 4-Star character within every 10 warps.
