Honkai: Star Rail Version 4.6, titled "Dance With the Beast Before Moonrise," runs from September 28 to November 11, 2026, bringing a flagship story event, a new permanent minigame, recurring double-drop stages, and one banner that stays live for the whole patch: the debut 5★ Pearl (Ice, Elation).
Whether you are saving for Pearl, a rerun, or a future 5.0 character, knowing your estimated Version 4.6 pull count helps you plan your warps without wasting Stellar Jade.
Need extra Oneiric Shard before you commit? You can top up Honkai: Star Rail through TOPUPlive, with instant delivery and a secure checkout — so your pity budget is covered before Pearl's banner ends.
Below is the estimated free-to-play income across all permanent and limited-time sources in 4.6. Numbers are based on a full 6-week patch and the rewards HoYoverse has officially scheduled.
Reward Source |
Stellar Jade |
Star Rail Special Passes |
Star Rail Passes |
|---|---|---|---|
Daily & Weekly Rewards | ≈3,000 | — | 5 |
Events & Login Rewards | ≈2,600 | 10 | — |
Version & Update Rewards | ≈1,500 | 5 | 6 |
Missions & Exploration | ≈1,800 | — | — |
Achievements & Other Rewards | ≈1,500 | — | 4 |
Total | ≈10,400 | 15 | 15 |
For F2P players, the estimated ≈10,400 Stellar Jade converts to about 65 pulls at 160 Jade per warp, and the 15 free Star Rail Special Passes bring your total to roughly 80 limited warps over Version 4.6. The 15 free Star Rail Passes go on the regular Departure/Stellar Warp and do not help on limited banners.
Players who buy the Express Supply Pass or the Nameless Honor battle pass can stretch that income noticeably further:
Reward Type | F2P | Express Supply Pass | Nameless Honor |
|---|---|---|---|
Stellar Jade | ≈10,400 | ≈13,300 | ≈14,000 |
Star Rail Special Passes | 15 | 15 | 19 |
Star Rail Passes | 15 | 15 | 15 |
Estimated total limited pulls | ≈80 | ≈98 | ≈106 |
Keep in mind a limited 5★ guarantees at pity 90 (soft pity begins around 74), and securing a character plus their signature Light Cone realistically budgets 160–240 pulls — so the free 80 warps comfortably cover one guaranteed limited character but only part of a "character + LC" stack.
Pearl's "An Ocean in a Pearl" warp runs the entire version, so you do not have to panic-spend in Phase 1. The second featured slot swaps once mid-patch.
Phase | Dates | 5★ Characters | Signature Light Cones |
|---|---|---|---|
Phase 1 | Sep 28 – Oct 21, 2026 |
Pearl (Ice, Elation)
Evanescia rerun (Physical, Elation) | Colors for Tomorrow · Until the Flowers Bloom Again |
Phase 2 | Oct 21 – Nov 10, 2026 |
Pearl (Ice, Elation)
Mortenax Blade rerun (Fire, Nihility) | Reforged in Hellfire |
The rate-up 4-stars — Qingque, Xueyi, and Misha — stay boosted on every character banner in the patch, so they are easy to build while you chase Pearl.

To hit the numbers above, clear these limited-time activities before they vanish. The flagship event pays out the largest single chunk.
Event | Dates | What it gives |
|---|---|---|
Love, Ghosts & Robots (flagship story event) | Sep 28 – Nov 11 | Largest Stellar Jade payout in 4.6 |
Astral Imagea (collection event) | Sep 28 – Nov 11 | Stellar Jade + upgrade materials |
Wishpower UP! Down with Voracity | Sep 28 – Nov 11 | ×500 Stellar Jade + ×18 Trendible Vouchers |
Gift of Odyssey (login reward) | Sep 28 – Nov 11 | Free Stellar Jade and passes |
Interastral Peace Gala: One Take | Oct 21 – Nov 11 | Phase 2 event rewards |
Astral Slammers Squad! | Sep 28 (permanent) | First-clear Stellar Jade + achievements |
Planar Fissure | Oct 12 – Oct 25 | Double Relic drops (not Jade, but saves fuel) |
Garden of Plenty | Oct 30 – Nov 11 | Double Calyx materials |
Daily Training should still be your default — 60 Stellar Jade per day across the 42-day patch alone adds up. Finish the new Companion Missions and explore the new area to bank the Missions & Exploration row.
Still grinding hard but struggling to gather enough Oneiric Shards for your desired Characters and Light Cone? Head over to TOPUPlive now for streamlined Honkai: Star Rail top-up arrangements tailored for your in-game needs.
F2P players can earn roughly 10,400 Stellar Jade plus 15 Special Passes, equal to about 80 limited warps from September 28 to November 11.
Yes. Pearl's "An Ocean in a Pearl" warp runs from the September 28 update until November 10, 2026. Evanescia reruns in Phase 1 and Mortenax Blade reruns in Phase 2, so you can wait and pull Pearl whenever your pity lines up.
At roughly S$6.98 it adds about 2,900 extra Stellar Jade over the patch (≈18 more pulls) and is the best value per dollar if you plan to login daily all six weeks.
If you do not need an Elation Ice carry or any of the reruns, banking your ~80 pulls for 5.0 is reasonable. If you want Pearl, remember her banner does not return on a set schedule, so waiting costs future flexibility.
Version 4.6 hands free-to-play players about 80 limited pulls (≈10,400 Stellar Jade + 15 Special Passes), with the Express Supply Pass and Nameless Honor pushing that to roughly 98–106 pulls. Pearl's full-version banner gives you the luxury of deciding between her, Evanescia, and Mortenax Blade without missing the deadline.
For any top-up needed to secure Pearl or her Light Cone, follow TOPUPlive for safe payments, competitive Oneiric Shard prices, and more Honkai: Star Rail deals.
