Start your adventure in Ash Echoes with the best character using our Reroll Guide.
Last updated: 30/10/2024
Should you reroll?
No.
Rerolling in Ash Echoes is pretty much pointless. You get a free 6✦ selector at 30 summons, then another 6✦ selector at 300 summons, and a free random 6✦ by progressing through the beginner missions and finishing Chapter 3. Yes, that's three 6✦ characters!
While it’s true that you can start the game with a Guest Account, deleting the Guest Account won’t work, as its data will be bound to your device. You can delete an account bound to an email, but it will take a few business days for the process to be completed. This limits your rerolling to emulators where you can create multiple instance quite easily. Furthermore, the entire rerolling process can take up to 15 minutes of playing manually through the entirety of the Prologue.
If despite all these warnings you still wish to proceed… here are some tips.
How to Reroll
There are a couple of ways to go about it.
The first one is by using several emails - one for each attempt.
The second one is by using the Multi-Instance function in an emulator, and creating a Guest account for each attempt. Note that this method requires a PC that can handle multiple instances at once, and due to the nature of Ash Echoes’ gameplay, they may go out of sync easily.
Regardless of your choice, it’s advised that you keep a doc or sheet to take notes of your attempts until you’re satisfied with your starter account.
If you're planning to reroll using Emulator, we suggest using LDPlayer! You can download it from the link below and by doing so, support the website!

Tips for the Best Starter Account
After going through the Prologue and claiming your resources, you’ll face two types of banners: Echomancers (Characters) and Memory Traces (Cards). The ideal reroll means getting at least one 6✦ Echomancer and at least one SSR Memory Trace with the initial resources. If you don’t want to spend too much time rerolling, guaranteeing a 6✦ with the starter resources is enough.
Who to Aim For
Typically, the featured rate up character will be a good choice to start with. All new releases in Ash Echoes so far have been good additions, and usually, each patch is tailored for the current rate up Echomancer, which will guarantee you a smooth start. Another option of initial banner to go for is the Standard Rate up. While Ash Echoes doesn’t have any limited character so far, these banners sometimes feature rate ups for characters who are considered the best in their role or generally a great addition to any account overall.
For more information about these characters and their future viability, check out our Tier List:
Aside from the current featured Echomancer, there are a few characters who are core to their team and definitely worth keeping if you stumble upon them:
The core of Fire Teams and overall one of the best block gauge breakers. He can also provide consistent creation of Fire Zones, while sustaining a respectable personal DPS.
As a bonus, if you get him early, you can use one of your selectors for his first dupe, which allows him to cast his ultimate right at the start of the battle.
A solid frontline and the backbone of the Corrosion Team. Lorelle can adapt between offensive and defensive stances, break gauges, diverge damage from allies to herself
If you get her first dupe (be it with selector or not), she can apply her “Polyphony” buffs even when she isn’t in the field. Truly a character who can fit any team.
Boasting the highest healing potential in the game, Longqing is another character who can fit any team. Her barriers from “Aqua Bliss” provide up to 80% damage reduction from projectiles and up to 20% damage reduction from other sources, as well as being one of the fastest way to stack [Inspire] if you’re using her alongside the Memory Trace “Nightmare”. Her ultimate is even more powerful, creating one big dome barrier that deals damage and provides stronger defensive buffs than her “Aqua Bliss” barriers.
While Longqing can fit easily in any team and is almost a “must have”, she still loses the spot of most used and most comprehensive healer to 5✦ Echomancer Freda.
If you’re going for Cen Ying on launch banner, you might as well guarantee the full package. Luke is the second core member of the Physical team.
Even without Cen Ying, his wide variety of utility ranging from taunt to barriers and summons make him a great addition to any account and almost any team.

Honorable 5✦ Mentions
Below you can find great 5✦ Echomancers that you should be on the lookout for while rerolling.
Arguably the best support in the game, you’ll see her in almost every team thanks to her buffs and passive healing capabilities. It’s recommended to get Freda to 3 dupes as soon as possible.
The second core for the Corrosion team. Ideal if you have picked Lorelle. Caroline has the best Leader skill for the Corrosion Team until Leilani’s release, and even after that, his versatility with AoE DMG and Healing remain of great utility.
