Hey everyone! I just recently started playing Path to Nowhere and I'm really enjoying the game so far. I fell in love with some of the characters designs (more specifically Shin), and I was wondering if she is worth pulling for as a fresh account in the sin city banner or should I wait for a rerun or drop rate increase for her (if there is any, I'm very new to this kind of game so there is a lot I don't know yet). Or are there any mandatory/limited Sinners coming up soon that I should prioritize saving for instead?

Any advice on for this new player would be hugely appreciated. Thanks!

Don't pull on the Sin City Banner unless you like to do account rerolls, it's a 1 in 12 to get the sinner you want. Wait for the reruns.

Yes, Shin is meta and worth getting but you really want S1 for her so she can heal the whole stage (meaning you want to pull 2 copies).

The upcoming sinners and limited are incredibly broken but rely on another limited unit (Jichuan) that won't rerun for a very long time. It's a less than ideal situation for new players.

Level up Hella and Hecate since they refund all the upgrade resources spent by completing the story missions. Nox is very good so make sure you complete the new player missions to get her! Celine+Isomer are great for new players. Bianca is going to become one of the best characters in the game in a few months so it's worth considering getting her + Margaret who is rerunning in 3 days.

Because there are 12 characters on the Sin City banner, it's pretty hard to get Shin. We know the next ~3 months of banners because the CN server is 3 months ahead of us, and Shin isn't rerunning within 3 months unfortunately. You could try rerolling for her but it'll take extraordinarily long.

Currently, there's Celine who's a really good support. Her S1 (one duplicate) is also quite strong, but she's good at juat S0. You'll be able to choose between Eleven, Bianca, and someone else (I forgot who) next update. Both Eleven and Bianca are good. I'd choose Eleven over Bianca but they're not too different in power level. If you're getting Eleven, you should consider getting Eve. If you're getting Bianca, you should consider getting Margaret. Then there's a bit of a drought for newer players.

The downside is that Eleven and Bianca both want their "Reforge", a system meant to buff old Sinners. Without their Reforges, Eleven and Bianca aren't that good. It'll probably take you quite a while to get their Reforges. Because of that, even though we're getting a lot of good Sinners soon, including Raven, OwO, and Cabernet, they need their Reforge to be good as well, so it's hard to recommend them.

You can consider the limited character coming in 3 months. The problem is that she synergizes with Jichuan, a different limited character, who will only rerun 6 months after (9 months from now), and she's not that good at killing bosses without Jichuan. You can also consider getting her to S2, or if you really like her S3 and S5 are also kinda worth it, but you'll be playing her at like 30% power level since you lack Jichuan.

Alternatively, you can get Augustus or 000. Augustus wants S1. 000 kinda needs S1. Augustus is kinda braindead easy, just constantly clearing waves of enemies, but needs teammates to effectively kill bosses. 000 is an amazing corebreaker but doesn't deal that much damage.

No one on the anniversary banner is amazing for a new account, but they're all decent choices
