Save at least 30 Rubies for ten-pull summons when targeting a limited pickup banner in Medabots S. While a single summon costs 3 Rubies, a 30-Ruby ten-pull secures a guaranteed high-rarity slot or part threshold, giving you a more reliable path toward a complete four-piece Medarot set or usable standalone parts.
How Pickup Banners and Medarot Sets Work
Pickup banners increase the drop rate for featured themed units, such as limited collaborations, seasonal variants, or idol-type Medarots, compared to the permanent pool. A single drop can award either the featured Medarot as a complete four-piece assembly or individual parts from the featured unit and general pool.
Pulling a complete set unlocks the full Medarot profile at once with consistent passive bonuses. If you do not pull the full assembly at once, you must collect or mix components across four part slots:
- Head Part: Controls utility skills, limited-use attacks, and base armor.
- Right Arm Part: Provides fast-cycling attacks or debuffs with high speed ratings.
- Left Arm Part: Typically carries heavy damage, support shields, or high-power charge abilities.
- Leg Part: Governs movement speed, terrain adaptability, and evasion values.
Single Pulls vs. Ten-Pull Summons
| Summon Type | Ruby Cost | Drops | Key Difference |
|---|---|---|---|
| Single Summon | 3 Rubies | 1 Part or Set | Low upfront cost when nearly out of Rubies |
| Ten-Pull Summon | 30 Rubies | 10 Drops total | Guaranteed high-rarity slot or part threshold |
Avoid spending stacks smaller than 30 Rubies on single pulls just because a banner is ending soon, as doing so increases the risk of stopping with an incomplete frame and no guaranteed high-rarity return. Focus your Rubies on one target banner at a time rather than splitting pulls across concurrent banners, and stop once you get the full set or the specific parts your team needs. When choosing which banner to target, prioritize roles your roster lacks—such as defensive disruption, healing, unusual terrain coverage, or high-speed leg parts—if you already have strong physical or shooting attackers.
Summon Animation Cues
During a summon sequence, pod lighting and pedestal animations show the rarity and type of drop before the final inventory reveal:
- Blue or silver pod lighting: Indicates standard one-star or two-star standalone parts.
- Gold or rainbow energy discharges: Guarantees a three-star component or a complete Medarot set.
- Full frame pedestal assembly: Confirms you pulled the entire four-piece Medarot at once rather than a single limb.
Using Incomplete Sets and Duplicate Parts
You do not need a complete four-piece drop to use new banner parts immediately. If you pull only part of a featured set—such as the Head, Left Arm, and Legs without the Right Arm—equip the new components onto a compatible tinpet and fill the missing slot with a part from your existing collection for PvE or Medaleague battles.
If you summon a duplicate of a part you already own, the game automatically converts the extra copy into enhancement currency, research materials, or part-specific upgrade tokens. Use these converted materials to:
- Increase the Star rank of existing parts.
- Unlock higher level caps for component stats.
- Upgrade armor integrity, accuracy, and skill power thresholds.

I tried this today and it worked better than my old setup.
I wish I had read this before upgrading the wrong thing.
This saved me time in the early game.
The explanation is clear, especially for beginners.
