How to Prepare for Giyu and Shinobu in Seven Knights Re:BIRTH

To prepare for Giyu Tomioka and Shinobu Kocho in Seven Knights Re:BIRTH, stop discretionary spending and save summon rubies to reach banner pity milestones, hold all universal transcendence items, bank gold, and pre-farm unassigned gear sets. Collaboration units are time-limited and do not enter the general summoning pool after their banners depart, making resource planning essential before the event goes live.

Calculate Ruby Income and Halt Side Spending

Securing limited collaboration heroes requires clearing summon milestones. Because previous banner waves can deplete your reserves, calculate your incoming rubies before the event begins:

1. Tally Weekly Payouts: Calculate expected ruby rewards from weekly Arena tier resets, Guild War distributions, daily and weekly quests, and remaining adventure clear rewards.
2. Establish a Pull Goal: Aim to hold enough rubies to reach at least the primary pity milestone for your priority target before committing currency.
3. Freeze Non-Essential Purchases: Avoid spending rubies on permanent hero summons, accessory chests, or cosmetic bundles until you secure the collaboration units you want.

Stockpile Universal Breakthrough and Rank-Up Materials

Pulling multiple duplicate copies of limited-time heroes to reach high breakthrough tiers demands heavy ruby investment. Universal progression materials allow you to unlock stat scaling and mastery passives without relying entirely on duplicate summons.

• Save Universal Breakthrough Tokens: Lock universal breakthrough materials in your inventory rather than spending them on permanent heroes.
• Preserve Rainbow Elements: Keep high-star rank-up element stones ready so you can raise newly summoned units to 6 stars immediately without waiting for daily dungeon rotations.
• Prioritize Based on Live Kit Scaling: Once skill details are visible, allocate universal materials to the hero that benefits most from raw stat scaling. A primary offensive striker typically requires maximum transcendence for damage output and survival, whereas a utility debuffer may function effectively at lower breakthrough tiers.

Pre-Farm Equipment Sets and Substats

Farming gear ahead of time lets you deploy both heroes into Arena and PvE modes immediately. Farm high-tier Dragon Raid stages and equipment crafting dungeons to secure unassigned 6-star legendary pieces matching each hero's role.

Keep these farmed pieces unequipped in your inventory to avoid spending extra gold on equipment removal fees later.

Bank Gold and Expand Inventory Space

Fully developing two new heroes—leveling, ranking up, unlocking gear slots, and enhancing equipment—costs millions of gold.

• Run Daily Gold Dungeons: Maximize daily gold entries and sell off obsolete raid equipment to build a liquid gold cushion.
• Expand Hero Storage: High-volume summoning generates dozens of 3-star and 4-star fodder units. Expanding hero inventory slots beforehand prevents interruptions during summon sessions and avoids the accidental fusion of useful fodder.
• Clear Equipment Bags: Sell or salvage low-tier weapons and armor so incoming gear drops from event activities do not overflow your bag.

Plan Roster Slots Before Summoning

Before pulling, identify which heroes Giyu or Shinobu will replace in your current lineups. Check whether Giyu fits into physical attack shells or common 4-1 and 1-4 Arena formations, and verify whether Shinobu's status effects complement your current damage-over-time or utility heroes. Having defined team slots prevents pulling on impulse without a functional team ready to support them.
