Astra Capsules
The capsule machines in the Observation Lounge give out looks for your duelist: card backs, sleeves, LP styles, victory poses, profile colors and more. You pay with DP or Capsule Tickets. There is no real money anywhere: no buying, no cashing out.
Series, prices, odds and prizes may change before release.
The machines
- The machines stand in a row on the lounge's left wall, between the entrance and Jaune's bar, under the ASTRA CAPSULES sign. Look for the CAPSULES marker on your minimap.
- Each running series has its own machine (up to three), in the series' color, with its name and price on the front and its top prize turning as a hologram above it. When no series runs, a single machine says CLOSED.
- Press E at a machine to open the capsule window on its series. Esc or right-click closes it.
- Jaune's shop sends you here too: a look that only the capsules give has a button such as OPEN ASTRA CAPSULES · FIRST LIGHT.
Pulling
At the top of the window you see your DP, Capsule Tickets and Stardust, and a tab for each running series with its top prize and how long it still runs.
- PULL 1 and PULL 10 pay with DP: in series 1, 300 DP for one pull and 2,700 DP for ten. From 1,000 DP the button asks a second time (CONFIRM: 2,700 DP).
- PULL 1 · 1 TICKET and PULL 10 · 10 TICKETS pay with Capsule Tickets instead.
- TURN THE CRANK: the crank turns and the capsules drop down the chute. Each one glows in its tier's color and pops open. An EPIC wobbles first; a LEGENDARY or MYTHIC wobbles longer, flashes and bursts. A click or Space skips to the end. A 10-pull ends on a grid of ten capsules; click one to look at it.
- Each capsule shows the look, its tier and NEW!, or DUPLICATE · +N STARDUST for a look you already have. GUARANTEED marks one that a guarantee gave you. You can try it on, on your duel look or your license, and EQUIP NOW puts it on at once.
A look you pull is yours, just like one you bought from Jaune: wear it from your profile, in the duel look or the style.
The window has four views: PULLS (the top prize before your first pull, then your last pull), ODDS (each tier's chance, its looks and how many of them you own, and the rules), EXCHANGE (see Stardust) and HISTORY (your totals and your last 50 capsules).
Tiers and odds
| Tier | Color | Chance in series 1 | A duplicate gives | EXCHANGE price |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| COMMON | gray | 55 % | 10 Stardust | 50 Stardust |
| RARE | cyan | 28 % | 25 Stardust | 125 Stardust |
| EPIC | gold | 12 % | 60 Stardust | 300 Stardust |
| LEGENDARY | pink | 4 % | 150 Stardust | 750 Stardust |
| MYTHIC | orange | 1 % | 400 Stardust | 2,000 Stardust |
Every look of a tier is equally likely. The ODDS view always shows the chances as they are right now.
Guarantees
- LEGENDARY OR BETTER IN AT MOST 50 PULLS: in series 1, the 50th pull after your last LEGENDARY or MYTHIC is always a LEGENDARY or better. A bar counts down, and at the end it says THE NEXT PULL IS A LEGENDARY OR BETTER. The count belongs to each series, goes on between visits and counts single pulls and 10-pulls alike. A LEGENDARY or MYTHIC starts it again.
- EVERY 10-PULL HOLDS AN EPIC OR BETTER: when the first nine capsules of a 10-pull had none, the tenth is an EPIC or better.
Stardust and EXCHANGE
- A look you already own, or one that came out earlier in the same 10-pull, turns into Stardust (see the table above).
- The EXCHANGE view shows every look of the series. Pick one to try it on, then press EXCHANGE · 750 STARDUST (or whatever it costs) and press again within 4 seconds to confirm. Without enough Stardust the button says how much you need.
Capsule Tickets
One Capsule Ticket pays for one pull instead of DP. Your tickets sit in your items (I) with your boosters, as one stack. They come as gifts from the Astra team.

Online
- While you are online, the series, their prices and their odds come from the server, the same for every duelist. The window says ONLINE · SERIES, PRICES AND ODDS FROM THE SERVER, so what you see there can differ from series 1 above.
- LEGENDARY and MYTHIC pulls are announced to everyone online, with a chat line such as "Kenji pulled STAR MAP (LEGENDARY) from the Astra Capsules, First Light!". A MYTHIC also brings a banner over the city.
