How to Reroll in Eternal Saga

If you'd like to test your luck from scratch and get one of the best-rated units as soon as possible, here is how to reroll in Eternal Saga:

  • Click your account icon in the upper left corner
  • Click on the settings menu on the right
  • Press Switch Account in the pop-up menu
  • Confirm you want to exit the game and start anew
  • Once you're happy with the starter, don't forget to bind your account to get extra rewards!

Unfortunately, the free units that Eternal Saga developers give out aren't that great and will only carry you for so long should you choose to build them, so opting to get a better unit from gacha is a must.
