I think it's cringe, but it's somewhat alleviated by the fact that we get a free monthly dupe for any unit and WoD so over time you can get key dupes for your limiteds without pulling, and most characters don't need to go beyond E3. You can find those in the sediment shop - they're called Timeloop and Prototype Horizon, be sure to buy those every month
Standard units are easy to max out since we get a ton of standard pulls. And during annis we get a special item that allows you to reset any character for a bunch of standard dupes. Let's say you had shit luck and got yourself an E12 Alva, with that thing you can reset her and get 12 standard dupes that you can use on better standards
>Limited banners don't get added to the standard pool, right?
They do but slowly. Some former limiteds are in the standard banner now: Tulu, Murphy, Sorel, Salvador, Daffodil, Lily, 24, albeit with lower rates
