NIKKE LITTLE WITCH TRICK Guide: Belorta Banner, Free Cinderella Costume, and Halloween Events

LITTLE WITCH TRICK looks like a banner update, but the banner is not the first place I would go. The opening session is better spent claiming Cinderella's free costume, starting the 14-day login track, opening the event farm, and checking how many Advanced Recruit Vouchers are available. Belorta: Pumpkin Witch can wait until you know what your account actually gains from her.

Quick answer: claim the free Cinderella rewards, secure the event vouchers, and protect your anniversary reserve. Belorta is scheduled to enter permanent recruitment pools later, so this is a roster decision rather than a Halloween-limited panic pull.

The deadlines that can actually cost you rewards

Content	Schedule (UTC+9)	Why a player should care
LITTLE WITCH TRICK / Belorta Special Recruit	After Oct 8 maintenance–Oct 28, 23:59:59	The story, Challenge Stage, login track, shop, and banner end together.
Cinderella Special	After maintenance–Dec 3, 04:59:59	The free costume lasts longer, but claiming it now removes an easy miss.
Union Raid	Oct 9, 05:00–Oct 15, 04:59:59	Your Union state matters before the lock period begins.
Solo Raid Season 42	Oct 15, 12:00–Oct 22, 04:59:59	The Water-code boss pushes you toward several usable Electric teams.
FULL BURST DAY	Oct 17, 05:00–Oct 19, 04:59:59 Oct 24, 05:00–Oct 26, 04:59:59	Save Interception and Simulation Room attempts for these windows.

Dates, rates, and acquisition routes follow the October 8 update notice.

NIKKE LITTLE WITCH TRICK event and raid calendar

ManaBuy calendar compiled from NIKKE's official October 8 update dates; the busiest overlap begins October 15.

Take the Cinderella Special rewards. Confirm Glass Curtsy, the Beautiful Me theme, and the five avatar frames are credited.
Enter DAILY TRICK once. You need 14 login days, so opening it now is more useful than remembering it at the end of the month.
Clear until the repeatable event stages open. Note the currency per run and the remaining shop cost before spending extra event attempts.
Reserve vouchers and skill materials first. Core Dust or Credits can come next according to the wall currently stopping your account.
Read Belorta's live skill page and test her. Check buff uptime, Burst timing, and whether she replaces anyone in a real Water team.
Set an October 27 cleanup reminder. Farm only the amount needed for your remaining shop list and spend the currency before the final hours.

How to farm the event without wasting attempts

The useful calculation is not “clear every shop item.” It is “how much currency remains after the free daily runs, and which items matter to my account?” After the repeatable stages open, write down three numbers: currency earned per run, currency already owned, and the cost of your priority list. That tells you whether extra attempts are needed.

Shop group	Priority	When to move it down
Advanced Recruit Vouchers	Usually first	Almost never; they remain useful beyond this event.
Skill manuals / Burst manuals	High for active teams	Lower only if you cannot currently use the material tier.
Core Dust, Battle Data, Credits	Choose the resource blocking progression	Do not buy equal amounts by habit when only one resource is scarce.
Low-impact leftovers	Last	Skip if clearing them requires paid refreshes or hurts another plan.

Should you recruit Belorta: Pumpkin Witch?

Belorta is a Tetra Line SSR, Water-code Supporter with a Rocket Launcher. The update describes offensive team support, but the decision depends on the live numbers and uptime. For most accounts, the biggest piece of information is that she is scheduled to enter Ordinary Recruit, Social Point Recruit, and Mold items in a later update.

NIKKE's English official X recruitment artwork confirms the featured unit; the banner notice lists a 2% Belorta rate.

Player situation	What I would do	Stop condition
New or casual account	Use free vouchers only after testing her role.	Stop if she does not improve a team you can build now.
Water roster lacks offensive support	Wait for verified skill values and raid testing, then consider a copy.	Do not chase duplicates before her value is proven.
200 Gold Mileage already saved	Compare one guaranteed copy with the anniversary target you would give up.	Keep the mileage if Belorta is only a collection pull.
Collector who wants her now	Set a pull count and Gem floor before entering Recruit.	Do not extend the cap because the last ten-pull missed.

NIKKE's official character profile identifies Belorta as a Water-code Supporter using the Candy Shot Rocket Launcher.

Pull budget and the real meaning of 2%

Plan	Voucher/Gem ceiling	What it means
Voucher-only check	10–40 vouchers	A controlled attempt with no Gem damage; still no guarantee.
Moderate cap	100 pulls / 30,000 Gems before vouchers	A mandatory pause to reassess anniversary reserves.
Mileage route from zero	200 pulls / 60,000 Gems before vouchers	Generates 200 Gold Mileage Tickets; it is a ceiling, not a recommended target.
Existing mileage exchange	200 Gold Mileage Tickets	Guaranteed copy without trusting the 2% roll, but consumes future flexibility.

A 2% featured rate describes each pull; it does not promise a copy by a specific pull count. Subtract owned vouchers first, then protect a Gem and mileage floor for the anniversary.

Free costume, paid pass, and rerun shop are separate decisions

Reward	Route	Player decision
Cinderella: Glass Curtsy	Log in during Cinderella Special	Free. Claim before reviewing paid costumes.
Beautiful Me + five avatar frames	Cinderella Special	Free account rewards.
Label: Occultist	Premium OCCULTIST PASS + maximum pass level	Buy only if the costume matters and you can finish the pass.
Novel: Detective Nurse	Limited Cash Shop rerun	A direct paid rerun, not an event unlock.

Plan raids around the event instead of beside it

October 15 is the pressure point. Solo Raid begins while the story event is still active, then FULL BURST DAY starts two days later. I would finish most story progression before that date, prepare several usable Electric-code teams, and avoid spending all Interception or Simulation Room attempts just before a bonus window begins.

Content	Account preparation	Common mistake
Union Raid	Confirm a Level 3+ Union and roster before the active lock.	Trying to change Union after the raid has begun.
Solo Raid Season 42	Spread Electric attackers and supports across several teams.	Building one strong team and leaving later attempts without usable support.
FULL BURST DAY	Move Interception and Simulation Room runs into the bonus window.	Assuming the bonus affects LITTLE WITCH TRICK stages.
Coordinated Operations	Bring a role that completes the five-player Burst chain.	Picking only for personal damage when the lobby lacks a Burst stage.

NIKKE Gem Top-Up

Count free vouchers and existing Gold Mileage first. If Belorta still fills a specific roster need, keep the anniversary reserve untouched and cover only the planned Gem shortfall.

NIKKE LITTLE WITCH TRICK FAQ

When does NIKKE LITTLE WITCH TRICK end?

The story event, Challenge Stage, DAILY TRICK, Event Shop, and Belorta Special Recruit end October 28 at 23:59:59 (UTC+9).

Is Belorta: Pumpkin Witch limited?

No. The update notice says she will enter Ordinary Recruit, Social Point Recruit, and Mold items in a later version update.

Is there a pity system in NIKKE?

For Belorta's banner, the confirmed safety route is Gold Mileage: each Special Recruit adds one ticket, and 200 tickets exchange for one copy. The notice lists a 4% total SSR rate and 2% Belorta rate; it does not promise that a featured copy will appear by an earlier pull count.

Do Gold Mileage Tickets expire in NIKKE?

Gold Mileage remains on the account after a Special Recruit ends. You do not need to spend it on Belorta, so keeping 200 tickets for an anniversary or limited target is a valid choice.

How do you get more Gold Mileage Tickets in NIKKE?

Each pull made in Special Recruit grants one Gold Mileage Ticket. Belorta's banner accepts Advanced Recruit Vouchers or Gems; Ordinary Recruit Vouchers cannot be used there.

How much does one pull cost in NIKKE?

One Special Recruit costs 300 Gems when you are not using a voucher, and a ten-pull costs 3,000 Gems. Always subtract owned Advanced Recruit Vouchers before calculating a Gem budget.

Should you spend Gems on Ordinary Recruit in NIKKE?

If Belorta is the target, spend neither Gems nor Ordinary Recruit Vouchers on Ordinary Recruit expecting her featured rate. Use her Special Recruit after setting a pull cap; save Ordinary Recruit Vouchers for the standard pool.

How do I get Cinderella: Glass Curtsy?

Log in during Cinderella Special before December 3 at 04:59:59 (UTC+9). It is free; Label: Occultist and Novel: Detective Nurse use paid routes.

My priority order

I would take the free Cinderella rewards, start DAILY TRICK, clear enough story to open efficient farming, and lock in the Recruit Vouchers before deciding on Belorta. If her live kit does not solve a team problem, her later permanent-pool path makes skipping much easier.

Before October 15, I would also finish most event progression and split my Electric units across raid teams. That keeps the event, Solo Raid, and FULL BURST DAY from competing for the same play session.
