 Avoiding Overspending & Heartache  |
|---|
| Or: How many summons are needed to get a Legendary Challenge Event Hero? |
It’s important to remember that Challenge Event Heroes have EXTREMELY low summoning odds. No amount of summoning will guarantee a Challenge Event Hero.
On average, in a 10-pull, you have a 1.65% chance of summoning Cao Cao.
But that statistic can lead our minds astray in exactly how our odds play out as we continue summoning.
Some useful insights:
- 15 times out of 100, you’ll get Cao Cao by pull 100 (26,000 gems)
- 56 times out of 100, you’ll get Cao Cao by pull 500 (130,000 gems)
- 95 times out of 100, you’ll get Cao Cao by pull 1,796 (467,200 gems)
- 99 times out of 100, you’ll get Cao Cao by pull 2,761 (717,900 gems)
Putting that in Perspective
-
85 out of every 100 people won’t get Cao Cao by the 100th pull
-
If 1 Million players each spent
$259.97 (US)to summon
times, 846,364 of those players wouldn’t get Cao Cao -
5 out of every 100 people won’t get Cao Cao by the 1800th pull
-
If 1 Million players each spent
$4,671.53 USto summon
times, 49,663 of those players wouldn’t get Cao Cao
More Insights & Reading
I highly recommend reading these three threads for more information and context on summoning odds:
-
[WARNING] A Summons Experience - Chasing Guardian Panther - A Warning for Chasing Heroes
-
What exactly is a Gacha? (Read before posting things about "unfair pulls")
If you’ve read them a million times before, you may consider reading them again before deciding on your budget for summoning. A little time spent deciding on how much money you want to risk on summoning goes a long way to avoiding disappointment, frustration, and regret later. 
Wondering About Your Personal Situation?
Feel free to discuss your team and roster here, and ask for advice from other Forum members.
If you’d like more extensive advice on sorting out your particular roster, I recommend creating a new thread in Gameplay Help & Tactics, and posting screenshots of your hero roster, along with your questions.

Is Cao Cao worth Summoning For?
I’m surprised people aren’t really voting he’s worth summoning for? Is this because he’s slow and his 4* brother is fast?
