Family Bonus
Ninja Heroes have a family bonus for unique heroes of the same family.
Ninja Family
Bonus for 1 / 2 / 3 Heroes:
- 5% / 10% / 15% chance to dodge normal attacks and Special Skills
- 5% / 10% / 15% chance to counterattack with 60% / 90% / 120% of the damage received
The two effects have individual sequential processing. So one may not trigger while the other might.

Please include some comments about what you think of Garnet when posting Summon Results.

 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 Garnet.
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 Garnet by pull 100 (26,000 gems)
- 56 times out of 100, you’ll get Garnet by pull 500 (130,000 gems)
- 95 times out of 100, you’ll get Garnet by pull 1,796 (467,200 gems)
- 99 times out of 100, you’ll get Garnet by pull 2,761 (717,900 gems)
Putting that in Perspective
-
85 out of every 100 people won’t get Garnet by the 100th pull
-
If 1 Million players each spent
$259.97 (US)to summon
times, 846,364 of those players wouldn’t get Garnet -
5 out of every 100 people won’t get Garnet by the 1800th pull
-
If 1 Million players each spent
$4,671.53 USto summon
times, 49,663 of those players wouldn’t get Garnet
More Insights & Reading
I highly recommend reading these three threads for more information and context on summoning odds:
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.
