Based on preferences Forum members have expressed, please try to stick mainly to Tahir and not wander off topic too much to other heroes.

Some Popular Questions for Discussion

  • Is Tahir worth summoning for?

  • Would you use Tahir on Defense? Offense? War? Quests/Events? Titans?

  • Which heroes on your Roster best pair with Tahir ?

  • What heroes would you take when facing Tahir as an opponent?

  • Would you give Tahir Ranger Emblems? Which Talent Grid path will you choose?

  • What do you think of special?

  • What do you think of Tahir’s character design?

  • If you Summoned Tahir and would like to post your results, please include some thoughts on why you Summoned Tahir, and whether/how you plan to make use of them.*

*NOTE: Summon Results posted without any commentary/feedback at all should be flagged as Off Topic and removed, based on preferences expressed by the Forum community. Please include some comments about what you think of Tahir when posting Summon Results. In addition to opinions about Tahir, you are also encouraged to include how many Summons it took before receiving Tahir (or how many Summons you’ve done without receiving Tahir), so other players are presented with realistic experiences of the rarity of HOTM.


:money_with_wings: Avoiding Overspending & Heartache :broken_heart:

Or: How many summons are needed to get a HOTM?

_Special thanks to @Garanwyn & @zephyr1 for assistance on summoning odds and proofreading for this section.

It’s important to remember that HOTM have very low summoning odds. No amount of summoning will guarantee a HOTM.

On average, in a 10-pull, you have a 12.3% chance of summoning the HOTM.

But that statistic can lead our minds astray in exactly how our odds play out as we continue summoning.

Some useful insights:

  • 73 times out of 100, you’ll get a HOTM by pull 100
  • 95 times out of 100, you’ll get a HOTM by pull 229
  • 99 times out of 100, you’ll get a HOTM by pull 352

Putting that in Perspective

  • 27 out of every 100 people won’t get the HOTM by the 100th pull

  • If 1 Million players each summoned 100 times, 270,000 of those players wouldn’t get the HOTM

  • 5 out of every 100 people won’t get the HOTM by the 229th pull

  • If 1 Million players each summoned 229 times, 50,000 of those players wouldn’t get the HOTM

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. :slight_smile:


:thinking: 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.

Tahir is certainly one to pair up with Costume Marjana. Both of them together may be able to snipe out a kill.

I was thinking GM. C Marjana and then 525 should kill the target so no bleed to nearby?! Tricky but very useful. Emilio would be great. Wish I had him

852 attack was crazy good, I admit, but can you please leave him above 800 attack?

Make him 819 and Nemo will not whine ^^’

I won’t complain if you reduce his big damage from 525 to 500, I swear :upside_down_face:

If i get tahir… Ill slow level em… Likely… If i get a board where rajir fires off… I’ll tile dump into a fiend giver (lizzy viscaro)… But not sure how often i can see doing this.

If she’ll be like she was in beta then she’ll be very handy. Good thing about her is that even if she strikes weakly then flanks get bleeding. And fiend blocker is great buff, if something niche. Even more reason to make Esme’s fiend blocker non-conditional.

For those like me who don’t have red sniper beyond Marj she’ll be good addition, assuming she stayed like in beta.
