Summon Rates and Odds Calculator

Updated · Summoning & rerolls

Quick answer

Each summon costs 50 gems (or 450 for 10) at the Treasure Hoard. Rates: Secret 0.05%, Mythic 0.5%, Legendary 4.5%, Epic 24.99%, Rare 69.96%, and you're guaranteed a Legendary or better within 50 summons. A Mythic takes about 139 summons for a 50% chance (~6,300 gems); there's no known Mythic pity.

Each summon is treated as an independent roll at the rates shown; picking Legendary + Mythic + Secret together counts the in-game guarantee of a Legendary or better within 50 summons. The featured hero is 75% of Mythic pulls, so a specific featured Mythic is about 0.375% per summon. How the game rebalances the other rarities with Lucky Summons isn't published — we take the extra from Rare. Results are estimates, not promises — luck varies.

Summon rates

Rarity Chance per summon Units seen in the pool
Secret 0.05% Magic Man (shown as “???” on the rate screen)
Mythic 0.5% Princess Bubblegum, Lemongrab, Billy
Legendary 4.5% Marceline
Epic 24.99% Lady Rainicorn, Flame Princess, BMO
Rare 69.96% Finn, Jake

These rates come from the in-game “All Rates” screen as transcribed by one careful fan wiki, so treat them as ⚠️ single-source until the developer publishes them. The pool above is from one snapshot — the featured Mythic rotates.

How many gems do you need?

Use the calculator above. Some handy numbers at the base rates (10× summons, no passes):

Goal 50% chance 90% chance
Any Mythic (0.5%) 139 summons ≈ 6,300 gems 460 summons ≈ 20,700 gems
Any Mythic with Lucky Summons (1%) 69 summons ≈ 3,150 gems 230 summons ≈ 10,350 gems
The featured Mythic (0.375%) 185 summons ≈ 8,350 gems 613 summons ≈ 27,600 gems
A Secret (0.05%) 1,386 summons ≈ 62,400 gems 4,605 summons ≈ 207,250 gems

On average a Mythic costs 200 summons (about 9,000 gems). For comparison, all codes together give 4,600 gems and each 7-day login streak gives 7,000.

Passes that change summoning

Pass Price Effect
Lucky Summons 399 Robux Mythic ×2, Legendary ×1.5 on every summon
VIP 349 Robux Summons 20% cheaper (40 gems, 360 for 10) plus better trait odds

Both are official pass descriptions. More in are the gamepasses worth it.

Who should you summon for?

Mythics like Lemongrab and Princess Bubblegum have evolutions (Lemongrab 3, Candy Elemental Bubblegum) and sit at the top of most tier lists. Check which Mythic is featured before you spend — you can see the banner timer at the Treasure Hoard.

FAQ

What is the pity in Candy Kingdom Defense?

The summon screen promises a Legendary or better within 50 summons. No source shows a Mythic pity, and it's not known whether the counter carries over between banners.

What are the Secret units?

The summon Secret is Magic Man at 0.05% — creators who pulled him confirm the rate on screen. The Lich is a separate Secret you get from Lich's Lair, not the Treasure Hoard — see the Lich guide.

Is Lucky Summons worth it?

It doubles Mythic odds (0.5% → 1%) and multiplies Legendary by 1.5. That cuts the average cost of a Mythic roughly in half (from ~9,000 to ~4,500 gems). If you plan to summon a lot, it's the pass that saves the most gems; VIP's 20% discount stacks with it.

Should I do single or 10x summons?

10x. Ten summons cost 450 gems instead of 500, a 10% saving, and the odds per summon are the same.
