Mastering the Void Hunters summoning system is the ultimate key to conquering the game's toughest endgame content. Whether you are hunting for top-tier DPS units like Tiche or defensive powerhouses to anchor your team, understanding how Void Hunters summoning works will save you thousands of valuable resources. In a gacha game where team composition dictates success across campaigns and hunting grounds, pulling the right heroes is more than just luck—it is a science.

This comprehensive guide breaks down every facet of the summoning mechanics. From deciphering Gritstone types to manipulating the wishlist and leveraging the pity system, we will ensure your next summoning session is highly optimized.


Demystifying Gritstones: The Currency of the Void

To optimize your Void Hunters summoning strategy, you must first understand the currencies involved. Summoning is conducted in the Stonegrasp area using three distinct types of Gritstone, each catering to different pools of hunters and offering widely different odds.

Unlike other gacha games where a single ticket pulls from every pool, Void Hunters segments its roster. Some hunters are locked behind specific progression milestones, while others are exclusive to certain summoning stones.

The Three Gritstone Types

  • Hunter Gritstone: This is your standard summoning currency. It is widely available through daily missions, campaign rewards, and events. It features a balanced pool of Rare, Epic, and Legendary hunters.
  • Gritstone of Reclamation: This unique stone targets "Consumed" and "Tainted" units. Consumed units are entirely exclusive to this pool and cannot be summoned anywhere else.
  • Paragon Gritstone: The most valuable summoning resource in the game. It completely removes Rare units from the equation, guaranteeing you only pull Epic or Legendary hunters.

Summoning Rates and Probabilities

The core of any Void Hunters summoning session relies on understanding the raw percentages. Knowing your exact odds helps manage expectations and plan resource allocation.

Standard summons can yield anything from common Rares to elusive Legendaries. Let's look at the exact mathematical breakdown for each Gritstone type based on official game data.

Gritstone TypeLegendary Drop RateEpic Drop RateRare Drop Rate
Hunter Gritstone1.5%12.0%86.0%
Gritstone of Reclamation4.0%32.0%64.0%
Paragon Gritstone10.0%90.0%0.0%

While these base rates seem fixed, the individual probability of pulling a specific hero changes dramatically depending on whether you use the wishlist or complete certain in-game missions. For instance, the base chance to pull a specific Legendary from Hunter Gritstone is a tiny 0.115%, but this can be heavily manipulated.


The Wishlist System: How to Manipulate Your Odds

The wishlist feature makes the Void Hunters summoning experience much more player-friendly than many of its competitors. Located on the right side of the Stonegrasp menu, it allows you to select up to four tags to increase your chances of pulling specific Epic and Legendary characters.

When you select a tag, the game adds additional copies of all characters matching that tag into the summoning pool. If a hunter matches multiple selected tags, the multiplier stacks. For example, selecting "Holy Order" and "Tainted" boosts characters who possess both tags, giving you a much higher chance to pull them.

Selected TagsAffected HunterMultiplier EffectStrategic Goal
TankYgravain & Sir Bernard2x RatePull reliable frontline defenders
Holy Order + TaintedYgravain4x RateSpecifically target Ygravain by stacking tag bonuses
Sage (Before Galen is unlocked)Faustus2x RateFaustus is the only eligible Sage, giving him a massive solo boost
Blade Master + Knight + AttackerTiche4x+ RateMaximize the chance of pulling the top-tier DPS

The Hidden Strategy: Restricting the Pool

According to player experience and veteran reports, there is a brilliant trick to maximize your odds: do not complete certain Hunter Missions immediately.

When you complete a Hunter Mission, that specific unit is permanently added to your general summon pool. By delaying these missions, you keep the pool smaller. This keeps the percentage chance of pulling your desired units much higher.

For example, if you leave Raven's missions uncompleted, she cannot enter your Gritstone of Reclamation pool. This directly boosts your odds of pulling other, more desirable Tainted units.


Understanding the Pity System

Even with the best wishlist setup, bad luck can happen. Thankfully, a robust pity system protects players from dry streaks. This is particularly important when planning your next major Void Hunters summoning spree.

The pity mechanics guarantee a high-rarity pull after a set number of unsuccessful summons. Each Gritstone type tracks its pity counter independently.

Gritstone TypeLegendary Pity ThresholdEpic Pity ThresholdCounter Reset Rules
Hunter Gritstone60 Pulls15 PullsResets early if respective rarity is pulled
Gritstone of Reclamation60 Pulls15 PullsResets early if respective rarity is pulled
Paragon Gritstone40 PullsN/A (Guaranteed Epic+)Resets early if a Legendary is pulled

If you are close to hitting your 60-pull pity on standard stones, it is highly recommended to do single pulls rather than ten-pulls. This prevents you from wasting extra stones once the Legendary is secured.


Top Hunter Highlights: Who to Target

When preparing for a summoning session, knowing who to wishlist is half the battle. Based on community feedback and high-level play, here are the standout units you should target.

Tiche (Legendary — Blade Master / Knight / Attacker)

Tiche is widely considered one of the most overpowered damage dealers in the game. Her kit features multi-hit attacks, bleed application, and massive skill scaling. She is an exceptional carry for almost all hunting grounds, though her archer classification prevents her from entering the Deserted Lands.

Faustus (Legendary — Sage / Priest / Holy Order)

Faustus provides incredible utility. He excels at removing enemy buffs and manipulating turn meters. His ultimate skill can deal a staggering 500% damage to all enemies when fully set up with Will stacks. He is also one of the few Sages capable of clearing sage-only campaign stages.

Angelo (Epic — Attacker / Human)

Do not overlook epics during your Void Hunters summoning sessions. Angelo is celebrated by players as the hardest-hitting single-target Epic in the game. His human and attacker tags make him incredibly versatile for dispatches and hunting grounds.

The Traps: Units to Avoid

  • Lilith (Epic): While her healing is strong, she inflicts a "Void Touch" debuff on your allies (2% per stack). Most players transition to Galen (a free Legendary healer) as soon as they beat the Prisoner boss.
  • Bomond (Epic): Often labeled a "trap" by the community. He looks dominant in the early game but falls off heavily in late-game progression.
  • Severin (Epic): His kit is incredibly clunky. Cleansing debuffs costs 25% of his own HP, and he can accidentally inflict Fear on himself.

Single Pulls vs. Ten Pulls: What Does the Community Say?

An ongoing debate in the community centers on whether to perform single summons or ten-pulls. While the math behind the drop rates remains identical, many players report subjective success with single pulls.

Statistically, ten-pulls are more time-efficient and often yield bulk rewards. However, if you are incredibly close to a pity threshold, doing single pulls can save you valuable Gritstones. Once you hit your legendary, you can stop immediately and save the remaining resources for future banners or highly anticipated Void Hunters summoning events.

Void Hunters Summoning FAQ

How does the pity system work in Void Hunters summoning?

The pity system guarantees an Epic unit within 15 pulls and a Legendary unit within 60 pulls on both Hunter Gritstones and Gritstones of Reclamation. For Paragon Gritstones, which only drop Epic and Legendary units, the Legendary pity threshold is reduced to 40 pulls. Pulling a unit of that rarity early will reset the respective counter back to zero.

Can I ignore the wishlist during Void Hunters summoning?

While you can ignore it, doing so is highly disadvantageous. The wishlist does not increase the overall chance of pulling a Legendary or Epic, but it heavily skews the odds in favor of the specific characters you want. By matching tags, you can target-farm top-tier carries like Tiche or Faustus with up to a 4x increased individual drop rate.

What are Consumed and Tainted units, and where do I summon them?

Consumed and Tainted units are special character classes in Void Hunters. Consumed units cannot be pulled from standard Hunter Gritstones; they are exclusive to the Gritstone of Reclamation. Tainted units can appear in standard pools, but they have a 2x rate-up on Reclamation banners.

Why shouldn't I complete all Hunter Missions?

Completing a Hunter Mission adds that specific character to your general summon pool. If you do not need that character, leaving the mission uncompleted keeps your summon pool smaller, thereby increasing your mathematical chances of pulling the specific top-tier hunters you actually want.
