Scouting

⚠ Information on this page is based on empirical data. Since information is not disclosed by Habbit, the data mentioned is instead sourced from player testing and observation. A margin of error and/or inconsistencies should be expected.

Scouting is the means to recruit characters into your roster. Once in possession of a character, any subsequent summons of the character will be converted to "memories" which is used for the proficiency system.

To see list of past and current pick up banners, see Banner History.

Overview

Through the Scout screen, there are four types of scouting, each requiring a specific item to do your recruitment.

For more information on scouting items, refer to Items. Some of these are acquired exclusively through Shop.

General Scouting Pools

There are different scouting pools depending on the method. You can refer to these lists to have an idea which character is available where:

• Flyers Only - These characters can only be scouted through Flyers.
• Standard Scouting - These characters are available in every scout method.
• Limited Scouting - These characters are only available on specific scout methods, usually limited by their featured banner or relevant shop packs.

Note: There are some exceptions which are given as quest rewards.

New Characters on Pool

Whenever a new character is added to the game, they are immediately available through any scouting method that draws from "latest pool of characters" which includes the flyers and referrals. One thing to note is referrals have access to limited characters on their pool.

Recruitment Flyers

These are commonly drops from story/event quests which can recruit characters of any rarity. Notably the only way to obtain most 1 and 2 star characters, and the odds of getting any character above three starts are weighted very low.

Flyer Drop Rates

There are four type of flyers which recruits a certain amount of characters depending on tier. There is a total 90% chance to drop any of these items through only Story and Event quests. They can also be obtained through event shops. Quest stamina cost does not affect drop rates.

Item	Number of Scouts	Drop Rate
	10 Blank Flyers scouts 1 character.	65%
	1 Green Flyer scouts 1 character.	14%
	1 Blue Flyer scouts 2 characters.	8%
	1 Purple Flyer scouts 3 characters.	3%

Premium Scouting

This is the typical way of obtaining characters, drawing from pool of 3-6 star characters with a few specified to have +1% increased rate as their "pick-up rate." This rate draws from the pick-up rate of 3-stars.

Pick-ups give improved chances to scout particular characters by taking 1% rate up from the 3-star appearance rate for each pick-up character. These banners usually come in pairs, with one coming out delayed by around a week. If there is a new character for a particular banner, it will be exclusive to that banner until it ends, afterwards they'll be part of the standard pool. Characters labelled as "Limited Time Only" are part of limited scouting and will only be available again once their banner reruns.

Due to how the rate up works, there is only roughly a 0.5% rate difference between a rate up 6-star and rate up 5-star.

Also currently, there is no benefit to doing 10 pulls aside from convenience.
