Ketras appears as a mighty winged bull, wielding an axe as large as a Tauros Chieftain. It is said that with every swing of his axe, he can sweep aside a dozen lesser foes. Please note this Troop is currently only available in chests for the week on PS4 and XBox One.

Using Ketras doesn’t give me wings… Do not like. ---

> [@Dan\_ozzzy189](#): > > I used 20 gem keys and I didn’t get him, I’m devastated. That’s about a fair value for him. 😉 I wanted to collect the Mythic so I spent: 5,000 Seals, 600 Gem Keys, 1,400 Glory Keys and I got him. Too much for Ketras specifically, but a reasonable number of Keys for a Mythic. ---

> [@Annaerith](#): > > luckily he is suppose to be buffed Nimhain was very tight lipped with the actual buff @Rickygervais and I both asked her for the details on a different console thread last night, no luck. I suspect the “buff” its not quite fully locked in yet. ---

Me being the collector that I am I was able to get him but it cost me, a LOT. I am hoping he becomes more useful after the buff and can be a part of my guild wars teams. ---

He actually already is quite good in GW, Goes to 100+ damage quite fast with a couple of red matches, a good assassin, Problem is Famine just counters him, but then again Famine… ---

@Nimhain I stand corrected 🙂 I was hoping for the actual planned change to Ketras. But I understand if its not locked in you can’t say for sanity sake if you had to change it later. Are you going to reduce the primary targets damage, buff it a little, or keep it? 50% or 100%? to each enemy above and below? Reduce the Mana cost That kind of thing. ---

@Ghaleon So 10,000 Gems is like 220 VIP chests. Assuming a 1% drop rate for a Mythic from that particular type of Chest gives you 0.99^220 or an 11% chance you might have walked away with No Mythic at all after your spending spree. Congratulations, the glass was “89% full” after all. 😉 ---

Spent almost 400 glory keys, and even used about 1,450 gems and over 4,000 guild seals, wasn’t able to obtain Ketras. Oh well time to stock up on gems & glory keys again, Ketras wasn’t the best mythic anyway. ---

If you only had those kind of resources and weren’t that bothered about him, why bother using them for a relatively poor mythic in the first place? I’ll probably wait for elemaugrim, and even then I might only hoard glory and gem keys and save my gems. ---

2k glory keys, 700 gem keys, then hit him on the 2nd batch of 50 VIP keys. ---

I only did it to just try to get Ketras in my troop collection, honestly I’ll should have wait for the other mythic troops to return to the chests so I can try again, these are the other mythics I don’t have in my collection: War, Famine, Drakkulius (forgive me if I misspelled his name), Abynissia, Jotnar, and Pharos-Ra.
