Human Race: Odds and Star Stats
What this page helps you decide: Whether the simplest race on the table is worth keeping in a slot, and how quickly you can push it to three stars instead of hunting something rarer.
Human is tied with Orc for the most common race in Iron Soul: Dungeon at a published 25.40%, which makes it the joint first of 13 by draw rate. It is also the simplest entry on the whole table: one bonus line where every other race has two to seven. That line is Attack Bonus, 5% at one star, 7% at two and 10% at three. A 25.40% rate means a Human draw averages 3.9 rerolls, three rerolls give you better than even odds, and eight rerolls put failure under 10%. Getting it to the three star ceiling means landing the same draw three times, which averages 12 rerolls in total. Nothing on this page is estimated; the stat line and rate come from the official race template and the roll counts follow from the rate.
The one line Human gives, and what it does
Human is the only race on the table with a single bonus line. At one star it is Attack Bonus 5%, at two stars 7% and at three stars 10%. The official sub-stats page is unusually direct about this stat: it calls Attack Bonus an additive multiplier and warns that the name misleads, because it increases all damage and not only normal attacks. That page separately lists Base Attack Bonus as the stat that raises basic and melee damage only, and recommends carrying none of it unless you genuinely spam normal attacks. Human gives you the good one. The same page recommends no more than four Attack Bonus sub-stats on gear, so a three star Human is a free 10% on top of whatever your gear rolls, without spending one of those four slots.
How the stars scale, checked against every race
Human runs 5, 7, 10. That looks irregular until you check it against the whole table. Across all 52 bonus lines on the official race template, two stars is one and a half times the one star value rounded down, and three stars is exactly twice the one star value. Human is one of 13 lines where one and a half times the base is a fraction, 7.5 in this case, and the game rounds it down to 7. That rule holds without exception for all 13 races, which is worth knowing because several third-party tables describe two stars simply as doubled, and one of them reprints three star values as if they were one star values.
Where Human sits among the 13 races
By draw rate, Human is joint first with Orc at 25.40%, ahead of Goblin at 24.50% and far ahead of Undead at 13.00%. The three commons together are 75.30% of the live pool, so three rerolls in four land here. That abundance is the point: Human costs 3.9 rerolls on average against 500 for any of the three 0.20% mythicals, a difference of 128 times. Orc is the direct comparison, because it carries the identical Attack Bonus line at the identical rate and adds Health Bonus 10% to 20% on top. If you draw both, there is no argument for keeping Human over Orc at the same star level.
Step-by-Step
- Expect Human without hunting it. At 25.40% it is one of three commons that together make up 75.30% of the pool, so most rerolls land on this band.
- Read its single line correctly. The official sub-stats page states that Attack Bonus is an additive multiplier and that the name is misleading, because it raises all of your damage rather than only basic attacks.
- Push it to three stars if you are not hunting anything specific. Twelve rerolls on average takes Attack Bonus from 5% to 10%, which is the cheapest maxed race in the game.
- Lock the slot once you are happy with the star level, because an unlocked slot lets any different race replace it, and at 74.60% that is the likely outcome of your next roll.

Tips & Notes
- No official pairing of races to weapons is published. What is published is a per-weapon critical rate band, and Human has no crit line at all, so it is weapon-neutral.
- A three star Human is 10% Attack Bonus for about 12 rerolls, which is the best return per reroll on the entire table.
FAQ
What are the odds of getting Human in Iron Soul: Dungeon?
25.40% per reroll, joint highest on the table with Orc. That averages 3.9 rerolls, with better than even odds by the third roll.
Is Human worth keeping?
As a placeholder, yes. It gives 10% Attack Bonus at three stars for about 12 rerolls, and the official sub-stats page confirms Attack Bonus raises all damage, not only basic attacks.
How many rerolls to get Human to three stars?
About 12 on average, since three stars means landing the same 25.40% draw three times. Lock the slot first, or a different race will replace it.
