To claim Tholin Foulbeard and the Void Epic Whisper in RAID: Shadow Legends, you must create a brand-new account through an active promotional campaign link and enter the corresponding starter promo codes within your first 72 hours of play. These onboarding rewards are restricted to fresh accounts and cannot be activated on existing profiles that have already completed the tutorial.
Step-by-Step Account Setup
- Use a Promotional Installation Link: Start the installation through a campaign tracking link on PC (via Plarium Play) or mobile before downloading the client. This links your new account to the promotional reward package.
- Complete the Tutorial: Play through the initial tutorial battles until the main Bastion interface is fully unlocked.
- Check Your In-Game Inbox: Campaign-linked champions and preliminary starter items are delivered directly to your mailbox once the Bastion opens.
- Redeem Starter Promo Codes: Open the redemption interface to enter any supplemental new-player promo codes.
Because promotional partnerships rotate between featured champions, verify that your campaign link actively lists Tholin Foulbeard and Whisper rather than alternate champions such as Fahrakin the Fat.
Redemption Methods and Cooldown Rules
Plarium enforces strict redemption limitations across platforms. The system allows only one promo code redemption every 24 hours per account. Entering an invalid or expired code can trigger a temporary lockout, so verify inputs carefully.
| Platform or Method | Access Point | Key Restrictions |
|---|---|---|
| PC (Plarium Play) & Android | Hidden left-side panel inside the Bastion | 24-hour cooldown between codes |
| iOS (Apple Safari / Mobile Browser) | Plarium external code redemption portal | Requires Player ID (UMID); 24-hour cooldown |
| Promotional Registration Link | Campaign link prior to first app install | New accounts only; unlocked after tutorial |
Due to iOS policy limits, the promo code input tab does not appear inside the Apple mobile client. Players on iOS must visit Plarium’s external redemption webpage, input their unique Player ID (UMID) found in their in-game profile, and submit the code there.
Early Progression Roles and Resource Priorities
Acquiring both champions gives an immediate boost to your roster, but spreading upgrade materials across both simultaneously can stall account progress.
Tholin Foulbeard: Dungeon and Faction Carry
As a Legendary champion belonging to the Dwarves faction, Tholin Foulbeard provides base defense and survivability that exceed standard starter champions.
- Primary Use: Stabilizes early waves in Minotaur, Dragon, and Ice Golem dungeons so fragile damage dealers survive. He also provides a core anchor for Dwarves Faction Wars crypts.
- Skill Tome Priority: Low. Tholin functions effectively at baseline skill levels early on. Save scarce Legendary Skill Tomes for specialized late-game champions.
Whisper: Single-Target Boss Nuker
Whisper is a Void Epic damage dealer designed for sustained single-target burst against high-health targets, including the Clan Boss and Fire Knight. Because she possesses the Void affinity, her attacks never trigger weak hits against any elemental affinity.
- Primary Use: Boss encounters. Whisper's passive rewards critical hits with extra turns and bonus damage against targets afflicted by Decrease DEF and Weaken.
- Gearing Benchmarks: Prioritize 100% Critical Rate to trigger extra turns, sufficient Accuracy to land debuffs, and a minimum of 170 Speed.
- Skill Tome Priority: High. Whisper relies on Epic Skill Tomes to lower the cooldowns on her primary damage rotations.
- Mastery Focus: Work toward the Warmaster mastery to maximize her multi-hit damage output against Clan Boss and dungeon bosses.
Early Energy Allocation
Before investing heavily into ascending Whisper via the time-gated Void Keep, use your primary campaign starter champion to establish an efficient farming route on Campaign Stage 12-3 Brutal. Once your baseline silver and food production is stable, level Whisper and Tholin Foulbeard to transition from early campaign clearing into Stage 20 Dungeons and daily Clan Boss chests.
