Idle Champion Spotlight: Kas 
Posted in Idle Champions.

    Once the Lieutenant of Vecna, Kas betrayed his former master in a fight resulting in the dreaded artifacts, the Hand and Eye of Vecna. Kas is a vampire, legendary swordfighter, and ruthless warlord, and he is driven primarily by one thing: his hatred for Vecna.
Kas is a DPS and Healing Champion that excels when used with Evil Champions. In addition, this Vampire Lord can turn living Champions into his thralls, granting the ability to recover lost hit points with every attack they make. Once unlocked, you can find this Human Fighter in Seat 6 (Asharra).

Formation Abilities

  • Born Into Evil - Kas increases his damage by 100% for each Evil Champion in the formation, stacking multiplicatively.

  • Life Drain - When an Undead Champion in the formation attacks, they regain 50 Hit Points.
  • Spawn of Kas - When a Champion that is not already Undead dies, they immediately resurrect at full health as a Vampire Spawn, counting as Undead for the rest of the adventure. The effect of Born Into Evil is increased by 100% for each Undead Champion in the formation, stacking multiplicatively.

  • Kas the Bloody Handed - Kas increases the effect of Life Drain by 100% and Evil Champions attack faster as their base attack cooldown is reduced by 0.5 seconds.
  • Kas the Betrayer - Kas' damage against Boss enemies is increased by 100%, and the effect of Born Into Evil is increased by 100% for each Undead Champion in the formation, stacking multiplicatively
  • Kas the Destroyer - Increase the effect of Born Into Evil by 100%. In addition, Champions adjacent to Kas gain the Evil tag. This does not affect their other alignment tags, and doesn't affect whether they are eligible for the adventure.

Idle Champions: October Augments Preview 
Posted in Idle Champions.

Welcome to our preview for the Liar's Night Event Augments!

Our second Year 8 Event launches on Wednesday, October 2nd, and marks the debut of our first Augment to become a permanent Event feature! Liar's Night 8 will feature two returning Augments and two new Augments. For more information about which Event Augments will be active, read on!

Event Augment Graduation Ceremony

Event Augments are unique modifiers to each event that can enhance almost any aspect. When M-M-M-ulti-Tier hit the scene on Ahghairon's Day, it was clear that this upgrade was exactly what the Augment system was made for. Player sentiment reinforced our gut feeling that M-M-M-ulti-Tier was an Augment that needed to stay. It remained as an Augment in Highharvestide, and as of Liar's Night next week, it has graduated to become a permanent Event feature!
  • Permanent Event Feature: M-M-M-ulti-Tier
    Description: Completing an event variant in a high enough area will award multiple tiers of progress.

Liar's Night Year 8 Event Augments

  • Augment 1: Boon Enhancements (Returning Augment)
    Description: An additional boon buff at each level increases gems dropped from bosses.

Buff Tier 1 Tier 2 Tier 3 Tier 4
Gem Drops 20% 40% 70% 100%


  • Augment 2: Auto-Equip (New Augment)
    Description: Event Champions whose recruitment adventure or variants you complete gain common rarity equipment in all slots, if they don't already have better.

  • Augment 3: Auto-Blacksmith (New Augment)
    Description: Every tier two or higher event variant completed automatically applies 100 Tiny Blacksmithing Contracts to the variant's Champion's equipment for free!

  • Augment 4: Worth The Wait (Returning Augment)
    Description: Rebalanced Champion Voronika will unlock at the start of week two of this event, and completing her tier 2+ variants awards double chests!


Note: Similar to our rollouts in August and September, the spotlight blogs for the two Featured Champions next month will also be spread out, with Kas the Bloody Handed releasing tomorrow, September 27th, and Voronika's releasing next Friday, October 4th.


We hope you enjoy these Event Augments! Please tell us about your experiences with Augments in Idle Champions. The best way for us to hear your feedback would be for you to join our community on an officially-supported platform:

Idle Champions: Vecna: Eve of Ruin Part 3 
Posted in Idle Champions.

After braving the dangers of sailing the Astral Sea and exploring the floating corpse of a dead god, the Champions have managed to find and secure a second piece of the Rod of Seven Parts.

For the next Vecna: Eve of Ruin adventures, the Champions will help a Vecna find a 'new' hand and eye(!) before traveling to one of the most dangerous and cursed regions in the multiverse in search of another piece of the Rod of Seven Parts: the former nation of Cyre, better known as The Mournland...

    • Complete area 650

The Ruined Colossus

Travel to Eberron to find a piece of the rod inside a ruined warforged colossus!

The Wizards Three have located the next piece of the rod. It's in Eberron! Specifically in the Mournland. More specifically, in the rotting remains of a ruined Warforged Colossus...

    Variant

    No Good Options - Travel to Eberron to find a piece of the rod with a custom set of evil Champions!

    • Only Evil Champions can be used.
    • Each Chaotic Champion in the formation increases enemy health by 100%.
    • Each Neutral Champion in the formation increases enemy speed by 100%.
    • Each Lawful Champion in the formation increases enemy damage by 100%.
    • Each of the above effects stack multiplicatively.
    • Complete area 700

The Junior Whackers

Help three aspiring young ones learn how to whack bushes, mana whack, and power whack! Bring the Jr. Whackers some Cardboard Swords to use, found in bushes throughout the world, and they'll share the spoils of their training with you. As you help them, they gain experience, "leveling up" and will award more items with each turn-in. Each of the determined young padawans will have a daily quest to power up the spoils from their next turn-in.

Badges!

Another Jr. Whacker is pursuing their Capitalism badge. After you help them achieve that, perhaps they'll try their hand at Socialism?

Nate's Minions

If you've kept up with Nate's saga in this event, Nate has collected a gaggle of jr treasure hunters, or minions, as he likes to call them. Unsurprisingly, Nate's minions still aren't happy with their working conditions. Help Nate with a daily quest to meet his minions demands.

Ye Environmental Conservator's Equipage

There's a new ranch item and sword item to collect in this year's Ye Environmental Conservator's Equipage store, available after helping a junior whacker get their conservation badge!

Orienteering Badge

If you helped Keisha practice her camping badge in past years, she'll have a new quest for you to help with this year! In order to go backcountry camping, she'll need her Orienteering Badge.

2024 Champion Spotlight: Rosie 
Posted in Idle Champions.

    Weighing in at just under 30 pounds and with a grandmotherly demeanor befitting her advanced age, Rosie Beestinger is easily mistaken for someone on the wrong side of the 'aggressor/victim' relationship. But this is a mix-up that few people make more than once.

Originally released in March 2019, Rosie Beestinger is a sassy Halfling Shadow Monk created by Kate Welch for Acquisitions Inc: The "C" Team. And now it is time for a Rosie rework!

Rosie has been significantly reworked to better lean into her niches - adventures with ranged enemies, and formations with younger Champions. In addition, she has been given a new niche as the first Champion who can affect the BUD decay rate. For more information about Rosie's updated design, read on...

  • Deflect Missiles - Rosie gains a deflect stack every time she attacks. She can store up to 100 deflect stacks at once. Whenever an enemy attacks the formation with a ranged/magic attack, Rosie consumes a deflect stack and reflects it back at the attacker.

This effect can trigger as often as necessary, as long as Rosie has deflect stacks available.

  • Busy Beestinger - Rosie's attack speed cooldown is lowered by 0.5 seconds (stacking additively) and her damage is increased by 400% (stacking multiplicatively) for each member of the "C"-Team in the formation, including herself.
  • Slower Decay - Increases Rosie's critical hit damage by 600% and the effect of Slow Decay is set to 75%.

Ultimate Ability

Idle Champions: Highharvestide 8 
Posted in Idle Champions.

    Faerûn's Savage Frontier has no shortage of dangers, but that hasn't stopped the citizens of Triboar from carving out a living in this picturesque stretch of fertile northern farmland.

    This year, however, the people of Triboar are in need of aid. As the Highharvestide Festival approaches, bandits have begun causing trouble for farmers attempting to bring in their harvests, and it's up to the Champions to put an end to it!

Highharvestide 8 marks the beginning of Year 8 Events in Idle Champions and the beginning of Idle Champions 7th Anniversary Celebration! That's not confusing, is it?

But wait, there's more -- today also marks the launch of our latest Saturday Morning Squad member: Bobby the Barbarian!

Bobby is the first of the Featured Champions for Highharvestide 8, with the second, Rosie Beestinger, launching on Wednesday, September 11. Rosie's rework has been a long time coming, and we are excited to finally share with you what we've done.

Read on to learn more about Highharvestide 8 and the 7th Anniversary Celebration!

Bobby has close ties to his sister Sheila and his pet unicorn, Uni. Despite his impulsiveness, Bobby's courage and determination are key assets in the search to find the way back home.

Rosie Beestinger

Dungeons & Dragons Rosie Beestinger Acquisitions Incorporated The C Team Kate Welch

    Weighing in at just under 30 pounds and with a grandmotherly demeanor befitting her advanced age, Rosie Beestinger is easily mistaken for someone on the wrong side of the 'aggressor/victim' relationship. But this is a mix-up that few people make more than once.

Learn about Rosie's upcoming rebalance in her 2024 Champion Spotlight launching on Friday, September 6. The Rosie Rebalance arrives on Wednesday, September 11 at the beginning of Highharvestide Week 2.
