Idle Champions: August Augments Preview 

Welcome to the Event Augment preview for Ahghairon's Day Year 8!

Our next event arrives on Wednesday, August 6, with New Champion Baldric, the Augment Updates noted below, and Champion Update for Lazaapz coming on August 13!

Idle Champions Permanent Feature Update

We have some exciting Augments to feature this month - including a fan-favorite Augment elevating to permanent game status!

  • Free Weekly Offer Rerolls are here to stay! No longer limited to Event weeks, you'll now get five FREE rerolls every week in the Weekly Offer Shop. That’s right - each time the shop refreshes, you can use your five free rerolls (plus up to ten Platinum rerolls) to chase down the perfect pick from our Wild Offer pool!

The in-game FAQ will be updated on August 6th to reflect this system change. Now let's get into the Augments we've lined up for Ahghairon's Day!

Ahghairon's Day 8 Event Augments

  • Augment 1: Epic Platinum Chests (New Augment)
    Description: Opening Champion-specific Platinum Chests for any of the Ahghairon's Day event Champions will upgrade all the cards inside them to Epic rarity!

  • Augment 2: Empowered Rewards (Returning Augment)
    Description: Tier 2 and higher event variants award Corrupted Gems in addition to their normal rewards.

  • Augment 3: Golden Weekly Offers (Returning Augment)
    Description: One of your weekly offers will be Golden during this event. Golden offers provide an additional 10% discount! The Golden tag persists when an offer is rerolled.

  • Augment 4: Boon Enhancements (Returning Augment)
    Description: An additional boon buff at each level increases global damage based on the number of Champions in the formation that are from smaller species, stacking additively.
  • The small species are: Dwarves, Fairies, Gnomes, Goblins, Halflings, Kobolds, and Plasmoids


Note: Similar to our rollout in July the spotlight blogs for the two Featured Champions will also be spread out, with Baldric's tomorrow, August 1st, and Lazaapz's releasing next Friday, August 8th.

BW2: August 2024 Bubble Buddies Mini-Event! 
Posted in Bush Whacker 2.

A Visitor From the Far Far Ranch

The Far Far Ranch is far far away, but there's a visitor that's brought a piece of it to the Commons!

Bea's visiting from the Far Far Ranch and has brought three Bubble Buddies to see if they'll thrive in Bushwhackia.

Bubble Buddies

Bubble Buddies are cute bouncy critters that come in an array of looks and abilities! Let's see the three Bea's brought with her:



Buddies eat Bushy Carrots and output Blorts, which Bea will trade you for in her Ye Bouncy Buddy Boutique store. Watch the buddies get bigger and bigger as you feed them!

Buddies will also eat the more rare Spicy Tofu to output Blorts AND a resource unique to that buddy. Here are the buddies and their unique yields:

Bee Buddy - Gold
Bunny Buddy - Gems
Deer Buddy - Mana/Power

During Bea's visit, Bushy Carrots and Spicy Tofu can be found in bushes all over Bushwhackia.

Help feed their bouncy bodies, earn Blorts, and redeem prizes! The saying goes, 'Big Buddies have bottomless bellies!'

Instant Egg Incubation!

Bea's brought a machine that can instantly hatch a basic pet egg! You'll need to whack up a lot of fuel to get it working, via a challenging collection quest. Should you manage it quickly, you can even attempt it a couple more times at the cost of some Bush Bucks to repair the egg machine.

A Feeding Frenzy!

Bea and her buddies leave on Wednesday August 28th, so make the most of the opportunity while you can!
