Idle Champion Spotlight: Corazón de Ballena 
Posted in Idle Champions.

Many children dream of running away to become a pirate. Our latest Champion actually did and became a swashbuckling rogue with some magic tricks up his sleeve!

Corazón de Ballena is joining the Idle Champions roster during Brightswords 4! Read on to learn more about this swashbuckling rogue and his appreciation for the Grease spell!

I. Corazón

Dungeons & Dragons Corazon

    The young man who would eventually join the Oxventure Guild originally grew up as the posh Percival Milquetoast, heir to the Milquetoast estate. But the life of an aristocrat under a Father he despised inspired him to leave it all behind for the high seas! As Corazón de Ballena he became a flamboyant pirate and swashbuckler ready to try and one-up any other rogues he meets. But it was Corazón's own actions that caused the crew of his ship, the Joyful Damnation, to fall under a horrific curse. While he was able to flee to safety, Corazón never forgot his former comrades, and now is on a personal quest to lift the curse he caused. Fortunately he has his new friends in the Oxventure Guild, and a few more tricks up his sleeve!


Corazón is a Support Champion who focuses on aiding his fellow Champions with his skills and pirate style. When you want to add him to your formation you can swap him with Delina (Slot 8).

II. Corazón's Stats

Race: Human Alignment: Chaotic Neutral
Class: Rogue Gender: Male
Age: 30

STR: 13 DEX: 18 CON: 12
INT: 16 WIS: 15 CHA: 18

Role: Support
Eligible for Patrons: Strahd, Zariel
Slot: 8 (Delina)


Dungeons & Dragons Corazon

III. Corazón's Design

Our second Champion from the Oxventure crew from Outside Xbox and Outside Xtra brings a tremendously insecure rogue who hides his self-consciousness both figuratively and literally! It was a delight to work with Andy Farrant to bring Corazón's fast talking, sneak attacking, Grease loving rogue to life in our game.

Corazón likes to avoid getting his hands dirty, and prefers to focus on increasing the damage of his fellow Champions rather than having to do all the attacking himself. To make that easier, his Pirate's Code increases the damage of all Neutral (along the good/evil spectrum) Champions, and Honorary Crewmates lets him add the Neutral tag to anyone who is adjacent. The more Neutral Champions in the formation, the more Grease puddles Corazón will create when he attacks, which causes enemies to slow to a crawl. Finally G.O.A.T. Pirate means that every time Corazón attacks he increases the effect of Pirate's Code, making Neutral Champions even more effective!

He has two different Specializations, each focusing on a different objective. Distant Crewmates changes the way Honorary Crewmates works to affect non-adjacent Champions instead of adjacent ones, in case Corazón wants to position himself away from most of the crew. Or he can cast Mage Hand to drop his Grease puddles on the enemy furthest from the formation instead of the ones he attacks. When the field is filled with pools of Grease, Corazón uses his ultimate Fiery Bombardment to call on his ship, the Joyful Damnation, to fire flaming cannonballs from afar! Not only does this do damage to all enemies on screen, but it lights all the existing Grease puddles on fire, giving more proof to Corazón's assertions that Grease is the greatest spell ever!

IV. Corazón's Abilities

Basic Attack

  • Shadow Step — Corazón attacks a random enemy from the shadows.

Formation Abilities

  • Pirate's Code — Corazón increases the damage of all Neutral (along the good/evil spectrum) Champions in the formation by 100%.
  • Grease — Whenever Corazón attacks he leaves behind a moderately sized puddle of Grease under the enemy he attacked. Grease puddles do not hinder other Champions, but do slow enemies passing through them by 25%. The maximum number of Grease puddles on the screen at once is equal to the number of Neutral Champions in the formation. The effects of Grease puddles, include the ultimate flaming puddles, stack multiplicatively if an enemy is standing in multiple puddles at once.
  • Honorary Crewmates — All Champions adjacent to Corazón gain the Neutral tag (along the good/evil spectrum). This does not affect their other alignment tags, and doesn't affect whether they are eligible for the adventure, but will make them eligible for the Pirate's Code and any other abilities that affect or are affected by the Neutral tag.
  • G.O.A.T. Pirate — Increase the effect of Pirate's Code by 0.01% each time Corazón attacks, stacking additively and lasting until reset.

Specializations

  • Distant Crewmates — Honorary Crewmates now affects all non-adjacent Champions instead of adjacent ones.
  • Mage Hand — Grease no longer leaves behind puddles under the enemy Corazón attacks, instead it is dropped on the enemy furthest from the formation through creative use of a Mage Hand spell. The effect of these puddles is increased by 10%, multiplicatively.

Ultimate Ability

  • Fiery Bombardment — Corazón's ship, the Joyful Damnation, fires flaming cannonballs from afar, damaging all enemies and lighting all existing Grease puddles on fire for 30 seconds. Enemies in the flaming Grease puddles are dealt 1/30th of this ultimate's damage per second and take 100% more damage while the puddle is on fire.

V. Corazón's Epic Equipment



Slot 1: Global DPS
Slot 2: Global DPS
Slot 3: Pirate's Code
Slot 4: G.O.A.T. Pirate
Slot 5: Ultimate Damage
Slot 6: Ultimate Cooldown

VI. Conclusion

We're excited to have another member of the Oxventure Guild join our Champion roster! Let us know if Corazón has inspired you to enjoy the Grease spell on the Idle Champions Subreddit, on the Steam forums, or on the Official Idle Champions Discord!

COTLI: Dr. Evil's Summer Sabotage Y6 

Swim, Run, Bike. Our latest Crusader excels at all of these sports. It's time for Dr. Evil's Summer Sabotage 6!

Dr. Evil's Summer Sabotage 6 has arrived, bringing with it the Regent Sawtooth.

This year's event runs until Tuesday, September 7th at 12:00 PM Pacific Time (UTC -7), introducing Regent Sawtooth and bringing back Oona, Para Rugby Star, Veronica, the Android Archer, Bubba, the Swimming Orc, The Gold Hound, Milgrid the Mining Mage, Dr. Evil, PhD, and Euodia, the Fencer!

New Tier 6 Crusader: Regent Sawtooth

Tags: Event, Human, Animal, Male, Evil, Magical, Healer, Tank


Just when you thought it was safe to go back into the water...it was actually.

Regent Sawtooth isn't always in the ocean. Sometimes he's on dry land training for the various triathlons he enters, or off running "errands." And now he's interested in joining your band of Crusaders, to see what other errands he can do out in the multiverse.

Don't worry though: since you're now family, he'll look after you, providing some healing when he's in the formation, and he's got the connections to make the active abilities like Click-o-Rama, Savage Strikes et al last longer. Those are some good connections.

But maybe you should still sleep with one eye open, just in case.

Regent Sawtooth is a Support and Healer Crusader. When you want to add him to your formation, you can find him in slot 31.

New Tier 6 Objectives

  • Recruit Regent Sawtooth | Regent Sawtooth takes up a slot in the formation. Veronica, the Android Archer and Bubba, the Swimming Orc take up spots in formation and can't be moved. Acquaintances of Regent Sawtooth randomly attack the formation, trying to just "have a chat.". Note: This will require having cleared the objective To Infinity and Beyond on Ghostbeard's Greed to complete. Reach area 600.

  • Sniffing Out Sabotage |The Goldhound and Milgrid the Mining Mage take up spots in formation and can't be moved. Aside from the locked-in crusaders, only Evil tagged crusaders can be used. Powerful robots attack your formation, healing all monsters and firing lasers from range. Note: This will require having cleared the objective To Infinity and Beyond on Ghostbeard's Greed to complete. Reach area 650.

  • Doctor Doctor | Dr. Evil, PhD takes up a spot in formation and can't be moved.Aside from the locked-in crusader, only Evil tagged crusaders can be used. Horrible Experiment can't be disabled. A rival doctor occupies a slot in the formation and damages the Crusaders infected with Horrible Experiment by 15% of their health per second. The rival doctor also provides a 200% DPS buff, multiplicative per infected Crusader. Note: This will require having cleared the objective To Infinity and Beyond on Ghostbeard's Greed to complete. Reach area 675.

  • Bout with Evil | Euodia the Fencer takes up a spot in formation and can't be moved All area quests are now kill 50 monsters. Aside from the locked-in crusader, only Evil tagged Crusaders can be used. The formation has been changed. Quest requirements are tripled. Note: This will require having cleared the objective Bullet Hell on Ready Player Two to complete. Reach area 700.

  • Rugby Perils | Oona, Para Rugby Star takes up a spot in formation and can't be moved. Aside from the locked-in Crusader, only Evil tagged crusaders can be used. Only Oona does DPS. Note: This will require having cleared the objective Bullet Hell on Ready Player Two to complete. Reach area 725.

More info

You'll have until Tuesday, September 7th at 12:00 PM Pacific Time (UTC -7) to complete Dr. Evil's Summer Sabotage 6!

For more info on previous Dr. Evil's Summer Sabotage Crusaders and objectives check out the Dr. Evil's Summer Sabotage 5 blog post.

Equipment for event Crusaders can be found in Crusader Games Silver and Jeweled Chests, which you can earn from objectives and the free play or buy in the shop. Each non-recruitment objective will drop a chest for its given tier of Crusaders, and free play will drop All Tier chests. Gear for Tier 2, Tier 3, Tier 4, Tier 5, and Tier 6 Crusaders will only appear in All Tier chests once you've unlocked the respective Crusaders. You can select the tier of chest you buy in the shop when you go to purchase chests with real money or event currency.

Idle Champions: The Grand Tour, Part 14 
Posted in Idle Champions.

Mantol-Derith is supposed to be a neutral outpost in the underdark, a place where all groups can meet without threat of violence. Unfortunately it didn't take much for all of that peace to fall apart...

We need to make it to Mantol-Derith to uncover more details about the situation, but first we need to solve the problems that are causing this all out inter-faction war!

Note: you will need to have completed the previous two Grand Tour Adventures, Lost in the Underdark and Leemooggoogoon Rises, in order to access these new Adventures.



Neutral No More

Head to Mantol-Derith to learn more about the demonic incursion into the Underdark.
  • Variant: Fungal Excitation — On the way to Mantol-Derith the party is attacked by a flood of Spore Servants! These Underdark Spore Servants do not count towards quest progress, nor do they drop gold. Each time you re-encounter an area, the number of Underdark Spore Servants increases!
    Reach Area 425.

Encroaching Madness

Explore Mantol-Derith while you discover the reason behind the inter-faction war.
  • Variant: Watchful Eyes — The Zhentarim are willing to help but are also warry of betrayal, so two Zhentarim spies join the formation for this adventure to keep an eye on things. You'll need to be persuasive to keep these Zhentarim trusting you, so only Champions with CHA of 14 or higher can be used.
    Reach Area 425.

See the in-game Change Log for more information!

Once you equip your dog, Nate has some daily quests for you to do to keep the ball of energy that is your puppy occupied. Love the look of the dog? Permanently adopt it with a simple purchase! You can choose between the Dobermann Pup, Dalmatian Pup, and Husky Pup!

Idle Champions: Ahghairon's Day 4 
Posted in Idle Champions.

It's the day before Shieldmeet and the Open Lord of Waterdeep has gone missing. Nobody has seen Laeral Silverhand in days and it is imperative that she be found before the meeting with the Masked Lords begins.

At the behest of the Blackstaff, the Champions are sent to discover what happened...

Ahghairon's Day 4 introduces Prudence, the Chaotic Evil Tiefling Warlock of the Oxventurer's Guild, and brings back, Omin Dran, CEO and founder of Acquisitions Incorporated, and James Winifred Darkmagic III. Players have until Monday, August 23rd at 12PM PDT to complete their event unlocks and objectives.

For more information about Year 4 Events and how they work, please check out our Year 4 Events Dev Blog.

I. New Champion: Prudence

Dungeons & Dragons Oxventures Prudence

    There's nothing more fun than being the bad one, and this tiefling revels in her commitment to violent solutions to any problem! Abandoned as a child, Prudence grew up in a cave under the care of a hermit. But now she appreciates the companionship of her fellow Oxventure Guild members, even if they disagree on tactics and morality. She is a devoted warlock of Cthulhu and enjoys following his dark, if sometimes confusing, instructions. While her powers and abilities may be grim, her demeanor is gleeful as she disintegrates her foes!


Prudence is a DPS Champion who focuses on destroying her enemies with her Eldritch powers. When you want to add her to your formation you can swap her with Calliope (Slot 5).

II. Prudence's Stats

Race: Tiefling Alignment: Chaotic Evil
Class: Warlock Gender: Female
Age: 28

STR: 14 DEX: 12 CON: 17
INT: 15 WIS: 12 CHA: 18

Role: DPS
Eligible for Patrons: Mirt, Vajra, Strahd, Zariel
Slot: 5 (Calliope)


III. Prudence's Design

It's not often we can add such a joyfully evil Champion to our roster, and it was a delight to work with Jane Douglas to bring her bloodthirsty character to life in the game! The Oxventure crew from Outside Xbox and Outside Xtra have been playing together for several years, which gave us a wonderfully large library of adventures to draw from when creating Prudence in Idle Champions.

Prudence is focused on dealing damage and killing enemies, and the more foes she's felled the happier she becomes! Each time she kills an enemy she gains a stack of Glee, and those stacks further increase her damage. Her Specializations allow you to decrease the cooldown of either her base attack or ultimate attack, so she can get back to the slaughter even faster.

For more information on Prudence and her abilities, check out her Champion Spotlight!

Year Four Variants

  • Spider Climb - Giant Wolf Spiders arrive in each area. These spiders drop no gold, nor do they count towards quest progress. Each time a spider is killed, a random Champion is stunned for 2 seconds. Only Champions with DEX of 12 or higher can be used.
  • Reach Area 75.

  • Gleefully Evil — Only Evil Champions can deal damage. Prudence starts in your formation and her base attack cooldown is reduced by 2 seconds.
    Getting to know Prudence: Prudence finds it fun to kill enemies in front of her more squeamish good-aligned allies. Add good-aligned champions to power up her Glee stacks. If she maxes her stacks of Glee consistently, consider adding a non-good champion to give her someone who gets her jokes, increasing her max stacks and super-charging her power level!
    Reach Area 125.

  • Pure Hunger — A tentacle accompanies the formation. No one knows what it's doing, but it's freaking most of us out. Enemies move 100% faster and deal 100% additional damage. Every 25 areas, all enemies' speed and damage is increased by an additional 35%. Whenever Prudence kills an enemy, all enemies are stunned for .5 seconds.
  • Reach Area 175.


August 2021 DLC Retirement Sale



It's Week 2 of our retirement sale! For more information about the sale and which DLC are retiring at the end of the month, check out our blog post here.

Each time she kills an enemy she gains a stack of Glee, and those stacks further increases her damage. Since she enjoys showing off to both Good and non-Good aligned Champions, her Delight and Resolve abilities increases her damage and maximum number of stacks of Glee. But if her attack is not enough to destroy her target she gains a stack of Frustration, which increases her damage. That way she can make sure the next time she attacks, those Champions adjacent to her don't witness her fail at murder again!

Her Specializations allow you to decrease the cooldown of either her base attack or ultimate attack, so she can get back to the slaughter even faster. And when it's time to unleash death and destruction across the battlefield, her Ultimate Hunger of Hadar is sure to bring Prudence great joy and her enemies unknown horror!

IV. Prudence's Abilities

Basic Attack

  • Eldritch Blast — A beam of crackling green shoots towards an enemy, dealing damage.

Formation Abilities

  • Glee — Prudence gains one stack of Glee each time she kills an enemy. For each stack of Glee, her damage is increased by 10%, stacking additively and capping at 10 stacks. Glee has a 25% chance to lose one stack whenever a Champion other than Prudence gets a kill.
  • Delight — Increase the damage bonus of Prudence's Glee ability by 100% for each Good aligned Champion in the formation, stacking additively and then applying multiplicatively.
  • Resolve — Increase the max stacks of Prudence's Glee by 10 for each non-Good Champion in the formation.
  • Frustration — Every time Prudence attacks an enemy but does not kill it she gains a stack of Frustration. Frustration stacks increase her damage by 200%, stacking multiplicatively. The maximum number of Frustration stacks is equal to the number of Champions adjacent to Prudence. Frustration stacks are reduced by 1 each time Prudence gets a kill.

Specializations

  • Eldritch Torrent — When Prudence attacks, there is a 50% chance that her base attack cooldown will be immediately reset.
  • She Hungers — When Prudence attacks, there is a 5% chance that her ultimate attack cooldown will be immediately reset.

Ultimate Ability

  • Hunger of Hadar — Prudence opens a gateway to the dark between the stars, a region infested with unknown horrors. An area of blackness and bitter cold appears on the ground between melee range and ranged range of enemies. Tentacles erupt out of it, pulling all enemies together.

New Tier 6 Crusader: Mitsuko the Six-Tailed

Tags: Event, Magical, Supernatural, Good, Support, Gold, Animal


Nate was wandering through the forest one day, exploring away from the main campsite. Coming upon a crossroads of trails, he's startled by the appearance of a figure in a fox mask, huddled on a boulder, looking like they're crying.

"Can I help you?" he asks.

"Do you have some snacks, brave and noble sir?" the figure responds. Nate clutches at some compartments on his bandolier and looks reluctant, but the figure starts crying again. "Sure, why not?" He reaches in and pulls out the sandwich he planned to eat later and gives it to the figure.

They eat it right away, and then scramble off the boulder and disappear into the forest, leaving Nate perplexed. He shrugs and keeps on walking, though sometimes he swears he catches a glint of a fox following him in the trees. Coming across a meadow, he decides to nap before returning to the group. He takes off his bandoliers and lays them on the ground beside him and dozes off.

A rustling wakes him up and turns to see a fox sneaking off with his bandoliers. He stumbles to his feet and gives chase, though he loses sight of the animal quickly. Cursing, he blunders a few more feet in and finds his bandoliers on the ground. He opens them to find them full of leaves. He's lost all the treasures he had on him. Sighing, he heads back to camp, hoping to ask for help from his fellow Crusaders.

Stepping into the main camp, he's surprised to find the other Crusaders surrounding a figure in a fox mask.

"What are you doing here?" he asks.

"That was fun earlier in the forest," they respond. " I'd like to come along and have more adventures. My name is Mitsuko."

Nate scuffs the ground, but the other Crusaders are excited for a new friend. Mitsuko has joined the party.

Mitsuko the Six-Tailed is a Support and Gold Crusader. When you want to add them to your formation, you can find them in slot 32.
