Your adventures in Faerûn have taken you around the world of Toril, from the City of Sails in the north of the Sword Coast, all the way south to the jungles of Chult. It has been a grand tour of the realms, and along the way you've explored lost cities, delved into countless dungeons, crossed through pocket dimensions, and fought endless beasts, fiends, monstrosities, and more.

You've become Champions — but that's not all. These adventures have brought you more than just equipment and wealth: it's time to level up!

Today's update for Idle Champions brings with it increases to the upgrade cap for all 45 Champions, taking you from the e49 to the e56 range (roughly). This newfound strength will help your formations to push further than ever before. Good luck!

Coming Soon

• Year One Champion Balance Update (Part 1)
• Additional QoL Updates & Fixes
• And much more...

It's time for our newest Champion Spotlight! Today, we're previewing the release of Korth, the Lizardfolk Fighter (Samurai). Read on to learn about this new and exciting Champion debuting tomorrow June 12 in Dragondown Y2!

Who is Korth?

Korth is the latest CNE original Champion to join the roster. He joins fellow CNE Champions in helping us fill in races and classes for a super diverse group of Champions with more than enough bards!

Raised as a gladiator in the pit arenas of Kara-Tur, Korth has since traveled the world studying fighting styles and the art of war. Korth is infamous for his skill and efficiency in battle – and for his ruthlessness, as he never spares the lives of his opponents. Those who cross Korth's path do so at their own risk.

Korth's Stats

Race: Lizardfolk	Class: Fighter (Samurai)	Alignment: Neutral Evil
Age: 55	Affiliation: None
STR: 14	DEX: 18	CON: 16
INT: 10	WIS: 13	CHA: 12

To add Korth to your formation, you can swap him with Celeste (Slot 2).

Basic Attack

Samurai Slice: Korth charges out and attacks the nearest enemy with his Samurai sword.

Formation Abilities

• Lizardfolk Tactics — Whenever Korth attacks an enemy, that enemy gets a Marked debuff. A Champion that attacks one or more Marked enemies gets a single .25 second reduction to their next Base Attack cooldown.


• Fighting Spirit — When any Champion attacks a Marked enemy, they get a temp HP shield that is on a 15-second cooldown.


• Calculated — When any Champion attacks any Marked enemy, Korth increases the damage of all Champions by 25% (multiplicatively) for 15 seconds. Each in-formation Champion can contribute a single stack, and each stack expires separately.


• Rapid Strike — When any Champion kills a Marked enemy, they get a 25% chance to immediately attack again and have 5 seconds removed from their Ultimate Attack cooldown.


• Strength Before Death — When Korth is about to die, he is instead resurrected at 1HP and instantly performs an Ultimate Attack against the enemy that struck him. This ability has 3 charges, which restore at a rate of 1 per 5 minutes while online.

Specializations

• Group Tactics — Take this specialization to make Korth the centerpoint of a circle whose Champions deal greater damage against Marked targets.


• Rapid Training — Take this specialization if you want to focus on speed. Champions not adjacent to Korth will gain an additional .25 seconds to their base attack cooldown reduction when attacking Marked enemies. In addition, they will be more likely to attack again with Rapid Strike.

Ultimate Attack

Hungry Jaws — Forget the hippos! Fear the Lizardfolk! Korth leaps to the nearest enemy and ferociously bites them, causing massive damage and a bleed for 4x the base damage over 10 seconds!

Equipment

Final Thoughts

Korth is a skilled warrior who, despite his evil nature and alien way of thinking, supports your formation with multiple abilities centering around him Marking enemies. He'll be a skilled addition to your formation during tough boss battles!

As always, feel free to send us feedback on via the Idle Champions Subreddit, Steam forum, or the Idle Champions Discord!

Have you been frustrated that the in-game codes we and our partners give away could not be redeemed on your platform?

Well, fret no more, because there's a new system to redeem codes on all platforms as of today! Read on to find out how to redeem a new 12-character combination, how to enter an old 16-character code, and get a combination for a Gold Chest to try it out!

What previously were "codes" for free in-game items are now "combinations" for a Locked Chest that is always available in the game. Locked Chests can be accessed in 2 different ways depending on your platform.

Xbox One and PlayStation 4

On consoles, you can access the new "Locked Chest" redemption system in one of two ways:

• On your inventory screen, you'll see a new Locked Chest icon as your first chest. If you select that chest, it'll bring you to the Locked Chest combination screen!
  
  


• Otherwise, when you access the store, you'll see a new option in the upper right to "Unlock a Locked Chest". Select Y (Xbox) or Triangle (PlayStation 4) and it'll bring you to the Locked Chest combination screen!
  
  

All other platforms

On the rest of the platforms, you can access the new "Locked Chest" redemption system in one of two ways:

• You'll see a new Locked Chest in the upper right side of the chest screen. If you select that chest, it'll bring you to the Locked Chest combination screen!
  
  


• Otherwise, when you access the store, you'll see a new option in the upper right to "Unlock a Locked Chest". Select that and it'll bring you to the Locked Chest combination screen!
  
  

What about old codes?

On all platforms, if you have an old 16-character code, you'll see an option to switch to a 16-character combination in the lower left-hand corner of the combination screen! We'll be moving our partners to the new 12-character system in the coming weeks, so you might still see some 16-character codes popping up here and there.

Can I try it out?

Sure! Log into the game and enter this combination for a free Gold Chest!

While you're logged in, make sure to check out the new "C" Team weekly challenges for week 5!!

How long has it been since your last challenge? No need to answer — I can tell from your expression that you are eager for the latest test of your formation mastery: six new challenging variants!

Today's update includes two new variants for each of our permanent campaigns: Don't Look Up! and Friends of the Forest for Grand Tour of the Sword Coast, Treasure Hunters and Cramped Quarters for Tomb of Annihilation, and Stumbling Escape and Spined Nuisances for Waterdeep: Dragon Heist.

Your latest challenges await...

Grand Tour of the Sword Coast Variants

• The Silken Swamp: Don't Look Up! — Spiders descend upon the formation every 10 seconds, poisoning random Champions for 15 seconds. While poisoned, Champion damage is reduced.


• Supply Run: Friends of the Forest — Annoying (yet adorable) animals spawn with an assortment of obnoxious abilities, debuffing and attacking the formation.

Tomb of Annihilation Variants

• The Ring of Regeneration: Treasure Hunters — Two greedy Treasure Hunters take up slots in the formation, stealing 99% of the gold dropped for themselves along with half of all Quest Items.


• Seeking Allies: Cramped Quarters — Only dwarves, gnomes, kobolds, and halflings may be used.

Waterdeep: Dragon Heist Variants

• Nimble Escape: Stumbling Escape — Only Champions with a DEX (Dexterity) score of 13 or lower may be used.


• Fugitives: Spined Nuisances — Empowered Spined Devils appear at random and attack the formation.
