Champion Update: Brother Uriah  
Posted in Idle Champions.
Tags: idle champions, idle, champions, new content, update, champion spotlight, brother uriah, black dice society, Dragondown.

    Brother Uriah Macawber is a native of Ravenloft, born in the dread domain of Darkon under the iron rule of Azalin Rex. After a horrifying childhood encounter at the Carnival with the demonic entity known as The Caller, Uriah would embrace the worship of the goddess Ezra, Lady of the Mists, offering protection from the forces of darkness to all those in need. Upon joining with the other future members of The Black Dice Society at the infamous House of Lament, Uriah would go on to find true love with his teammate, the undead Aasimar, Nahara... and would eventually discover the dark truth of both the nature of his deity and his mysterious connection to his former liege, the lich-king Azalin Rex.
Brother Uriah is receiving a major update arriving at the start of the second week of Dragondown, on June 10th. Let's take a look at the new-and-improved Brother Uriah!

Dragondown Event & Summer Queen Celebration! 
Posted in Idle Champions.
Tags: idle, champions, event, new content, update, trixie, brother uriah, dragondown.

It's the Summer Solstice in Faerûn, which means it is time for Dragondown and the Court of the Summer Queen Celebration!
    While the City of Waterdeep celebrates Dragondown by burning dragon effigies to symbolize the city's victories over invading dragons, some smaller celebrations focus on ceremonial bonfires and charms, with mock-spells and chanted prayers performed as the sun sets.

    But something has gone wrong in Luskan this year, where locals have drawn the ire of a Bronze Dragon and its kin...
Trixie the Pixie, a long-time antagonist to the Champions, often appearing astride a charmed creature and always up to some mischief, finally chooses the winning side and joins the Champions in today's Dragondown Event! Our second Featured Champion, Brother Uriah, will be receiving a significant update, with a new Champion Update blog coming on Friday, June 5th, before his launch next Wednesday, June 10th.

For details on Dragondown Year 9, and the Court of the Summer Queen Celebration, read on!

Featured Champions

Trixie

    Trixie the Pixie has been a forgettable nuisance for the Champions for a long time, often appearing astride some charmed creature and always up to some mischief. Ambitious and daring, Trixie desperately grasps at a life larger than she's been given, and blames the Champions for their constant meddling in her affairs. Driven to desperation by her many failed attempts at seizing power and influence, Trixie sets out to try a new scheme. She's seen firsthand that the Champions are always hiring. If she can't beat them, she'll join them!
Learn more about Trixie in her Champion Spotlight.

Introducing Trixie the Pixie

Tags: idle champions, idle, champions, new content, update, champion spotlight, trixie, dragondown.

    Trixie the Pixie has been a forgettable nuisance for the Champions for a long time, often appearing astride some charmed creature and always up to some mischief. Ambitious and daring, Trixie desperately grasps at a life larger than she's been given, and blames the Champions for their constant meddling in her affairs. Driven to desperation by her many failed attempts at seizing power and influence, Trixie sets out to try a new scheme. She's seen firsthand that the Champions are always hiring. If she can't beat them, she'll join them!
Trixie the Pixie is a Support, Debuff, and Control Champion who provides new options for creating formations with small (fairy, gnome, goblin, halfling, kender, kobold, and plasmoid) Champions. She increases the damage of Champions next to her, and this buff grows as you increase the number of small Champions in your formation. To help with this, she reduces the size of any non-small Champions in the two formation slots behind her and any Champions who share a species with either of them. Once unlocked, you can find this fairy druid in Seat 8 (Delina).

To learn everything you need to know about this small Champion with serious swagger, read on!

Abilities

Basic Attack

  • Pixie Charge (melee) - A pixie subordinate dives in and stabs a random enemy for one hit.

Formation Abilities

  • Dancing Lights - Trixie increases the damage of adjacent Champions by 100%.
  • Small Pranks - Trixie increases the effect of Dancing Lights by 100% for each Small Champion in the formation, stacking multiplicatively. Small Champions are fairy, gnome, goblin, halfling, kender, kobold, and plasmoid Champions.
  • Tricksy Pixie - Every time a Champion other than Trixie attacks, Trixie gains a Trick stack. When Trixie attacks, she expends all her Trick stacks to slow up to that number of random enemies by 50% for 10 seconds. If she has more Trick stacks than there are enemies, then she can use the extra stacks to stun that number of random enemies for 3 seconds. Additionally, one extra Pixie Subordinate attacks for every 5 Trick stacks expended. Trixie can not have more than 50 Trick stacks at once.
  • Debilitating Dust - If Trixie still has Trick stacks left after stunning all enemies on the screen, she uses the extra stacks to increase the damage a random enemy takes by 100% for 5 seconds. These debuffs can apply to the same enemy multiple times and stack multiplicatively.
  • Ultimate Undoing - Every time a Champion other than Trixie uses their ultimate ability, Trixie gains a Scheming stack, up to a maximum of 20 stacks. When Trixie uses her ultimate ability, she expends her Scheming stacks to increase the effect of Dancing Lights by 100% per stack, stacking multiplicatively. This buff lasts until the area is changed or until Trixie uses her ultimate again, whichever comes first.
  • Shrinking Dust - Champions in the formation slots directly behind Trixie are sprinkled with Shrinking Dust, which reduces them in size by 50% and makes them count as Small for abilities and variant restrictions that care about size. Additionally, all Champions that share a species with any Champion affected by Shrinking Dust are also sprinkled with Shrinking Dust.

Specializations

  • Faster, Friends - The damage of all Champions is increased by 100%. When a Familiar clicks on an enemy, it also reduces the Base Attack Cooldown of a random Champion other than Trixie by 0.2 seconds.
  • Ultimate Friends - The ultimate damage of all Champions is increased by 400%. When a Familiar clicks on a boss enemy, it also reduces the current Ultimate Attack Cooldown of a random Champion other than Trixie whose ultimate is on cooldown by .2 seconds.

Ultimate Ability

  • Call For Dev (melee) - Trixie flies off to get Dev the Devourer to consume the healthiest non-boss enemy, or otherwise deal an ultimate hit to a boss.

Champion Update: Melf 
Posted in Idle Champions.
Tags: idle champions, idle, champions, new content, update, champion spotlight, melf, the great modron march.

    Born into the royal family of Celene, he assumed the simple name of Melf eschewing a life of comfort as a noble to study the arcane arts and train as a swordsman. He delved in the dungeons of Castle Greyhawk, the Lost Caverns of Tsojcanth and many other harrowing places honing his skills, knowledge and amassing powerful magical items. Melf sees himself as a weapon of weal hurtling toward the heart of the darkest evils in the realm. He is opinionated and has a touch of conceit that he is blissfully ignorant of possessing..
Melf is receiving a major update arriving at the start of the second week of the Great Modron March. Lets take a look at the new-and-improved Melf!

Known as "The Great Modron March," this unstoppable tide of lawful constructs journeys across the material plane on the exact same route each time. However, this time something has changed -- the modrons are marching on Waterdeep.

The Great Modron March has returned for Year 9, introducing Laurana Kanan, The Golden General, and Hero of the Lance elf fighter, as well as bringing a major update to Greyhawk's Prince Brightflame himself, Melf

Featured Champions

Laurana

    Lauralanthalasa Kanan was a pampered princess of the Qualinesti elves. Then the flames of evil dragons threatened her people and Laurana joined with other heroes to fight the Dragon Queen. In time, she became known as the Golden General: a renowned fighter, dragon rider, and brilliant battlefield commander. Now a living symbol of hope, Laurana fights to save her people and the world.
Laurana is a Support and Tanking Champion whose abilities grow in power as you complete her 20 Achievements, representing her rise from a sheltered elven princess to the legendary Golden General. She increases the damage of Champions in one of three columns behind her, and she excels when assigned with the right soldiers. Once unlocked, you can find this Elf Fighter in Seat 7 (Minsc)

Learn more about Laurana in her Champion Spotlight.

Melf

    Born into the royal family of Celene, he assumed the simple name of Melf eschewing a life of comfort as a noble to study the arcane arts and train as a swordsman. He delved in the dungeons of Castle Greyhawk, the Lost Caverns of Tsojcanth and many other harrowing places honing his skills, knowledge and amassing powerful magical items. Melf sees himself as a weapon of weal hurtling toward the heart of the darkest evils in the realm. He is opinionated and has a touch of conceit that he is blissfully ignorant of possessing..
Melf is receiving a major update arriving at the start of the second week of the Great Modron March. His blog launches on May 8th!

Champion Update: Lucius Elenasto 
Posted in Idle Champions.
Tags: idle champions, idle, champions, new content, update, champion spotlight, lucius, heroes of aerois, simril.

    Lucius Virion-Elluin Elenasto was born to high nobility. He thought he knew what he was getting into when he joined the Heroes of Aerois, but then he met his first cow. Dreadful, evil creatures. Lucius is slowly coming out of his nobility shell as he continues to learn the true value of comradery, friendship, and a world without barriers.
Lucius has needed an update for a while now, and we're happy to finally dive in and modernize his design.

As an added surprise to this event, we've also made some small updates to how each of the other Heroes of Aerois Champions (Aila, Qillek, Sentry, and Nova) contributes stacks of Aerois Synergy!

Lets take a look at the new-and-improved Lucius Virion-Elluin Elenasto and the updates to his friends!

Abilities

Passive Abilities

  • Chromat Caster - Lucius alternates his attacks between two spells: Acid Splash and Ray of Frost.

Basic Attack

  • Acid Splash (magic) - Lucius attacks a random enemy with Acid Splash, dealing damage. Prefers enemies not affected by acid.
  • Ray of Frost (magic) - Lucius attacks the furthest enemy with Ray of Frost, dealing damage and also damaging all enemies along a line between him and the enemy.

Formation Abilities

  • Arcane Chromat - Acid - Enemies damaged by Acid Splash gain one stack of Acid. Each stack of Acid causes the enemy to take 400% more damage from all of Lucius' subsequent attacks, stacking multiplicatively up to 10 times.
  • Arcane Chromat - Cold - Enemies damaged by Ray of Frost are slowed by 50% for 10 seconds. Enemies slowed by this ability take 400% more damage from all of Lucius' attacks for each slow, stun, or root affecting them (stacking multiplicatively), including this slow.
  • Elemental Adept - When an enemy is affected by both of Lucius' Arcane Chromat abilities at the same time they are stunned for 3 seconds. When the stun expires they "explode" with acid and ice, applying one stack of Acid and dealing 10 seconds of BUD-based damage to themselves and all enemies in a small radius. The exploding enemy's Arcane Chromat - Cold debuff is then consumed.
  • Aerois Synergy - Lucius contributes 2 stacks to Aerois Synergy every time Elemental Adept is triggered; if a boss enemy is combo'd it adds an additional 8 stacks (10 total). Lucius' maximum number of stacks is 200 plus the highest area completed in the current run divided by 5 (rounded down). 10% of his contributed stacks are removed when changing areas. Lucius' base damage is increased by 50% times the total number of Aerois Synergy stacks, with this bonus doubling for every 100 total stacks.
  • Armor Eating Acid - Enemies with segmented health lose 1 extra segment when Lucius damages them with his Acid Splash attack or Elemental Adept explosion.

Specializations

  • Dichromancy - Lucius gains a Dichromancy stack every time the Elemental Adept ability triggers an explosion. Lucius' damage is increased by 100% for each Dichromancy stack he has, stacking multiplicatively up to 25 times. Stacks reset when changing areas.
  • Corrosion Master - Lucius attacks twice with his Acid Splash before switching to Ray of Frost. Additionally, enemies affected by at least 2 stacks of Acid take 400% more damage from all of Lucius' attacks.
  • Lingering Chill - Lucius attacks twice with his Ray of Frost before switching to Acid Splash. When an enemy explodes and loses their Arcane Chromat - Cold debuff, they gain a Lingering Chill debuff which slows them by 25% and lasts for 20 seconds. Additionally, enemies affected by at least 2 slow effects take 400% more damage from all of Lucius' attacks.

Ultimate Ability

  • Prismatic Spray (magic) - Eight multi-coloured rays flash from Lucius' hand in a cone shape. Each enemy in the cone takes acid/cold damage and receives both the Arcane Chromat - Acid and Arcane Chromat - Cold effects (causing them to freeze and then explode in several seconds due to Elemental Adept).

Additional Champion Updates!

As part of the exciting updates for Lucius above, we've updated his Aerois Synergy ability so that the Aerois Synergy pool only loses 10% of Lucius' contributed stacks when changing areas. Based on how that played, we decided to make the same change to the Aerois Synergy abilities for Aila, Qillek, Sentry, and Nova. With the update to Lucius on April 8th, the shared Aerois Synergy pool will only loose 10% of each of the Heroes of Aerois' contributed stacks instead of 50% when changing areas!

Aila

Aerois Synergy — Aila contributes one stack to Aerois Synergy every time any Champion attacks an Electrified enemy. Their maximum number of stacks is 200 plus the highest area completed in the current run divided by 5 (rounded down). 50% 10% of her contributed stacks are removed when changing areas. Electrified enemies take additional damage equal to 10% times the total number of Aerois Synergy stacks.

Qillek

Their maximum number of stacks is 200 plus the highest area completed in the current run divided by 5 (rounded down). 50% 10% of his contributed stacks are removed when changing areas. Bless is increased by 25% times the total number of Aerois Synergy stacks.
