Idle Champions of the Forgotten Realms - Codename

Avren tries Zorbu Farming in issue 4 of our fortnightly Idle Champions comics by GU Comics. It isn't very effective...

Artifact Pricing
Artifacts have now been capped at 60mil/artifact. This value will increase in future as new systems (i.e: Prestige) are added to the game.

Additionally, the increasing daily price curve on artifacts has been decreased, allowing for early-game players to pick up their first artifacts much faster.

Buy All Artifacts
In an effort to save everyone from carpal tunnel syndrome, a button has been added for purchasing the maximum amount of Artifacts at once.

Building Rebalances
All HQ buildings have had their Split/Steal bonuses greatly increased (50-100%).

Building Upgrade Buffs
Individual building buffs have been increased to scale from lv1-15, before maintaining an increased linear bonus rate of +25% per upgrade level (as opposed to a flat 10% per level).

Additionally, Buildings beyond level 7 have been set to scale with +5% ORG bonuses per level, rather than +2%.
HammerHelm - Calandryll
Today's update includes an in-game feedback form. To open the form, simply press and hold Left-Ctrl and then press F3. Doing this will automatically take a screenshot and then allow you to type in some information about the issue you are seeing.



The screenshot and form files are saved locally (they each have the same number) and then you can email them to Soedesco and myself!

This update also includes some fixes:
  • Fixed a bug that caused Carpenters to fail to start furnishing houses.
  • When clicking the "About" button in the NPC Conversation UI, the townsperson will correctly state their name.
  • The close button in the resource portion of the town manager now correctly closes the UI.
  • Fixed an issue that caused the Inventory UI to automatically appear when gathering resources causing the character to get in a stuck state after closing the UI.
  • Made some adjustments to the occlusion system to reduce shadow popping.

I'm in the process of making some changes to the Orc quest based on some great feedback. Basically going to shorten it and make it more focused so it doesn't take as long to complete. Less grind = more fun! Also likely going to do some quick tweaks to monster AI. They're still not attacking quite in the manner that I want them to.

Thank you again everyone for all of the feedback and support!

Hey everyone,

we hope you’re all doing alright and that you, your family and friends are safe and healthy!

We just wanted to let you know that we released a small update on Friday:

Change Log:

  • Some players seemed to be confused where to buy the bikes after the recent changes to the bike part system. You can buy them in the bike selection but from now on there is also the possibility to purchase them in the paint job customization screen.
  • We fixed a bug that you couldn’t progress in the game when you bought the second bike last as at that point you were not able to unlock the hard category on Redmoor Peaks Trail 4 anymore.

Have a good ride and take care of each other!

Daniel & Jan & Noah

PS: The bug fix for the progression bug will follow to consoles next month.
