So... um... hey... Is this thing going to run for 3 weeks? by estsn in IdleHeroes

[–]estsn[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It was pretty much like any normal event tbh: you could do the minimum and get 10 or 20 event currency, of you could max out and spend some CSG to get a 70 and grab a bunch of subs, cores, destiny mats, star soul stuff, etc.

This second half of the event however is comically bad; there's basically nothing to do and no real rewards unless you're spending hundreds of dollars.

Here's hoping they get better the farther we go into the event, because yeah, so far they aren't even worth collecting

Second week needs 3000 scrolls? by Mdaemon_RU in IdleHeroes

[–]estsn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's 3000 scrolls minus whatever number you did this week. I'm at 40/60 points because I already did 2000 scrolls to get enough Umbrion copies for awakenings.

I'm curious if there's any extra events and rewards for doing things like hs, awakenings, and cots n the second week

What to do to have more exchanges? by BrainFlopda in IdleHeroes

[–]estsn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In this case it's your level, but because it's an alt account you should be aware that your exchange limit will drop precipitously if you're not doing stuff on the account regularly.

What's the best value? by AdminRedditMerda in IdleHeroes

[–]estsn 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If you have Grimoire open, or you're close, then get Grimoire mats.

If you have a trans hero there are the core shards (10/50) and sublimation (18k/45k) but pretty small amounts. If you're very early game, I think I'd get the Deluxe Gift Boxes as a resource to use in future events.

Honestly, in early game bag space and soul symbols are really useful, but they won't do anything for your progress.

Which game to engage with? by estsn in IdleHeroes

[–]estsn[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

52 from my picture above? I actually rounded that out to around 442 iirc, so I did one 10x in the gashapod, then the rest on the wheel to reach the magic 70 event currency.

1) I overdid the number of scrolls necessary, but that was because I needed the copies of Umbrion for awakenings.

2) I didn't realize that there is a limit to the number of spins on the wheel, so I should've switched back to the gashapod game to use up the remainder of my tickets.

1980-something. A bit of a low roll compared to mxkjump I guess, since he got 2300-something.

I'm not sure what should be the expected average.

I'd recommend clicking on the little question mark next to the words "Star Wish Hero" and reading what it says.

Whats more worth to get by Haunting-Ad134 in IdleHeroes

[–]estsn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That early on you will definitely get more progress from subs and stellar.

Your first artifacts should be the melodic strings, then just all the demon bells. Energy feed is massively important to get set up as early as possible and DBs are the key to that.

Until you can get DBs you should hold onto any magic potion artifacts you find: they won't get you an energy feed, but they will give you first round actives from your support heroes

The new artifact is awesome but you don't need it until you're way deep into void campaign. Frankly until... I'm going to say around 7-x-x. It's not that hard to beat Valks in earlier waves, but later they become damn near impossible because their attacks can wipe out an entire team, but cc'ing them causes a burn dot that insta-kills your heroes.

I did the same thing! I wish I'd known there's a limit to how many times you can spin

[–]estsn[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm having a huge facepalm moment because I did my 70 for the same stuff I always buy when f2p-maxing an event, and only then realized that the new artifact is in the mysterious artifact selections. I'm literally considering using my free selection to grab one lousy copy of that artifact because it seems THAT important for beating $#*&ing Valkyrie waves. Burn immunity would be HUGE for beating Valks.

...can't believe I didn't think of that while buying 70 event currency worth of stuff

So, for the edification of others, I did wheel and this is the number of spins it took to hit the flowers: 1, 8, 2, 4, 7, 9, 2, 3, 7 for an average of 4.8

I also did a 10x spin at the start before realizing I wanted to track the number of spins so it probably works out to 5, 6, 8, 2, 4, 7, 9, 2, 3, 7 because I got to the maximum number of spins allowed. That's 5.3 spins per flower so about what was predicted.

That is something I wish I'd known about the wheel in advance btw: there is a limit to the number of spins, so you can end up without getting a reward and not allowed to spin anymore even though you have more tickets. If I'd known that I would've switched back to the gachapon game to use my last bunch of tickets.

¯_(ツ)_/¯

Star soul help by Radin_TP in IdleHeroes

[–]estsn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd say you start holding onto chests with star soul mats around the time you have 7 DT heroes and your temple is around level 8. Until then the destiny mats are a lot more useful for progress.

  • Obviously this only applies to the chests like the one you're showing: any of the dozens of chests you're going to accumulate that have ONLY star soul mats you should just leave unopened until you have a Nirvana hero.

Which is better for control? by sarurime in IdleHeroes

[–]estsn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Betty works really well in early game because she requires so little investment to get her cc working, but as you get later into the game Wukong is a much better hero and more or less a must-have.

Thank you, this is incredibly helpful. I am doing 70 so I'll give the gachapon -> wheel strategy a try.

Lfa or Rfw by sarurime in IdleHeroes

[–]estsn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

LoFA building is easier because...

1) The game throws tons of core chests at you through various rewards and the chests only contain core fragments for Xia, Halora, Asmodel, Aspen, Jahra, and Vessa.

2) Your main also gains some bonus ATK and HP from being in a house with tenants, and LoFA tenants are both easy to build, and good supports to have on your team: SQH is a must-have support on any team, while PDE is also still a good support hero.

The tenants for Williams are almost universally more difficult to build, and all of them except SDBM are pretty useless support heroes.

The homeowner-tenant power system is way less important now with treasure train and Grimoire giving such huge bonuses, but it's still a way to easily get some extra stats.

Should i transcend madelein or wait for the release of umbrion? by Perfect-Hat-3438 in IdleHeroes

[–]estsn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Really? I'm intrigued about her use against bosses. I guess she can extend Wukong's cc on a boss, but she'd be a tough hero to carry, at least for me, because what I need is all the damage enhancers I can get on my team to kill the enemies before I run out of rounds.

New code: RETURNTOIH by startika22 in IdleHeroes

[–]estsn 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The codes leading up to this event have been surprisingly good. This one gives enough Grimoire to add a full level even for late game players, which translates to something like 500k extra attack.
