I don't know if Idle Heroes is on Steam. I'm guessing not. It's heavy on the micro transactions that are mobile games. I'm having fun with it, but don't jump into it to be able to play with me. I'm not sure we have time for two very low commitment grinder games! But seriously, I have no idea how/if we can get on the same server, etc. IF you do though, let me know. Maybe if we start at the same time, we'll end up on the same server. I would start a new account/character. But again, multi play just means we can send each other hearts that help you create heroes and we can be in the same guild beating on the same boss monster. Not a lot of interaction.

Ummm. Random googling for info led me to the fact that people sell their Idle Heroes accounts on Ebay. My account is probably worth about $20 right now!

At lvl 50 you start seeing mirror shards. Find all 13 and you can then do missions while your "mirror image" can still do dungeons and the arena.

Decent Guide for character build, pets, items, etc.
On my original account, I'm on the #25 ranked guild, rapidly approaching lvl 200, have opened up most of the game, and might be moving to another guild higher on the rankings list soon. (The leader of mine seems to have gone inactive.)
On the account with Cake (different server as well), I'm creeping on lvl 140 and have recruited the FUCK out of solo players and other guilds. That has moved us into the top 90 and we've got two players near 200, which is a rarity.
A few weeks back our biggest gun left our guild. I replaced him by proposing a merger with another guild. Then a week ago I had two more defections and a bunch of inactives. Today I'm having to turn down high leveled folks who want invites. It may crash and burn tomorrow, but I'm proud of what I've achieved via diplomacy with actual human beings and not AI.

They added an "Arena Manager" game that is a ripoff and scaled down version of Adventure Capitalist.
I'll give the developers this, they aren't resting on their laurels. They are constantly putting in new wrinkles.

Hey Cake, I think I'm thisclose to calling it on this game. Thoughts?
The constant recruiting is really taking a toll. Plus, it seems like all the Euro guilds dominate the game. No idea why, but on both servers it's all Germans and whatnot at the top of the leaderboard.
Our guild's membership doesn't seem to contain enough people who play often enough for us to compete. On my other server that guild has members on non-stop, and the guild is top 10. Seriously, nobody gets to <24 hours, let alone <2d.
I think I'll promote a player or two to officer and see if they bring some life to it.

I'm not nearly as invested as you are. Hell, I'm sure I'm one of the people dragging the guild down! Way behind in levels. Which I guess is a bit better than an inactive. HOWEVER! I do spend mushrooms on guild boosts here and there (and on the pet). I have no need for them otherwise. I don't speed production or buy items with them. When you are done, I'll be done. But till then, it's something to log into for a few minutes to click on stuff and see what the next milestone is.

My other character is about to hit 300. I'm going to see how I feel after that. I know that right now I'm getting to the point where it's becoming like a job, and that's usually when I stop playing something.

These updates are actually cool.o A new chest! Upgrade your treasury (fortress) from levels 16 to 45 to gain up to 30 additional inventory slots. Once built, click the new icon in the upper-right corner of your avatar to access the chest.
o New dungeon "Nordic Gods". Requirement: level 180 (light), level 280 (shadow), both keys buried in gem mine.
o Advent calendar: 20 doors with little presents. In December you can open one door a day and if you aren't online daily, nothing is lost as you have the entire month to open all of them, with the restriction of 1 door per day.
o 10 new achievements in your scrapbook
o New platinum upgrades for your Arena Manager. Fully upgrade your manager with all money and speed boosts to unlock platinum upgrades for a twice as high money boost!
o No more luck epics in the game!
Love that they dumped luck items since everyone has it maxed out pretty quickly.
I'm going to ride through December and see where I am with the game in the new year.

Hey Cake, this weekend's event will probably be my last hurrah. I've got hundreds of those things that let you skip mission time, so I figure I'll burn through the weekend's event easily.
My original character is almost lvl 400 and in a top 5 guild. However, I've beaten most of the game. The guild demon portal isn't even active for us anymore. I've essentially hit the end game in the underworld. I've maxed out my fortress. And so on.
I have greatly enjoyed chasing the next achievements and levels, which is really the draw of this type of game, but I've attained most. Now the core war of attrition is the only thing still in my path and I'm not interested in continuing. Mainly because everything is on such a schedule and because the developers clearly have the mushrooms and magic shop designed to try and encourage the purchase of mushrooms. Hell, the only reason I lasted as long as I did is because the app originally had easy offers for tons of free mushrooms.
Plus, back to my original character, nothing is changing on that server. Every guild in the top 10 has been in the same position forever.
And honestly, running a guild is the most exhausting part. If it wasn't for that I could take days off. I've been debating which character to give to someone else. The original or the one running TKV. I'm thinking I'm going to hand off TKV to the guys in Seahawk Nation.
OR just rename the guild, appoint someone else as leader, drop them an email explaining how to stay on top, and then delete my account. Decisions, decisions.
Anyway, my idle gaming will be NGU Idle (solo game with math, charm, and just fucking boatloads of milestones and whatnot) and Firestone Idle. Both can be played actively or very hands off, which is a big step away from the appointment gaming that S&F kind of required. You're welcome to join me there if you also want to have an idle game going to fill time when you're eating lunch or whatever, like me.
