After venturing deep into The Mournland of Eberron to secure a third piece of the Rod of Seven Parts, the Champions are moving on to another dangerous destination: Barovia, the domain of Count Strahd von Zarovich.

On Wednesday, October 16, 2024 we will introduce a new unique currency, Platinum, to Idle Champions of the Forgotten Realms. Moving forward, Platinum will be the primary way to purchase items from the in-game Shop.

Introducing Platinum will dramatically increase efficiency and flexibility behind the scenes. It allows us to bring in new features like Daily Rewards, where players can claim Platinum and other rewards by playing the game, and Weekly Offers, which will give players more freedom to purchase individual items normally bundled into packs.

With this update we are also introducing Platinum Chests, a new tier of Chests only available through Platinum purchases that grants significantly increased item levels. Platinum Chest Packs also contain double the number of chests compared to Gold Chest Packs. Due to the significance of this change, we will be retroactively crediting additional Platinum Chests to eligible purchases made since September 1, 2024 when this update goes live.

As part of these exciting changes, all of our in-game shop items and platform DLC have had their pricing reviewed and updated. It was important to us that the switch to Platinum did not increase individual item prices - in fact, many items now come in at a slightly lower cost overall than before. For example, Theme Packs and Renown Packs have had their prices reduced 17% and 20%, respectively*. While the switch to Platinum applies to most in-game shop items, a select number of packs will remain as real money purchases on individual platform stores.

Overall, your money will go much further in this new system, and as an added bonus, your first purchase of each Platinum Pack option will reward double Platinum!

For additional information, please read the FAQs for each topic below.


*Prices for Theme Packs and Renown Packs reduced 17% and 20%, respectively when purchasing an equivalent platinum pack as the original $27.99 Theme Packs and $59.99 Renown Packs.

Please note that screenshots in this blog reflect a work in progress version of the Platinum, Daily Rewards, Weekly Offers, and Platinum Chest update. The finalized versions may differ in layout or appearance.



Platinum is a unique currency that can be used to purchase items in the shop.

Platinum is primarily purchased for real money in the in-game shop, but small amounts can also be earned in-game. You can claim free Platinum every day from your Daily Rewards. Small amounts of Platinum also occasionally appear as a free item in the Weekly Offers shop.

Platinum can be used in the Shop to purchase Chests, Champions, Packs, Wild Offers, and items in the Weekly Offers shop.

The Weekly Offers shop offers five unique items each week for a variety of discounts. The items can include familiars, golden epic equipment, skins, and epic feats from retired packages (otherwise known as the wild offer pool), as well as chests, Champions, potions, rare feats, and more. Most items in the Weekly Offers shop cost Platinum, but some cost gems, and some items are even free! If you want to get more offers each week, you can reroll individual offers for a small amount of Platinum. Check back every week to see what items are available for you!

Each day you can claim free Platinum and other items from your Daily Rewards. If you miss a day, you miss those rewards, so make sure to play the game and claim the rewards every day!

For a small amount of real money, you can unlock Daily Boost. This grants a moderate amount of Platinum upfront and then increases all of the Platinum rewards you claim from Daily Rewards for 30 days.

Platinum as an in-game currency offers several key advantages over only using real money:

• Earn Platinum for Free: This allows us to reward our players in-game with currency that can be used to purchase items in the shop that would otherwise be sold for real money. All you have to do is play the game!
  
• More Flexibility: Not only does this allow us to easily align sales across platforms, but with the added Weekly Offers system, it allows more freedom to purchase individual items that are normally bundled together.
  
• More Efficiency: This will allow us to reduce the amount of DLC we create on various platform storefronts, saving significant time behind the scenes. Instead, items will go directly into the in-game shop.

Some packs are available for real money so that Idle Champions can continue to be included in platform sales events and promotions. These packs and their unique contents will not be available for Platinum until after they are retired and their items enter the Wild Offer pool.

All existing items are either equal in cost or cheaper than they were previously due to the bonuses you can get by purchasing larger denominations of Platinum at once. There are some cases where, due to the Platinum pack sizes, you may need to buy a pack that contains more Platinum than you currently need in order to make a purchase. However, the leftover Platinum can still be used to purchase additional items - and if it is not enough to purchase something else, it can be saved up and combined with free Platinum from Daily Rewards until it is enough.

Please see the chart below. Additionally, as a bonus for players dipping their toes into the new Platinum Shop, the first purchase of Platinum at each of the price tiers will reward DOUBLE Platinum!



Each day, you can claim free Platinum and other items from your Daily Rewards. There are seven days per reward set, and if you miss a day then you miss out on that reward.

For a small amount of real money, you can unlock Daily Boost. This grants a moderate amount of Platinum up front and then increases all of the Platinum rewards you claim from Daily Rewards for 30 days. You can retroactively claim your additional Platinum on the day you purchase Daily Boost even if you've already claimed that day's rewards.


Your Weekly Offers shop offers five unique items each week for a variety of discounts. The items can include familiars, golden epic equipment, skins, and epic feats from retired packages (otherwise known as the wild offer pool), as well as chests, Champions, potions, rare feats, and more. Most items in the Weekly Offers shop cost Platinum, but some cost gems, and some items are even free!

The rarity of each offer indicates how big the discount is relative to the largest Weekly Offer discount you could see for that item. Different items have different discount rates, so a rare (blue) discount on one item could be different from a rare discount on another.

If you want to get more offers each week, you can reroll individual offers for a small amount of Platinum. Each reroll will generate a new offer for a random item with a rarity at least as high as the old offer.

They're free! Enjoy! Be sure to check your offers every week in case there's a free item for you!


Platinum Chests refer to Platinum-level Chests, a new more powerful tier of chests above Gold-level chests.

When you purchase chests with Platinum you now will, in most cases, receive a pack of Platinum-level chests instead of Gold-level chests. Platinum Chest Packs contain twice as many chests as Gold Chest Packs, so a purchase that used to award 7 Gold-level chests now awards 14 Platinum-level chests. As an example, buying an Artemis Skin & Feat Pack will now award 14 Platinum Artemis Chests, instead of 7 Gold Artemis Chests. Platinum Chests can not currently be obtained without spending Platinum.

Platinum chests contain the same items at the same odds as Gold chests, and they even share an epic pity timer with Gold-level chests, but they have one important distinction: duplicate equipment found in Platinum Chests awards 30 additional item levels. When combined with the increased number of chests awarded in packs, this means that Platinum Chest Packs increase a Champion's average item level by considerably more than Gold Chest Packs, granting far more power and progression.

Yes. Supply Chests, Modron Component Chests, and Glory of Bahamut Chests do not have Platinum-level versions, as they do not contain Champion equipment.


We understand that changes like this can seem scary. We invite you to check out Developer Insights on https://www.twitch.tv/cnegames at 2:00 PM Pacific Time on October 10 where our two co-founders, David and Justin, will be discussing and answering questions related to the changes. Don't forget to check back on October 16th to start collecting Platinum from your Daily Rewards!

Молодая эладринка, воспитанная, чтобы стать королевой Кошмарра. Однако ее идеальная распланированная жизнь приняла мрачный оборот в ночь ее свадьбы. Став марионеткой в руках высших сил, она оказалась в Морденте — одна из множества скитающихся призраков. Она представляла большой интерес как для Азалина Рекса, так и для Страда, и пыталась договориться о своем освобождении из доменов Ужаса. Ее давние спутники и их новообретенные друзья хотели того же и вложили ее душу в меч Десмонда. Пока они путешествовали в поисках способа вернуть ее душу в тело, Вороника взяла дело в свои руки и использовала корону Королевы Воронов, чтобы одолеть Зибеллину, и Призмир пал. Это привлекло туманы к Воронике, и вскоре она стала новой тёмной владычицей Кошмарра.

Игроки могут разблокировать Воронику во время события «Ночь лжецов» со 2 по 23 октября. Загляните в раздел Представление воителя: Вороника[codenameentertainment.com], чтобы узнать больше об этой могучей тёмной владычице!

Welcome to our preview for the Liar's Night Event Augments!

Our second Year 8 Event launches on Wednesday, October 2nd, and marks the debut of our first Augment to become a permanent Event feature! Liar's Night 8 will feature two returning Augments and two new Augments. For more information about which Event Augments will be active, read on!

Event Augments are unique modifiers to each event that can enhance almost any aspect. When M-M-M-ulti-Tier hit the scene on Ahghairon's Day, it was clear that this upgrade was exactly what the Augment system was made for. Player sentiment reinforced our gut feeling that M-M-M-ulti-Tier was an Augment that needed to stay. It remained as an Augment in Highharvestide, and as of Liar's Night next week, it has graduated to become a permanent Event feature!

• Permanent Event Feature: M-M-M-ulti-Tier
  
  Description: Completing an event variant in a high enough area will award multiple tiers of progress.

• Augment 1: Boon Enhancements (Returning Augment)
  Description: An additional boon buff at each level increases gems dropped from bosses.

• Augment 2: Auto-Equip (New Augment)
  Description: Event Champions whose recruitment adventure or variants you complete gain common rarity equipment in all slots, if they don't already have better.

• Augment 3: Auto-Blacksmith (New Augment)
  Description: Every tier two or higher event variant completed automatically applies 100 Tiny Blacksmithing Contracts to the variant's Champion's equipment for free!

• Augment 4: Worth The Wait (Returning Augment)
  Description: Rebalanced Champion Voronika will unlock at the start of week two of this event, and completing her tier 2+ variants awards double chests!

Note: Similar to our rollouts in August[http//August] and September[http//September], the spotlight blogs for the two Featured Champions next month will also be spread out, with Kas the Bloody Handed releasing tomorrow, September 27th, and Voronika's releasing next Friday, October 4th.
