Idle Champions of the Forgotten Realms News

Ever since she was a hatchling in her kingdom under the sea, Vlithryn has dreamt of helping the less fortunate land dwellers and spreading the good word of her God, Persana. She’s always willing to lend a helping hand, or a healing word, to those who need it - for the right price of course. She is usually cool, calm, and collected, but don’t get on her bad side, or her banshee scream and lighting attacks will leave you begging for a revivify that you can’t afford.

Vlithryn is a Support, Healing, and Control Champion who came to the surface world to help the unfortunate land dwellers. This devout follower of the deity Persana boosts the damage of Champions in front of her, heals the most injured ally every second, and can revive fallen Champions in moments of dire need.

If you want to learn more about this tempestuous Tempest Cleric of Persana, read on!

[h2]Vlithryn[/h2]



Patron Eligibility: Mirt, Vajra, Strahd, Elminster (until May 7th, 2028)


[h3]Abilities[/h3]
[h3]Basic Attack[/h3]

• Blessed Mace(melee) -Vlithryn attacks a random enemy, dealing 1 hit and knocking them back a short distance.

[h3]Formation Abilities[/h3]

• Justice of the Depths - Vlithryn increases the damage of all Champions in the columns in front of her by 400%.
  
• Cleric Clinic - Every second, Vlithryn heals the 3 most damaged Champion for 20 health. This amount is increased by 25% for each Tanking Champion in the formation.
  
• Pantheon of Blessings - Vlithryn increases the effect of Justice of the Depths by 10% for each Global Tier Blessing you have unlocked, stacking multiplicatively.
  
• Revivify - When a Champion is defeated, Vlithryn consumes a Revivify charge and screams in frustration, pushing back all enemies a short distance. She then casts Revivify and heals the defeated Champion, bringing them back to life at full health. Vlithryn's Revivify charges are equal to the number of Awful Ones in the formation and reset upon changing areas. The effect of Justice of the Depths is increased by 400% for each Revivify charge used in the current area, stacking multiplicatively.
  
• Divine Intervention - Vlithryn gains one Dire Straits stack every time she effectively heals a Champion with Cleric Clinic. When she reaches 30 stacks, Persana appears and blesses her with the following:
  
  - Revivify immediately gains an additional charge
  - Justice of the Depths is increased by 10% for each Dire Straits stack, stacking multiplicatively
  - The healing amount of Cleric Clinic is increased by 10% for each Dire Straits stack, stacking additively.
  
  Dire Straits stacks continue to increase after Persana appears, up to a maximum of 100. Upon changing areas, Vlithryn loses up to 25 Dire Strait stacks, and if her stacks drop below 30, Persana disappears, taking his blessings with him.

[h3]Specializations[/h3]

• Who Else Would Save Them? - Vlithryn increases Justice of the Depths' damage bonus by 200% for every Champion in the formation with an INT score of 12 or lower, stacking multiplicatively.

[h2]Notary System[/h2]

Today we're launching the long-awaited Notary system! Read on for all the details...

What is the Notary?

The Notary allows Blacksmithing and Bounty Contracts to be converted between rarities at no cost. You can also directly convert Bounty Contracts into Event Tokens without needing to use them (though you forfeit the gold reward). Finally, you can purchase the average contents of Silver Chest and Gold Chest bundles without having to purchase and open the Chests themselves.

Can I trade my Bounty Contracts for Blacksmithing Contracts, or vise-versa?

No, you can not trade between types of contracts. You can only convert between rarities of the same type.

What do I get when trading Bounty Contracts for Event Tokens?

You get the same number of Event Tokens by converting Bounty Contracts through the Notary compared to using them manually. However, you do not get any of the gold.

What do I get when purchasing Chest Contents with Gems?

When purchasing Chest contents with gems in the Notary, you will receive precisely the average Chest contents for the respective type, assuming all equipment items were duplicates. Purchasing Gold Chest contents will award Event Tokens and Feats, whereas the Silver Chest contents provide more Potion Reagents, Evergreen Item Levels, and Tiny Blacksmithing Contracts.

In order to access this tab, all of the Evergreen Champions you own (both core and unlocked) must have Epic or better equipment in all slots.

[h2]Opening the Vault[/h2]
The Vault reopens, offering different deals every day.

You can access the Vault from the notification pop-up or through the in-game shop.

For a fashionable amount of time only...
