How to farm IDOLS?

[DoctorMozG]

I have all single level of game maps open to start. I farm Idols in free play of first possible chapter of the game cause it has the most possible levels in it. Is there a better way to farm Idols?

Nah, free play is the best way. Early on, whichever you can do. Though the further down in the campaign list, with the exception of event free play, the more - you get more levels in fewer areas due to higher gold drop. (Area is the number in the minimap where the arrow points where you are, level are crusader levels you buy with gold.) Do event free play when you can.

Reset when you start seeing hp bars, don't try to push on, that's wasting time you could already spend on the next free play.

There's probably more I'm not thinking of right now. (And much later there's bonus idols when you've done certain higher tier objectives.)

When you can reach the respective areas in an event free play to unlock talents, and higher tier talents, there are some that help with dps or outright reducing the number of levels needed per idol gained.

You do know to not forget to level all crusaders (the ones at the front of the bench, not others sharing it) before reset, right?

"All single level", do you mean tier 1?

As long as Bonus Idols are not involved i would recommend Event freeplays. Usually the event freeplays are "easier to get further"so more idols per freeplay.

Yes Ossi, I did say Do event free play when you can. :) (Though you giving a reason is good too.)

in terms of getting really far really fast, Ready Player 2 is my roccomended. it has the least amount of drop quests, and an insane gold boost (100 jim lvls from 1 lvl1 monster kill)

If you are able to play on Ready Player 2 you should be able to get bonus idols soon. Which means WW is best no matter what really.

I play on World's Wake free play, others chapters free play give more idols?

More idols per area, which means more idols per time spent on it, the further down the normal campaigns you go.

Event free play is best though, as mentioned.

How far can you progress right now? Are you able to hit level caps?

The later free plays are also harder. They'll give you more gold for leveling your crusaders, which means more idols, but you also will not be able to go as deep for say Deep Idol Scavanger. It starts to come down to a matter of preference.

And of course, if you can unlock WW bonus idols, do that always.
