So if I add a champion (say Jarlaxle) it's disabled for ALL participating players?
Makes me weary with playing with randomers in case I lose a champ I need for (say) the weekly challenges!

Also, do I understand making equipment legendary will ONLY add the random effect? That is... not quite what I expected

If I start compaign alone, can other players join me?

SO, as i see it, multuplayer costs real $$$.

Am I to assume that it will cost each player in a multiplayer group the same purchase?!?!

No. you just lose access to your own champion, i can still access the ones other players are using in the campaign.

So far as i can tell the only real world cost would be if you were to buy scrolls to boost your damage/gold find.

[SevenBlueSeven]

So what is the purpose of the prismatic difficulty pack? IT seems that it is required to do the missions

[a holy terror]

Looks like that's needed for for starting campaigns at higher level difficulties. Cant tell if they're purely obtained using $$$ or if there's an option to get them in game as rewards. I'm sure somebody will have read the info in more detail!

You can buy the vials for scales as far as I can tell
This page has some answers (or at least suggestions) how things work / may work

Are the restrictions the same for everyone? Mine for today is only 10 cha or higher.

Do I understand it correctly that it's advisable to earn as much Bahamut favor as possible on day 1 as the restrictions will only increase?
E.g. if I want to rely on click damage + I want to have plenty of favor to convers then day 1 is the day to farm?

At least on normal, I don't think farming favor is important at all. The level requirements are a joke. I think the strat will be to do a single deep run, enough to hit the level cap and get a full stack of 100 on your tank. Do a little "damage farming" and reset. The other days you just do a quick run to complete the mission.

well you do convert the favor so I guess if you care about it you should do a deep run - ideally first day.
The level requirements are kind of a joke (let's see what higher tiers bring) but still if they add limitations it can drastically reduce the number of heroes you can use - that is why I would just rely on click damage - and for that you need a deep run to get your favor.

My limitation is STR 10 - I think it depends on the trial you are doing? Mine is PLAINS - Prep the protal
if I read it correctly the STR 10 stays and after 24 hours they ADD a new limitation for you to struggle with the next level

[Soteria]

Yeah, good point about favor conversion. Just looked at Gaar's guide here https://www.reddit.com/r/idlechampions/comments/powmaw/gaarawarrs_guide_to_the_trials_of_mount_tiamat/ , sounds like it's same as for time gates.

Interesting. I'm doing the mountain. And yeah, new restrictions every day. It's not gonna take us 7 days to do it, though.

Also, despite what the game text says, and Gaar's guide, the damage is NOT based on BUD. I registered 273 dps, which matched up with my in-game average dps. At the time, my BUD was 213... I don't think I could ever get a BUD of 273, and definitely not with a 9-champ formation.

I thought it was based in max running average.
Surely not BUD, I agree. I just got e265, my BUD was WAY below that as I was doing click damage

[ptor]

STR10+ here on Forest (grand tour formation)
Gaar's made a guide? Click! :)
BUD seems the wrong value, maybe it's un-filtered BUD (i.e. INCLUDING the boost from debuffers)? Otherwise a buff-heavy version would be preferable (bye orkira? )

[SevenBlueSeven]

It all seems pretty dang confusing to me. And that is enough for me to avoid it altogether.
