Daily checklist for idle players

The essential rhythm for steady progress: pre-logout setup, post-login claims, and resource management.

Community-informed · Verify current costs, restrictions, and tooltips in your client.

The five-minute login routine

Claim offline rewards, read the Monolith, inspect town actions, collect completed activities, and start the most reliable next loop.

Detailed login checklist:

• Claim accumulated offline rewards from all activities

• Check the Monolith for new objectives and claim completed ones

• Inspect Prison for recruitment opportunities (post-upgrade)

• Check Workshop for new gear or runeword possibilities

• Review Storage and sell accumulated junk

• Spend resources according to current Monolith priority

Pre-logout setup routine

Remove a fragile assignment, spend only on the current bottleneck, and confirm that the party can complete the chosen loop without help.

Pre-logout optimization:

• Ensure both battle lines have full teams of surviving heroes

• Verify frontliners have sufficient health and defense

• Confirm healers can sustain the team indefinitely

• Remove any pushing content that might stall overnight

• Start highest-value activities appropriate for away time

• Clear Storage space so drops do not get lost

Weekly maintenance tasks

Beyond daily routines, schedule time for these less frequent but important tasks:

• Review all six heroes for Baptism opportunities

• Assess gear across all slots for upgrade potential

• Check Codex for newly discovered runewords

• Re-evaluate team composition based on current content

• Compare current setup against class tier list

• Update personal notes on what upgrades fixed which walls

Keep your own notes

Record which activity stalled and which upgrade fixed it. Personal run history is more useful than a generic ranking once your roster and restrictions diverge.

What to track:

• Current progression wall (survival vs damage vs level cap)

• Recent upgrades and their impact

• Successful team compositions for different content types

• Resource stockpiles and spending priorities

• Long-term goals (specific runewords, set completions)

  • Community-informed and written as a practical starting point. Always verify current costs, restrictions, and tooltips in your client.
