Lava's Legends of IdleOn keeps up to ten characters on one account and farms with every one of them at the same time, online or offline. Seven worlds run from Blunder Hills through Yum-Yum Desert, Frostbite Tundra, Hyperion Nebula, Smolderin' Plateau and Spirited Valley to Shimmerfin Deep, each gated behind a world boss. Nearly everything you earn is account wide, so the character you never log into still pays into the whole roster.

Picking the right build determines how your experience plays out. These builds are ranked by overall effectiveness, factoring in damage, survivability, gear requirements, and how well they scale into endgame. New to the game? Start with our beginner's guide first.

  • Excels in its niche

Cons:

  • High skill floor, punishing when misplayed

Build Progression Path

  1. Start with Divine Knight: the most forgiving option for learning the game
  2. Transition to Blood Berserker once you understand core mechanics and have access to Amarok set
  3. Keep a Siege Breaker setup for content that keeps killing you
  4. Try Elemental Sorcerer for a fresh experience once you've mastered the basics

Follow our walkthrough for the optimal progression path through each area.

Gearing Tips

  • Invest in your primary equipment first, since it gives the biggest power spike. See our weapons guide for rankings.
  • Fill every character slot as soon as the game offers one, even if the new character is level 1. An idle level 1 still generates AFK gains, still contributes to the Guild bonus and still counts toward account wide totals, so an empty slot is pure lost income.
  • Decide which Elite class you want on each character before you take the World 2 subclass, because Divine Knight only comes from Squire and Siege Breaker only comes from Bowman. Rerolling later means repeating the whole class quest chain.
  • Don't spread upgrade resources across multiple builds until endgame
