Talents

Talents are effects purchasable with idols (Idols). They are divided into three categories: active, passive, and utility. There are seven tiers, with a requirement to pass a certain area in any objective, including Free Play during events.

• Tier 1: Area 150
• Tier 2: Area 300
• Tier 3: Area 600
• Tier 4: Area 900
• Tier 5: Area 1,500
• Tier 6: Area 1,800
• Tier 7: Area 2,700
• Tier 8: Area 3,000

Note: Buying Talents does not lower your Idol-based DPS and Gold Bonus.

The cost of a talent is

Ceiling(Base Cost * Multiplier ^ (n - 1))

where n is the level you're purchasing. Here are the approximate idols (due to rounding issues) needed for all talents, except those with infinite levels, up through each tier:

• Tier 1: 245K
• Tier 2: 3M
• Tier 3: 82M
• Tier 4: 3.3B
• Tier 5: 56T
• Tier 6: 196T
• Tier 7: 1.79Q

It is possible to respec talents, most commonly done after unlocking a new tier. Three respecs are granted at no cost, an additional respec will cost 10% of your current total idols. Whenever new talents were added, the number of free respecs was reset to three.

Note: On March 1st, 2019, some earlier talents were removed and incorporated into game functions. Buying all levels and upgrades is now available after clearing area 100 for the first time, so Upgrade It All and Spend It All were removed. Likewise, Speed Looter was depreciated as multiple chests can be opened once a player has opened their first 50 chests.
