Season
5: Acquisitions Incorporated

Jim Darkmagic is one of the Champions of Idle Champions of the Forgotten Realms. He was obtained from the Ahghairon's Day event, but is now only available through Time Gates or from purchasing a Jim Champion Pack from the in-game shop.

Jim is a DPS and Support Champion. His Wand of Wonder offers varied Support effects, and his Magic magic magic magic increases the DPS of Champions with magic base attacks.

Once unlocked, you can swap this Event Champion with Minsc in slot 7.

Backstory[]

James Winifred Darkmagic III is the scion of a mysterious, multiplanar wizarding family. As an entertainer and purveyor of the 'Jim Darkmagic Experience,' the legendary mage can often be found in markets and town squares performing feats of mundane legerdemain. The renown he has earned for these feats is nearly equaled by the reputation that follows him as a Chief Arcanist (and occasional arsonist) for Acquisitions Incorporated.

Abilities[]

Jim's Magic Missile – Base Attack

Jim attacks random enemies with his own brand of magic missiles.

Hidey-Box – Level 0 Ability

Jim hides in a magical box when the formation is under attack and attacks with twice as many magic missiles.

Fan Club – Level 20 Ability

Increases the damage of Jim and everyone in the columns in front of and behind him by 200% for each affected Champion, stacking multiplicatively.

Wand of Wonder – Level 50 Ability

Every 10 attacks, Jim uses his Wand of Wonder. It provides one of five random effects:
  • Turns a random enemy into a Large Warty Toad, stunning it for 5 seconds and then slowing it for 10 seconds after the stun wears off. It maintains its pre-transformation health.
  • Turns a random enemy into an Abyssal Chicken, reducing its max health by 5 orders of magnitude to a minimum of 10.
  • Turns a random enemy into a Mimic with 5 armored hit points that drops 10x normal gold when killed.
  • A random ally is assigned one of their skins at random until you change areas.
  • Jim shoots a line of gold coins out across the field, dealing damage to all enemies in a line and dropping one enemy's worth of gold.
Note: Transformations don't affect bosses or special enemies.

Magical Mystery Tour – Level 100 Ability

The effect of Fan Club is increased by 4% each time an enemy, ally, or ally's equipment is polymorphed or transformed in some way, stacking multiplicatively up to 100 times. Stacks reset when changing areas.
