What is Almost A Hero?

Almost A Hero is a mobile RPG clicker game where 15 of the most useless idiots embark on a quest to be slightly less useless idiots.

15 deeply unique and deeply flawed individuals have been chosen for greatness. Heroic, noble, enlightened... Just 3 of the many words they can’t spell. They will set off on an epic journey that will turn them from zeroes to almost heroes. Or dead people. More likely the latter.

What is that?

That right there in the red circle, some sort of egg? What does it do? It comes up out of the ground then pops.

Help with Switching Heroes

How come I cant find a guide that explains how to use unlocked heroes? I've got Hilt, Vexx, Bellylarf, Kind Lenny, Sam, V, Wendle, and Lia. I only have access to those heroes in adventure mode. I've recently unlocked, Handsum Jim, and Tam. But for the life of me, I cannot figure out how to switch out old heroes to tryout new ones that I've unlocked. Help please! I dont need help with hero lineup, I just want to know how to use unlocked heroes and switch out the starter ones.

"No Season Available At The Moment", for the past three days - Is AAH really dead now?

Title basically says it all. I've seen the "No Season" message before as an occasional 24-hour gap between seasons, but it's never lasted longer than that before.

Freezing when using cloud save

Hello! After a few years of not playing, I decided to install the app again. Problem now is, I can't reload my cloud save, since the game freezes up. Even when I minimise the app, the music still plays

Goodbye, Almost a Hero

Guys, unfortunately, I had to quit the game.
I switched my phone from Android to iOS, so I contacted support to migrate my game save so I could continue playing (I had done this years ago, and it worked). Support replied to my email and did upload my save, but it was an old version from years ago, far behind where I was. I asked support again to update it, but I never got a reply, sent several emails, and nothing. It’s a shame they abandoned the game and its players. Best of luck to everyone.

Coming back, how is the game doing?

I used to play kinda seriously before Gates and pets and all of that, the game felt kinda stale but I loved it for a long time. I've been looking for an idle to play and I thought I could give AaH another chance. So how is the game doing? Has it changed much? I thought about making a new account since I have most artifacts maxed, and all characters maxed but idk if the grind is gonna be too much

Endgame guide and help (5000+) for 5.7.3 patch

I reinstalled the game recently and just can't get over stage 5500. My goal is to reach stage 6000, where the quests (and rewards) stop, I am not interested in speedrun. I have followed all the guides in this sub for the past few days, but I feel like something is wrong, or I am missing something maybe.

Current state

I have all heroes level max, all heroes items level max and all relics (recent patch content I guess). I have all mythical artifacts level max (except Lazy Finger lvl 468/477 and Fixed Teleporter lvl 399/430) and almost all regular artifacts level max (see image for the few unique bonuses I miss). I have Aeon, Scrap and Token mines level max. I have all charms level max.

My max stage is 5476. I completed all 170 Gates of Gog. I didn't used to do Season challenges but I understood that animals are quite a thing so I tried for the last few days and my current total max stage is 1225. My Almost a Tavern is lvl 72 (miss some tokens to level up).

I use Vexx, V, Jim, Oy and Ron for Adventure (as recommended for endgame comp in 3yo general guide) and other for Gates of Gog and Seasons, usually Lenny, Bellyarf, Sam, Redroh and Nanna.

I used to use the Lightning ring (pretty fast during recovery using the auto tap deal and the Fixed Teleporter mythical artefact). I am ready to use other rings, but I am not sure they are really efficient when trying to max stage (and I don't have a lot of runes).

Trinkets, Runes and Seasons animals

I didn't used to use trinkets either, only a few I had forged not knowing what I was doing. I have now max trinkets for Vexx, V, Jim, Oy and Ron that are recommended in the 3.10 patch guide. I still need to forge trinkets for heroes I use in Gates of Gog and Seasons, but as those go pretty well, they were not my priority.

I used to use Bounce (lvl 10), Charge (lvl 7) and Daze (lvl 8) runes on my Lightning ring for Adventure. Now I use this ring and those runes for Seasons. On Adventure, I use the Ice ring with Cold Wind (lvl 8), Ice Rage (lvl 7) and Nova (lvl 8) runes as recommended in Endgame guide video by LEBALdy. I do not have the Stinger rune for the Ice ring, neither as Creep, Shroud and Corrupt for the Darkness Ring and neither as Inner Fire, Progressive Fire and Metero Shower for the Fire ring that are recommended.

I didn't used to use animal, so they're pretty low level. I use lvl 7 Gold Mouse, lvl 1 Gold Chicken, lvl 5 Fire Tiger, lvl 2 Ninetail and lvl 5 Darkness Wolf for Adventure, and I use lvl 3 Poison Spider, lvl 3 Earth Armadillo, lvl 2 Bull, lvl 7 Gold Mouse and lvl 3 Earth Porcupine for Seasons as recommended. I will level them up during the upcoming seasons.

Main questions

Do I really need to keep going for Gates of Gog? I mean, once I have maxed trinkets for all my heroes, I don't think I'll need more scraps.

How do I get the runes I miss? I saw on the wiki you get them as "Drop", but I can't remember of getting them in a chest. I bought one in Flash offers, is it the only way to get them? That will take me ages to have them all.

How do I level max runes? I desperately lack of elemental spirit-ish things required to upgrade runes and I can't remember how I got the few I have. Are they only rewards for Adventure quests? If so, I'll have a problem in case I need them to max stages.

Will it really be game-changing to use another ring with max level runes? I only use ring to recover from a prestige, for stages from 4000 to 5000 I can only use my heroes.

I feel like what I miss the most is highter level animals, but will that really be enough? I still need some 600 stages to go.

Thank you

This game needs a guide.

Seriously, The guide on this subreddit is more harmful than good.

It tells you to max out fast & cheerful for vexx then put a point in FoRgE?....

If the guide is not useful just remove it, The same error exists in the game's wiki guide (They are the same guide btw.)

Adventure

Do I need to use Sam, V, Nanna, Vexx, Jim after a specific point in the game or can I use my own team? (context: I’m roughly on 1500 and currently use Belly, Hilt, Vexx, Sam, Wendle; but I do kinda want to change Wendle to Jim soon)

Progression

I’ve been playing for 2 weeks and I’m on 1100~ I’m asking how “exactly” I can progress better because someone said I can get to 4080 in a week which is a blatantly not happening for me.

Ad removal

Hey, was wondering if there is such thing as ad removal here? Haven't seen it thus far but idk is such offer unlocked at some later stage of the game?

I really would prefer to pay to remove them rather then watch everytime dragon has an offer etc.

Is the negative?

Does this mean benefits are in the negative and I should re-roll? Anything multiplied by >0 is less than what the initial amount is. Example 100 x 0.9 is 90

Is it true that Adventure Mode can't be won?

For context, I'm currently at level 5555. While researching endgame builds I came across this comment on a Youtube video: "The stage cap is never meant to be reached. On top of that, even if you got to the stage cap you would be on 5999 10/10 and never pass to 6000." (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KhVEBiNDz1M).

Is this true? The game is designed so that one can never reach max stage in adventure mode? For me, this would be a strong reason to stop playing now.

Related question: what is the highest level folks here have reached in adventure mode?
