You can re-roll the ancients to get a different selection. You can also purchase more than four, I've found. If you made some poor choices, you can respec them. I ended up purchasing a few I probably didn't need, but since I have three that I like, I probably won't respec them.

Every time you reroll (cost increases with the amount of ancients you've unlocked, and started at 1 Hero Soul) you get a new random assortment; four of the twenty-six. Unfortunately a lot of times you'll reroll the same ones again; it's not uncommon to get 3/4 identical to the previous selection. I just wasted 1000 souls trying to get something different Apparently the devs are working on a fix for that in the next patch.

The list of Ancients is:

Siyalatas/Bonus idle DPS (25%/level up to level 10, 24% from 10-19, etc)
Libertas/Bonus idle Gold (25%/level up to level 10, 24% from 10-19, etc)
Vaagur/Reduced skill cooldown (-5%/level, cap -75%)
Atman/Increased Primal chance (1%/level, cap 25%)
Solomon/Bonus Primal Hero Souls (5%/level, diminishes starting at 100%)
Mammon /Bonus Gold dropped (5%/level)
Fragsworth/Bonus Click damage (20%/level)
Kumawakamaru/Monsters to next level (-1/level)
Bhaal/Bonus Critical damage (15%/level)
Mimzee/Bonus Gold from Treasure Chests (50%/level)
Dora/Increased Chests chance (20%/level)
Dogcog/Decreased Hero cost (-2%/level)
Fortuna/10x Gold Chance (.25%/level)
Argaiv/Increased Gilded bonus (2%/level)
Bubos/Decreased Boss Life (-2%/level)
Pluto/Bonus Gold from Golden Clicks (30%/level)
Berserker/Extended Powersurge (5s/level)
Energon/Extended Metal Detector (5s/level)
Chawedo/Extended Clickstorm (5s/level)
Sniperino/Extended Lucky Strikes (5s/level)
Hecatoncheir/Extended Super Click (5s/level)
Kleptos/Extended Golden Clicks (5s/level)
Chronos/Extended Boss Fight timers (5s/level)
Morgulis/Bonus Hero Soul DPS (11%/level)
Khrysos/Extra starting gold (1 hero's worth/level)
Thusia/Extra Treasure Chest health 100%

Thusia is worthless, as extra treasure chest health doesn't equal more gold. The extended length of ability ones seem to be of less value too. Idle ones are obviously amazing if you idle a lot, but have less use for an active player (idle status happens after 60 seconds of not clicking the screen, and it does work if you close the page).

Yeah, idle sound glorious.

I can't imagine they'd respawn. Otherwise people would just park themselves and AFK at 110 forever.

First time you fight the boss; no respawns until the next ascension. If you "lose" (take longer than 30 seconds) they'll still be Primal when you go back. And every 100 levels is a guaranteed Hero Soul dropper called a Centurion.

Just did an ascension (after failing miserably at level 170, with cooldowns ) and the bug which gives an extra Hero Soul each ascension is not fixed (yet).

I finally used one of my three free respecs. What I did was wait til I was at 140, respec, and then use the giant boost to push myself to 145. After I lost all my DPS I had to drop back down to 134 for more farming, though.

This time I was very careful to only obtain Siyalatas and Liba. 95% of my time "playing" that game is idle, so they really make sense for me. I'll probably just keep ascending over and over again until I get bored, then respec for all the DPS boosts until I hit level 160 and call it done.

Doh! I try to save at least once a day

I got bored with the game, to be honest. Cookie Clicker held my attention for longer, and with a top level of ~330, I kind of just stopped caring.

Looks like you should be getting Fragsworth and one of the new ancients, Juggernaught i think. Dora too.

Just a note that the "idle" DPS/money bonus kicks in even if you're actively leveling heroes. It's only cancelled if you click for damage or use cooldowns.

By carefully timing my purchases on the latest reroll, I was able to get from level 1-110 without using ANY cooldowns, thanks to level 8 on Siya and Libertas, and level 12 on Dogcog, with 43 hero souls in the bank. This is my 2nd ascension today. Play time on the one earlier was only four hours. Play time on current one is 32 minutes.

Those idle boosts are insane.

Another small patch has arrived and brings us two new Ancients plus changes to an existing one.

Nothing I'm too excited about but it's nice to see the game constantly evolving.
