I haven't purchased any; how do I see new selections? Do I have to ascend?
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).
