    Hello everybody,

    As requested in the comments I will try to go further in details on what to expect for the grind of this achievement, And how you could progress in order to achieve it (without spending money and a lot of your time), but please note that this will be a suggestion based on my game style on this kind of clicker games, You can go trough as you prefer. (using offline methods, etc),

    -- First: The Heroes --

    All* the heroes below are named according to the English language of the game, however they are listed in the same order:

    (These are the original prices for hiring without any boost in-game, for level up, you can calculate the last price x 1.07 approx. each time)

    Once you had enough Gold to purchase one hero the next one will be "revealed" in your list.

    -- Second: Warnings about ascending --
    You might want to consider to wait of making your ascension if you are close to get any of these achievements:

    Clicker HeroesFarmer BoyThe Farmer Boy achievement in Clicker Heroes worth 234 pointsLevel up heroes 25000 times

    Clicker HeroesEpic HeroThe Epic Hero achievement in Clicker Heroes worth 283 pointsDefeat all centennial bosses


    They will ultimately reset your progress when you do a hard ascending (the fast ascending is when you use your 50 rubies to avoid reseting your current progress).

    If you find yourself still far away from that point you can chose to do a hard ascension if you don't have enough rubies (that you could have if you harvest in the game for a few hours).


    -- Third: The way to clear the first 150 levels --

    This part will be used as a small walktrough for the people doing the first run, in general it can be used to harvest hero souls, but we will discuss that later.

    If you spend more than a week to reach this point, your are not progressing your heroes as fast as you can (note, that you need to wait hours to make money anyways, so make sure you are using the hours you sleep in your advantage, [remember to close the game! and not just in standby]).

    In this point the Dread Knight will still be out of our way for at least 2 o 3 months of collecting gold, so it's time for ascension setup.

    First, level up all your heroes to lvl 200., from that use the x25 lvl up, from that onwards your heroes get a 4x DPS each time they hit a 25-multiple of levels, so expend your money until they are too expensive to keep going (your goal is to reach lvl. 150-170 and around 1600 accumulated level increases before your first hard ascension).

    If you read the second part from this guide you might be aware if is your first run, that you are to far away of achieving them, but if you are more advanced in progress, you might want to wait a bit longer before resetting, but that's your call.


    -- Fourth: The Perks of ascending --

    If you have meet this part in your first run with at least 1600 levels, you should be around +8... +15 after ascending. Take note that this is really important, if you don't have a good number of heroes souls to ascend, is a waste of time. In my opinion.

    By this time you might have collected at least 50 rubies, if you haven't used them.
    Please note there are some options in the in-game store:

    1- 3 random mutated heroes, 30 rubies
    2- +# Heroes Souls + 1 Fast ascension, 50 rubies
    3- 3 relics, 40 rubies
    4- +$$$$ Gold + skill refresh, 20 rubies
    5- Double DPS forever, 50 rubies

    4 is garbage and you should not expend money or rubies doing that, at least for now.

    1 and 3 are mostly not required cause you will eventually getting as you level up in game.

    5 and 2 is our target, as you progress in game the number of heroes souls you can claim will be growing, I can't tell exactly what makes it grow, but it does.

    If you have the rubies, purchase it and ascend.

    New options will be revealed, the bonus +10% DPS per soul will be applied to your total amount, and the ancestors will show up in your menu (probably relics as well).

    The ancestor #1 we need is Dogcog, if is not in the options available, refresh (using some souls). the reason of that, is we we want it to be cheap, 1 hero soul for lvl. 1, is going to be cheaper to level him up, instead if we purchase him with a base price higher.

    After that we need to rinse and repeat the progress to collect souls, collect rubies, purchase fast ascension, expend the souls on leveling Dogcog.

    Use your hard ascension when you are not able to do fast ascension in a short time frame or if you are not able to go forward on the levels. repeating this process at least 4-5 times with hard ascensions should bring you to level 200-250 and some weeks closer to Dread Knight.

    Further steps or suggestions on other ancestors will be added as they are provided.

    The guide by reforc3 is a much more detailed guide including strategy tips, but I thought I would make a concise guide with just the basics for those that want it.

    There was an update since the game's launch that added more heroes- these are not required for the achievement, only the original 35. You must have at least 1 of each hero in the same ascension (I often skip the lower level heroes and was wondering why it didn't pop when I bought Astrea then I bought one of each of the lower ones and it popped). Mine unlocked around level 2100, but I had the ancient, Dogcog pretty high level so my guess is you should be able to get it by 2300 by the latest.

    The heroes needed (listed in order of availability) are:
    1. Cid, the helpful adventurer
    2. Treebeast
    3. Ivan, the drunken brawler
    4. Brittany, beach princess
    5. The wondering fisherman
    6 Betty Clicker
    7 The masked samurai
    8. Leon
    9. The great forest seer
    10. Alexa, assassin
    11. Natalie, ice apprentice
    12. Mercedes, success of blades
    13. Bobby, bounty hunter
    14. Broyle lindeoven, fire mage
    15. Ser George II, king's guard
    16. King Midas
    17. Referi jerator, ice wizard
    18. Abaddon
    19. Ma zhu
    20. Amenhotep
    21. Beastlord
    22. Athena, goddess of war
    23. Aphrodite, goddess of love
    24. Shinatobe, wind diety
    25. Grant, the general
    26. Frostleaf
    27. Dreadknight
    28. Atlas
    29. Terra
    30. Phthalo
    31. Orntchya gladeye, didensy banana
    32. Lillin
    33. Cadmia
    34. Alabaster
    35. Astrea

    Kol MagiusThank you. This achievement is best served with the list of heroes needed and a few tips, people should look at Zone Conqueror or the walkthrough for details on making progress. The game changes too frequently to have a detailed progress guide in too many places. I appreciate the effort that went into the other solution for this achievement, but seriously people trying to reach Astraea should be wary of strategy from someone who is “working on Shinatobe”.
