Tip: If you're having frustratingly poor luck getting enough blues to beat the first boss, save up your gems and empty out the first gatchapon machine all at once.

So I see a lot of people frustrated and hitting walls with this game. I will try and help out. Get Manticore give it Vampirism. This is now your first slot and second slot is frog. First boss dead
How I beat the second boss.
1st Dreadnaught (24) - psychic shield (4) / steely (9) / vampire (9)
2nd Elder (28) - Optimized heal (3) / darkness (9)
3rd Elder (36) - arcane knowledge (7) / Healing aura (8) / Killing streak (9)
4th Elf (56) - Tribalism (3)
5th Elf (56) - Tribalism (3)
Having piercing (magic) on either of the elders or both would be better but I didn't get it so I couldn't. The abilities are what seems to trip everyone up because they are so rare, so diverse and so under explained. Abilities stack and feed into each other, even with relatively low level monsters you can do insane DPS and have more heals than you know what to do with.

Be careful not to "Unlearn" any skills! It apparently doesn't open the skill slot again - it just stays grayed out forever. No idea what the mindset was for this, but once I get the badge, I can't wait to leave...

I think this is the first badge so far that I've felt like I might give up on >.> this game is too slow, I'm starting to feel like I will NEED to pay to get the badge, but that ain't happening.

The code GOBACK2 doesnt work, so dont go to the third dimension without triple fused 3.8 Masters !!!!! its a game ender.

So basically get one creature with "leader heal" skill, give that skill to a mage (unit with high int) = profit! Also I got my leader "self heal" skill as a bonus. Don't be afraid to spend gems to forget unnecessary skills and don't bother with gachapons - they're not worth it.

You know what? I find awful to get so mad at this medium badge, consume hours and hours to try and get it, endure frustration and boredom - and for what, in th end? What's the point of it all? What kind of extravagantly pleasant reward do I expect? For I know that, in the end, the tiny shoot of dopamine that I'm craving for will be but a flicker in my addicted brain. Guys, we got to do something about that. We're bored slaves of an unpleasant pleasure machine. I've got to do something! And I'll sure do it as sson as i'll get this damned badge.

Never mind, I just did it by spending all my gems on potions in the store and using them like crazy during the battle. Now, I can finally leave this horrible excuse of a game for good.

Any advice on level 56? I made it so far relatively easy, although it took me very, very long, and was very, very boring... But now, I can't even scratch that cyclops thing unfortunately...

THIS IS NOT AN IDLE GAME.
Finally completed the medium badge.
Had to stack up Healing aura, Healing and improved healing for an all beasts tribe lvl 40 team, then required popping all potions on lvl 56 cyclop boss.
Boring and stingy game. Requires gems to reroll abilities, drops, everything. The huge pool of monsters and abilities makes nearly impossible to upgrade your team due to RNG.
Not idle. Just some kind of mobage crap.

Bad developer insulting users for ANY criticism. Kong please ban this developer! Everyone should start mass-reporting purple_pwny

What a loss of time. Really tried to like the game, but it's not designed to be liked, only to make you pay. The game infrastructure is there, but then it's made to be so slow and frustrating that you have to consider paying to make any interesting progess. Got to level 140 or so.

For everyone trying to get the medium badge, do not upgrade your barrack to level 3 because it will spawn legendary monster into the frontier which makes it harder for your team to kill.

Use that medium badge to question your life choices. This took me weeks to get, and what for. Hint for the last 5 or 6 levels to 56: keep a healer, also if common, in your party.

@LinkaBR I just leveled piercing to +85% on my guy and I'm still getting one hit when I proc deflect/weasel. I dunno how long it's gonna take to get two legendaries for +90% :\

Finally got the medium badge. It's awesome when RNG decides everything and you can't get anything better than a common quality healer in spite of 200 captured monsters. Needs a way to favor the capture of specific learnable traits, in addition to needing to be fun or interesting in any way. Glad to never click this abomination again.

Glass cannon is really nonviable against any mob who has deflect. If it gets triggered, the deflect, despite damage returned being capped to 60% of the receiver's health gets amplified by the increased damage taken from glass cannon meaning my glass cannon member always dies whenever he's unlucky enough to trigger deflect. I'll be lucky to even get to the demon area with it on, sometimes he even dies in the first zone. Any plans of changing this?

For those people reading comments, Id like to post one that IS positive. The medium badge is 100% doable in 1 day if you work at it. I do agree that they should take "Idle" out of the name for this game, because it really isnt an idle game. Its more of a sidescroller rpg with limited but not useless offline farming progress. If anyone is looking to get the badge, or possibly stick around longer i strongly suggest asking questions in chat. Though i warn you that just complaining about how "bad" the game is will likely get you ignored quickly.

The upgrade costs need to be decreased or gold drops needs to be increased, it's insane trying to buy 500k+ upgrades when even the loot bags are dropping <500 gold. No way to automatically restart after dying. Starting from wave 1 is a huge waste of time. Checkpoints should heal and allow you to spawn there FOR FREE. No way to have game idle in background (need to have tab open) so combined with no auto-restarting makes it more efficient to earn gold by not playing. The fact that after close to a year and 540k plays only 2500 people (0.005% of plays) have made it to wave 56 should say a lot.

get some dia from daily quests then just keep buying potions with them and starting from latest. once you finish the quest, don't go back.

One of the few games I've rated 1 star. I actually like idle games (even though I'm frustrated that Kongregate seems to prioritize their badges) but this is just blatantly something that could be good but takes WAY too much effort for an idle game... Why even bother having a daily that requires getting a creature to 30 when it takes so long to get even a common there? It shouldn't take DAYS of idling and relogging in to get enough gold.

Happy 2020. Sad to see that over the years, this is the kind of game that gets achievements. Its not an accomplishment to have to play for over a week to advance so little. That is called a "Participation award".
Fun to start, after an hour... No. Good effort guys, but NO.

I'm another person who FINALLY got the badge - too slow to feel any significant progress so I am outta here forever. Nice idea for a game - not great execution :(

Got easy badge Dec 13. Just got medium on the 31st. Logging in multiple times throughout the day every day. Completely ridiculous. The description on the badge is also very misleading.

My local and cloud servers don't update. I had a great time seeing new and interesting monsters that I could never keep, but I'm not playing an Idle game that I can't manually save.
