I reset after completing 975 areas, with 23 crusaders at level 6000 for 138000 total levels.

My Efficient Crusading talent is at Level 25 (Max), so 138000/250 = 552 idols...

My Deep Idol Scavenger talent is at Level 25 (Max)... so to "increase idols earned by 50% for every 100 areas unlocked when resetting" - how is this expressed mathematically, and what is the result?

Plus 'Empowered Crusading' (chest purchase bonus)... "Increase idols earned from Resets by 50%"

How many idols should that yield? Thanks :)

Stop at the 3240 in Raymond's post. The extra multiple of 1.5 after that is not a thing.

Deep Idol Scavenger's bonus is stated per 100 areas but it's actually awarding 1/100 of that per each individual area. So at max level, with a stated 50% per 100 areas, that's actually adding 0.5% to a bonus per each area completed. 974 areas completed (to roll with Raymond's assumption) gives a bonus of 487%. Or if it's 975 areas completed it would give a bonus of 487.5%. That 487.5% figure effectively means that instead of earning 1 idol per 250 crusader levels you are now earning 5.875 idols per 250 crusader levels. In other words, take the 552 result that you got from Efficient Crusading and then multiply by 5.875 to get the "final" result of 3243 idols. (Although as Raymond noted you could also use the mobile version for your reset to get an extra bonus on top of that. This result would be about 4054 idols.)

By the way, my last completed run ended somewhere in the 990s (I think, I forget) and with the mobile bonus the final tally was 4146 idols. So that was 3316.8 idols before the mobile bonus, which is 6.0087 times larger than 552, which means that the DIS bonus was 500.87. So hey, I guess that run ended at about 1001 or 1002. (I upgraded some more epics to legendaries and then refreshed my DPS and gold ad bonuses before resetting, so I must have cleared another 10 areas during the ads.)

Edit: Whoops, the Empowered Crusading thing for one of the excessive chest purchase options. Yeah, throw in the extra 1.5 multiplier to figure that into it as well. I wasn't thinking of that. (But that's just me. I'm fine with $5 for the cheapest pack of chests plus a golden item but I can't justify spending more than that.)

the mouseover is obviously wrong, now you know how to calculate things, and what you actually got is what you should have gotten.

press 'p' in game and see play history for lots of info, including reset info.

there are other android emulators besides bluestacks, someone else in chat all the time stands by Memu.

Bluestacks and Memu both didn't seem to cooperate well on my system for some reason (Bluestacks was insanely slow to get any tiny little task done, Memu ran great but when I tried to run Crusaders it claimed that the game wasn't compatible with my device), but the emulator I ended up finding that works for me is Nox App Player (runs smoothly and didn't have any issues launching the game).
