Clicker Heroes Optimal Soul Calculator
Detailed Optimization Steps
Clicker Heroes Calculator Formula
The calculation uses a community-derived approximation for optimal bank size relative to Siyalatas and Argaiv levels (S and A).
T = ((S + A) / 2) × 1.1 + 10 (Target Level)
Bopt = T2 × 0.8 (Optimal Bank Size)
Delta = Bopt - Bcurrent (HS to Spend/Save)

Variables
- Current Siyalatas Level (S): The current level of the Ancient Siyalatas (Idle DPS multiplier).
- Current Argaiv Level (A): The current level of the Ancient Argaiv (Gilded Hero DPS multiplier).
- Current Hero Soul Bank (B): The number of Hero Souls currently unspent (used for the total DPS multiplier).
What is Clicker Heroes Calculator?
A Clicker Heroes Calculator is a vital tool used by players to optimize their progression, primarily by balancing the levels of their Ancients (special heroes that grant permanent bonuses) and the size of their Hero Soul (HS) bank. Since the power curve in Clicker Heroes is exponential, even small inefficiencies can lead to significantly longer runs and slower overall transcension (reset) speeds.
The most common and critical calculation is the Siyalatas/Argaiv optimization, as these Ancients provide the core damage for idle play. Keeping them balanced relative to each other and to the size of your banked Hero Souls is key to pushing deep into the game’s zones and preparing for the next Transcendence.
By using an optimal soul calculator, players can quickly determine if they should be spending their newly acquired Hero Souls to level up Ancients, or if they should bank them to increase the raw damage multiplier from unspent souls, thus guaranteeing faster and more efficient progress.
How to Calculate Clicker Heroes Calculator (Example)
Follow these steps to determine your optimal Hero Soul bank size:
- Identify Current Levels: Note your current Siyalatas (S=50k), Argaiv (A=50k), and Hero Soul Bank (B=20M).
- Calculate Target Level (T): Find the geometric average of S and A, adjust, and add a constant. $T = ((50,000 + 50,000) / 2) \times 1.1 + 10 = 55,010$.
- Determine Optimal Bank (Bopt): Use the target level to estimate the ideal bank size. $B_{opt} = 55,010^2 \times 0.8 \approx 2,420,880,080$.
- Find the Delta: Compare the Optimal Bank to your Current Bank. Delta $D = 2,420,880,080 – 20,000,000 = 2,400,880,080$. This positive difference indicates how many more souls you should bank (or how far behind your ancients are) for optimal efficiency.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Why is my Optimal Bank so much higher than my current bank?
This often means your Siyalatas and Argaiv Ancients are currently overleveled relative to your unspent Hero Souls. You should spend less on Ancients and farm more Hero Souls to bank them until the ratio is balanced.
Should I level Siyalatas and Argaiv equally?
Yes, generally, for an idle build, Siyalatas and Argaiv should always be kept at or very near the same level. Our formula assumes and encourages this balance.
What happens if the Delta is negative?
A negative Delta (Hero Souls to Spend) means your current bank is larger than the optimal bank. You should spend those excess souls to level up your Ancients, particularly Siyalatas and Argaiv, until the Delta approaches zero.
Does this calculator work for active (clicking) builds?
No, this specific calculator focuses on the Idle (Siyalatas/Argaiv) optimization path. Active builds require different Ancients (like Bhaal and Fragsworth) and different formulas.
