amps are quite expensive, use that mana for gems, walls, towers, and mana pool extension. Only use mana pool extension durring the begining or once you're towers are holding back the enemy. Don't use pool extension at near the end of waves or you're limiting possible upgrades. Keep saving and upgrading only build more if you know swarms/large groups are appearing. amps should also be used only durring either large number of waves, or when it will be of use to multiple towers. Else the effectiveness is too minor in most casses. Upgrading gems in amps effects mainly damage but gives minor boosts to range and slight bit more fire rate. placing more boosts range and fire rate along with a weaker boost to damage than upgrading gems in an amp.
On the map in zone2 there is a pirate ship next to the 1st flag leading to the 1st dungeon in zone2. is there a possibility that the ship there is actually Woodbeard's ship? This next idea i personally don't think is true. but could in be possible that the main hub resides next to Quirel's fortess in zone3? Now i know, sounds stupid. But then think about it, what's that building doing to the north of the hub next to the PvP and Gauntlet Npcs? Also during your raid in Quirel's fortress he says to you,"I am the evil that protects this castle. The shadows betray you because they serve me." once you manage to encounter him. The second sentence in the dialogue where tells you that the shadows betray you because they serve him kind of make me wonder why he states this.
does anyone else agree that the map for the zones can probably be pieced together somehow? For example zone1 being to the right of zone2, but to the left of zone7. or if placed next to each other that zone3 seems to fit in place well to the left of zone4. the mountains in the top right corner of the map and the mountains in the top left corner make believe so.
necromancer is the easiest class for me to beat this game with. you can use toxic spike on your own allies, mix that up with charm and you can leech the charmed enemies. watch out for that ice golem though. he repells particles
for anyone who wants to find out how much RP your gaining from distance & level ups hover over the blue RP tab on the bottom right. From there you can also keep an eye on the effectiveness of you RP related ascension perks (all except for Head Hunter and Elite RP not being exactly shown). For example next to distance you will see something like this: 1000+100. The number on the left is base distance RP and the number on the right is for displaying ascension related RP for that stat.The same goes for level up RP right above distance RP.
i like the fact how the different parts in the map align making a representation of where you're heading to and how it makes it feel like it's actually a maze. Kind of makes my think that the wizard had a small way to go, but a long way to improvise.
In case if you want to use hotkeys while playing...
-Numbers 1-6: are used to determine the skill you want to use
-If the skill you want to use is one where you select are target you can also use the number keys to chose a target. For example if you chose a healing ability and you want to heal the party member closest to the left, press "1". If there are 5 members and you want to heal the member closet to the right, press "5". if you have defeated party members and or enemies you want to choose the second one to the left. but the first one to the left is defeated/dead the number for the target is changed to "1" and all to the right of the member/enemy are also changed. so with that one target defeated the number used to look like this: 1,2,3,4,5. But now it looks like this (dead),1,2,3,4 and can vary like this: 1,2,(dead),3,4 and so on. Just make sure you don't target the wrong member to heal, trying to heal a member with full health will do nothing and basically skip your turn.
-For exiting/closing...
space is used to accept in tabs like the capture familiar tab. space is used to accept the attempt to capture a familiar and also to accept in event/dungeon tabs once you set up your team. The space bar is also used to enable auto pilot.
To close tab or decline something press "esc". Note that the game will tell you if you are sure about your decision after you pressed esc. to exit that tab don't press esc again instead press "space" to tell the game that you are sure about your decision.
-Arrow keys and "awsd" are used for movement
if you want to constantly be aware of your currency(gems and gold) while in dungeons, open the shop menu quickly once you encounter a battle(when the exclamation mark appears).

i'm not sure what the problem is either 2 days ago i wasn't able to login for the whole day and yesterday i was able to login. I was a little worried that the game shut down, but i'm happy to see that it hasn't. Hopefully the login issue gets fixed by the next few days.
