I am also puzzled with the spirit shards. With the spirit shard buff, I got something like 80 at once from autofiring a lvl 32 (+6) yeti that was stucked behind an ice wall, then I got 6 also with the buff from shooting 3 lvl 35 (+9) gumpaloafs that were really a pain (I had to use something like 10 potions)
Excellent game, the first Really-Better-Than-MotherLoad game that I have played so far. Just some ideas to make the game even better :
- Unbreakable boulders could fall if you dig below them, thus blocking your way back if you are not careful, you would then have to find another way back home.
- The best ressources (titanium or something new) should be really difficult to get, for example it could be only present at depth where you suffer temperature damages.
- You could add some undergroung water sources. Digging in to them would cause the water to spill temporarily in the nearby blocks. I just do not now if the robot can swim or if he will simply rust
When you reach level 30+, switch all your gladiators to murmillo + max shield bash, max defense boost and max counterattack, defense 60+ and watch your opponents kill themselves while you continously block / shield bash . The only danger is with the throwers that have to be your primary target.
To get a level 30 gladiator, you have to win 500 fights and to buy him at the slave market. You can also buy a level 1 gladiator for nearly free and level him up to 30 in something like 200 fights.
At first, the game looks really great. Soon after you discover that each time you click somewhere, you have to pay with real money. I just hope that posting this comment won't be too expensive.
For the last level, the best is to have all 4 storms + wealth + eternal rage. Don't care about your weapon, just maximize your damage + regen. During the fight, use only your spells.
