For the swarm waves, just max your Poison Mastery skill and only use traps with poison gems in them. Make sure you space them out so that if the traps miss any of the monsters, you have a couple backup traps closer to your tower. You shouldn't need more than 3 or 4 traps for most levels.

It would be interesting if we could set targeting styles, or if different gems targeted differently, such as splash gems targeting the thickest groups, slow gems targeting fastest monsters, armor piercing targeting monsters with highest armor values, and critical hit targeting monsters with the most remaining hitpoints.

@thelolofdeath nice try, apparently you don't play GC0 at all. In arcane boss levels, monsters(apart from the minions) only come out of the nest. Also, if you didn't noticed, I had permashocked all of those for Eternity, hence the name of the game.

Love that moment when the combination of lime gems in towers and green gems in traps results in the beat of Hey Mickey! *clap-clap, clap*

1. A real wizard would never leave the spawn closest to their wizard tower less protected than the ones further away.
2. If you WERE pro,those monsters would die the second they spawn.

The game would be better if the online save game would keep data. Having to start over every time you leave the page and come back only deserves one star no matter how good it is otherwise.

The sound when you turn the page instantly reminded me of Disciples II, I could bet they're the same sound. Wonder if I'm wrong.

Ryan there's a MUCH easier way- Master the supermanatrap start. Then, like me, you can beat Map 78(gem bomb not wave 228 big big difference) by wave 10. PROVEN....I have a video if you'd like to see how.

78th Map strategy: Place 6 towers in various chokepoints scattered throughout the area. As you gain Mana and your first Tier 6 gem, place that in one of the towers for extra firepower to accrue more mana. Keep gaining tier 6 gems and place them in the other towers. Once you get 4 Tier 7 Gems, return game speed to 1x (Assuming you are playing at higher speed using the Fast Forward) and combine the 6 Tier Gems deployed on the map into Tier 7 Gems.

LOL....I used the skills of a level 36(175 skill points) and maxed out farm on map 78 by wave 45...I officially broke the game, as now I can build enough firepower to beat wave 228 at LEVEL 36!

I remember when I first saw this game I thought, "Why would I ever play that?" It has now become my all-time favorite flash game. I would buy the thing for my computer if they made it available.

Who Cares! BRING IT! Even without 54 I WILL SCORE ONE HUNDRED TRILLION. If you can believe it will happen. I believe, therefore it will happen. Yaaaaay!

The N key shortcut is the worst thing in the universe, the most evil thing in the universe. Now my 100T run will be at most 50 because I failed to anger the best wave, 54...sadface...fu(king N key. I had 16 G16s waiting...fuuu.

Oh, & to my stalker-haters who keep D-voting my comments, here's a bit to rub it in to your jealousy: - http://i.imgur.com/JPbJUqZ.png - Yes, those are G16s on the right tower column. Yes, all the other tower gems bar the pure O & R are G13s. Yes, all those traps are maxed. Yes, that really is 32 billion score at wave 35. And yes, that is a prismatic that was formed(well 80% of it) in TWO WAVES. Beat it, sucker haters!

NEW BADGE IDEAS: Beat all 228 waves- Extremely Impossible, 120 points. Get 1 trillion points- Extremely Impossible, 120 points. Beat all 512 waves of Beyond Corruption- Insanely Hard Endurance Impossible, 500000000 points(No really it does need that many points. To beat 512 which has an estimate of 48 billion hp/monster, you need to beat 510, 508, 506, 504, etc etc. Super long endurance!)

BaronOfHate: If you only want/need/dying for the badge, get to wizard level 50-60, max red-orange masteries, and always use this strategy no matter what: Keep the G2 O & R for transmuting if needed, turn G3s into a G4 dual. Supergem the G4 with G1 O & R you get from transmuting. It will kill everything up to map 78 with ease. Map 78 will also fall to it, unless you're trying the 228 wave challenge, in which you need a LOT more, but if you only want the badge, ignore the 228 wave stuff. If you want to play because you like it, by all means continue as is, learn to make a mana farm quickly & relish smashing monsters with up to 300K damage gems.

PS: Guess 7 people hate gemcraftCh0. Haters gonna hate. S-long as they don't hack the game code to make it unplayable, I'm fine. Wave 36.3, 32 billion score, 4x G16 gem for angering 42, max farm, 220K damage, and a hell lot of awesomeness, hell yeah! As always I am a speedhack & macro virgin^_^
