A question: Chain hit does chain only the damage or also the effects, i konw that spash doesn't splachs the effects, but chain hit does chains the effects? (poison, mana leech, etc...)

actualy you dont gimp yourself by playing on kong. armor perk is kind of useless until you max out everything else. because instead of putting points into armor, you could put them somewhere to prevent a base hit in a first place.
most important perks are mana/kill and starter gems.
they will make you realy strong. everything else is just for a little more comfort.
you have to figure out how mana production works. because its most probable that you made the game unplayable by doing this part wrong.
a little tip: read monster, spell and gem descriptions in this regard.

Once you get level 40 the rest of the game is a piece of cake.. just respec into starting high level gems and mana on kill and yawn your way through 30 more levels and a couple easy "hard" badges. 5/5 for pre level 40 gameplay though.

It is douchey to not make it clear straight away that I should just go over to ArmorGames if I don't want to gimp myself after a bunch of gameplay.

ChilliConCarnage, the mastery skills basically just increase the damage dealt by the respective gem. I want to know what the gem/monster hue means.

Ripped off. For the last stage, the only purple gem I got was the level 5 that I started with. How am I supposed to defeat armour of the gods with that?

love the game, and have played several of its successors, but man, its hard to get a glowing frame, currently around lvl 15 mage. have come to within 10,000 pts of a glowing.

It's really satisfying to continously upgrade my gems, and it's an interesting decision on whether I should spend large amounts of mana to get a high-tier gem, or gamble, and see if I get enough of one type of low-tier gem to eventually combine into a high-tier one. I also love how many different gems there are, how each color has it's own special effect, and how these effects can be combined to create a multi-purpose (although slightly weaker in both effects) gem.

Most of this games difficulty comes from RNG, I should've been able to beat a lot of levels much faster if you could simply pick what colour gems you create.

Awesome game with a surprising amount of depth. Recently heard about the series from the Creeper World community and I'll see how far I get playing through each one in order. Enjoying it so far!

Be aggressive at the start araashi. Jack up your max mana to at least 8k so you are getting lots back for your kills. Maybe save 5k mana so you get 2 passes at the boss. Don't forget you can sling all your big gems at him as gem bombs.

@AstroCrafter The second game in the series is Gemcraft 0, but story-wise, it would be Gemcraft: Chasing Shadows.
TL;DR version: Gemcraft 0
