You can easily get the hard badge/brilliant ratings by only investing skill points in Undead and Demons. Rate up to save others time on the grind.

I didn't have much trouble in this game. I'm not sure what did it, but here's my approach: I completed each level once, no matter the rating. Then started over after level 15 etc. For bosses I usually saved mana up for a meteor shower. I always bought temples and/or huts at the edge of map (to trigger stealth asap), and had lots of crypts and huts near the gems, to kill ninjas coming out of stealth. I started with orc skills, focusing on getting cut out study and mastery, then bounty. Then I went demons to go for the return portal to at least get excellent on all. By the time I got all excellent I had also invested in undead mana. I never really used frenzy. The only grind was the last level, and it was only a handful of repeats. Wave 40 was just 5 meteor showers. Good luck.

How about if the excellent and brilliant ratings granted experience multipliers? Say 2x for excellent, and 3x for brilliant? Course even 1.5x and 2x would be nice too.

Also trying for Brilliant on lvl. 15,-grinded on earlier levels and maxed all upgrades.Testing each tower type and upgrade path as the first responder on the high ground to the ninja threat!

This level pack was just what I needed for this boring work day. Working on brilliant for lvl15. Yes, ninjas are tough but hardly pose much difficulty if you keep an eye on the next waves and max out your meteor mastery as well as invensting in some defense on the back end of the map more towards the gems.(try boosting those towers in the first 5-7 waves before building up front)

Do you really want to quit? YEA!,especially after trying to get the brilliant rating on level 13 with those damned ninjas, that manage to get to the first gem with time to spare! GRRR...ARGH!...KHAN!!!...WAAA!!!

Just knowing that a ninja will get to and move a jem real early on level 6 is extremely disheartening...going back down the path to grind, I guess...

Ninjas suck! They waste your resources!Waaa!!! The dev. could add more levels...or an editor to allow us to make some levels and challenge each other! Hey master937(as in the 937th...) just replay your lower levels successfully in order to max your skills!(it's called grinding.) :)
