Topic: GemCraft Labyrinth / "Remind me of the Babe" Badge

You should get the badge by defeating G7. If you have already done so, beat any map again. If you still don’t get the badge, try reporting the missing badge?

Topic: General Gaming / Kingdom Rush - Best TD Game EVER

I don’t understand why this game is so hyped. What makes it soooooo much better than the likes of Bloons, Gemcraft, and Cursed Treasure?

How do I fortify buildings? I have town hall level 5, which supposedly means I can fortify buildings, but I can’t find the option anywhere.

Topic: GemCraft Labyrinth / Why are people anoyed over premium?

I’m pretty sure grinding endurance over and over doesn’t give infinite exp. You still have to beat your old score.

The original city is still there; I believe you can even keep using the people that you sent. Unless you saved over it.

Ragnarok summons like 15 dragons, which give a ton of exp for killing them, especially at a low level. You also have to survive it to get one of the medals. You’ll need either huge amounts of power, or liberal use of explosives (grenades, sisters, explosive big guns) to kill them all before they kill you. A holy grail can buy you quite a bit of time to kill them if you’re not overpowered yet.

Nice to see that people are still playing this game. :) I might write a long, detailed guide sometime later, when I’m not as busy.

Topic: GemCraft Labyrinth / 840 lvl Gem

It’s not possible to increase your mana pool any further than about 10^20, due to limits on precision preventing any further increase. And of course, long before that problem is even encountered, even the most powerful computers will probably have crashed.

Topic: General Gaming / The Rebuild 2 Thread

This feels much easier than the previous one. Impossible on Rebuild 2 actually felt like normal on Rebuild 1, in terms of the risks I had to take. I’m not sure how much of it is due to the five über people you’re allowed to take from another game though. Maybe I should try to beat impossible without them?

Topic: GemCraft Labyrinth / How to lvl up fast

If you have premium, you should be able to take on some pretty tough settings from the very beginning. If you don’t, however, I believe the pylon trick is the only way to get large amounts of exp quickly.

Topic: General Gaming / Bloons Tower Defense 1-4 tips/strategies

I haven’t played this game in a while, so I can only give general tips.

Banana farms are the key to winning. Invest in the bare minimum needed to survive early levels, even if you have to use spikes. Aim for a banana farm at the end of round 10 and upgrade it twice by the end of round 16. Keep building and upgrading banana farms, and you will soon have an income of several thousand per round.

Good towers to use are:

Bomb tower → MOAB mauler. Place them near the beginning to break up MOABs and BFBs.
Tack shooter → Ring of fire. Place them after MOAB maulers. A couple of these tear apart just about anything.
Monkey apprentice → Tempest tornado. Place them near the end to blow bloons back to the beginning.
Monkey beacon. Buff your other towers.

Topic: GemCraft Labyrinth / Just got premium...

Indeed. The Shadow has 420k HP and comes at wave 20. By then, I’m easily summoning waves of something like 300 monsters at 1M HP. I was disappointed when I faced it the second time; it died a split second after I clicked on it.

You unlock partying by buying at least 1 level of the villa.
There is no AP option related to sisters, but you can buy them in the upgrades tab.

Topic: GemCraft Labyrinth / Summoning

Use Shift+B to enter gem-bombing mode, and then hold Shift and click to rapidly drop gem bombs. Just make sure you don’t accidentally gem bomb a gem that you need.

Yes, lower level gems summon more monsters for the same cost, but multiple lower level gems raise the HP and armor of the monsters by a lot more than a single high level gem.

Since when were video walkthroughs and text walkthroughs mutually exclusive?

Topic: GemCraft Labyrinth / Ultra Mana Pool At Low Wave + Low Lvl!

Umm… yeah. 3.85x from battle amulets, 75.76x from battle settings, and 138.42x from endurance. That’s the max multiplier you can get on any field. (A little bit higher if there’s tombs/nests)

Topic: GemCraft Labyrinth / Mana Pool on Endurance

Yes, with higher focus, your mana multiplier increases slower than with lower focus. The thing is, mana multiplier has no inherent value. It’s not tied to score like in GC1 or GC0. On the other hand, the higher initial mana from high focus gives you a far, FAR stronger start than with low focus.

Topic: GemCraft Labyrinth / Ultra Mana Pool At Low Wave + Low Lvl!

If the max exp on each field weren’t capped, all the vets would be doing insane stuff like this…

Topic: GemCraft Labyrinth / Ultra Mana Pool At Low Wave + Low Lvl!

The game becomes extremely laggy if your lime component in a trap is too high. I generally stop adding lime component to gems in traps once it reaches about 100 targets.
