@Gantic, I haven't committed to getting it yet, that's the only quest I haven't finished, but I imagine the32 key ways to get it are do it on a level with a Corrupted Mana Shard (and do not speed up any waves) for the large amount of extra mana, and spend a large amount of shards upgrading traits for extra waves, which not only gives you the extra mana from monsters, but extra time to siphon mana from the Shard, and then if necessary add on the higher difficulty level to increase the waves even more.

Heck, I'm only level 45 right now and I've gotten a level 10 gem in just normal play. If I added anything onto even midrange levels I could get the wave count easily past 100, that should be PLENTY of time and mana to get a level 12.

@MPH_Complexity @Olinser Thanks for your help. I managed to unlock it on O1. I was level 56 with 213 skill points and had enough mana for walls two towers and 2 level 4 gems. Ended up short on mana after emptying both shards through normal playthrough without gem bombs or cores. Finished the shards four or five waves before the end and had to wait for enough mana, but I got it.

Got all the quests -- a little easier overall than the quests for the last GemCraft, I think. For me, the "Almost Ruined" was the toughest skill-wise, while some of the others like the level 12 gem were more of a waiting and grinding type.

Hi.

I have unlocked almost all hextiles but I'm still missing "G" hextile.
Does anybody know what should be done to open it?

Thanks.

Same problem...

@ddevil6 ... have you tried replaying another level to see if the Quest unlocked then? =)

@corn1holio1 ... this thread is for Quests only. Please look for ingame help on other topics at the Flash Games Forum threads, ok? Thank you. =)

@ddevil6 ... wait, you reset your achievements and then it unlocked for you? Hmmm... that shouldn't happen and sounds weird. I will forward this to the staff anyway, just to see if there's a problem with the Quest coding somehow. Thanx for sharing this info! =)

Any suggestions on how to beat V1? I can't build my freeze spell fast enough, and it doesn't seem like enough wimps spawn at the same time to maximize freeze effectiveness. Should I just enrage a lot of early easily kill-able waves to spam wimps?

I have completed the required steps to unlock Tome Raider and Self Defense, but neither quest will register.

Any suggestions on how to get "Ice Cube?" That's the only one I'm missing. I've got some "Maximum Freeze Charge" Talismans, but they don't yet add up to + 100%. I just keep getting Talisman pieces with pluses/adds to barrage, bolt, curse and shrine but have been unlucky with 'freeze.'

I've wasted hundreds of shadow cores. Guess I'm just not lucky.

@Altwing You're unlucky, unfortunately. You're going to have to keep going until you get enough fragments to get yourself to 300%.

And my luck just turned. As luck would have it. A day or so after I posted that, I got a random light green talisman piece (rarity 28) that gave me what I needed!

All quests complete!

Doesn't work at all.
I'm using an offline-uploaded-online save, can it be a cause???
