Gemcraft chatper0 (GOE) generic hints and strategies:
1. replay levels for a better score, and a win count increase.
2. Focus on these skills when you get them: focus(starting mana), at least one building skill, orange mastery, lime or red mastery, forge, dual mastery, firing speed. Readiness is ok if you're just starting out.
3. In general, don't level up a skill all the way untill you have lots of points; the last level costs 6 points, the first level costs only 5.
4. anger early waves with one or two gem bombs for extra mana; do NOT anger swarm waves unless you have a strong mana farm.
5. From levels 1 to about halfway between the first and second gaurdian, set up only a few orange traps on normal mode; set up more for the arcane battles and endurance mode.

hello you seem to know a lot about gemcraft labyrinth. I have a few questions to ask you if you have the time to help i would greatly appreciate it. I noticed on the message boards that players are reaching levels of over 100. I cannot fathom how that is accomplished. I read in a few boards things about mana farming, angering, and other tactics. I don't understand these concepts well enough to implement them in my game. I am currently level 48 and have trouble with basic game strategy such as when and where to place traps, towers, amplifiers and the other constructions. I also don't understand the various uses for the variety of duel gem crafting, such as what duel gems are good for what and when and where to place them, I also do not understand how players are able to make such high grade gems without losing the level. I usually unlock bloodbound gem and place a tower near the orb then through out the level i simply add a few towers and upgrade the levels of the blood bound gem slowly. i end up with mana issues as i do not understand the extend manapool option or how to create a mana farming techneaque, i read about making traps and when to take a gem out of a tower and place it into a trap and it just confuses me. I am 22 year old senior at the university of northern illinois with a philosophy major and this game seems to be so well understood by a lot of people yet i am having great difficulty in understanding the best strategies and how to implement them. Any help in explaining the game to me would be very appreciated, i understand i have a broad array of issues that might take time to explain but any help is going to make me a better player. Thanks for taking the time to read my message and i hope you have a great day =)

the sad thing is, it's true. besides, if you have a gem, i'm gonna try using chakra on it next.
