Is field H3 missing?


H3 is a wizard tower map. You might need to beat something to unlock it.

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.

@kegaumongo

I didn't see your question at the bottom of the post.

@Erile: I can see "Fire in the hole" on your profile now. I don't know why could cause this, to be honest. Is anybody else having this issue?


It was not a problem with quests on your profile, it was a problem with quests not showing up on the game page after you complete them and then reload the page. Given the high number of people who reported completing quests and not seeing their credit for quest completion, and given that I had a similar problem but then noticed it was restricted only to the game page and not the profile page, I assumed other people were probably having similar issues.

So its not necessarily a quest completion problem in this case, its a bug in whether or not the quests on the game page decide to display as completed vs quests on your profile page. So someone who thinks they completed something and doesn't see it would have to reload and check their profile page independently of the game page. Probably something noone would ever bother to do.

Meh..this game is fun but it's just the demo version. Don't even play it if you don't want to spend money. Certain maps are not even unlockable if you don't buy it.

Does anybody know anything about the in-game achievement of "Gray Trees", it's right at the bottom of the achievement screen/list and the description of it is "11331791"?

I just tried to complete the "Too Curious" (breaking open a tomb) badge ... and got it on my first try. (Level 55) I did this on map B5, which is favorite of mine since it has so much room to build. I built a basic spiral where I could change the entry point with a bomb, and kept the tomb monsters running around a huge outside perimeter several times -- limited only by the number of allowed demolitions. I was kind of surprised it worked ... it was just a trial run to see how difficult it would be. One of the easier Hard achievements, I think.

Chris -- It's hard to remember the beginnings of the game, but in general I didn't have any problems leveling up as a wizard or in passing the first few maps. Since I'm not a super-gamer, I have to think this "easy beginning" should be true for most people, too.

So, what specific problem are you having? Are you just not able to beat the second map? If so, a possible simple but unpleasant solution would be to replay the first map over several times, trying to increase your score as much as possible each time. I'll try to check out the first few maps later today to see if there's any specific map advice that might be helpful.

So where did non-premium users unlock a grade 12 gem? I can't seem to find anywhere where I might get enough mana. I have most of the things unlocked except for a couple tomes and wizard towers.

@Gantic I cheesed it on O1 to get a grade 12 gem, if you play it perfectly you should have enough right at the end to get a grade 12 gem. The more starting mana you have, the easier it will be, I BARELY had enough at wizard level 45 to get the grade 12.

- Start out by walling so the enemies go through the loop on the right side of the map.
- Build two towers in the upper middle so they can hit the two mana shards in the upper right of the screen. Gem choice shouldn't matter, I did duel bloodbound and mana gather.
- Play as you normally would until the final wave
- I forget which order the waves come in at the end, but basically to cheese it, you'll want to leave one giant enemy alive so you can finish off all of the mana shards on the map. Once you have one giant enemy left, switch the priority of your towers to structures so they will only hit the mana shards.
- Way I did it: built up to two grade 10 gems, combined them to get a grade 11, finished off the shards, was VERY ALERT to take the grade 11 out so it wouldn't melt the poor remaining giant, had JUST ENOUGH to get another grade 11 gem and combined it to get my grade 12, obliterated the giant, quest unlocked!

I'm horrible at TDs though so take it with a grain of salt XD. There's probably an easier method/easier map to cheese it on.
