Wrong the orange circle happens when a marked/twisted/possessed monster dies and if it has the healing others ability. If so, a orange beaconlike light will appear for a bit.

I just checked, Chain Hit works the same. It's just displayed differently.

Let's assume a chain hit "length" of 4.5.. This is how many monsters it can hit before the chain hit must stop. Now, since there's a .5, that means a 50% chance of hitting an additional monster along with all the monsters already hit. Chain Hit will never hit an enemy more than once, though.

So, some examples:
6.87 = 6 monsters + 87% chance of seventh monster
1.56 = 1 monster + 56% chance of second monster
3 = 3 monsters
2.42 = 2 monsters + 42% chance of third monster

Hope this helped clear up any confusion on Chain Hit.

ah not the orange circle. to sum the above up.
0.96 means a 96% chance to hit an additional monster.
1.35 means 1 additional monster hit guaranteed and a 35% chance to hit a third monster.

however, this chain hit won't extend across the map. so the chain length also represents a circular range from the initially hit monster.
8.77 would mean 8 additional monsters + a 77% chance for a ninth one, but only within the range of 8.77.

Thank you, this was very helpful.

Okay, I'm seriously tired of always losing on V3.

What should I do?

Once your main gem is level 10. Combine it with a level 10 white gem. If white is not avaible then you will need a second tower.

Other than that keep upgrading your main gem as soon as possible.

Once main gem is level 13, just upgrade gems in amplifiers, here it should like like this at final wave:

You should have much more mana than me because i salvaged some high grades gems and yeah made me loose a lot of mana.

Also some monsters reached my orb becasue i called waves 10 per 10 for most of the level and this gem has no chain hit lol.

Thats fastest way to do it, if you want you can also make mana traps and anger waves, but thats just waste of time considering the amount of exp you will get.

I see several things wrong with this.

1. Gem no have Bloodbound. Why. Poolbound is bloody useless in late game.
2. Y U NO CHAIN HIT?
3. Way too many armor tearing traps, but that's probably necessary.

Anyway, will go back and try this...

Chain hit is useless if you dont enrage waves.
2 level 3 purple will do better than 1 level 4.

You want to get yellow modifier as high as possible.

Look at the amount of hits on my gem, black with this amount of hits is worse than white with level 12 mana pool.

Better, actually - it can be amplified

You people still insist on saying it's different? PEOPLE, LOOK AT THE POST I MADE ON IT.
