I was curious what everyone thinks of the game so far? Likes, Dislikes? Found any bugs yet?

Simple strategy for looming late game:

-Make a dual red/orange level 5.
-Up it until its level 8.
-Make a dual yellow/white, place it behind the or/red to make sure the mana gem has plenty of time to gather mana before creeps dies.
-puts the red/orange to swarming first.
-Always use tower beam on the mana gem and use tower barrage on yellow/white gem. Beam on mana gem will give you ridiculous amount of mana in no time.

Thats it. You need to have enough starting mana to put tower+level gem, the rest can go into skill.

At level 7 the yellow/white already insane amount of damage, level 10 one is enough to kill anything in looming. Yellow will make you do 80% chacne of doing x75 damage and white will upgrade the base damage by a ton.

Make sure to destroy the trap with a gem bomb so you can place walls.

Could be a good idea to enrage swarm waves and use the freeze+beam combo on them, Dont think its needed but it gives extra mana and exp anyway.

I don't have Beam, but I do have Bolt.

Also, WHAT GOOD IS ENRAGING WAVES WHEN I CAN'T EVEN CLEAR THE FIRST FEW WITHOUT DYING?

Just beat field G2, but still can't get that stupid tome chamber open. Perhaps replaying with a little swarmling domination will assist...

You should try to get beam, it helps a lot.

And where might I find that? Somewhere where it's bloody impossible to get past the first wave?

I think its k6, im not sure really, but i remember getting beam before curse. Its already unlocked in V1(the level where you cant haev skillpoints or talismans) so it should be close to that.

Wow, you're being quite petulant towards people who are trying to help you figure out a game.

So im doing a challenge to myself which is completing the game without:

-spending skill points
-enraging waves
-replaying levels
-use battle traits
-using talismans

Not using any of this.

Just completed H4. I was level 16, i skipped 2 stages in previous fields and didint touch the field E at all.

And yet, i did H4 on first try. I also had enough mana to build a tower + a level 4 gem right at begining. That guy from previous pages is lying hard.

And this is why I should never ask for help ever in my life.

Nobody ever gives me a solution that works.

Time to go into lurking...
