yay beat the GoE level! I'm lvl 78 now..I've got nothing to do apart from collecting all the amulets and doing other modes..eventually I might try and do what you guys do and try and beat all 228 waves in the final level..
trippie, not gonna burst your bubble, but the final level is near impossible without speedhack or mouse recorder(helps with the arthritis lol)
at least i got close with 3mil damage @ wave 170.. wouldve been more damage but i got bored and tired so i turned speed hack to 5 and called like 90 waves early and sat back... then at wave 175 they started getting alot more life.. and i said i dont want to stay up another 2 hours :O
connerâ¦do not proceed with your current angering plan. Iâve just run the numbers: a 100,000 max gem can do around 50 million damage/wave (1 mill/target), in all. 1 million max damage=500 million damage/wave. 120 waves*500 million=60billion. out of 1 trillion. now, if you can get 20 million firepower by wave 80, 20*60=1.2 trillion⦠alternatively, shoot for 35-50 million firepower by wave 200, so you have an average of 20 million firepower at work. Are you capable of doing this? if notâ¦do not proceed with your current angering plan.
now, I previously thought you were planning to anger wave 91 to 1 billion or so TOTAL hp. if youâre angering it to 1 bill/monsterâ¦.that would also be a bad idea.
the only reason you can get by with ~ 2-3million damage for the 228, is thatâs enough to bring the monster count down to around 300 in time, which can then be safely held by R/C gems. 600 monsters is the absolute maximum holding capacity of R/C traps, and itâs unstable.
Yay:-) Much more fun this time around. I've still under angered but I don't have time to get my anger gems big enough without sacrificing some vitals.
Wave 39 - Start time 8:38 P.M. http://i928.photobucket.com/albums/ad128/Munch_022/GEM%20Game%209/GEMg9_wav39.png
Wave 42 - 42 Anger specs - hard to read because of mana farm ~6.6m pts http://i928.photobucket.com/albums/ad128/Munch_022/GEM%20Game%209/GEMg9_wav42.png
Wave 54 - 54 Anger specs - I know you can read this one :-) http://i928.photobucket.com/albums/ad128/Munch_022/GEM%20Game%209/GEMg9_wav54.png
Wave 57 -57 Anger specs - I ran out of anger gems too many good waves too close http://i928.photobucket.com/albums/ad128/Munch_022/GEM%20Game%209/GEMg9_wav57.png
Wave 59 - 2500 monsters personal record. Should I build some dmg now? http://i928.photobucket.com/albums/ad128/Munch_022/GEM%20Game%209/GEMg9_wav59.png
End time 5:59 A.M.
Arsenal = 600K note: I'm token angering 61-64 so this will be 1m+after that swarm. My guns should have a full plate until then. My arsenal only includes permanent residents and not squatters. 3 X lvl18 = 100K but they're only there until I use 'em.
I juiced (lime) about 10% of my farm and didn't notice any change in my lag so I might take time finish the east side in increments of 9 at a time (three work boards) for a change of pace in between dmg towers
Also this game fixed from that last one my lag at 2500 monsters ~ same 1000 monsters = better than fair less than good.
Trippie,
Feels good eh? How was your score? and how far are you from having all your skill pts? In my experience every time I felt I reached a plateau I discovered something new or learned it in this thread... and got better. You have progressed very quickly. congrats.
Connor,
I hope your game is well. The last pic I saw was around 30 and I'm way behind you (pts etc). I don't know if I'll catch up but I'm going to try...hard >:-E I think CE/MACRO Recorder makes the biggest difference in the beginning (of course where it counts the most) but not so much later on. With the exception of carpal tunnel syndrome which it will always help:-) I hope you get to 228 first so I know whether or not I have to super anger 228...lol? G/L
the plan is basicly staying but ill either drop the 13 hiroshimas on 91 or aton of 18-19s on 54 for even more score
1m gem can do 1.5b dmg per wave, ive tested excessively, lightning, my king, is already a 1.3m at wave 32 so dont worry, im not gonna throw some 1m wimp gem at a wave that immense, if i do proceed ill be serious about my firepower, you know me better than that munch dont you?

that badboy can freeze a monster 96% for over an hour, just calm down munch...old conner has some big toys
im about to double post from reading ur response more thuroughtly
now thats munch! amazing start 20b at 39 and huge mana pool
that wave 42 breaks your score per monster record
wave 54 oh my #%@#$$@#$ god that things almost as scary as mines gonna look like if i decide to bomb nagasaki instead of hiroshima like i origonaly planned
nice mosnters that at 2500, gonna be near 1.5t when tehy pop at 65-70, yes build some firepower for the love of god and murder those things
i cant belive this was a 9 huor time period to rival my 20 huor + game at wave 32
gooood restart, best gemcraft youve ever played and something feels like this is the game
i was thinking about making lighting a twin, then changing the names to fat boy and little man
sorry munch i read that wrong, it was fractal not you that told me to proceed with caution, but yea im pretty good with man(im 15 taking calculus 2 at a local college) and i know my gems limits(doesnt mean i wont anger a wave to literaly exactly what their limits are >=]
wait...are you positive 1 million max damage=1.5 billion damage/wave? If so...then I suppose you have a chance, as 20 million firepower by wave 200 seems to be more reasonable for you than does 50 million.
now, I know i've seen a formula for angering, but I can't seem to find it...do you remember what it is? With that formula-i've been unable to recreate it-I could probably manage 1 trillion with ease, otherwise, I'm trying to find my way around a 7 dimensional space*, blindfolded in all but two.
*grade used, number of grades, total hp, monster count, score per monster. That's 5 variables, 5 dimensions. the other two are mana pool and damage increase, though i've mastered those fairly well.
Hypothesis: that people who are really good at gemcraft are also really good at math.
procedure: message some expert players-lankhr, vesperbot, inthrees-to ask their math skills-and some people who think it's too hard-again, to ask their math skills.
What I hope to gain: if indeed mathmatical skill has an obvious positive correlation to playing gemcraft easily (even before manna farm), then I will finally, finally be able to understand why some people struggle desperately with the first epic of chapter 1, as I can understand struggling in math.
