It's finally here!

I'm loving it so far. The map is much better than the previous games, and I love all the new battle options.

here, scoring has a cap, especially now with capped summon multiplier. So it'll be logical that the formula of a wizard level won't be exponential, but instead polynomial. I am inclined towards square polynom for experience from wizard level, as it's not increasing too fast.

in level based expression perfectly fits level^0.25 with some parameters.

1396 157814700
18 21200
With 2,148,000,000+ exp it will be around 5600 or 5900 level.

Level 5752 is reached at 2,686,010,100 XP

Also, what is the best time anyone can get for making a level 35 gem in maxed difficulty endurance (without any exploits/glitches)? I got one at wave 95... took maybe a little over an hour to get there. I'm curious how early a wave it can be obtained by though, so that you can click through endurance. What is the best strategy to making a high level gem? I didn't go for it until I had enough mana to make a grade 27; I'm wondering if I could have done it faster by going for the grade 35 when I could just make grade 24s or 25s.

The reason I bring it up is that I'm curious if endurance is still beatable within an hour. Pre-1.12, I could finish a max difficulty endurance run in roughly 1 hour, but now it seems like it's going to take closer to 2 hours to finish an endurance run right now due to the HP increase.

In first maxed endurance i start to call waves after 60. It's was not an one-hit killer, need 10-15 hit per kill. so i call 10-15 waves, and w8 till clearing.

What grade gem did you have at level 60 when calling?

Maybe 28 triple red-yellow-lime. It has 50k kills(yep, 1k summon per wave it's average for me) at this wave, min damage for gem was 250k without red. I found that it will be nice boost.

@tackle70: Why are you making G35?
One G30-31 is enough with G28-29 amplifiers to beat the monsters on max settings.
They are Y/L gems of course, and the main gem is G30/31 Y with G1 L.

And now you get 3 times more xp with the full settings. I think it's a good deal for 2 hours work.

...My time is around 90 minutes, but I'm higher level (7000+), so I guess my manapool reaches 224million (my goal) quicker.

@ifju - it's solely based on your "Resonance skill". I suspect that you have it more than 1000%?
Enough grade for win - with at least x1000 critical(28?). And then - resonance. With 900% i was need 33 grade with 8 amplifiers 31.

@Gremlion: you're right, but i have 'only' 400%.

And second point - trap or tower. I prefer towers, so game goes faster(no monsters on screen). With lime-yellow in trap even near entrance notably longer. But need less grade due of trap mastery.

Tower too, random monster priority, and 1x speed
(on 3x the tower doesn't shoot as much as he can - it is based on a frame problem that Peter doesn't want to solve because of possible crashes from G30+)

"Also, what is the best time anyone can get for making a level 35 gem in maxed difficulty endurance (without any exploits/glitches)?"

On an easy field (exp<700) it should be possible by wave 30 without much of a problem.
