It's finally here!

http://armorgames.com/play/10317/gemcraft-labyrinth

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

And has anyone else noticed that when you click on an amulet to view it (amuelts page or after-game stats), that it's bigger than it was originally.

Can say giant only makes everything easier now

Started G13 all bells and whistles and 6000 skill points, but one got past around level 120 (was AFK). So ended that game and did H12 (2 entrances instead of 3 plus a lot less dead space). With resonance at 140% damage, needed a 31 surrounded by 27s for the 9 trillion beasts.

Redid G13 being more aggressive with summoning/manafarming, was mostly set up by level 140 with a level 31 yellow/lime/something squished with 26 in amps around it. Had mana farms (orange/lime/yellow something like 51) up to level 18 by wave 30, level 25 by like 50--I'll try to beef those up faster.

Capped the first two pylons, I'll get the others tonight. But not at the point of Gremlion's 45 minutes to get your final gem in place and ctrl + click yet

How did you make a 31 so fast???? It literally takes forever for me to make it to grade 13 let alone 14.....Is there a trick? Do you make a ****load of G12s and combine?

rriparetti, he has the ability to use 6k skill points, you, 550+ (assuming you did what I said and level'd up). I have +700 mana gain and +600 damage, so I need 27 surrounded by 27's. (27 pure yellow amps and 1/127 L/Y gem. (50/50 L/Y grade 21, fed with Pure yellows)

And I realized now that I'm not good enough to do that 550sp challenge in 6 hours or less, so I can't do the video. I just recommend beating the game first, capping the pylons, and then hitting those endurance guide again

Grade 22s are 128 mill mana? 23 256 mill? Something like that. 32 x grade 23 is a grade 28. Make 8 of those and combine.

Mana farms and keeping a steady stream of creeps over them is easiest. Shoot for a grade 20 orange/yellow/lime trap or just orange/lime by wave 30, amp it with highest gem you can dupe or 1 higher.

256 mill mana is for easily putting together grade 27/28, with enough of the firepower skill, that nukes anything.

Sad, my game siezed up at wave 68 or so. Was at 80mill mana, grade 26 mana farms...not quite to Gremlion standard but pretty close At least I got one more pylon cheesed, the last two start at 10k hp and 20k hp, probably want a few more levels for them.

Oh no worries! I only have 626, still fooling around with endurance D: I was able to improve by ~50 waves (130ish to 180ish) once I found 33/33/33 is bad in terms of percent.

So whoever did the endurance run with 50 points must be a ****ing ****** at gemcraft ;o

There's 33 million easy xp to grab on the first two pylons (d10 and j10), that'll take you to level 600ish (5k skill points). Look up Gremlion's non-premium pylon cheese thread in walkthroughs, it applies directly to premium. If you can survive 150 endurance waves, you should be able to do those

Not yet bored enough to see if I can take a full boat endurance with level 50 skill points.

Here.

250mill mana by wave 64, which is a 30 with 28 amps by 70. Wasn't quite enough for max, upped to 32 amped by 29, it'll probably get a lot easier with more damage skill. Dropped the yellow out of the farm, orange/green kills em anyway

you could drop orange from the farm instead of yellow, because after you hit the HP cap in endurance and manage to pwn em all with your trap, you no longer need mana from the trap.

here i did same runs with pretty low levels(first pylon with 30, leveled up to 50+), but it was not perfect, i just unlocked fields to get "storyline" map.

I don't know what any other way is, but I'll post again if I find one better.

Hi. I'm not usually one for posting on forums, but I'm a bit stuck here. I'm at level 100 and still haven't got the labyrinths at A1 and M13. Can anyone tell me how to get these. What do I need to do? What level do I need to reach? Thanks.
