GemCraft chapter 0, supergems demo

Note: This strategy mostly works again in v1.15. The firing rate of the "super-gem" in this video would now cap out at 222 instead of 279, but that's still very fast.

In this video, I demonstrate the "super gem" strategy for GemCraft chapter 0.

Basically how this works is, you build only one gem--a dual red/orange. It should be at least level 3. Then, combine that main gem with bunches of level 1 red and orange gems, using transmutation as needed to get those level 1s. Each combine increases the power of the main gem, even though it doesn't increase its level. Your primary goal is to get your main gem's firing speed up to 279 (assuming you have the relevant skills maxed out). A side goal is to get its max damage up to 1000.

That one gem will be capable of taking on rather impressive forces, as I show late in the video. There, I anger a giant monster wave up to 49 monsters, each with 10305 HPs and 109 armor. It takes a couple of passes to whittle them all down, but they never really stand a chance.

You can build a couple of these super gems and put them in traps to become effectively invincible, even in endurance mode. That's why this strategy breaks the game. :)

amazing dude i keep using these supergems in endurance games and they own. ive made a lvl 15 prismatic gem { right now im playing } with 16614 - 71099 damage 216 range 279 firing speed +376 poison 26% of triple dmg splash radius 3.6 slows 55% for 24.2 seconds 18% chain hit 2.3* 6.5 mana gain 18% to reduce armor by 1 and 5% shock chance totally amazing :D

Ha!  How long did that take to make?

[fuduzan5562]

why not just use C.Engine to crack the score/mana multiplier, and then just make a level 20 gem or something with your earnings? lol.

[phynnboi]

Because you can do this without using Cheat Engine? :D

[BountyHunterSAx]

This strategy does not work at all in V1.15. The amount of effort required is high, and the max firing speed attained is 220~, which is less than the 279 that you can attain with a level 9 gem, and that is virtually guaranteed WITHOUT supergemming in a level 10/11 gem.

It's been nerfed a bit, but 220 is still plenty fast. I agree that they're tedious to make, but you can get one a lot sooner than you can get a level 9 gem, and it'll be working for you the whole while you're building it!

By the way, this is great topic. I was looking for "gem duplication" in 'Chapter 0' and ended here. I'm trying right now. Many thanks and happy new 2012. ²¦¬)

Question: where is the lever#ID and other vilages on gameplay?

[devianb]

I never knew a grade 4 gem could be that powerful. Going to try that out.

[firemario876]

Nice, at what level should I be able to start using this supergem?

i managed to get 1 lvl 20 R/Y/O with 1,2m - 2,6m dmg :D but after lvl 120, it was no use.

[IMZA1793]

That gem is basically a homing machine gun

[magicalwolf8]

the gem craft i play is from armourgames is it the same?

[icanrememberthis]
