Ah gotcha. Intelligence and Vitality/Endurance/Whatever it's called seem pretty obvious for what they do...
Though so far I've been dumping jewels all into weapons and not armor. Though elemental damage doesn't help at all unless the monster has a weakness, in which case I think every level in an element is equal to a level in that weapon in general, so... elemental weapons, worth the effort to pump up elemental swords?

Though damn, Diamonds are a pain to get lots of.
I don't know how the math works, but enemies seem to take completely independent amounts of damage from base weapon damage and elemental damage. Each jewel might be worth 100 points of weapon damage for all I know, but I do know that the elemental damage counts for quite a bit.

It's not a flat number, from what i see. It's a multiplier. It adds damage when the element helps, nothing when it doesn't, and divides when you're fighting something that it is weak to.
He sucks if you haven't been grinding the shit out of things. Best recommendation is use as many aquamarines as you have and pimp out a sword to the maximum level you can afford and slap the +1 waters on it. And if you have some spare rubies trick out a suit of armor with fire protection.

I'm not sure if you didn't know, or if your post was just misleading.
Efreet takes zero damage from your weapon unless it has aquamarines on it. You'll be fighting him quite a bit later to get rubies. A weapon with around 250 aquamarines is enough to one shot him.
I just encountered the motherfucking Colossus. It's a goddamn Iron Man
It also has 1,000,000 HP or something, fuck that :x
I'm stuck at the 11th boss
Efreet
My attacks do nothing. What's going on?
Is your katana still fire? Pump it up like crazy, and pump up your magic and strength until you can farm Poseidon (earlier water boss). He's weak to fire, and it shouldn't take much to get him down to a science. He drops a lot of water enchanted gems. You have to buy a new sword (or enchant your dagger if it has nothing else on it) and fill it full of the water gems you get from Poseidon. Then you'll be able to beat Efreet eventually.
You do the same thing with other bosses. Later you'll want to farm Efreet for fire gems to help kill the snow queen.
Should I even change swords? Can I just upgrade my katana all the way?
You'll need more than one sword. Your katana will end up being worthless against some enemies.
At minimum, if you intend to fill out the library, you're going to need three swords. Your primary weapon will be your sword with diamonds in it. Since none of the regular enemies are strong against holy, and several are weak against it, you'll use this weapon for grinding.
Your ruby sword (katana most likely) will probably end up being your second strongest for quite a while, so you'll want to throw emeralds and onyxes in it. It will save you some time later when you're making a weapon to get the hyper armor, and take down the avatar. Once you can grind fairly well with your diamond sword, throw all the money you earn into the katana, and start grinding away for emeralds. Hyper armor is tedious as hell to get, and everything you can put into your katana will help deal with the tedium. The onyxes will be helpful when facing the avatar.
The final weapon will have whatever the earth stone is, and aquamarines. This weapon was probably being used for taking down efreet. You won't really need to pump this one up that much unless you want to fill out the library.
Ok what the hell is up with Necromancer's bullshit push beam attack thing. I cannot evade it at all! Must I finally buy the "No Escape" medallion? Can I disable the effects whenever I want?

I keep thinking "I'll just play this for like five minutes" and end up coming back to my senses an hour and a half later, clickin' away to farm money and gems and such.
I'm at Yggdrasil, the Map 12 boss now. I keep getting killed by its vertical lightning attack.

Yeah, you essentially have to have it for him. Unless I've got a weird bug, it makes his dark attack do nothing, no pushback or damage.
Ok guys, I found a program that will save your clicking finger and prevent carpal tunnel.
1) Download and install this free program: http://www.autohotkey.com/ Use all the default settings.
2) Open AutoHotkey. Say yes to the sample script. It will open up.
3) There is a line that says:
#z::Run www.autohotkey.com
Change it to:
#z::Click
4) Save changes and close the file. Open AutoHotkey again.
Now every time you press the Windows key + Z, it will click wherever the cursor is. Hold it down to click continuously. Perfect for fighting and buying upgrades once you're rich.
Argh, Death is a little bitch and I hate him. It's just like Yggdrasil in that his defense is absurd, except that he just seems to randomly decide when I can and can't hurt him. Grinding Diamonds for him is annoying too, but at least the Ice Queen is giving me a lot of money.

Just a heads up, but you used to be able to tab to an upgrade that you wanted and hold enter to level quickly. I would assume the functionality is still there. At least, I'm pretty sure that's how it was accomplished.
But I do need to set that up. I used to use that proggy in WOW so I could use my two side mouse buttons as shift and control. Pretty solid little utility.
Yeah I've been doing well up untill Death, who I simply can't seem to take down yet. But the snow Queen is pretty durable too, so grinding up Diamonds to get my Katana light'd out (for some reason I'm using my katana as my light sword, Claymore as Fire, Dagger as Water) is proving to be a bit of a pain.
Suppose this is as good a time as any to trick out the Claymore with a ton MORE fire...
Any real point in tricking out an Earth or Wind weapon too? I have an Earth Zweihander and a Wind Scimitar, both very poorly upgraded, but they're there nonetheless.
Well that was fun but wasteful. I whipped up an autohotkey script so I could control my guy with the keyboard and it was somehow more awkward.
I suppose with some tweaks and trickery it could be made okay but it would be less intuitive(like when you enter a battle on the right of the screen but you start on the left so you need the mouse to warp over there quick, you'd need a special button for that). Meh.
Heh I remember playing that game over a year ago. I grinded for hours and was able to kill The Avatar in 6 seconds. I took longer to collect all that shit he dropped than to kill him. I even got to him in the second quest (HARD MODE) but I was to weak to even hurt him... damn fine game, though. Better crack than Diablo 2.
Basically, there's 1-4 variants of every monster type -- usually 4, but some have less. In most cases they're simply tougher than the last kind, though they can have extra abilities sometimes. The fourth tier includes monsters like the Colossus and Ambrosia, and they just have so many goddamn hitpoints it may seem like they're invulnerable.
The benefit is each variant drops an order of magnitude more money than the last.
I'm sure I'm missing something stupidly obvious, but how do you fight the enemies in the stage right after the Lizard Assassin boss? I enchanted one of my swords with light/diamonds, but when I hit them my sword doesn't do anything. Magic does hurt them, but my Cross Napalm takes like 2 or 3 minutes to kill a single enemy. What do I do?

I am very important. I have many leather-bound books and my apartment smells of rich mahogany.

I know that it makes tree monsters drop a fuckton of apples, so I'd assume it affects all drops. I think it makes rare monsters more common too.

I just hope they'd add in a *#### function for buying shit.

Though there's nothing holding you back from having one of each, you know, just cuz.
You'll eventually want dark as well.
But since, you know, I can't stop playing the damn thing again now, I'll keep that in mind.
Grinding on level 14 right now. Can't stop

I won.
It gave me like 11 million. Holy crap.
SniperGuyGaming on PSN / SniperGuy710 on Xbone Live
Just wait till you stumble across an Ettin in area 14, and suddenly find you've gained 80 million + 2 gems.
Now I just need to figure out how to kill the False God faster, since even with ~200 Strength, it's barely denting his health.
Upgrade your intelligence.
Oh, and the spinny energy is pretty good.
SniperGuyGaming on PSN / SniperGuy710 on Xbone Live
Ptolemeaus is my current record on drops. With around 50 Luck that ugly ass mummy dropped 102 million plus 3 Onyxs.
Took me about 25 minutes to kill, but it was worth it.
~ Buckaroo Banzai
I think my best was Geldra, the rarest orc. If I remember right I got like 200 million, and the fight wasn't even very long.
Of course my real best is the Avatar, who drops 12-13 billion and a ton of gems and stat apples.
EDIT: What beats Yggdrasil? Like what element?
