I need help with the Green Vial Achievement

[David]

Hey Guys, I really can't figure out how to get this achievement. Can anybody help me? Anything I found so far on the internet wasn't helpful to me.

Thank you guys!

I haven't got it yet but imagine just playing a really low level on basic when you're a higher level wizard should make that easy

Thank you!

I know, it sounds very easy and a lot of people got the achievement, but I just can't figure out how to set up the traps + gems in order to kill the monsters just caused py poison.

Any recomendations would be apreciated, thanks!

Yeah basically you need to keep the traps doing minimal damage. Try blanketing the entire way with g1 traps on a moderately low-level field so that your traps can't kill anything, but the monsters are constantly poisoned.
Also, if you can figure out a way to have the monsters have more armor, that could help as well; poison ignores armor and could kill a monster even if your traps are doing 0 damage to it.

A simple recipe:
Go to F1, build two traps with g2 poison gems, enrage all three waves with 3 g1 gems each (armor 15). This works for me with a skillset of true colors of 9 and traps 12. If your skills differ, you should either adjust the skills or you might have to vary the amount of gems used for enraging.
And, make sure you haven't left any gems in a tower ;)
That recipe gives me 100% poison kills, should be enough.

When you are at a really high wizard level, the Poison Component and Mighty Skills have to be lowered, otherwise the traps will just kill the monsters even if the gems in them are only at grade 1.

I used only 2 grade 1 poison gems in 2 traps in F1, they were about 12 squares apart. I didn't enrage any waves. I had "True Color: 15", "Poison Green: 15", "Trap: 15".

Guys, thank you all so much. I used the strategy from BilboCGL and it worked out perfeclty. Thanks!

@tuckerkao: Poison skills do not affect the direct damage done by the trap, it increases the poison component power.

@j.david.lorenz: You see a comfortable hobbit, glad he could help.

I had to set my poison skills to the right amount. The first time I tried to earn the Green Vial Achievement, some of my monsters were killed by the 2nd trap before the poisons from the 1st trap finished them. Although the poison time was the fixed 9 seconds, the decreasing rates of the monster health varied.

Go to G1 place few traps with pure poison gem. Make a poison-chain hit gem, don't upgrade it, palace in tower over corrupted mana shard and set it to attack structure.When its damage is low enough, upgrade. When damage gets low again, upgrade. This way every few shots you can upgrade a gem. You will hav a gem that have 1-4 dmg and as much poison as your mana lets you. Keep only one gem in this upgrade tower. Every two upgrades - duplicate this gem and place it the front of your traps line. If you do it fast enough you will get the green vial with ease.
