Mana Leech is one of the gems in the GemCraft series. It is colored orange in all games

Mana Leech adds a certain amount of mana on every hit. This is useful to have more mana to banish monsters, as well as building more structures and creating higher-level gems.

A mana leeching gem placed in a trap generates more mana per hit.

Strategies[]

Towers[]

Put orange towers near the start to hit the highest amount of monsters possible. Using a trap, combine a (minimum) Grade 5 orange gem with a Grade 5 red gem for a multi-hit mana farming strategy. Continue adding orange and red gems until it reaches a firing speed of over 700 and a mana sap of over 10 (hiting 6 targets at a time for 60 mana per hit). At this point, the target will yield over 600 mana a second. If this is achieved prior to wave 40, drop up to 15 grade 6 gems in anger on each wave, bringing their hp up to around 80,000. Once they are killed, you'll clear about 900,000,000 in points and level up enough to maximize every skill.

To accomplish the above, it is necessary to have dual gems at full value, orange and red gems at full value, gem combining at full value, and it helps to have starting mana at full value.

Traps[]

Put the orange traps before your towers. In levels where there is only one entrance, line traps right in front of the building. If there are multiple entrances, place orange traps in the squares after the paths converge.

Use this strategy in the following levels:

GemCraft Chapter 2[]

The skill tome required for creating mana leeching gems on a field that doesn't have this gem type by default can be found on field B5.

This game introduces the Beam spell which will drastically increase the amount of mana leeched, especially if points are put into the Beam skill.

GemCraft: Frostborn Wrath[]

The skill tome required for creating mana leeching gems when replaying a field that doesn't have this gem type by default can be found on field Z5 by opening the Wizard Stash in Endurance mode or the Brass Stash in Iron Wizard mode.

The mana leach+beam trick is especially useful in Iron Wizard mode since you can get just enough skill points to put a few into the Beam, Mana Leech and True Colors skills to make this effective, but not enough to use the more powerful strategies which require lots of starting mana as well as higher level skills.
