Guild List; Thank you, Speedy, for keeping it updated up until now.

- Empty -
The Guild Masters are the heads of the guild and represent the guild as a whole.

The Officers are the ones who were active when this topic was posted. Frequently helping Guild members out may promote you from a Veteran rank.

The Veterans are the ones who were already a part of the guild when this topic was posted. Frequent activity or gaining access to Tier 3 may promote you from a Member rank.

The Members are Guild members that are already a part of Vagrant Epochers. All Vagrant Epochers members will instantly be given this rank upon entering.

The Recruits are Guild members who joined our Guild, but are not a part of the Vagrant Epochers forum. Because the Guild was initially made for the forumers, they will not be promoted unless they join Vagrant Epochers at some point and become one of us.


So, today (12th of April) I would like to introduce this MMO, Spiral Knights, to the forum. I've just recently found this game, and it's lots of fun.

Well, Shane... What kind of MMO is it?
It is an MMO"RPG" Dungeon Crawler. Why the quotation? That is because it is not your character that levels up, but rather its gear. It's an interesting concept, and I very much like it. How does it work? As you fight monsters and proceed deep into what is called the Clockworks, the artificial planet where everything in the game takes place, you obtain heat which levels up your equipment at the end of each round. I will explain more about equipment later in this post.

Clockworks? Artificial planet? What is this all about?
The Clockworks is the planet where the Order of Spiral Knights is situated. They came across this mysterious planet after the Skylark crashed. The Spiral Order has now stationed themselves on the planet in search of tearium, the material which is needed to restore the power source of Skylark. In the Clockworks you will find big robotic civilians called Strangers. They helped the Spiral Order set up camp and also offer goods and merchandise for Knights who explore the Clockworks. Who built the Strangers, nobody knows. The Clockworks, according to theory, was built by a race called Gremlins. They now roam the depths of the Clockworks and attack passer-by Knights. They are apparently under a leader called King Tinkinzar, but normal Gremlins strangely enough do not get to see their King. The only ones who shares the King's audience are a terrifying group called the Crimson Order. Little is known about the Crimson Order and King Tinkinzar to this date.

Okay, that is all nice and dandy, but how about gameplay?
You would not want me to sit here explaining all that with a giant wall of text, so here, the (outdated) Preview Video.



Now that I've cranked all that up, how about a tutorial? Patient people, please gather around here...

First Steps Tutorial; If you're new to Spiral Knights, I recommend you to read this despite the length of it

Sah! This just about concludes my topic for Spiral Knights. I procrastinated a lot while making this, so that's why I didn't post this the many days earlier. :dunno:

Please leave feedback and discussion about Spiral Knights in this topic.
That is all for now!

Mastadj in game. This game plays so retro-like, it's awesome. Getting a nostalgic feeling from a new game, an mmo no less, is quite the feeling. Even more so when it actually gives you a challenge. <3

Oh, did I mention that the music is totally baller?

Moved here after update.

And I'm guessing on Kiwi and Milk, but I assume that I'm right.
