Fairly sure I've given up.

Now THIS is fucking good news. But who'll bet that SOMETHING is messed up anyway and thus the guys who've ALREADY played on Steam while HAVING an existing SK account will get screwed in the process? Inb4 that, I'll be .. well, simply not playing, I guess. |

The current Energy market is dangling between 3000-4000 crowns per 100 Crystal Energy, this is a great opportunity to start playing and grinding up for the event coming up in a week from now! Unsheathe your swords (or gun and bombs) and get that 4* rank! |

So I got this game and I had no idea what I was doing, just like how I am with other games like this. |

Embodiment of Corruption

If you'd like I could join you and show how to play (like a pro), Awl. Just contact me anytime. Edited your list, Omega. On the subject of the Equipment Archive, is a revamp in order? It's looking rather flat and depressing, and not necessarily very organized either. Suggestions or ideas on how to improve it? Or is it just me overthinking this and it's just fine as is? As for those who are closing in to the Tier 3 Clearance, you may want to submit an application for the event slot in this topic to possibly reserve a spot for yourself. Applications in this topic will be overlooked. Been thinking about what would make out the ideal Shadow Master set, and I've figured that it's going to take some serious UV farming to do so. (Not like that's a big shocker.) Been thinkin of a Very High Charge Time Reduction (CTR) Unique Variant (UV) Gran Faust, Acheron and Graviton Vortex. The remaining two points of reduction will be covered by the CTR bonus gained from levelling through 5 and 10, so if I can score a Very High CTR UV levelling up to 10 will get me the Maximum! CTR that I want. The Gran Faust already has an incredibly lengthy charge time, and since that is how I'll mainly inflict Curses, chipping off the charge time is what would make Gran Faust more useful. Also doing the same for Acheron, although it isn't needed as much because the charge time is on average but a faster charge time is useful for pinches that I'm likely to run into in Danger Rooms and the like. The Graviton Vortex is also pretty slow, but that's because it's a bomb and all bombs are charge-only weapons, thus, decreasing charge time increases attack speed. I'd love to spam my Graviton Vortex in a Danger Room with slimes, but in a recent Danger Room run this was not possible as I was constantly assaulted by very fast and powerful T3 Toxigels. This interrupted my weapon charge and rendered me unable to keep using it, a Very High CTR UV would allow me to maximize bomb placement at level 10. When it comes to my gun of choice, if you check the Equipment Archive you will see that it has been changed from Sentenza to Umbra Driver. This is because the Sentenza can not make full use of its elemental advantage due to being a multi-type gun. (Weird, isn't it?) Thus, the Umbra Driver has now taken its place on the list. Unlike my other three weapons on the roster I won't be shooting for a CTR UV on it, because the gun's charge attack is easily outclassed by the Gran Faust's bullet blade and Acherons quick attack rate and power, so instead I'll focus on a Increased Attack Speed (IAS) UV. I've been told that that IAS is incredibly useful for gunslingers because the two shots the alchemer can fire before reload nearly overlap, thus making the reload barely noticable when it comes to firing speed. Next up I will talk about my armour. Now, my armour of choice have not been changed in the slightest, but that doesn't mean I don't want to maximize their functions. The Divine Veil is a decent Elemental/Shadow headpiece and it also offers a Medium Damage Bonus against Fiends, which will help me deal more damage to those buggers. It also has great Fire, Shock and Curse resistance. The Curse resistance is Maximum! with the Deadshot Mantle, while the Shock and Fire resistances remain High on their own. Therefore I will be looking to get either a High Shock Resistance or High Fire Resistance to boost them to Maximum! The Deadshot Mantle, containing a Medium Damage Bonus against Undeads and being the secondary Shadow Defence-provider holds a High Curse Resistance, maxing it out with the Divine Veil. Depending on what Resistance the Divine Veil gets out of High Shock Resistance and High Fire Resistance, the Deadshot Mantle will get the other Resistance that the Divine Veil didn't get. This way, I'd have not only Maximum! Curse Resistance, but also Maximum! Fire and Shock Resistance! The ultimate resistances in the game if you ask me. Now, the gimmick with total resistance is that a Maximum! UV Bonus won't actually set it to Maximum!, only High. This is so that you can't hit Maximum! by getting a Maximum! UV on only one item. To get a Maximum! Resistance you need to have Maximum! on both headpiece and body armour. In that sense, the level of boost (which goes from stage 1 to stage 6, Low-Medium-High-Very High-Ultra-Maximum!) is halved. So when I here say that I'm getting a High Fire and Shock Resistance on my gear, I'm actually talking about getting two Maximum! UVs. Finally, I'm eyeballing a new shield. Now that the Blackened Crest finally has become available for purchase through Brinks with 35 Almirian Seals I'll be looking to get the Crest of Almire. A very good shield with decent Normal/Shadow Defence and Maximum! Shock and Fire Resistance. As a UV is not as desired here as for everything else, I'm not entirely sure if I will even bother with it, not only because I don't know what to get it, but also because I have but one chance for a UV, as the Blackened Crest series start at 4* and ends after the first and only upgrade. If anything, I'm considering getting either Shadow Defence or Freeze Resistance. I don't really have any issues with anything else, and even with a Maximum! Elemental/Piercing Defence Bonus it won't be enough to be worth the hassle. Normal only covers so much for Elemental/Piercing attacks in T2, and attacks are pure as of T3, so getting a Normal Defence Bonus won't make too much of a difference, although I wouldn't complain if I did end up with a Maximum! Normal Defence Bonus. I'm not too concerned about Stun as long as I'm not stunned in the middle of an attack combo and Poison doesn't bother me at all, Sleep is as likely as getting struck by lightning so there isn't much else to think of here. So yeah, been planning ahead. Now to see if I can ever achieve this. (Man, this post is long!) Edited by Shane the Corrupted, Jun 21 2011, 10:07 PM.

Mhm, I play this game too as it's a fun game to play when I'm not doing other stuff. (Doing stuff irl that I gots to do, or watching videos made by people who call themselves 'let's players') I already went ahead and joined the guild thing, in-game name is Boundary. I'm not very good at using forums, so excuse me if it looks disorderly. ^^ Here's my renewed list of stuff I wanna get: Spoiler: click to toggle

If you check the achievements list for Spiral Knights on Steam you will notice two new achievements that are not shown in-game. One of these is called: Terrible Twin Turrets. The description is as follows: "Defeat the Roarmulus Twins." As far as I know, there are no unique gun puppies/turrets aside from the rare Love Puppy and the horrid Golden Puppy. It can't be the Love Puppy and the Golden Puppy is...simply put indestructible. My speculation is that this is a foreshadowing of the upcoming Tier 2 boss. Discuss if needed. I have updated the Guild List to add links to the member-profiles out of boredom. But wait, I left easter eggs! Find them if you want to. |
