Overview

Description:

Warning: This is a Dangerous Mission!

Desna and her Recon Rangers are an elite team tasked with recovering intel from some of the most dangerous levels of the Clockworks. Joining them could lead to great rewards, but it is guaranteed to be a perilous journey!

Spiral HQ has detected a sudden climate shift emanating from deep within the Clockworks. Freak snowstorms and blizzards have begun surging through the depths seeming to originate from an inhospitable, fiendish city known as 'Amu-Sol.' The Recon Rangers have been dispatched to infiltrate Amu-Sol and discover the source of these freezing storms.

Objective:

Discover the source of the terrible blizzards emanating from Amu-Sol.

The topic of this article or section is subject to personal opinion, and does not represent any one absolute truth. If you disagree, discuss your concerns on the the talk page before editing. The left spawner constantly regenerates a Pearl Greaver. Before activating the party button, lure this monster away from the area and leave it alone (do not defeat it). It will remain outside the gate and not cause the squad problems during the fight.

Notes

This mission was introduced with release 2012-08-01.

It is the third Danger Mission made available in Spiral Knights.

Frozen Souls spawn continuously in many areas of the mission when there are two members or fewer in the party.

Chilling Howlitzers are rarely replaced by normal Howlitzers in both depths.

There are a few computers in this mission where you can read about how Devilites had planned to freeze the Clockworks with the support of Maulos. They contacted a mysterious character called Morgral'm. It is unknown if Morgral'm is a Devilite or some other type of monster.

Strategy

Recommended Equipment:

The recommended armor set for this mission is a Piercing/Shadow Hybrid. One popular choice is the Skolver/Snarbolax, considering they both give the corresponding defenses and freeze resistance. Any additional resistance from UVs, trinkets, or perks can potentially make you immune to the wisps and souls throughout the mission. Nearly all the monsters in this mission are weak to piercing. The Flourish and Snarble sets are incredibly useful. The Autogun, Antigua (just the 3* Antigua itself), and Magnus sets of guns are the most useful, although the Magnus is not recommended because it is slow. The ultimate gun by far is either the Plague Needle or the Blitz Needle because their charged attacks can instantly kill most monsters in the mission. However, it is also suggested to bring an elemental gun to get rid of the howlwitzers in the gate arena (See below in the Strategies section for a better explanation).
