The clockwork terminal at depth 13 is the most profitable one, as it sells 3 star recipes which gain the most profit percentages. All 3 star recipes from Basil cost 4000 crowns, and the Basil-only ones can usually be sold for 7000 crowns or higher in the [[Auction House]].

Crowns are arguably the most important (albeit simple) resource in Spiral Knights. You can buy crystal energy with it, you can buy stuff from strangers with it, you can place bids with it, etc. So, getting more crowns amounts to being able to do more things and buy more stuff. There are many ways to earn crowns quickly and legitimately, and this guide will show a few options.

Legitimate Options

Using these options to earn crowns is completely fair and there are no negative consequences from doing so.

Recipe Selling

This is a very simple way to earn quite a bit of crowns, but there are many things that can go wrong, so be careful. The main idea is to join as many parties as possible before depth 12, buying Basil-only recipes from Basil at the terminal at depth 13, and going back to Haven to auction them off at a higher price and earning a large profit.

Prerequisites

  • Tier 2 access
  • Large amount of friends who do tier 2
  • Member of a guild

Depth 13 Clockwork Terminal

The clockwork terminal at depth 13 is the most profitable one, as it sells 3 star recipes which gain the most profit percentages. All 3 star recipes from Basil cost 4000 crowns, and the Basil-only ones can usually be sold for 7000 crowns or higher in the Auction House. However, to be able to buy recipes from Basil, one must first join the party at depth 11 or earlier. So, it is recommended to join a guild or at least have a large amount of friends who do tier 2 clockworks frequently.

Most Profitable Recipes

This is a list of some quick-selling recipes that are good to pick up:

* This item is particularly easy to sell, as deduced from personal experience.

Potential Pitfalls

  • It is not recommended to buy recipes to sell other than the ones on the preceding list, as many others can either be bought from Kozma or simply are not wanted by a large consumer base.
