Yearn to Learn
I was introduced to Spiral Knights by a long-time friend. It remains the only MMORPG I play. Every day, I seem to learn something new about the game. Trying to acquire the best equipment suited for me to defeat every type of monster and avoid heavy damage and status ailments. Finding out what each SK-specific acronym I don't know stands for. Identifying the best prices to sell materials and equipment at the auction house. Yielding the best attacking strategy in limited spaces. But most of all, it's all about learning to become a team player in any situation. Though I still do noobish things in my execution, indeed "knowing is half the battle." (G.I. Joe)
Thus, the purpose of my SK User Wiki page is to be a learning experience for you and me. Me: learning how to create my own Wiki page using the templates and tutorials available. You: learning some key tips that I have learned so far while playing Spiral Knights, while having the incentive to create your own Wiki page. Enjoy what knowledge I have to offer in the coming days.
If you see an error in my Wiki, you can discuss it via the discussion tab rather than directly edit my page (as any Wiki page can be edited). Some of the info I yield are confirmed via personal experiences playing Sprial Knights (e.g. I actually won a Mod Calibrator in the Prize Wheel one instance) while some are "scientific guesses" based on trends and what I overheard in those experiences. As this is the Internet, please keep everything in good taste.
Thanks and enjoy my Wiki page! :)
Tips
Many monsters drop materials upon defeat. However, there are some "rare" materials that are not dropped by monsters and are obtainable by other means: as a prize box drop, as a prize wheel prize, bought from certain vendors via tokens, earned from specific missions, and so on. This section covers such materials.
While some of the low-star gear can be obtained by purchase, the key method to obtain almost every piece of gear is by crafting. To craft, you need to acquire Recipes. Once acquired and learned, each recipe details the materials, the energy, the crowns, and lower-star gear needed to craft your gear. The main benefit of crafting is to have a small chance of obtaining Unique Variants, which yield boosted stats for the gear crafted. Do note that not every piece of gear can be crafted because no recipe for them exists; thus, these pieces of gear can only be obtained by directly purchasing them via a Vendor or the Auction House.
Recipes may be obtained in a multitude of ways:
- The Hall of Heroes has a majority of the recipes via nine different Vendors. These recipes automatically bind to you upon purchase. Reaching specific missions allows you to purchase higher-star recipes (e.g. reaching Mission 4-1 allows you to purchase recipes up to 2 stars).
- Several Special Alchemy Machines store their own recipes, thus allowing you to craft at these machines without having to purchase the recipe itself. (Materials, crowns, energy, and lower-star gear are still required to craft.) The gear that can be crafted on these machines can only be crafted via these machines. These alchemy machines are specifically located somewhere in Haven or in the Clockworks.
- A few Vendors carry recipes, either a set list or at random. These vendors include:
- Sullivan has fifteen recipes covering five distinct alchemy lines, purchasable via Krogmo Coins...
- Vatel has 1- and 2-star recipes for sale, which are randomly set each day...
- Basil is a traveling merchant that can be found in two places...
- Clockwork Terminals where he has random pieces of gear for sale depending on the Tier...
- Mission lobbies where he has a set of gear available depending on the mission...
View the Basil wiki page for a list of gear only he has.
- Some recipes may be obtained upon completing specific Missions; therefore, there is no need to purchase them (unless you need them urgently). View these specific alchemy paths and which missions to obtain them.
- More Specific Recipe Info Soon!
