Overview
Missions provide players with a a structure for navigating the world of Spiral Knights. Each mission features a reward that is guaranteed with completion in addition to the rewards acquired during the mission itself.
Missions range from simple tasks like speaking with an NPC to going on an a major expedition within the Clockworks. One of the key features of missions is that everything is managed within the mission interface. You will never find yourself searching a town for NPCs or left to wonder what to do next. When you’re looking for action, simply open up the mission interface and away you go!
Ready Room
Additionally, the Character Select interface now includes the ‘Ready Room.’ The Ready Room is where your knight chooses where to go after selection. You can chat with friends and guildmates, check out your Social Panel and Event Hub, head in to town or go directly on a mission.
Missions
There are four types of missions: Rank, Prestige, Expansion and Arcade.
Rank Missions
Rank Missions serve the main campaign of Spiral Knights. Comprised of over 80 missions, Rank Missions will allow a player to rise in the ranks of the Spiral Knights. Starting as a lowly Recruit, knights can ultimately achieve the mighty rank of Vanguard.
Rank Missions also feature a new way of acquiring the recipes that you need. In each Rank Mission lobby you will find Basil selling a set selection of recipes that are geared toward the mission you are about to face. Additionally, Rank Missions have you regularly visiting the ‘Hall of Heroes’ where players can see veteran knight loadouts and purchase they recipes for their gear. The Hall of Heroes also serves as a stage for certification, requiring players have a loadout of a set star level to advance, much like the Spiral Warden’s requirements in subtowns.
Prestige Missions
Prestige Missions are offered to you daily and can only be completed once. These missions reward you with ‘prestige’ which acts as a running score attached to your knight.
Expansion Missions
Expansion Missions are bonus missions that can be unlocked with energy. Expansion Missions, like Rank Missions, feature set rewards and can be played as often as you like once unlocked. Some expansion missions are in fact a ‘pack’ of missions and provide you with a version for different tiers that feature unique rewards.
Arcade Missions
Arcade Missions provide you with the convenience of creating and joining parties in the Arcade directly from the mission interface. However, the Arcade must still be visited to deposit minerals.
The Supply Depot
The Supply Depot is a new feature that is connected to the mission interface. The Supply Depot is a place where players can purchase items associated with missions for energy. This includes accessories, weapons, gear, upgrades and even energy packs. Items in the Supply Depot must be earned. Items are added to your personal Supply Depot as you rank up.
A lot of missions are on the way, here’s a quick list of some of the things to expect:
- Braving the Soldier’s Graveyard outside of Haven to pay respects to an unknown knight
- Facing the deadly new ‘battlepods’ that can take the form of anything from mecha knight production machines to poison fume generators
- Rescuing imprisoned knights from a gremlin prison and battling alongside them as you make your escape
- Taking on the ultimate arena in a monstrous bulwark that protects the Firestorm Citadel
- Exploring a mysterious statuary of trojans and discovering their terrible origin
