About Exalt

We at Exalt see our selves as a group of nice people, we mostly enjoy doing clockwork runs but there is a few members who enjoy playing lockdown and blast network and do so regularly. Exalt is populated by both guys and girls, both young and old, some are skilled and some still learning the basics, some are quiet and the others talkative but we all share the same kindness and warmth for each other, we are a little online family. We have occasional guild competitions that we organize amongst ourselves and they usually end up being fun. Exalt is a serious guild, GM's and officers are online regularly and so are most of the members, people are promoted to a rank of veteran based on their skill, equipment and time being in the guild but they get promoted upward based on their personality. We are a helpful kind of people always trying to teach and support our friends in both the battle and equipment choices, we are also providing video tutorials on how to pass the tests and how to handle some enemies in the clockworks. Most importantly we are all here for the fun with a friendly group of people. If you like what you read here and if you haven't found that perfect little commune for yourself, maybe Exalt is the answer.

How To Join

All nice people are welcome to Exalt. Any member of Exalt can ask an officer or a guild master to invite their friend to the guild, if someone wants to join on their own, without knowing anyone in the guild they can send a whisper or a mail to one of the following: Zeeca, Akikita, Shaarmallama, Hayashi-Kuro, Skruzo ( in case they do not get a reply in 24 hours they should try the next person on the list ) or talk to anyone from Exalt they find in haven. Equipment requirements do not exist but getting in without knowing anyone in the guild would be easier if you already have tier 2 or tier 3 clearance.

Guild Rules

Exalts number 1 rule is be nice to and respectful of your fellow guildies and other Spiral knights players, feel free to use the guild chat for any topic but bear in mind that there are children in the guild. Do not do anything that can bring the Exalt name down or get the guild in trouble. Act maturely and don't send random invites to people.

Members who haven't been online for a while might get removed if the guild has no room for new members, lower ranking inactive players will be removed first but any removed member should get in contact with someone from the guild to get re invited when he starts playing again and the guild will do its best to make room for him again. If a member left Exalt on his own and if he did so in a nice manner ( with no insults and raging ) he is welcome to rejoin and take back his rightful place at any time ( if a long time passed since the member left he will then rejoin as a recruit or with a slightly higher ranking )

Starting out in Exalt

Useful information for all Exalt members can be found here on the wiki and on the Exalt website, Exalt forum and on our Youtube channel. Feel free to use them for all your needs. You can make an account for the forum by you're self but for the website you need to talk to a GM or an officer to make an account for you. If you need to do a shadow lair or a run of some other kind use the forum and the website to find a party, in case you want to organize a event ( challenge or a competition or even a get together in the garden party ) you should use one of those 2 as well but consult you're GM's or officers about the event. You should check the wiki every now and then to see the changes on it since the wiki is regularly updated just like the website. Any questions you have, about gear or anything else that troubles you, feel free to ask anyone from the guild for help, for more important matters like equipment upgrades you should ask some of the officers or GM's since they are mostly very well equipped and have tried most of the available gear and there by can suggest the right upgrade for you. Do not hesitate to invite other guild mates to you're parties or ask to join theirs, being shy will get you nowhere :). In case you are too weak to join some mission but you got invited, you should warn the party leader that you are under equipped so he can give you the green light to join. Most of this info was logical and unneeded for most but some are too shy to ask for help so we try to encourage them here and so on.

Guild Promotions

Members are required to be in Exalt for a minimum of 1 week, have a full 3 star equipment set with at least one 4 star weapon and have proven them selves to be nice people, they need to know about the basic damage types ( which type of enemy is weak to which type of damage and which type of damage is their basic damage dealt, example: All fiends deal shadow as their basic damage and all fiends are weak to pierce damage ). They need to have done all tier 1 and tier 2 bosses. After meeting all the requirements a recruit can request to take his test and become a member by passing it, more details about the tests are given in the "Tests" section of the wiki. Becoming a member makes them eligible to join our steam group so after they get promoted they can ask for an invite to the group if they are a steam user.

Veterans are required to be in Exalt for a minimum of 6 weeks. Members wishing to take this test must be a Vanguard rank. After meeting these 2 requirements a Member can request to take his/her test and become a Veteran. More details about the tests are given in the "Tests" section of the wiki.

Officers In Exalt we are happy with the number of officers we currently have to cope with the recruitment process and other duties. So when the positions come up people are chosen by the Officers/GM's to become an officer.

Tests

Members test is done in a T2 arena of the testers choice-Veteran/Officer/GM, (fiend and beast arena's are not used), recruit needs to finish the whole arena without dieing and they need to spawn the 8 gun puppy wave "clean" ( without any other enemies alive at that moment or with only one extra enemy ) , if a recruit doesn't know how to do so he should watch the Exalt tutorial - Members test video and ask their examiner for a explanation for all that isn't clear or not covered by the video. Practice run before the test is recommended. Death or failing to spawn the 8 gun puppy wave clean will result in failing the test and having to wait 2 weeks to retake it. During the test both the recruit taking the test and the examiner are in the arena but the examiner will die at the start and watch the recruit while dead. If a recruit has difficulty passing an arena he/she should ask for help from a higher ranking member, officer is suggested. The whole point of this test is to help those who have problems running the arenas, passing this test will require them to learn about the wave control in arenas which many people do not know about, learning the correct way to do a arena will make it easier on them to run T3 arenas and help them not to kill their fellow party members in arenas by spawning the 8 gun puppy wave during the time while other enemies are alive.


Veterans test is done on D25 ( Depth 25 ) level Firestorm Citadel, the Member taking the test needs to pass this level, he/she needs to complete the level without dieing and all enemies on the level must be dead. During the test both the Member taking the test and the examiner (Officer/GM) are in the level but the examiner will die at the start and watch the Member while dead. It's suggested to view the Exalt tutorial - Veterans test video before you attempt to do your test.


Officers test is done in the arena "The Gauntlet", Veteran taking the test needs to complete "The Gauntlet" without dieing. During this test the GM will be dead and watching the Veteran taking the test.

Shaarmallama's research

FSC Project

At the moment, I am currently trying to calculate comprehensively which side of dept 26 Firestorm Citadel, and if it is significantly different. For this to be viable, I need as much data as possible. I have already acquired all other data I require for this, and the last section I require is the crown count.

The sections that require the crowns to be recorded are between the 3rd party button to the 4th. (Just after the statue which you place to start your choice). The test begins after you have triggered this 3rd party button and stops when you activate the 4th party button.

For this to be as fair as possible I require the people who are helping to collect the data, to kill all enemies, as well as break all items such as fences, torches and Prize boxes(all of which potently drop crowns).

Once you have completely compiled this data, please could you either mail [Shaarmallama] the total number of crowns earned from that section, as well as the route you took (A simple left or right will suffice for this) or send me a tell. The expected number of crowns earned from this section would probably be between 400-800cr. (This will be confirmed with more data applied)

Once completed I'll upload the results publicly for people to see.

For reference:

Left hand side has:

  • 32 enemies
  • 22 Breakables
  • 6 Prize boxes

Right hand side has:

  • 28 enemies
  • 9 Breakables
  • 6 Prize boxes

Do not remove list

This is the list of the retired knights who are expected to make a comeback so they will not be removed from the guild if there is no room for new members, in case you need to be inactive for a longer period of time inform one of the officers or GM's of it so they try and save your spot for as long as possible, in case that isn't possible and you come back to the game not having a guild just contact someone from the guild and ask for a re invite.
