Heart of Ice

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.

About the Heart of Ice

Long have knights known the deadly depths of Amu-Sol, city of the furious frozen fiends and piercing monsters alike. It is said that the fiends built this city to honor the frozen battalion aspect of Ur. Amu-Sol to fiends is like Haven to the Spiral Order. Amu-Sol is one of the fiends' greatest city, residing in the most deepest and unholiest depths of the Clockworks. Amu-Sol is also a city filled with blizzards and snowstorms like no other in all of the Clockworks. Every knight knows that to go there would be a cold death. But it is said that there is a causer of blizzards named Maulos, an ice-infused trojan that declared himself champion of Amu-Sol and threatens to engulf the whole world in a fierce snowstorm. Of course, his existence and his threat is just a rumor, or is it?

Recommended Equipment

The most essential armor by far is piercing protection armor. If you have any of these, you're good. Recommended piercing protection could be the all-popular (in all of Spiral Knights) Wolver set and also the popular Cobalt series and Quicksilver and Jelly armor. Wolver armor is highly recommended is because it provides intense protection to freeze, but is also high in piercing protection. However, if you are looking for the ultimate piercing protection, the Jelly and Quicksilver sets are literally made for this danger mission. Weapons of piercing are the most important of all. Almost all the monsters in this mission is weak to piercing. The Flourish and Snarble sets are incredibly useful. The Autogun, Antigua (Just the 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 any monster in the mission (mostly). However, it is also suggested to bring an elemental gun to get rid of the howlwitzers in the gate arena (more on that in Strategies).
