Stop. Reading. Now.
  
*I'm a fairly recent player to the Spiral Knights universe, and as such, acronyms used by veteran players in reference to the game usually go over my head. I'm slightly OCD when it comes to proper grammar in my chat messages, so players who cannot spell correctly drive me insane.
 
  
*I often give my characters Mandalorian names, as I am a bit of a Star Wars nerd.

Please?

The name '''"Jarkiv"''' means ''charisma'' or ''presence''.
  
*The name '''"Beroya"''' means ''Bounty Hunter''.

*With Jarkiv, I had adopted the play style of a Berserker by equipping high-damage/slow attack speed [[swords]] and [[bombs]]. However, I've been finding swords and elemental handguns (in lieu of actual "spells") to be more useful to my particular needs in combat. Combined with my new armor and helmet choices, my character has begun to resemble a Warlock.
  
*Ironically, Beroya used to be my only character, as well as the 2nd most senior officer and wiki editor of the [[Silent Killers (Guild)|Silent Killers]]. Long story short, I deleted Beroya and then recreated him amidst much confusion and ado about nothing. Confused? So am I.
 
  
*With Beroya, I plan to go the route of a Gunslinger by equipping fast attack speed [[handguns]] and [[bombs]]. I prefer weapons that deal normal damage for their universal application against multiple enemy types.
 
  
===Planned Loadout===
 
  
Since I sold all of Beroya's equipment and donated the proceeds to the [[Silent Killers (Guild)|Silent Killers]] (''don't ask''), he doesn't have anything right now. However, I hope to secure the following loadout (or some variation of the sort) for gun-slinging fun:
 
  
{{JarkivEquip|Nameless Hat}}
 
Increases handgun speed. Also the only gunslinger-line hat I liked the looks of.
 
  
{{JarkivEquip|Volcanic Bombhead Mask}}
+
===Killboard===
While there is no wiki page for it yet, this mask is a unique item only available by bribing King Krogmo in [[King Krogmo's Coliseum]] (The only reason I know it exists is because I saw a knight wearing one). If I can get my hands on one, I'll equip it as a helmet costume over my Nameless Hat.
+
  
{{JarkivEquip|Radiant Silvermail}}
+
'''My kill count vs. Bosses and Unique Monsters.'''
Once again, the Radiant Silvermail's defense against Piercing and Shadow compliments the Nameless Hats defense against Normal and Elemental. Will certainly need an armor costume, as these two sets don't really look nice together.
+
 
+
{{JarkivEquip|Volcanic Salamander Suit}}
+
Wile this armor is indeed useful, I plan to use it as an armor costume over my Radiant Silvermail armor. Of course, this depends on my being able to acquire a Volcanic Bombhead Mask to go with it. Otherwise I may go with a Vog Cub Cap.
+
 
+
{{JarkivEquip|Swiftstrike Buckler}}
+
While this shield is only 3 stars and says it only increases your sword attack speed, it also boosts handgun attack speed; helping unload more lead faster.
+
 
+
{{JarkivEquip|Argent Peacemaker}}
+
A fast-firing, anti-undead weapon. Stylish and deadly, what's not to like?
+
 
+
{{JarkivEquip|Plague Needle}}
+
Rapid-fire, anti-regeneration weapon. Good for suppressing large groups of enemies with healers.
+
 
+
{{JarkivEquip|Neutralizer}}
+
Basically a bomb-gun. Great AOE attack that will prove very useful for keeping monsters at a distance. Also useful for loading up bosses with primed charges ready for detonation.
+
 
+
{{JarkivEquip|Graviton Vortex}}
+
This bomb pulls monsters into a central location like a mini black hole. Useful for holding enemies in tight clusters that are perfect for a stream of bullets.

===Planned Loadout===
+
  
Like most free players, I am still working towards my first piece of fabled 5-star equipment. While still a long way off, I eventually plan to secure the following loadout:
+
When the Grey Feather Cowl is combined with Radiant Silvermail, the knight in question gains high resistance against Elemental, Normal, Piercing, and Shadow damage types; as well as [[Fire]], [[Shock]], [[Poison]], [[Curse]], and (thanks to a lucky UV) [[Freeze]].   This makes for a well-rounded resistance to most damage types. An additional low damage bonus against [[Undead]] doesn't hurt either.
  
{{JarkivEquip|Volcanic Demo Helm}}
+
'''{{JarkivEquip|Volcanic Plate Shield}}'''
  
When combined with the Radiant Silvermail, the knight in question gains good protection against Elemental and Normal damage, as well as [[Fire]]; in addition to Piercing and Shadow defense.  This makes for a well-rounded resistance to all damage types. Since I also favor [[bombs]], having a medium charge time reduction bonus doesn't hurt. To match the Radiant Silvermail, I will be equipping a standard Spiral Demo Helm to the costume slot over the Volcanic Demo Helm.
+
Due to Spiral Knights occasional lag, I need a shield I can count on to hold against a savage assault until the connection can catch up. Since I plan on eventually fighting [[Vanaduke]], additional fire defense is a must. The Volcanic Plate Shield offers this, plus defense against [[Stun]]; which should offset the Grey Feather Cowl's natural weakness to stun.
  
{{JarkivEquip|Radiant Silvermail}}
+
'''{{JarkivEquip|Triglav|uv=Charge Time Reduction: High}}'''
  
Some call it a dress. I call it a full-body kilt. Radiant Silvermail provides good protection against Piercing, Shadow, [[Poison]], and [[Curse]]. An additional low damage bonus against [[Undead]] doesn't hurt either.
+
An all purpose weapon for any enemy type. Normal damage is cool that way. Sadly, this one is going to take forever, as [[Basil]] doesn't carry the recipes for this line. Instead I'm going to be forced to grind 300 tokens from the Blast Network PVP arenas.

Since I plan on eventually fighting [[Vanaduke]], additional fire defense is a must. The Volcanic Plate Shield offers this, plus defense against [[Stun]]; a bonus I plan on putting to good use against [[Lumbers]].

For Jelly runs and annoying Gremlin healers. Nothing can quite match its viciousness.
  
{{JarkivEquip|Triglav|uv=Charge Time Reduction: High}}
+
'''{{JarkivEquip|Hail Driver|uv=Damage Bonus vs Gremlin: High}}'''
  
Take the largest most cumbersome sword in the game, change the charge attack to deal [[freeze]] damage, and give it a cool fractured texture, and you have the Triglav. Sadly, this one is going to take forever, as [[Basil]] doesn't carry the recipes for this line. Instead I'm going to be forced to grind 300 tokens from the Blast Network PVP arenas. Here's hoping it's worth it.

While only 4 stars, it's high damage bonus versus [[construct]]s makes it my cup of tea. Those gun puppies better watch their six.

About

Oh hey! You found my page on my alter-ego, Jarkiv. Splendid! I'm not gonna say much here, so feel free to ignore the rest of this paragraph.

Why are you still reading this paragraph? Move on already!

Stop. Reading. Now.


Please?

Jarkiv

Jarkiv
File:Jarkiv Character.PNG
In Game Name Jarkiv
Playstyle Warlock
Guild Delicious Bacon
Other Characters Beroya

The name "Jarkiv" means charisma or presence.

  • With Jarkiv, I had adopted the play style of a Berserker by equipping high-damage/slow attack speed swords and bombs. However, I've been finding swords and elemental handguns (in lieu of actual "spells") to be more useful to my particular needs in combat. Combined with my new armor and helmet choices, my character has begun to resemble a Warlock.

Planned Loadout

Like most free players, I am still working towards my first piece of fabled 5-star equipment. While still a long way off, I eventually plan to secure the following loadout:

Equipment-Grey Feather Cowl icon.png Grey Feather Cowl Increased Freeze Resistance: Low

Equipment-Radiant Silvermail icon.png Radiant Silvermail

When the Grey Feather Cowl is combined with Radiant Silvermail, the knight in question gains high resistance against Elemental, Normal, Piercing, and Shadow damage types; as well as Fire, Shock, Poison, Curse, and (thanks to a lucky UV) Freeze. This makes for a well-rounded resistance to most damage types. An additional low damage bonus against Undead doesn't hurt either.

Equipment-Volcanic Plate Shield icon.png Volcanic Plate Shield

Due to Spiral Knights occasional lag, I need a shield I can count on to hold against a savage assault until the connection can catch up. Since I plan on eventually fighting Vanaduke, additional fire defense is a must. The Volcanic Plate Shield offers this, plus defense against Stun; which should offset the Grey Feather Cowl's natural weakness to stun.

Equipment-Triglav icon.png Triglav Charge Time Reduction: High

An all purpose weapon for any enemy type. Normal damage is cool that way. Sadly, this one is going to take forever, as Basil doesn't carry the recipes for this line. Instead I'm going to be forced to grind 300 tokens from the Blast Network PVP arenas.

Equipment-Acheron icon.png Acheron

For Jelly runs and annoying Gremlin healers. Nothing can quite match its viciousness.

Equipment-Hail Driver icon.png Hail Driver Damage Bonus vs Gremlin: High

I like freezing weapons. Keeps enemies from running around too much. This beauty is like a freeze vial that never runs out; just point and click.

Equipment-Heavy Deconstructor icon.png Heavy Deconstructor

There is nothing worse in this game than being cornered by a swarm of Mecha Knights, Lumbers, and Retrodes in one of the many construct arenas. Due to my growing hatred of this particular monster class, I'm taking my revenge with this nasty piece of work. While only 4 stars, it's high damage bonus versus constructs makes it my cup of tea.
