Oh no! Thank you for working on it, I can't wait. :)
Roar of the Snarbolax Release Chatter
Brinks is bugged; each tab shows %item:mtoken_token type (# of token rewards)
"KILL IT AND TAKE IT'S STUFF!!!!"
Oh, video games.
We'll be fixing Brinks as well.
Things aren't going as good as you hoped I take it? ;3
Dear Nick,
I love you.
-Cobalt.
As said before, a Shield that gives a Damage Bonus?
Nice.
When will the fix come?
Beware the Snarbolax, my knight. The jaws that bite, the claws that catch.
It is not quite the Fraptious Day, Alice. Have some tea!
~The Hatter
Snarbie is having performance jitters with so many knights awaiting his arrival. There was even a Magnus sighting.
Yes please.
Spine cone=Replacing my sun shards.

EDIT: also, snarbolax is totally becoming my wallpaper >:3 .
Haha, we call him Snarby internally as well :)
... Actually surprised that the new shield has decent defenses. The 2* version has pretty much the same stats at the Defender, except for the +sword damage. Dunno about any higher-tier versions, because the Basil at D23 had nothing.
We will be rebooting with the fix in 15 minutes.
Thanks for the info Nick :)
out right now!
Edit: The server is not, however. Haha
"Haha, we call him Snarby internally as well :)"
Oh, Nick. That's adorable.
Also, this really brought my day up, thanks Three Rings. ♥
*grumble*
Still can't connect to the server. :<
I can't connect to the server... and also the 'client' isn't updating... like it normally does when there is a bug release...
please fix... i wanna battle Snarby:D
Its out now, update your clients
It's updating now you guys! Try again!
After hitting logging ten times, it's updating finally!
(Actually it wasn't that long, probably they needed to reboot the servers is all)
@Iceni:
Shield bonus is sword only. Useless to gunners.
If it applied the bonus to gunners too I'd be pretty happy, but no.
Also, no, gunners don't have an advantage. Every gunner I know is wearing Nameless armor for the elemental resist. You know, the armor that exactly mirrors what bomb users and sword users get except that they both get fire resist and we get none? Yeah, that stuff.
So tired of getting the shaft from Three Ring because of the style of play I prefer...
This boss is incredibly cool.
The ambiance of the levels and the boss itself are steps towards a direction I really like.
I hope the future content will build on mechanics that emphasize teamplay.

Sing it, brother. Three Rings have had it out for the gunners since day one; their entire plan is to bring the gun man down.
That Snarby be fast and stunning! So hard to catch him in a screenshot at the moment.
Great music!
Just got finished beating the Snarbolax. Great job OOO!!
Great level, great music and a bit of a puzzle in figuring out how to beat him.
Keep up the good work!
Just did a Snarbolax run with a friend and had a great time. The new levels are nicely designed, and the fleeting glimpses of the dread beast are wonderful at raising the tension in the runup to the final confrontation. We were both like "Oh god, did you see that? D:" throughout the Gloaming Wildwoods.
Good work, devs! :D
I love the levels! The Snarbolax made me jump and yelp a few times because I was not expecting it to charge out of nowhere. I did like it's boss fight immensely. Nice strategy! Thank you very much devs! This was quite fun! And STORY STUFF! Makes me happy to see that.
The levels were so great! Snorla-I mean Snarbolax was very hard, and just as cute. :) Thank you! I only have 3 tokens, but I will definetly kill Snarbolax for some more tokens.
awesome job OOO snarbolax was an awesome boss to fight hope to see more like this :)
Am I the only one that went "Callooh! Callay!" at the achievement :P
For future reference, who was the primary designer of this boss? Was it Ian (I am unsure if he is still in your employ)? If so, I would like to shake his hand. Well, not literally.
... Okay, that was a lie. If I could, I would. He and Tyson Hesse were the reason I got into drawing in the first place so many years ago.
It was awesome.
This makes clear that expanding the game to great degree will only make this game better and better. I an a 4* so it was pretty easy, but I can't wait for more. F***YEAHHH BABEHHHHHHH
just beat it myself. fun fight. too easy though (i know its tier 1)
good job guys.
+1 for adding new content, if anyone complains about this they should be slapped. Now I just want to see t5 versions of the new items see if any are worth getting.... shield is tempting atm.
Is Snarbolax based on Jabberwocky?
Maybe if I say Xalobrans it'll inplode :3
Oh man I'm on the road right meow and this thread is making me so jealous! Gah I wanna play.
Thanks Spiral Knights team! I look forward to playing tonight XD
<3 piercing bomb.
Great fight. About as tough on blast bombs as jelly is on guns, in lou of infinite minions getting in the way of shots the bell mechanic makes it kinda hard to place a bomb that doesn't go off early and knock him away from the bell range but if you wait too long you only get off maybe one hit before his shadows are back up. Also not the crown bump we coulda hoped for new players but you only need to run it 3-4 times (10tokens) to get one of the new pieces of gear so between that and cheap AH UV ragecrafts getting out of t1 should go faster then ever. Looked great, even if it's just normal grass platforms under dark graveyardish lighting, the twisting trees and pre-fight sightings of snorby make for a great presentation. Good jorb.
OhmygodIlovehim.
The ambiance around the Gloaming Wildwoods is just great - haunted heart of the deep forest, complete with occasional glimpses of the beast who has earned the territorial rights.
The wolf bells are fun mechanics, and Snarby's just the proper amount of threat.
I imagine if I had only tier 1 or 2 gear, or anyone else in my party, he might be slightly more difficult than he is now, which is perfect.
Either way it's oodles of fun and definitely inspires hope in the game.
I can't wait to test out his gear!
So far I've killed him twice. He's really fun, but he's really easy. Though, there's the problem in that my teammates don't understand how conditional invincibility works. *sigh*
Gates not set yet, but i love how any sane person would look at the Snarbolax and run like mad, but all of us here are
"KILL IT AND TAKE IT'S STUFF!!!!"
