I think spiral knights should have mid-bosses. And if you don't know what a mid-boss is, it's basically the same level of the Snarbolox(except Dante Inferno, being tier 2). Here are some I've thought of:

-Dante Inferno
Description: Son of Vanaduke, Prince of Fire. A lot like his father, though he is more mobile and aggressive. He summons weaker minions but more so they have strength in numbers.

The Fiery Abyss: a Hot Topic. (made up)

-Prince Sour
Description: Son of Royal Jelly with same abilities only weaker. According to the wiki, he would be the only Jelly allowed to have poison powers. He can send in green giants to spawn but cannot himself. Also he would be accompanied by Caustic Polyps.

Location: The Poison Bog. (Made up)

-Princess Bolt
Description: Unlike the rest of the family she is a Lichen like jelly. With the ability to spawn Quicksilvers and shoot lightning, she is a tough opponent to defeat with elemental weapons. Instead of dying like the other Jelly bosses, she surrenders and allows you to have all her drops. In a different mission, she is more powerful but has no minions. He also as abilities similar to blast cubes and oiler lichen. Master of Fire, when you defeat her she has more and different drops.

Location: The Princess' Quarters (1st time) Field of Fire (2nd time) (Both made up)

-Smashasourus Wrecks
Description: This is something I think should be at the Rescue Camp: a training hall. There would be dinosaur like robots to train with. My point is they're gremlin crafted and go on the fritz. The Biggest, Smashasourus Wrecks, would be the one you train against as a fake boss. You'd have to fight him again, for real though.

Location: Beginning Training Hall (made up, I think)

:o

I'm speechless. Basically all you did was take the bosses, put a label on them as son or daughter, then advertise them as something new.

Hurr

In a sarcastic-implication-you-are-stupid kind of way, at least how I interpret it.

Hey!

I did not! I just thought of suggestions. I doubt you've ever fought or seen a boss.

I'm gonna crack up.

Sadly, I don't know which of us you are talking about. But FYI, I probably saw more bosses than you.

EDIT: Criticism? On suggestions? Well yipeekaiyay! I've NEVER heard of criticism on suggestions. After all, thats not what this is for. -_-

I have some glue and tape if we need it

If my name were "Hurr" I would have ride a hurrse to the sturrble then get in my curr to go to the gurrs sturrtion down the sturrt.

If you honestly expected no one to criticize this nonsense I wish to applaud such lack of knowledge of how this forum works; since it upsets me to see whining I shall instead urinate in your ears.

I was planning to give a full response on why this thread is bad, complete with snacks, but thought against it because there is so little effort that it would not be worth the couple minutes it would take to do so. Also because Artistbma has summed up everything I would crack down on in a few sentences.

You know, even though I am founder of the guild <Crusher of Dreams>, I think I'm gonna sit this one out. Artistbma and Luguiru have basically said what I would have written anyway.

Actually that's not true. There's more for me to say:

1) See this thread for an example of what I personally consider to be a decent mid-boss thread.

2) This is a forum, not a suggestion box. A forum is a place meant for the discussion of ideas. Because you have posted in a forum, expect there to be discussion of your ideas. This discussion can and probably will include criticism.

"-Dante Inferno"
This name doesn't sound like it would fit into Spiral Knights very well. Just saying.
"Description: Son of Vanaduke, Prince of Fire. A lot like his father, though he is more mobile and aggressive."
Doesn't that make him more difficult than Lord Vanaduke? Doesn't that mean this isn't even a mid-boss? What?
"He summons weaker minions but more so they have strength in numbers."
What is he summoning, specifically? Is he summoning Slag Walkers? Is he summoning Slag Guards? What makes these weaker? Do they deal less damage than the ones summoned by Lord Vanaduke? Do they move slower than Vanaduke's?
"-Prince Sour"
This name doesn't sound like it would fit into Spiral Knights very well. Just saying.
"Description: Son of Royal Jelly with same abilities only weaker."
What does "weaker" mean?
"According to the wiki, he would be the only Jelly allowed to have poison powers."
I'm going to just assume you're referring to the cube things, because surely you know Toxigels and Caustic Polyps inflict poison.
"He can send in green giants to spawn but cannot himself."
I think you just accidentally a verb.
"Unlike the rest of the family she is a Lichen like jelly."
Which family?
"With the ability to spawn Quicksilvers and shoot lightning, she is a tough opponent to defeat with elemental weapons."
1) Please describe how shooting lightning would work.
2) Is there any reasoning behind why Quicksilvers and lightning would make something difficult to defeat using Elemental weapons? Just wondering.
"In a different mission, she is more powerful but has no minions. He also as abilities similar to blast cubes and oiler lichen. Master of Fire, when you defeat her she has more and different drops."
I am utterly confused by this. You seem to be describing an entirely different boss.
"I did not! I just thought of suggestions."
Yes, you did think of suggestions. However they were basically the same as existing bosses with added labels.
"I doubt you've ever fought or seen a boss."
You are free to doubt whether Artistbma has fought or seen a boss. However, evidence suggests that Artistbma has indeed seen and/or fought bosses - Artistbma made a fairly accurate statement about how your ideas are basically remakes of existing bosses.
"I did not exactly asked 4 your criticism."
You didn't ask for it, but you're bound to receive it because you've posted in a forum. Deal with it.
