SLOOMS ARE BACK
IRON BISHOP DEPTH 2
IT'S HAPPENING
Iron Bishop Depth 2 has Shrine of Slumber
GUYS HES NOT LYING. IVE SEEN IT MYSELF, SCREENSHOTS SOON.
@Sirius
The gate came like 15 min ago :P
Its old news now.
On a more sirius note; Does sleep heal?
In unrelated news, an alarmingly high rate of Zee core owners are jumping off tall buildings
My friend mike is trying to jump of a cliff. No mike, NOOOOOO!
More important news, are sleep uv's back?
nope, I was wrong, sleep does heal slowly
I haven't actually seen any zee cores drop yet. Maybe OOO is not destroying their value.
Zee Cores can't currently drop, since there are no Shrines of Slumber at depths where Zee Cores can drop. However, as the gates cycle, this will change.
Zee Core is a 3-star crafting material. You won't see it unless you see a Shrine of Slumber from Tier 2.
That makes me sad, but it still allows us to see the slooms without destroying the value of the Zee cores, I think its fair.
Unless Nick says otherwise, I'm pretty sure that this is just a bug of the now randomly-generated levels.
This happened in the testing server before and OOO patched it really quick. Someone found a Sleep Strata/Depth and was able to access it, I'm pretty sure this isn't intentional.
It might be a different story here with it being a weekend it could be up to a day at maximum. But I'm almost certain that it's a bug and nothing more, don't get too excited.
A friend told me that there were some new...interesting things on spiral spy. *winkwink*
A psa vid about the slooms. It'll be taken down in about three days. So exciting to see older monsters return!

If you're into sk you may want to check out my channel for other content to. :) Laters
I'm taking screens! I'll upload soon! Look at steam profile Xtweeter22x
EDIT: Screenshots are out, but there's so many I'm too lazy to paste their links :P
Sorry, no spoilers. :D
Just in-case Slooms are staying:
*Sleep cannot be reinflicted upon yourself. If you're already asleep, the duration doesn't reset. Once the Knight has woken up, you can be put back to sleep.
*Maximum Sleep Weakness increases the timer to 9 seconds. I don't have Maximum yet but I believe Maximum Resistance is 3 Seconds.
*Slooms inflict moderate Sleep.
*You may be woken up if you have enough Sleep Resistance. I think it's 3 Units of Sleep Resistance
*You heal 0.25 Pips of Health every second after you pass the fourth tick.
God, I'm playing it right now.
Nick, why did you remove it? D: the level is BEAUTIFUL!
Did anyone beside me out of sheer hope go tortodrone hunting in emerald axis levels?
I noticed there's no Arsenal station in that level. I seems, as Glacies said, to be a bug. Daaaw.
Tell me, i am so sad if its a bug. I am presently working on a night shift I will be asleep when coming back home but please tell me they are still going to be there or I defenatly stop playing this game.
The screen outline in the screen outline makes you feel... high. Wanna get energized, brah?

EDIT: nvm... 'two' many ppl have put videos up already!
Video of slooms :D http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EGxgPk3ugtk&feature=c4-overview&list=UUQe...
what da...
I'ma go in.
This easily the best thing that has happened to Spiral Knights in the last 6 months. Yes, better than free elevators, because this isn't tempered by other annoying shenenigans.
I wouldn't go that far. They're interesting levels, but they're not mind-blowing. Sleep seems to have been removed from the game for a reason - buggy and cheap. I can't imagine how trolly a tier 3 sloombargo would be.
Still, the level design of them is interesting.
I wanna play this before the Devs patch it......(noob begging might work) Plz no patchez pl0x me narb me nedz cr form lveel
Playing the level just now made me sleepy... The general atmosphere of the level, plus the music... NAP TIME! On a serious note, at least your Spiral Knight regenerates life after a few seconds. Also, I can see why it's buggy. Your animation breaks when put to sleep abruptly from a source of damage, as there are two animations that occur at the same time from this: The animation of your character flinching from the damage, followed by the sleeping animation.

It'd be funny to see if there will be Tier 2 and Tier 3 versions of the Shrines of Slumber. Oh gosh, the hilarity (rage) that will ensue from every Spiral Knight snoozing. STRONG sleep? Oh lawdy.
Also, if they stay in the game from here out... does that mean our Battle Sprites will get a "caffeine-loaded" (beyond energized) perk of sleep resistance?
If the animation was cleaned up a bit, I'd be completely for a Starlight Cradle danger mission. Just as a regular thing in the clockworks though, I dunno.
and then if you're all still freaking out about these SLOOMS... Here's a fully complete tortodrone to liven up your day a bit moree
