Hi, I recently started playing Spiral Knights, and I find it extremely addicting. Though I would like some advice on what to buy, and what's a good setup for a noob. When I say setup I mean like armor, shield, handgun, bombs, etc. I'm looking for decent/not to expensive stuff. So far, I'm looking into getting Cobalt armor, and I have the heavy hatchet, proto armor/shield/handgun, and miner hat. Please, help.

Read it

Alright, I read it, and I will so far the heavy cleaver is powerful but makes my knight sluggish and slow. Also, how do I unlock tier 2, and is the Cobalt Armor any good?

Cobalt is not really

Cobalt is not really wonderful, but good enough to get to Tier2 and easily available. You might already want to invest in some other armor (wolver/demo/gunslinger/...) if you intend to push it beyond 2* but that would probably require that you settle on whether you want to use swords/guns/bombs/combinations...

To unlock Tier2, finish Tier1 with enough 2* gear and go talk to the warden at the entrance. Completely finish that conversation and you'll then be able to access Tier2 (you can see your progress in the... progress tab of your character).
