I'm happy that Grey Havens has taken over Spiral Knights because OOO did nothing with it, except for gouge players of their wallets. Since this game was always one of my favorites to play i'd hate to see it spiral down the drain (ha). So i have come up with some cool suggestions to maybe help the game improve and be funner for the casual and hardcore player. So lets get right into it.
-DLC/Additions.
*I was thinking there isn't much to do after hitting vanguard and pretty much maxing out your gear. So i had this idea of after achieving max rank there would be a possibility in the story line of flying back to the spiral knights old planet, the one they crash landed from. The monsters there would be super hard and maybe have new looks and designs. from completing the quests on that planet you could get some nutty gear or something special cosmetically. Also maybe you could participate in some sort of raid or something similar with more people then just 4. There would be really hard monsters and such.
-PVP
*The pvp doesn't have much importance and it would be cool if there was more of a currency you could get from pvping that you could use of special items of some sort
*Maybe some different pvp modes and maps

Some modes like capture the flag, something like holding points for a certain time, or a mode i was thinking of along the lines of hot potato except with a bomb.
-Weapons & Armor
*I think there needs to be a bit more expanse in the weapons you can use, keep the sword and gun mechanics but add some variety in there like maybe you could get and Axe or a two handed sword which you cant use a shield with, and as for the gun, you could make something along the line of a bow or some sort of magic staff.
*Also it would be cool if you added some more spec to what you want to be, like if added a staff that heals teammates so you want you could sit back and support.
*Also it would be cool to add some more special abilities more then just charging up your weapon because that gets boring after a while. maybe something along the lines of different weapon types give you abilities that you could use, for a lame example something like a fire sword would give you the ability to throw a fireball.
-Prestige
*I feel like prestige missions don't have much a purpose besides having a little icon. It would be cool to reward the players for grinding prestige
Just some ideas that came to mind while playing, i know grey havens have a lot to do before they add a ton of things. So good luck i guess
-Leviathan
