Hello. I am relatively new to Spiral Knights, and I have a few seemingly not-so-obvious questions. I apologize for my ignorance if any of them have been answered elsewhere, as I must have missed them.
- Is every Guildhall the same? If not, how do we change them?
- Are guild Ranks preset? If not, how do we change them?
- Do we need to earn gate-specific Tier Passes in order to instantly jump to a certain floor of a certain gate?
- In general, would it ultimately be better to have [a large bonus on one type of monster], or [a slight bonus on all monsters with a damage penalty on one certain type]. (This question basically sprouted from the Fallen vs. Valkyrie comparison.)
- This is less formal, but... what is the easiest method of heating up Equipment? Solo play before bosses? With bosses? What about team-play; with one other, two others, three others?
Thank you for any answers and/or advice.
