The gremlin would have different weapons then the knight.
post below more suggestions about this character
Suggestion:New Character Race:Gremlin
It would still be about spiral knights know why?because it has spiral knights in it spiral knights is just the title of the game it doesn't have to be about spiral knights entirely.
We'd need an entirely new game worth of content with all the new armors, weapons, recipes, and mechanics (if they behave exactly the same, why bother), etc to make them competent comapred to regular knights.
I think another race would be very nice.... Hell It would be awesome to be a wolver :O
Gremlin Menders - Wrench Wands and Robes
Gremlin Bashers - Armor and Axes
Gremlin Explosives - Armor and Bombs....
Why not?
Gremlins vs. Knights?
Fight in the Clockworks?
Never mind I said that, Gremlins could be allies with the knights too.
But how would it work, we start at core? At Emberlight? Will Tier 3 be like a tier 1? What will prevent us from getting to Haven and killing everyone? Who will be bosses and enemies?
Seriously will they have anything special? Or be just like knights with different looks and names? If so just create gremlin costumes and expand the wrench wand line.
It would be cool if they made an entirely different game w/ same game mechanics as SK, but you start off in the clockworks, playing as gremlins, etc... And then, the two games could kinda compete w/ each other, like players from SK vs the gremlin version!! (probably not happening, but still...)
There would be equipment for a healer, a bomber, flamer, or thwacker. That would be awesome. Players might meet sometimes in the clockworks (not in the boss battles, but they would meet nonetheless). Maybe they would not be as powerful as a Spiral knight, so the parties would be 4+2. If they met together they could decide whether or not to be friends for the level, or kill each other for a small amount of money from the other players (10% of what they collected from the level, or something. I want a new race :D
Of course in the subtowns their is knights so the gremlins wouldnt even be able to take over the knights or the knights over the gremlins or whatever
Mmm, new classes/races/whatevers...
I would like to play as a devilite. Or a griever. Or a lichen... and then, I could merge with my whole party, and become a giant lichen colony.
Reading this thread is exactly what going mad must feel like.
There will never, ever be healers in SK. Not ever. Never. This is something Three Rings have said repeatedly; there will be no healers, there will be no healing items beyond the extant capsules and heart pads. OK? This will never happen. I would be delighted to believe that this is the last time it will come up, but I would be lying to myself.
You can't introduce additional player races at this point; SK has many thousands of players, who have in many cases paid Real Money to buy stuff for their characters. The Knights themselves are essentially featureless. Current characters do not have any sort of special abilities, and with good reason - SK's gameplay is heavily skill-based. Player avatars are blanks so that your success or failure depends exclusively on how well you use the tools available to you. Everything in the Clockworks, from spike trap timings to passageway sizing to enemy missile speeds, is based on the across-the-board identical baseline characteristics of the Knights. This cannot be messed with. I am making this sound a little more complex than it really is, but come on, this is surely common sense? There cannot be additional player races. It cannot work with the game as it stands. I am honestly kind of startled that anyone would think otherwise. THAT is why reading this thread is like having a nervous breakdown.
I'm personally more concern of the story justification for gremlins. Why would they suddenly turn around and join the spiral knights?
Also so many game mechanics wouldn't make sense anymore, like mist. More gremlin themed weapons and some gremlin themed armors would be nice.
I'm for the Gremlin themed armor. They have some pretty nifty doodads on their side. I wouldn't mind usin' some of them myself. A Gremlin Goggles accessory would be kinda neat, too.
We could finally achieve the sleepy look without havin' to blink!
" Gremlin Goggles accessory"
They have that. The T3 ones at least.
I'm not even going to make a point, becuase this is so absurd that OOO wouldn't even consider putting this into the game. It's not WOW.
I knew it wouldnt work i just kinda wanted to see how mad you guys would get jk :P but I knew it wasnt possible even i said i was going mad.or this is what going mad felt like
We will play a game called Spiral Knights.
And it will not be about the Spiral Knights.
