Hi all, I'm fairly new to Spiral Knights. In order to fun crowns (which would mean CE) should I just upgrade my gear eveon though it doesn't have any UV? Or should I just keep doing Jelly King runs and make items (that I'll use) to get UV?
I'm thinking it's better to have 4 or 5 star gear asap to effectively farm mats and crowns. Then I can focus on making final UV gear.
Oh yes, I'm currently wearing all 2* gear and a 3* armor. None of them are UVs.
I'm in four-star gear. As I move into five-star gear, I am *also* keeping a close eye out to replace a bit here, a bit there. This seems to be working very well for me - Despite being rather crap at the Jelly King run, I can and do solo in T2 in relative (albeit very, very slow) comfort.
Moving to armor with at least *some* Elemental defense was, for me, the first big shift; if you haven't made that jump already, I recommend it strongly.
