@Theonebackthere They didn't hit you? :O They managed to hit me, even when the spear didn't connect!
After not doing a real Clockworks run in weeks, this was quite the struggle. My team and I decided that reviving wasn't worth it in the final area, with the final spawn. That damned Silkwing was taunting us.
Edit: Oh hey Kitty, I see myself xD
I'm looking forward to the new content you made, and much more to come, too! So, think you could work on adding new Blast Network maps? I enjoy Blast Network, but I would say it's time for you to work on some new maps in your spare time. Lockdown maps are cool to play in, too. Keep up the new Lockdown maps, too! Heh. Guess we didn't see a new map being made and added while further working on Stadium, though. That's just unexpected, but funny and amazing. Anyway, I'll be rocking down the Lockdown competition like there's no tomorrow on these brand-new maps! Bring out the best! I'm full of excitement!!
If there was like 50 different mission runs of this Almire content & everyday it showed a different one; if it can't be done over & over then that's the only way hard content will develop in Spiral Knights.
@ below post
I haven't done the Almire missions yet, I'm still trying to reach end-game. Spiral Knights isn't a sequence game in which I stand in one place & click on skills. Firestorm Citadel is NOT EASY CONTENT & I hate when you gamers start blabbing your rubbish ego in which you blame lag & throw tantrums when you die because repetitive things does not mean you have skills. We just know where things will be spawning & appearing in which we have the advantage.

God I hate you guys.
@Nottheking
The only person whining is you, I presume. Everyone else likes it. And you blew a nice thread. Have a nice day, by the way.
@Kitty-Softpaws
Wow, same thing happened for my guild/friends. Everyone was doing Legion of Almire...
@Pokenuevo
Sorry, I worded that incorrectly. I fixed it now and I meant that I take damage from the Almirian Crusaders even when I obviously dodged their attack. My technique for the Silverwing was letting myself die then a party member resurrects me and I demolish it with my piercing sword+temporary invulnerability.
The-Spiral-King, please talk like an adult. And no, explicit words aren't adult words. They're childish. We can't help it if we find something off with a new part to the game. Maybe we want a higher payout. Maybe we want a nerf on the bombies' spawn. Usually these "whining _____" are giving genuine suggestions to further help. Also, what do you mean ">receive new content for free"? This is a Free To Play game, of course it's free content. The only not-free content was OCH, but that was eventually tradable through Steam for CE or Crowns and such.
Oh, and we love you too.
@Theonebackthere Oh ok, that makes a lot more sense. Haha, we were all going for it, but that Almiranian Knight always seemed to get us.
Edit: So people know: I'm not as cynical as I seem above, just felt that I needed to share my opinion to this guy.
@Pokethenewguy
I say we hug him.
Anyways...
This is pretty nice. I loved it on the testing server and on the real server. Only if FSC had zombies to be rezzed by these Deadnoughts. that would be crool (cruel + cool). Wut wud b bttr iz if dat croun paiowt b buffed (still bttr paiowt den jellehking or rawrmus twinz). [Do I sound cool yet? :D]
This is awsome. Wow, I was not expecting this so soon. The only issue is that it might be ground to death also. :\ (I'm looking at you, 30 treasure box level.)
@Light-Duty
I think 3.5k-4k payout would be best but the current payout is fine if you ask me. Since Legion of Almire is harder than FSC, I can see a buff happening or a nerf to FSC payout.
By the way, I spent 10 minutes looking around in the thread for "Nottheking" until I realized it was The-Spiral-King.
@Hargbeast
From the looks of the template on the prestige section, I'd say it'll show up daily like the other prestige missions.
Will the danger missions appear every day in your missions tab, or only occasionally? I would like time to prepare for it by upgrading my gear before attempting.
I did it with a group of randoms had a great run. Of course I knew how to handle the bombies so it was easy pickings outside of that. The Deadnaughts proved to be plenty difficult, especially with the inclusion of bombies by their side. Once I had shield bounced them out of the ring, I found it a simple measure of not letting the crusaders get at me. Which brings me to my next point. Those crusaders. I found they only do charges. Why is that? Every attack is a charged attack and leaves little room to actually land a blow on them. But y'know, this is supposed to be challenging. Not a breeze in the slightest. We handled it with very little amount of revives and reached the end wonderfully. My team adapted quickly to the new enemies and handled some situations better than even I could! Other than payout, I think this should stay the way it is. Otherwise there wouldn't be any danger to these danger missions.
AND DON'T FORGET GUYS, MISSIONS ARE OPTIONAL. YOU ARE NOT REQUIRED TO DO THEM SO DON'T STRESS ABOUT IT! :D
@Theoneinthefront
Sorry for wasting 10 minutes of your life. Here have a cookie.
@Nick http://forums.spiralknights.com/en/node/41975#comment-268501 right...
@Light-Duty
Thanks for the cookie! Is it normal if smoke is coming out of my nose and mouth after eating that?
@Trydeth
I find it much easier to just shoot them while they're shielding because your bullets sometimes pierce through their shield or wait for them to charge attack you then spam shots at them from behind which usually immobilizes them.
"Firestorm Citadel is NOT EASY CONTENT"
I can solo everything except Vana with a Chaos set, newly-crafted Sudaruska, and a Valiance, with only one rev. And I'm really not that great :/
Now, I must say the new danger mission is AWESOME, lots of fun, and hard!
First time I did it in a party of 3, we each had to rev 2 times.
Second time I did it in a party four, we only had 2 revs :D
But yeah still hard :3
EDIT : Forgot to mention what shield I used, which is a Swiftstrike Buckler.
Really cool dungeon, of course I had to solo it : ) Though, it relies of mobs in closed down spaces sometimes, which soloing causes death... at least I could do it with only one revive.
Last spawn was a bit whoa with the respawning healer. Though I now know I should carry my poison bomb with me next time, and problem solved.
All in all, this is what I wanted with the mission system. I hope other dungeons come up soon so we don't begin finding it as dull as repeating FSC over and over... though the challenge implied will make it stand for some time in the "fun side" : )
So awesome. The Bombies (were'nt they called Kamikazombies in the test server?) were hilarious, IMO. I see how OOO make that giant place in the second depth seem like a Blast Network arena with sentinent bombs. :P Almirian Crusaders are absolutely epic. Sort of a mix of a Mecha knight and Trojan wielding a toothpick, if you will. Dreadnaughts just seemed to be reskinned Trojans though. D: But aren't Dreadnaughts those cursed Slag Guards in UFSC?
But I didn't even get past the first half of the second depth, even with a 4 person party and (almost) full 4* gear in the T2 version. :/ Memo to self: Bring lots of knockback weapons.
THIS is how Graveyards should be from now on.
As for the new LD maps, only did mines so far, but the rocket/mine/explosive thingies are so fun to use. Sure, they only do 3 bars of normal damage or whatever, but they're hilarious. Is there something they're for, though? As far as I can tell, they're only fun bonuses that don't do much.
Alright! Let's see how far I can go with my gunner FSC loadout before I die!
This shall be fun!
I am currently unable to join any levels or missions or elevator floors without getting a "Black screen", happened after advancing to a T3 "Crossroads of Adventure". I posted a thread in bug reports, and I really hope this isn't considered spam.
Yup, issue seems to be widespread. Dirigible started a thread in the bug report section on it: http://forums.spiralknights.com/en/node/58289.
I experienced the same with two guildmates in an FSC run. Bascially once you get on elevator, you'll get stuck on loading screen to next depth. But it has already eaten your 10 ce.
I can solo FSC with this loadout:
Full Chaos
Swiftstrike
Glacius
Nova driver
Blitz needle
flavor of the day
2x elite trueshot trinkets
I can do this a few times a day without reviving. Now someone say that fsc is hard...
Go ahead, say it
Edit instead of breathing new life into a dead thread:
@ Bekjan I have not played fsc 100s of times. maybe 70 total, maybe. However, you are partially correct. I did have to get revved the first few times I played fsc and the first couple times in full chaos. I actually do alot better with chaos than my original fsc set of full divine. That is mostly due to offense being the supreme overlord of defense in this game.
'nuff said
It was quite challenging. Especially the depth 25. Hope we get another monsters too, imagine swarm of shock zombies, kats, greavers, devilites, silkwings, bombies and an Almirian Crusader with several totems :).
@Space-Cadet
Your soloing FSC doesn't mean it to be easy, it maybe that you did it hundreds of times and just memorized how to do FSC. I bet you would have revived if you had played FSC for the first time.
